Orthodontist Serving ʻEwa Beach, HI

Medically reviewed by Dr. David Dung, DDS, MS, Board-Certified Orthodontist.

Dung Orthodontics serves ʻEwa Beach families, including the many military families near Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, with braces and Invisalign® from three board-certified orthodontists. Our nearby ʻAiea office makes specialist care simple for ʻEwa Beach, Ocean Pointe, and Iroquois Point.

ʻEwa Beach has grown into one of West Oʻahu’s most vibrant family communities, and many of those families serve in or live near the military bases along Pearl Harbor. Dung Orthodontics is proud to care for them. While our offices are in ʻAiea and Honolulu, ʻEwa Beach families choose us for true orthodontic specialists, not a general dentist who also does braces, and for a team that has cared for Oʻahu since 1987. We welcome military families and file Tricare benefits, so getting started is easy whether you are stationed here or putting down roots.

Why ʻEwa Beach Families Choose Dung Orthodontics

Several ʻEwa Beach options are general dental offices offering some orthodontics on the side. We are different: orthodontics is all we do, and all three of our doctors are board-certified specialists. For military families with the frequent moves of service life, we make transferring or starting treatment straightforward, and because we file all insurance, including Tricare, there are fewer surprises along the way.

About ʻEwa Beach, the Community We Serve

From Ocean Pointe to Iroquois Point, ʻEwa Beach blends growing residential neighborhoods with a strong military community along Pearl Harbor. We are proud to care for students across the area, including James Campbell High School, ʻEwa Makai Middle School, ʻIlima Intermediate, ʻEwa Beach Elementary, Keoneʻula Elementary, Holomua Elementary, and Iroquois Point Elementary, which serves many military families. Wherever your family is in its journey, a healthy smile is within reach.

Getting to Our Offices from ʻEwa Beach

From ʻEwa Beach, our ʻAiea office at 98-1247 Kaahumanu St, STE 214 is about a 20-minute drive via the H-1, with our Honolulu office at 1600 Kapiolani Blvd a little farther into town. Many ʻEwa Beach families schedule around work or base hours at whichever office is more convenient.

We’re visiting Hawaii on vacation and my daughter’s wire came off. They got us in right away, were incredibly kind, and fixed it quickly. They didn’t even charge us for the visit. We’re so grateful for their help while we were far from home. Highly recommend!
While on vacation in Hawaii, my daughter had a wire come out of her bracket and was in a lot of discomfort. This orthodontist office was absolutely amazing — they got us in within one day and even saw us right when they opened. The staff was kind, professional, and understanding of the situation. They removed the wire so my daughter wouldn’t be in pain for the rest of our vacation and explained that we could have it properly fixed once we return home. We are so grateful for their quick care and compassion. Highly recommend, especially if you’re traveling and need urgent orthodontic help!
I highly recommend Dung Orthodontics (Honolulu office), especially as an adult patient. The office staff is friendly and professional, and it was easy to call and make a new patient appointment that worked with my schedule. Dr. Todoki fixed the issue with my permanent retainer during my first visit. She worked quickly and gently, and I didn’t experience any discomfort. She also provided two treatment options for an issue I brought up during my appointment, and I didn’t feel like I was being upsold or pressured to make a decision on the spot.
Very great service. Dr and staff are very kind and patient. They fixed my smile and kept me comfortable throughout the process. My smile still looks great many years later!
Highly recommend! Great customer service during each visit and very accommodating. Office is easy to contact. My daughter just had her braces removed and the transformation is phenomenal!
Response from the owner:Thank you Reina for your kind words! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience with our office. Here for you and your family anytime!
My son's baby tooth fell out on the plane which was still connected to his braces and they took him in with no questions asked and fixed the problem so we could enjoy our week here for vacation. The dental hygienist was so nice and went out of her way to help us. It definitely shows what kind of staff works here and we can't tell you how much we appreciated it. Thanks again!
Very friendly and accommodating staff. The glue came loose from one tooth for my permanent retainer, my orthodontist is not from here and they still were able to do a rebonding with a good price, and if it still bothered me, I was able to come back for readjustment. I would definitely recommend them.
Thank you Dung Orthodontics!! Great experience! 💫 Super friendly staff that catered to my son’s emergency dental needs. Location was perfect as it was extremely close to our hotel.
I would highly recommend Dung orthodontics! We were here on vacation and my daughter had an issue with her braces. Dr. Tom got her in the same day and fixed the problem. Dr. Tom and the whole team were so very kind, generous and extremely friendly! They turned a stressful situation into a joyful experience!
We were visiting from Australia and my son had an issue with his braces. The team were amazing and were incredibly helpful and very welcoming. Highly recommend them
Great service, friendly staff. Can assist with all your orthodontic needs. They also do Invisalign.
They are amazing… highly recommend.. Very good staff and very professional.
I don’t have the words to describe how thankful I am to Dr. Dung and Sheena and staff! I’m here from Yokosuka, Japan for a medical procedure. I needed help with my retainers and due to the holidays and other reasons, I couldn’t see an orthodontist soon enough. I called Dr. Dungs office and Sheena was AMAZING. She kept me calm and when I came in, they helped me right away. The location is great and parking is easy as well. Thank you Dr. Dung and office Ohana for helping me.
Absolutely great.
Was visiting from Washington state and the retaining software for my braces had degraded and snapped on two of my teeth. After calling around and getting several quick and apologetic denials for an emergent visit from other local orthodontists, Dr. Dung was able to squeeze me in. The visit was timely and the staff and hygienist were helpful and courteous. If I lived on Oahu I would have made them my orthodontist for sure.
Dr. Dung has been exceptional and his entire team's service has been fantastic. I started my braces with another orthodontist and was at risk of losing teeth. Dr. Dung patiently and professionally helped my teeth get back on the right track. The staff are also super nice and gentle. The receptionist always sounds warm and welcome.
Dr. Dung is fantastic! I am a tourist to Hawaii and my braces broke. He squeezed a slot for me on the 2nd day and his 1st question to me was "how can I make you comfortable today?"
We are traveling from the mainland and our daughter had some ortho work on her braces 2 weeks before our vacation started. Long story...to the short version, her teeth shifted (as they were supposed to) but it caused the upper left wiring (back molars) to poke out and was tearing up the inside of her cheek.We still have a week here and a person can only live on smoothies for so long. I did a google to find an ortho near by (plus with already great reviews) and we found Dr. David Dung. I called, they were very nice and willing to see her right away. So off we went and Dr. Dung redid her wiring and put new bands and then trimmed the jagged end. He even came out to talk with me directly and in the end, wished us well for the rest of our vacation. Great staff, great doctor, great experience. We need more people in our society like this. "Thank you Dr. Dung and staff!"
Dr. Dung and the staff are very friendly and professional. Dr. Dung is very knowledgeable and experienced ortho and a kind human being. We were vacationing in Waikiki and my son's braces started bothering him. He not only accommodated us on his busy Saturday to fix the problem also checked his braces for other possible issues. Very thorough in his work. Thank you so mych Dr. Dung! I am obliged. Please visit us if you ever happen to come to Houston.
I highly recommend Dung Orthodontics. Dr. Dung is very thorough he has done amazing work on my son and I. The staff is awesome and very helpful especially Colleen and Lee.
