Why Choose Us?

What makes you different than any other dental practice I can visit?

The combination of high-tech and one-on-one dental care really sets us apart.

We are extraordinary in our level of dental expertise, high tech equipment and materials, and best of all for our patients, we have a policy of seeing just one person at a time, so you get our undivided attention.

After just one visit, you’ll understand why you’ll feel so well cared for.

I really do not like visiting the dentist, is there anything you can do to help me relax?

Absolutely. Dr. Bass is certified in Oral Conscious Relaxation which may be the option you’ve been looking for. While under the effects of oral relaxation, you’ll relax deeply.

We see many patients who describe themselves as dental phobics but who have received the treatment they want and need in our San Luis Obispo office through the use of oral relaxation.

Your Questions

What precautions do you take to ensure patient safety?

We scrupulously guard your health and safety with our state-of-the-art sterilization and disinfecting techniques. We provide protective eyewear for you during your treatment, and all members of our dental team wear protective gear to safeguard your health.

I want my front teeth to look better, but I do not want to wear braces. What would you recommend?

Veneers could be a possibility, since we can use them to cover chipped, stained, discolored, or even slightly crooked front teeth. We use Lumineers, a brand of veneers made from extremely thin layers of porcelain that can be applied without anesthetic and with minimal or no loss of enamel from your existing teeth. Call our office at 805-543-4266 to find out more.

What payment methods do you accept?

We want to ensure that your dental care is affordable, so we provide a variety of options: cash, check, major credit cards, and long-term financing through CareCredit.

How does the doctor keep up to date on all of the current techniques and materials?

Dr. Bass is extremely interested in keeping up with the latest and greatest advances in dentistry, so he takes many hours of continuing education courses each year. That means our patients benefit from the latest breakthroughs in materials and treatments.

How can I safely whiten my teeth?

For the safest and most effective results, we recommend professional-strength teeth whitening. We use the one-hour Rembrandt teeth-whitening system, which can provide up to 10 shades of whitening in one treatment.

Crowns, veneers, onlays, inlays, and partials…where can I learn more about these procedures?

Talk to us. Dr. Bass offers a free consultation appointment where you can hear more about the various techniques and materials that we can use to help you get the smile of your dreams.

What is Smile Design?

Smile design is the process of transforming a smile that you’re not happy with into the lovely, attention-grabbing smile that you’ve always wanted. Working with models, X-rays, and photos of your current smile, Dr. Bass will carefully craft a new look that meets your expressed desires and that also adheres to the rules of symmetry and balance for your facial type and dimensions. A smile designed under this careful, painstaking process will flatter your face.
