Welcome to our dental family
About Us
At Three Creek Dentistry, we believe that dentistry is about more than just teeth—it’s about people. Our mission is to provide exceptional, comfortable dental care in a family-centered environment, where every patient feels heard, valued, and at home. Owned and operated by cousin doctors who grew up together, we treat every patient like family—and that makes all the difference.

Meet Dr. Vinh Trinh
Dr. Vinh Trinh is passionate about providing meaningful care that changes lives—and that calling is deeply personal. Raised in Falls Church, Virginia, Dr. Trinh grew up in a family that lacked access to dental care, which inspired him to pursue dentistry so that he could help others overcome those same barriers. That commitment has fueled over a decade of compassionate, high-quality dental care.
He earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from Virginia Tech and went on to receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the Medical College of Virginia at Virginia Commonwealth University. Dr. Trinh has now been practicing for 12 years and has earned the distinction of being named Washingtonian Top Dentist 2025 and Bethesda Magazine Top Dentist 2024.
As a provider, Dr. Trinh is especially focused on helping patients feel at ease, getting them out of pain, and guiding them toward long-term oral health through clear, personalized care. He is particularly drawn to treatments like clear aligners, root canals, and extractions—services that either boost confidence or bring powerful relief to patients in distress.
Outside of the office, you’ll find Dr. Trinh spending time with his wife, son, and dog, traveling, or working out. He also volunteers his time, coaching local youth sports teams. He brings the same warm, steady presence into every patient interaction, making sure you feel comfortable and cared for from the moment you arrive.

Meet Dr. Jason Lam
Like his cousin and co-founder Dr. Trinh, Dr. Jason Lam shares a heartfelt mission to make dental care accessible and welcoming for families in his community. He too grew up in Falls Church, Virginia as the child of immigrant parents and has always been driven by a strong work ethic and the desire to help others live healthier, happier lives.
Dr. Lam studied Biology at Virginia Tech and received his DDS from the Medical College of Virginia at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he and Dr. Trinh were roommates. With over 12 years of experience and multiple accolades including Washingtonian Top Dentist 2025 and Bethesda Magazine Top Dentist 2024, Dr. Lam has established himself as a trusted provider known for thoughtful, family-focused care.
His approach is personal, preventative, and comfort-driven—striving not only to treat dental issues but to form lasting relationships with patients. He enjoys creating smiles through cosmetic dentistry and clear aligner therapy, as well as restoring comfort and wellness with procedures like root canals and extractions.
Outside the office, Dr. Lam enjoys traveling, playing sports, and spending time with his wife, three kids, and their dog. His care is a reflection of who he is—approachable, caring, and committed to making a difference in his community.
