Prof. Dr. Kwang Bum Park began his career in 1991 at the dental school of Kyung Pook National University as an assistant lecturer at the department of periodontics where he was awarded a PhD in 1995 with the thesis named The Periodontal Regeneration. In 1993, he opened his private practice in Daegu. At the same time he started seminars for private dentists to teach clinical periodontics and implant dentistry. To date, more than 1500 dentists have completed this course in Korea. From 2000 to 2001, he attended the Department of Periodontics, School of Dentistry, UCLA as a visiting professor. After returning from the UCLA, he gathered a group of dentists with specialist backgrounds to create a dental hospital. In 2002, Dr Park opened the largest dental hospital in Korea called MIR Dental Hospital hosting 70 surgeries, with more than 20 dentists and 120 employees operating at Daegu, Korea. The project was a huge success and so he developed a dental hospital network known as the MIR Network.
