Dr. Joe Moon

ORTHODONTIST IN OVERLAND PARK & OLATHE

Dr. Joe Moon was born and raised in Kansas by his parents who migrated from Korea in 1976 in search of the American Dream. Hard work and determination allowed them to achieve that dream, giving Dr. Moon the opportunity to pursue his own dreams.

Education

Dr. Moon graduated as the valedictorian of his high school class and, after receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Kansas, he decided to pursue a career in dentistry.

He obtained an Ivy League dental education at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia where he finished at the top of his class and served as president of the class his entire four years of attendance.
