5.0

By far the best experience I have had at a dentist office. Dr. Violet gave me a second opinion after I had been told I had 8 cavities by another doctor. Turns out I don’t have any. Taniya performed a deep cleaning on me and it was quick and painless. The ladies at the front desk are very friendly and professional and the office is clean. Highly recommend!!

5.0

The dental clinic is conducted by Dr.Giron and several quite experienced and well qualified assistants in the field of dental hygiene and other technically oriented areas. Dr. Giron often performs procedures that are usually being considered as tedious and rather extra lengthy process. she provides the highest quality dentistry in shortest time, along with having the trust and comfort of the patients. Dr. Giron uses all the necessary tools and the assistance of two well experienced and knowledgeable HC under her conduct. Alondra welcomes me in every time I come in with a big smile and remembers my name. She always asks how I’m doing and makes me feel seen, heard and very welcomed. I would like to acknowledge their practice skills and the capability of all the providers in performing any procedure of dentistry Nasser Sionit

5.0

I was heading down to Encinitas for vacation from LA and was having some severe molar pain. They took me in the next day as an emergency walk-in. They took care of my issue, I was better in a couple days. I found the entire team including hygienist Taniya, xray person, front desk and the dentist, Dr. Lao to be very helpful and pleasant. I would certainly go back if/when I’m in town.

What is the Mouth-Body Connection® ?


The Mouth-Body Connection® refers to the link between oral health and overall health, and the role that the harmful bacteria and inflammation in our mouths play in chronic, systemic disease. That’s why it’s time we talked about more than your teeth. Our office prioritizes your overall health as it relates to your oral health. When we care for your smile we’re also looking out for your entire self.
