About Bella Vista Family Dentistry

Your Neighborhood Dentist, Just Steps Away

Our Story

Bella Vista Family Dentistry opened its doors in the heart of South Philadelphia, but the Phung family’s ties to this neighborhood go back much further. For more than two decades, their family has run a local business just blocks away, building the kind of trust that comes from showing up for the same neighbors, year after year. Dr. Anh Phung grew up watching that trust get earned one relationship at a time, and she wanted to bring the same spirit to dental care.

That’s why Bella Vista was built around a simple idea: a calm, easygoing office where families of every age feel at home, from toddlers in for their first cleaning to grandparents who have trusted the same dentist for years. Walkable from nearly anywhere in the neighborhood, Bella Vista Family Dentistry is designed to make good dental care simple, comfortable, and close to home for every generation in Philadelphia.

Dr. Anh Phung, DMD

Dr. Anh Phung founded Bella Vista Family Dentistry to bring a calmer, more personal kind of dental care to South Philadelphia. She built the practice around the belief that good dentistry starts with trust, the same trust her family earned over more than 20 years as neighbors in this community. Dr. Phung’s approach centers on listening first: understanding what makes each patient anxious or hesitant about the dentist, then designing every visit, from the pace of the appointment to the comfort of the chair, around easing that tension. Families are her focus, and she takes pride in caring for patients across every stage of life, from a child’s first checkup to routine care for grandparents. For Dr. Phung, dentistry in Philadelphia should feel less like a chore and more like visiting someone who genuinely knows you.

Committed to Helping You

Our Mission

To give every family in South Philadelphia a dental home they trust: convenient, calm, and centered on long-term relationships rather than one-time visits.

Our Values

Community. We believe good dental care starts with knowing our neighbors, not just their charts. Comfort. We design every visit, from the waiting area to the chair, to feel calm rather than clinical, because dentistry works best when patients aren’t anxious. Convenience. We chose a walkable spot on South Street because access shouldn’t be a barrier to good care, and we keep scheduling simple for busy families. Trust. We’re building Bella Vista Family Dentistry the same way the Phung family has built relationships in this neighborhood for over 20 years: one honest, consistent interaction at a time.
