Dr. Lucas Trerice
Dr. Trerice grew up in Olympia where he was voted “Most likely to watch PBS” in high school. He earned his B.S. at TESC, studying pre-med and giving underground tours of the legendary steam tunnel system.
He earned his D.M.D. In the inaugural class of the UNLV School of Dental Medicine, where he was the founding president of the student research club and earned his 15 minutes of fame as an internationally renowned prankster.
Prior to joining the team at Kid’s Dental, Dr Luke taught dental assisting for two years, worked with a children’s nonprofit dental clinic for seven years, and has dabbled in legal consulting. He has been a professional yo-yo instructor and an amateur squirrel whisperer.
Dr Lucas believes that kids should enjoy going to the dentist, and being a big kid himself, he knows how to cater to children. He is excited to be putting his many years of experience in caring for children’s dental needs to use in the community.
Dr. Catherine Choi – Orthodontist
My path to becoming an orthodontist was anything but traditional. For seven years, I had been working as a corporate lawyer. But as I am a compassionate person by nature, I yearned to make more of a direct, personal impact. After earning my Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from the School of Dental Medicine at Case Western Reserve University, I completed my Master of Science in Dentistry (MSD) and Orthodontics Residency at the Center for Advanced Dental Education at Saint Louis University. I am passionate about giving patients the tools to improve their smile and self-confidence. It is the best profession I could have ever hoped for.
