INTRODUCING DR. CHRISTINE HONG

The University of Washington School of Dentistry is pleased to welcome Dr. Christine Hong as Professor in the Department of Orthodontics.

Dr. Christine Hong received her undergraduate degree in Chemistry from Cornell University, followed by her dental education at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine. She completed her orthodontic residency at the University of California, Los Angeles, where she went on to join the faculty and started building a career rooted in clinical care, teaching, and research.

Most recently, Dr. Hong served as Professor, Interim Chair, and Program Director in the Division of Orthodontics at the University of California, San Francisco, where she led the residency program for seven years. During that time, she guided meaningful growth in the program — including faculty development, cultural renewal, a full clinic renovation, introduction of emerging technologies, and deeper alumni engagement. Under her direction, the program achieved exceptional resident outcomes, strengthened interdisciplinary partnerships, and increased its national and international visibility. She is proud of the residents and colleagues who made that work possible, and of the community they built together.

Dr. Hong is widely recognized for her translational research in craniofacial regeneration, temporomandibular joint biology, and emerging orthodontic therapies. Her NIH-funded work has advanced understanding of the epigenetic regulation of stem cell differentiation and its role in craniofacial development and regeneration. Her clinical scholarship has also contributed to contemporary approaches in miniscrew-assisted orthodontics, MARPE, and digital orthodontic technologies.

As an educator and mentor, Dr. Hong has had the privilege of working alongside many residents, students, and early-career investigators over the years. She believes deeply in fostering environments where people feel empowered to grow, push intellectual boundaries, and find shared vision in their work. A principle she returns to every morning — relationships before tasks — reflects what she has come to value most: the connections, trust, and sense of community that make academic life genuinely worthwhile.

Outside of work, Dr. Hong finds joy in scuba diving, concerts, hiking, cycling, and as much time outdoors as possible. She has set an ambitious personal goal of visiting a new country every year, fueled by a love of travel, cuisine, and learning about different cultures. She is also a devoted but inconsistent (not improving!) student of mindfulness and yoga. We are delighted to welcome Dr. Hong to the University of Washington School of Dentistry and look forward to the mentorship, scholarship, and energy she will bring to the Department of Orthodontics and the broader community.

Fields-Joondeph Endowed Faculty Fellowship in Orthodontics

Recently, Henry Fields and Don Joondeph created the Fields-Joondeph Endowed Faculty Fellowship in Orthodontics, intended to support faculty with funding for research, meeting expenses, and other activities. In appreciation of their support, we would like to highlight both of them in this issue of our newsletter.

Interview with Henry Fields, Class of ’77

by Sam Finkelman

1. What inspired you to pursue dentistry?
I always knew I wanted to pursue a career in healthcare. When I went to Dartmouth College, I started on the pre-med track like many of my classmates, but over time I began thinking about what path would truly fit me. During my junior year, I realized dentistry combined the things I enjoyed most—working with people, applying science, and using my hands in a practical way. That realization made the decision feel natural. As I explored dental schools, I spoke with several dentists who encouraged me to consider returning home to attend the University of Iowa College of Dentistry, which was undergoing exciting changes at the time. They recently hired a new dean. It felt like the right place to begin my career in dentistry. I ended up completing my pediatric residency at the University of Iowa, then moved to Seattle for orthodontic residency at the University of Washington.

2. Looking back, what aspects of the orthodontic program at the University of Washington most shaped your professional development?
The most valuable aspect of the orthodontic program at the University of Washington was the breadth of clinical experience. We treated adolescents and adults, did some early treatment, and had exposure to surgical orthodontics. We also learned about TMD and orofacial pain. That wide scope provided a strong foundation for practice. The program also emphasized interdisciplinary treatment and research. We spent a lot of time discussing the literature, which encouraged critical thinking and problem solving. I appreciate that approach to learning.

3. Were there specific faculty members, who had a lasting influence on you?
Several faculty members had a lasting influence on my training, particularly Dick Riedel, Don, Peter, and Vince. I worked closely with Vince on my research. Because I knew I wanted to teach, I also began collecting teaching materials using Riedel’s post-retention cases.

4. What drew you to academics?
I applied for an AFDH teacher training fellowship, and they agreed to send me to the University of Washington. They paid my tuition and provided a $6,600 annual stipend while I completed my training. The funding came with a commitment: after graduating, I would spend five years in full-time academic teaching or repay the support. For me, that was never a question—I already knew academia was the path I wanted to pursue. I’ve always loved learning. From grade school on, I was curious and excited by new ideas. An academic career allowed me to combine that passion with research and teaching. The university environment was stimulating—constantly challenging, collaborative, and full of discovery.

5. What contributions during your career are you most proud of?
I am especially proud of two contributions during my career. The first was working with Bill Proffit and Larry Moray on the study “Prevalence of Malocclusion and Orthodontic Treatment Need in the United States: Estimates from the NHANES III Survey”, which provided important national data on orthodontic treatment need. The second was contributing to the textbook Contemporary Orthodontics, from the first edition in 1986 through the most recent edition in 2026. These projects had a large impact on orthodontic education and the profession.

