I have been a dentist for 20 years. I am highly trained in advanced restorative treatments, dental implants, cosmetic and esthetic dentistry, and laser dentistry. I enjoy keeping up with the latest and greatest in dental technology. Most recently, we were the first office in North County to add the latest VaTech 3D cone beam scan- by using less radiation and higher accuracy, we can give you the best care possible. We also added iTero 3D imaging scanner, allowing us to make your care more comfortable and understandable.

What an amazing experience...wonderful, efficient, friendly, super knowledgeable staff, top tech equipment and technique. The exam rooms are the most beautiful I've ever seen- ultra clean, very comforting, almost like being in someone's model home. They have a relaxing video of an aquarium that is very calming. What I like the most is they took the time to examine all of my teeth, not just the the one problem tooth. They showed me all of my teeth in 3D...it was incredible! They really want to look at the whole picture which i was truly impressed with. I am terrified of dental work but now I am looking forward to getting my dental health back in shape. Thank you Ocean Ranch Dentristry

Its always a pleasure having an appointment at Ocean Ranch Dentistry. You always feel welcome. Adrianna at the Front desk and Candise who performed the teeth cleaning are always friendly, respectful and good to talk to. And Dr. Tran takes always time to explain all the procedures and options and f course he's a great dentist. I am glad to be back. Thanks

Walked in the door and was greeted friendly, by name. Waited for my appointment that started on time, exactly at 4pm. Watched Netflix during my x-rays and cleaning. Had a wonderful conversation with my dental hygienist and the doctor was quick and efficient. I left feeling better then when I arrived for a late afternoon dentist appointment.

All the staff here are super nice and friendly. Victoria at the front desk is sporting a big smile and happy demeanor when you walk thru the door. Super helpful in verifying benefits and explaining them. Everyone here seems to enjoy their jobs and provide efficient and competent services from dental work to teeth cleaning. Great job everyone! Candice and Dr Lee are a great team! I also wanted to mention that they have the latest technologies, comfortable office, and convenient parking too. I've had lots of dental work done and in different cities and States, and this office is an example of a well run dental practice with competent and friendly staff. Appointment scheduling was very easy too and they made availability for evaluation of my cracked molar. Thanks guys! Keep up the great work and smiles!

Not recommended. The Drs are great in this office, too bad they hired terrible help to manage it. Adrianna and Victoria are not professional and speak to the customers in a very rude, unprofessional manner. I highly recommend the Dr.'s give their staff a lesson in professionalism.

I recently made an appointment here about a month ago and I have been very pleased with this dentistry office! They are very friendly and happy to address any concerns patients may have. They are very organized and thorough with each job. I feel comfortable in their hands. The dental assistants and doctors are quick to finish my appointment, without me feeling like it was rushed. I strongly recommend this dentist office

First class office, first class treatment of patients, clean office, cheerful staff at the front and the back of the house. Had oral surgery and no pain the next day! They work with you on comfortable payment plans and the workmanship is quality! Easy parking too and they see you right on time!

Victoria at front desk is very friendly and customer service oriented. Hygienist here do a great job and the doctors are not pushy. They suggest what you might need but no pressure to proceed. They also check with your insurance first not like my previous dentist where you get a surprise bill.
