History
Our History
Chompers Pediatric Dentistry has a long and distinguished history of serving families in our community. Our practice was established in the 1950s by the renowned Dr. Arthur Dugoni, the first and only person in the United States or Canada to have a dental school named in his honor. Dr. Dugoni’s vision and dedication laid the foundation for the exceptional pediatric dental care we continue to provide today.
In 1960, Dr. Charles Bona took over the practice when Dr. Dugoni pursued graduate studies in orthodontics. Dr. Bona dedicated over 40 years to taking exceptional care of his young patients. His gentle and caring approach endeared him to the children and families of our area, and the success of his practice was a testament to his commitment to pediatric dentistry.
In 2003, Dr. Bona met Dr. Kenny Tse, and they instantly felt a strong connection. Their shared views on pediatric dentistry made the transition smooth and seamless. Dr. Kenny admired Dr. Bona's dedication and compassionate care, and he was honored to continue the legacy that Dr. Bona had built. Together, they attended numerous continuing education courses and enjoyed regular lunches, forging a close mentorship and friendship.
After retiring, Dr. Bona devoted his time to his passions, including showing Championship Mastiff dogs and sailing. He remained a valued mentor and friend to Dr. Kenny until his passing in 2018. Dr. Bona’s legacy lives on at Chompers Pediatric Dentistry, where we strive to uphold the high standards of care and compassion that he exemplified.
Our practice continues to honor the pioneering spirit of Dr. Dugoni and the gentle care of Dr. Bona. At Chompers, we are committed to providing the highest quality dental care to children in our community, building on the strong foundation established by our esteemed predecessors. Our history is a testament to our enduring dedication to pediatric dental excellence.
