Services
Periodontal Exams
Comprehensive evaluations to diagnose gum disease and oral health conditions. Our exams include X-rays, oral cancer screenings, and personalized treatment planning. Early detection helps prevent progression of periodontal issues.
Dental Implants
Permanent solutions for missing teeth using titanium posts fused with jawbone tissue. Implants support crowns, bridges, or dentures, restoring function and aesthetics. We ensure long-term success through precise placement techniques.
Bone Grafts
Procedures to regenerate lost bone tissue in the jaw for implant support. We use advanced materials to stimulate natural bone growth, enhancing structural integrity for restorative treatments.
Gum Grafts
Surgical correction of receding gums using donor or autogenous tissue. This protects tooth roots, reduces sensitivity, and improves gum aesthetics while preventing further recession.
Crown Lengthening
Surgical adjustment of gum and bone tissue to expose more tooth structure. This enables restorative work for damaged teeth and enhances smile appearance through precise contouring.

This is the first time in my entire existence that I seen a provider so uncaring for his patients. Greed is written all over his face. Terrible work , I don't recommend this orthodontics to anyone. All those great reviews, it must be from his staff. If you need orthodontic work looks else where, terrible place horrible dentist. He should be reviewed by the American Dental Association. I learned my lesson when I was told that this should be the last place to schedule an appointment for braces. So many complaints by patients, I don't understand how this place is still open.

Report
Easy to setup and have a short consult ($70), but after 5+ calls and emails in the week following the appointment, I have been unable to receive any response from their office (I have been trying to request a copy of the consult notes). Their voicemail box is also full quite unprofessional.
edit: Their office was coincidentally closed the week I tried to contact them. They fulfilled my request promptly once they returned. Recommended to change their voicemail greeting when the office is closed for vacation.

Remarkable doctor with tremendously helpful staff. This is how a dental office should run and treat its clients. they make visits there stress free. And thank you Dr.Ostrer for taking time to educate me on gum disease. She answers all questions & concerns with patience and detail. She is a perfectionist and she takes great care of her patients. From Gum grafting to implants, I can't imagine getting a higher level of quality care, than from this great team.
