Services
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin shells bonded to teeth for color, shape, and alignment improvements. They address chipping, discoloration, and spacing issues while mimicking natural tooth translucency. Patients achieve dramatic smile transformations with stain-resistant, long-lasting results through this minimally invasive procedure.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly without traditional braces. This treatment corrects misalignment through gradual tooth movement, offering removable trays for comfortable eating and cleaning. Most patients see results within 6-18 months depending on case complexity.
All-Porcelain Crowns
All-porcelain crowns restore damaged teeth with metal-free restorations that replicate natural tooth appearance. These crowns eliminate dark gum lines associated with traditional metal-based crowns while providing strength and biocompatibility for long-term oral health solutions.
Composite Fillings
Modern composite fillings replace outdated mercury amalgam restorations with natural-looking materials that bond directly to teeth. These fluoride-releasing fillings restore tooth structure while maintaining aesthetics, offering a safer, more conservative treatment option for cavities.
Restorative Dentistry
Our restorative services address extensive dental damage through crowns, onlays, and partial dentures. We focus on rebuilding tooth function and facial support while preserving natural tooth structure, using biocompatible materials for durable, aesthetically pleasing outcomes.

Report
Dr. Alarcon is unethical. Do not visit him. He told me I had seven cavities that need to be filled. Needless to say, I was very distressed and upset by the news. A consultation with a different dentist revealed that I had not a single cavity. To think that this man was going to needlessly drill inside my mouth is terrifying, and I feel morally compelled to publicly share my experience to prevent others from being scammed.

Report
Questionable cavities After having one cavity in 45 years, going to various other dentists over the years, I went to Doctor Alarcon. Within 6 months time ive developed 5 cavities that he insisted on filling. Subsequently, he found 2 more cavities after that. Because I felt suspicious about his practices I changed dentists. I have not had any cavities in the last 2 years.
