Today we’d like to introduce you to Yu Ting Wang and Faith Coker.
Dr. Wang was practicing general dentistry and noticed the connection from the mouth to whole body health was not usually addressed in conventional dentistry. As a dentist, she sees patients twice a year and takes this as an opportunity to evaluate more than just teeth! She checks into airway health, development in children, and sleep. Growing up in Southeast Asia, Dr. Wang went through her own trials of orthodontics and avoiding unnecessary tooth extractions. Through this experience, she was able to find out alternative ways of correcting crowded teeth and a compromised airway. This sparked her passion to help children avoid the problems she herself experienced and helps adults in the same situation. She has made it her mission to help her patients breathe better, sleep better, and smile bigger!
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
At Molar Bear Dental, we embrace new challenges! Navigating our alternative treatment in a custom way for each patient is always a welcome challenge. It is not a “one size fits all” approach, so because of that we spend a lot of time carefully sequencing our treatment and spending enough time with each person to make them feel comfortable.
Dr. Wang took the challenge of moving the U.S. to pursue dentistry without knowing anyone here, and because of that she has gained a lot of perseverance and drive to help as many people as she can.

Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
At 13 my mom sent my brother (age 18) and I from Burma to Singapore alone. We were challenged to get our visa, arrange travel lodging, and find our way around a new and strange city! We had no internet, no GPS, no phone, so we had to ask strangers for advice and help. It taught me a lot about independence, budgeting, and time management.
