What to bring
- Your ID and insurance card (if you have one)
- A list of any medications and health conditions
- Any questions or concerns about your smile
No pressure, ever
You’ll leave with a clear plan and honest priorities — never a hard sell. We’ll help you understand your payment and insurance options up front, including Denti-Cal and Medi-Cal and our membership plan. New patients are always welcome, and se habla español.
