Get to Know

Dr. Travis Nwachokor

It wasn’t until his first filling that Dr. Nwachokor enjoyed visiting the dentist. Although there were tears, he got a Power Ranger watch that completely changed his mind! From then on, he took every opportunity to learn about what dentists can do and fell in love with the profession. After graduating high school, Dr. Nwachokor was accepted into the six-year dual degree BS/DDS program at Howard University and became the first dentist in his family.

Dr. Nwachokor graduated from Hightower High School in Missouri City, TX, then went to Howard University and completed their six-year dual degree BS/DDS program, where he got his Bachelor's Degree in Biology in 2012 and his DDS from Howard University College of Dentistry in 2016. After that, he completed a General Practice Residency (GPR) at Jamaica Queens Hospital in Queens, NY. Since then, Dr. Nwachokor has practiced in Houston, TX, and Los Angeles, CA.

It’s always been a dream of Dr. Nwachokor's to open and operate his own practice. Since shadowing a dentist as a kid, he would envision his practice — video games for the kids, TVs and movies for the adults, giving back to the area where he was raised, great dentistry for everyone, and memorable customer service. Now, at the start of his journey, Dr. Nwachokor gets to do this with the love of his life, give back, and inspire the youth in the area she was raised in!

Outside of the office, Dr. Nwachokor loves spending time with his wife, their mini Goldendoodle, Daisy, family, and friends. He enjoys playing basketball, golf, video games, trying new foods, and traveling when possible.

Get to Know

Dr. Shanna Lim

As a daughter of immigrant parents, Dr. Lim was born in Gardena, CA, and grew up in Carson, CA, a few streets down from the office. She first learned about dentistry from her father and aunt, who are dentists.

Every few years, Dr. Lim and her siblings would go back to visit the Philippines with her father, who would host a dental mission in his hometown. Dr. Lim would help her dad with patient check-ins, post-op instructions, and by facilitating the flow throughout the day. Although Dr. Lim had fun during those dental mission trips, she fell in love with dentistry when she started as a receptionist working in her father's practice after graduating high school. Dr. Lim enjoyed talking to patients, getting to know them, and being able to help them feel and eat better.

Dr. Lim graduated from Narbonne High School, then went to California State University, Long Beach, where she got her Bachelor's in Biology. From there, she attended Howard University College of Dentistry, where she earned her DDS in 2016.

Dr. Lim enjoys talking to people, creating relationships, and building trust. She especially loves to help patients get out of pain and become more confident with their smiles and oral health.

Dr. Lim loves spending time with her husband, their mini Goldendoodle, Daisy, family, and friends. She enjoys trying new foods and traveling to explore the world!
