Our Dental Services

Dental Implants

Dental implants represent the pinnacle of tooth replacement technology. Our state-of-the-art implant solutions can replace missing teeth and restore your smile's functionality and aesthetics. Unlike traditional dentures, implants are anchored directly into the jawbone, providing a stable and permanent foundation for replacement teeth. Implants improve the appearance of your smile while preserving jawbone health and supporting facial structure.

Invisalign

Invisalign clear aligner therapy is a modern, discreet solution for straightening teeth without the need for traditional braces. We use advanced technology to custom-design nearly-invisible aligners that fit your teeth precisely, gently moving them into their desired position over time. Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing for easier eating and cleaning, and offer a comfortable fit with minimal impact on your daily life.

Prevention & Education

Preventive care is the cornerstone of lifelong oral health. At Kearny Mesa Smile Center, our approach to care empowers you with the knowledge and tools necessary for maintaining a healthy smile. From routine cleanings and exams to personalized advice on home care and nutrition, our team is committed to helping you prevent dental issues before they arise.

Read Our Reviews

I never write reviews but it was through great reviews that I found this place and I’m so glad I did. Dr. Cortes is incredibly knowledgeable, fair, and proficient. I had bounced around so many dentists before I found Dr. Cortes and it has been the best decision I’ve made for my teeth.

Recent Patient

Dr. Cortes and the team are amazing. They are very personable and make you feel like a part of the family. What I appreciate the most is the education on the procedures he recommends. The team lets you choose what you want to do. They are never pushy! Every time I come here I feel like I’m getting the best care for my dental health.

Recent Patient

Dr. Cortes and staff were so helpful. I unfortunately took a header directly onto a rock knocking out one of my front teeth. Dr. Cortes was able to get me in the next day and start the process of fixing me up. Took the nerve out and put a cap to help with the pain and helped review my options going forward with getting a new tooth. I really appreciate how quick and friendly all the staff is.
