Dr. Chuck Le, DDS

Media Releases

Get to know Dentist Dr. Chuck Le, who serves patients throughout the State of California.

Dr. Le is recognized as a leader in many areas of dentistry. He is the Founder of 7 Day Dental with offices in Euclid, Lincoln, Ladera Ranch, and Laguna Woods, California.

Praised as one of the best multi-specialty dental offices in Orange County, the mission of 7 Day Dental is to provide the most modern, expert and affordable dental care to all patients, regardless of their means; to offer complete dental services, employing advanced techniques, in a family-friendly, caring, and comfortable environment; and to offer a wide range of appointment times and emergency services 7 days a week throughout the year.

Regardless of a patient’s financial status, Dr. Le believes that they deserve the best treatment available. He takes the necessary time with each patient to educate them and explain their options to them because it is his personal and professional conviction that every one of his patients deserves only the very best. 

Through dedication, effort, and hard work, Dr. Lee immigrated to the United States in the 1970s to attain the American Dream. Following an intensive academic education in high school, he entered the prestigious Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry at the University of Southern California, where he participated in the first accelerated Doctorate of Dentistry program, and in 1989, after only six years, he graduated with his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. While this marked the beginning of his remarkable career, it in no way signaled the end of his education or training.

Since the opening of the Euclid office in Anaheim in 1990, 7 Day Dental has grown to a total of four locations in Orange County. The other offices are one more in Anaheim, on Lincoln Avenue, and the most recent offices in Ladera Ranch and Laguna Woods. Dr. Le has continued to keep abreast of odontological advances made through continued professional development and education, which is no mean feat considering the scope of the rapidly developing new procedures and techniques evolving in dentistry. 

Having devoted hundreds of hours to postgraduate specialized education, he studied with the Esthetic Professional Dentistry Residency Program from 2002-2005 in Woodland Hills, California. Additionally, he completed a one-year residency in implantology at the Boston Implant Dental Institute where he qualified under the exacting examination and program guidelines to become a member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry as a certified specialist in dental implantology. 

His training, experience, and pioneering efforts in esthetic dentistry have also made Dr. Le a specialist and a master in the areas of porcelain veneers and dental implants. His professional memberships include the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the American Dental Association, and the Orange County Dental Society. 

For several years, Dr. Le has dedicated his personal time and resources to working with organizations and causes that help the less fortunate, as well as youth development and well-being, both internationally and here. His philanthropy has included his contribution to the disaster relief efforts after the 2004 tsunami in Thailand, and the restoration efforts after major conflagrations in Vietnam. In response to the Fukushima, Japan nuclear disaster in March 2011, he donated all proceeds from new-patient referrals to the ongoing humanitarian efforts to help the victims of the catastrophe. Previously, Dr. Le and Anaheim 7 Day Dental, working through the Giving Children Hope Foundation, donated 20,000 toothbrush kits to the relief efforts for the earthquake victims in Haiti.

At home, Dr. Le spearheaded a team of 14 oral surgeons and 100 volunteers to launch “Dentists Pulling From the Heart Day” on February 13, 2011. This effort was an unprecedented collaboration of dental health care providers who performed free extractions and other treatment for the indigent and those who cannot afford to pay for basic dental care, in order to relieve their pain and treat any infections from neglected teeth, and to raise awareness of the importance of good dental care. “Pulling From the Heart Day” has become an annual event now, held around Valentine’s Day. It is estimated that over 300 patients are treated each year, patients who otherwise wouldn’t be able to receive dental care at all.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy. 

A noted business leader of the Anaheim community, the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce awarded 7 Day Dental the Business of the Year Award in 2006, and conferred the esteemed Business Person of the Year Award upon Dr. Le himself for not only his business achievements, but also for his professional and personal contributions to society in 2010. He also received Recognition from Top Doc LA for Outstanding Achievement.

He and Dr. Christine Chung, his wife, are both active in the Orange County Vietnamese Lions, and in helping American veterans through Corey’s Kitchen, headquartered in Irwindale, California. Through Dr. Le’s donations and the donations of others, Corey’s Kitchen is able to distribute food and household groceries and to provide financial and spiritual counseling to needy veterans from its six locations in the Los Angeles region. Orange County Supervisor, Janet Nguyen, has personally given public recognition to 7 Day Dental and the 7 Day team for the selfless donation of their time and care they made to the community to alleviate those suffering, particularly children.

A devoted husband and father of two children, Dr. Le’s love for children and his concern for their well-being has become an even higher priority in both his professional and his personal life since becoming a father himself, and he continues to provide sponsorships to the Y.M.C.A., as well as being a regular benefactor to several local youth sports teams. 

In addition, he is directly involved with the youth development program, Learning for Life. This outstanding program, established by the Boy Scouts of America, prepares and develops today’s boys and girls into tomorrow’s citizens and leaders.
