Dedicated Care from Dr. Min

Dr. Min Seong Kim - known to his patients as Dr. Min - brings a unique blend of clinical precision and heartfelt connection to each appointment. Born in Seoul, South Korea, Dr. Min’s path to dentistry began on the ice rink, where his hockey coach and mentor first inspired his career path. That early influence, combined with his passion for science and service, still shapes his dedication to patient care today.

After moving to North America as a young student-athlete, Dr. Min completed his undergraduate studies in Biology at Stonehill College and went on to earn his DMD from the prestigious University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine. He then served in the Republic of Korea Army with the United Nations Mission in South Sudan, where his experience in peacekeeping operations further deepened his values of empathy, discipline, and resilience. He later pursued advanced education in general dentistry at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry.

Dr. Min believes that dentistry should serve both the tooth and the person. He calls his care philosophy “Heart to Teeth” (H2T) - a sincere, patient-first approach that honors not only physical health but also emotional trust. He continues to invest in education through programs like the Kois Center (2024-2026) and holds certifications in advanced implant surgery, soft tissue management, Botox and dermal fillers, and aesthetic dentistry techniques. He is also a proud member of the Korean American Dental Association.

Known for his attention to detail and gentle communication, Dr. Min is committed to ending negative dental experiences. Whether treating emergency situations or helping patients plan long-term preventive care, he ensures that each visit is thorough, transparent, and respectful of your goals and comfort.

Outside the office, Dr. Min stays active with hockey, golf, and a regular fitness routine. He’s also passionate about giving back, supporting both local and international volunteer efforts whenever possible. Through bloomindental., he envisions building not just a clinic, but a community built on trust, education, and meaningful care.

Modern amenities and advanced diagnostics, designed for you

Our technology and amenities were chosen with one goal in mind: to enhance your comfort and precision of care. At bloomindental., you’ll experience dentistry that’s both high-tech and human-centered, from accurate diagnostics to patient education tools.

CBCT 3D imaging

We use a Cone Beam CT system for detailed, three-dimensional imaging. This allows for more accurate diagnoses, precise implant planning, and comprehensive evaluations of bone, nerve, and tooth structures, all in a low-radiation, patient-friendly format.

Intraoral scanner

Our digital intraoral scanner allows us to create highly accurate 3D views of your bite and teeth, no messy molds necessary. It also helps us perform occlusal analysis, design better fitting restorations, and track changes in your oral health over time.

Patient education monitors

TV monitors at each operatory allow us to clearly show images and videos during your visit. We’ll walk you through what we see and explain your treatment options using real visuals, so you can make confident decisions with full understanding.

Beverage station

We want you to feel relaxed from the moment you walk in. Enjoy a refreshment at our beverage station while you wait, it’s a small touch with your comfort in mind.
