Our Practice
We are devoted to restoring and enhancing the health and beauty of your smile. We use gentle, minimally invasive techniques for long lasting results and minimal discomfort.

As specialists, we are trained to treat the most complex and difficult cases. We make every effort to ensure that practical and sensible treatments are tailored to each individual patient. We pride ourselves in being honest, compassionate, and caring, and we thank you for trusting us with your health and comfort. We treat our patients as we would want to be treated – with respect, transparency, and the highest quality of care.
Provided Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants are the ideal replacement we have for missing teeth. Although there are other options for replacing teeth, dental implants usually offer the best comfort and function. Whether you are missing one or multiple teeth, or have an ill-fitting denture, find out how dental implants can help you.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafts can reverse damage caused by gum recession. Gum recession occurs as a result of many things, including genetically thin gums or bone, trauma from forceful tooth brushing, or improper dental work. Gum grafting can restore the health and esthetics of your gums, and prevent future recession/damage.
Bone Grafting
Bone acts as the foundation for your teeth and dental implants. Bone can be lost around teeth due to periodontal disease. Bone grafting can be used to regenerate bone around your teeth. If you have missing teeth, bone grafting can be done to regenerate lost bone to support a new dental implant.
Tooth Extractions
Teeth may need to be extracted for many reasons: tooth decay, fracture, infection, periodontal disease, etc. We do our best to save your teeth and only extract them when there are no other treatments available to save the tooth and the long-term health is compromised.
Crown Lengthening
Crown lengthening is a procedure where we reposition the gums to expose more tooth structure. This can be performed to instantly transform a “gummy smile.” We can also perform crown lengthening to help save teeth with deep decay or are badly broken down.
Periodontal Disease
From non-surgical periodontal maintenance and scaling and root planing (deep cleanings), to surgical open flap debridement and regenerative bone grafting, we provide all phases of care to help you manage periodontal disease and bone loss.

Prevention and Patient Education
We are true believers that long term health results from preventive care, early detection/treatment, and working with our patients as a team. Maintaining oral health requires professional cleanings and examinations in our office – including checking for oral cancer and taking x-rays to evaluate the underlying bone. However, no matter how important these in office visits are, we can only see you every few months. What you do at home every day is vital to the success of the treatment we provide and for the long-term health of your teeth, gums, and implants. That’s why we make sure that we evaluate your home care and provide the necessary training, education, and tools for you at every visit.
Uncompromising Safety
Infection control in our office is extremely important to us. Surgical procedures should be completed in a clean environment to minimize the risk for infection. To protect our patients and ourselves, we uphold strict sterile protocols to prevent cross contamination. We have enhanced protocols for COVID-19, using standards recommended by the Orange County Department of Public Health (OCDPH), California Department of Public Health (CDPH), California Dental Association (CDA), American Dental Association (ADA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC).
New COVID-19 protocols include having patients wait in the car until ready to be seated to minimize waiting room occupancy, facemask requirement for all team members and patients, hydrogen peroxide rinse for all patients, sneeze guards at the front desk, and minimizing paper forms by switching to paperless/digital forms. The office is equipped with two H13 HEPA filter which removes 99.9% of airborne particles down to 0.1 microns.
A Positive Experience
Every patient is a unique individual, and our team is dedicated to providing you with personalized care to ensure the best experience and success. We understand you may be uneasy or anxious seeing the dentist, and we do everything we can to ensure you have a positive experience with us. We offer oral and intravenous conscious sedation for those that need a little extra help to feel calm and get through treatment with ease. For patients that may be losing teeth, we do our best to provide same day teeth and temporary restorations, so you leave our office with a confident smile. We specialize in placing immediate implants at the time of tooth extraction for new teeth in a day to minimize the number of procedures and appointments you need to get the smile and function you want.