6. What are some of the biggest challenges and opportunities facing orthodontic education today?
In my mind, the biggest challenge is balancing technology with science. We’re great at adopting new tools, but often lack consistent, evidence-based standards for evaluation. Innovation is important, but it must be paired with rigorous research and standardized evaluation. Otherwise, we risk embracing new technology before we truly understand its effectiveness.

7. How did you meet Don? What motivated you and Don to establish the Fields-Joondeph endowment?
When I was accepted into the program, Dick was the department chair. By the time I arrived—or shortly afterward—Don had taken over as chair. He worked in the clinic and also taught seminars while I was in residency. During residency, I served as the class representative, which meant I met with him regularly—probably about once a month. We would talk about what was happening in the program. I’d bring issues or updates from the class, and he would ask questions about how things were going. Because of that role, we ended up spending quite a bit of time together, and we got to know each other on a more personal level. After I graduated, we would often run into each other at professional meetings. Whenever we did, we made a point of catching up—usually taking a little time to talk or share a drink. Over the years, that connection grew into a lasting friendship. I wanted to do something meaningful for the department that had given me so much. Greg suggested partnering with someone, and when I reached out to Don, he was on board. Together, we wanted to give back and acknowledge the positive impact the institution had on our lives.

8. What impact do you hope this endowment will have on the department?
The endowment provides essential support for our faculty, enabling them to pursue research, enhance teaching, and strengthen our residency program. By offering reliable, ongoing funding, it creates opportunities for both faculty and residents to grow and thrive.

9. Why is alumni involvement so critical to the success of orthodontic programs?
Alumni involvement and donations are vital because institutional priorities and budgets can change over time. While a university may shift focus based on trends or funding pressures, alumni support provides stability, resources, and flexibility that ensure the program continues to thrive. Alumni involvement helps maintain excellence and the long-term success of the program.

10. If you could give one piece of advice to young orthodontists, what would it be?
Always be evidence-informed. Stay up to date with research, question trends, and let scientific evidence guide your clinical decisions.

11. What interests do you fill your time outside of orthodontics?
Outside of orthodontics, I enjoy motorcycling, woodworking, and photography. I rode motorcycles for about 40 years, owning a range of bikes. I took memorable summer trips across the country and commuted by bike when the weather allowed. Woodworking has been a lifelong passion that started early. My father owned a lumberyard in a small town in Iowa. Being around this as a kid sparked an interest that stayed with me. Over the years, I’ve built furniture, clocks, and pens.

Interview with Don Joondeph, Class of ’71

by Jennifer Mirabelli

1. What first inspired you to pursue dentistry, and ultimately orthodontics?
I was raised in a family that was health care oriented. My dad was a pharmacist but, truth be known, he really wanted to be a physician. World War II, his service as a pilot and a family in waiting derailed his plans to go back to school. Instead, he joined his dad in the pharmacy and eventually purchased the business. My mom was also in the medical field with a degree in nursing. I am the second of four boys in our family; two of us are orthodontists while two are ophthalmologists. One might say that we were destined to be doctors!

2. Who were the mentors that most influenced your early career? Drs. Alton Moore and Dick Riedel were my primary mentors and significantly influenced my career. Al was the founder of the Orthodontic department and first Chair while Dick was one of the first faculty hired by Al and the second Chair of the Department. With their guidance and support, I was honored to be the third Chair.

3. What drew you to teaching?
Al Moore and Dick Riedel sponsored a two-year fellowship in orthodontic education and research. I applied for this fellowship and was the initial fellow. This program consisted of courses in the school of education to prepare an individual for a career in teaching. Research methodology was also an integral part of this program.

4. What contributions during your teaching and/or leadership years are you most proud of?
My proudest accomplishment is my time as department Chair from 1975 to 1984, as I strived to maintain the excellence of the graduate experience at the UW Orthodontic Department.

5. What kept you passionate about orthodontics for so many years?
I have been passionate about orthodontics because of the very positive nature of creating beautiful smiles and having the opportunity to change lives for the better. Each patient is different, so the process of diagnosis and treatment planning is varied and often challenging. Of course, teaching at the graduate level and interacting with faculty colleagues is always stimulating.

6. What is the Fields-Joondeph Endowment and what do you hope to accomplish with this fund?
The Fields-Joondeph Endowment is intended to enhance the University’s ability to recruit, retain, and/or provide professional development opportunities for faculty in the Department of Orthodontics and, secondarily, to provide strategic support for the Orthodontic Department.

7. If you could give one piece of advice to young orthodontists, what would it be?
Advice to young clinicians: Practice evidence-based orthodontics.

8. What interests have filled your time since retirement?
I am enjoying spending time in sunny Arizona. Still teaching orthognathics and mentoring graduate student research projects at UW via Zoom, and participating in faculty activities. Lots of fun visits from family in Seattle as they hunt for the sun.
