About This Provider

Dr. Alan Young earned his D.D.S. from the University of California San Francisco, one of the nation's most respected dental schools, after completing an undergraduate degree in Molecular and Cell Biology at UC Berkeley. Following a General Practice Residency with the Department of Veterans Affairs, he pursued advanced specialty training, earning a Master of Science in Orofacial Pain from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, a dedicated postdoctoral degree focused on diagnosing and managing jaw pain, facial pain syndromes, TMJ disorders, and related conditions. Dr. Young holds Diplomate status from the American Board of Orofacial Pain (Certification Number ABOP1313), the specialty's highest clinical credential, with active standing documented since 2011. He practices in Garden Grove, California, serving patients throughout Orange County who experience persistent facial pain, jaw dysfunction, or conditions that have not responded to general dental care. His foundation in molecular biology at Berkeley supports a precise, science-based diagnostic approach to the complex cases that define orofacial pain specialty practice.
