More about Dr. Donald Trunkey, DDS
When I started dental school, I had a mouth full of broken-off teeth. I was very embarrassed, to say the least. The shame I felt about my own dental problems led to my first rule when dealing with patients…NO GUILT. So, on your first visit here, there will be NO lectures. In fact, we’re going to celebrate that you made it to the first step of having a “Healthy and Carefree Smile”.
I graduated in 1980 from dental school at Loma Linda, CA. What I learned really quickly is that patients would rather be anywhere than in the dental office, so that led to rule 2. LESS DENTISTRY IS BEST DENTISTRY. So, we show you how to avoid coming to the dentist any more than you have to.
After 33 years in dentistry I have found that my happiest patients are the ones that stopped the destruction of dental disease and then fixed their teeth as ideally as possible. Then they can live mostly a carefree life as it relates to their teeth. It’s a great place to be!!!

Excellent office
More than 1 year agoLB
I have never experienced such great & professional service from a Dental office before. I am amazed at how genuinely caring and concerned the staff & dentist are. I had such a pleasant visit that I almost didn't want to leave. They thoroughly answered all my questions & also explained things in detail for me. I never felt 'pressured' to purchase any other services or products, when the options were given to me. I also noticed that they addressed me by my name and not by "patient", which made me feel that much extra special. These are just a few 'awesome' things I can say about the dentist. And this was my first visit!!!! I'm actually looking forward to my next visit (never thought I'd say that about visiting a dentist) You're treated like family there. I can't say enough great things about this place =)
