Sage Dental of Alafaya
Dr. Carolyn Nguyen, a distinguished dentist based in Orlando, Florida, has been committed to her profession since her graduation from Temple University School of Dentistry in 1999. Her path to dentistry was shaped by an early exposure to the field during her involvement in a Buddhist youth group. It was here that one of her leaders, then a dental student, ignited her curiosity and interest in dentistry. This pivotal moment inspired Dr. Nguyen to start volunteering at a dental office, where she discovered a passion that has remained at the heart of her career.
With over two decades of experience, Dr. Nguyen is known for her warm and compassionate approach to patient care. She finds immense joy in making people laugh and smile, a philosophy that she integrates into her dental practice. For Dr. Nguyen, dentistry is not just about treating teeth; it’s about enhancing the quality of life for her patients. Her dedication to her craft is evident in the way she treats each patient with personalized care, ensuring that they feel comfortable and valued.
Outside of her professional life, Dr. Nguyen is a proud single mother of two grown children, who she describes as the greatest joys of her life. She balances her career with her personal passions, which include practicing Buddhist meditation—a discipline that helps her maintain mindfulness and compassion in her daily interactions. Dr. Nguyen also loves traveling, particularly with her daughter, exploring new cultures and cuisines. In her downtime, she enjoys the escapism of K-drama and Chinese dramas, and she’s an avid poker player, finding excitement in the strategic nature of the game.
Dr. Nguyen’s infectious laughter and vibrant personality are often noted by those who know her, traits she credits to her family’s genes. Fluent in both Vietnamese and English, Dr. Nguyen is able to connect with a diverse patient base, offering exceptional care tailored to each individual’s needs. Currently, she practices at Sage Dental of East Orlando, where she continues to make a positive impact on her patients and the community.
