    Hear it straight from our patients

    We first brought our 3-year-old son for dental care and were so impressed by their patience and attentiveness that my husband and I scheduled our own appointments before leaving. Every visit, we’re greeted warmly and feel truly welcome. Everyone, from general dentistry to ortho, has been wonderful—professional, honest, and thorough in explaining treatments without pushing unnecessary services. I highly recommend this office to anyone seeking quality dental care!

    — L. Quiroz

    We’ve been coming here for 10 years, and they always treat my children as if they were their own family. The best dental care for both kids and adults!

    — G. Roed

    We are so happy with our dental care here. It’s wonderful to find a place that accepts and understands all types of children. My son even told me he prefers San Diego Dental Specialists over his previous dentist! We’ll be back, and we definitely recommend them.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What are the benefits of digital dental technology?

    Digital technology offers faster, more accurate diagnoses, minimizes discomfort during procedures, reduces radiation exposure, and helps patients better understand their treatment options.

    Is digital scanning better than traditional impressions?

    Yes! Digital scanning eliminates the need for messy impression materials, reduces gagging, improves comfort, and produces highly accurate 3D models for better-fitting restorations.

    Are digital x-rays safe?

    Digital x-rays significantly reduce radiation exposure — up to 90% less than traditional film x-rays — while providing sharper, clearer images for your dentist.

    How do panoramic and TMJ x-rays help with diagnosis?

    Panoramic and TMJ imaging provide a full view of the jaw, teeth, and surrounding structures, allowing for comprehensive assessments of issues like jaw disorders, impacted teeth, and orthodontic needs.
