About Our Practice

We started general dental services in Hacienda Heights (San Gabriel Valley) in September of 2006. This dental office is owned and operated by Dr. Jo-Ann De Jesus Africa and her husband Ron Africa. We felt this location had the greatest potential, based on business and residential population. Our priorities include education, smile care and maintaining good oral hygiene of our patients.
We deliver comfortable and high-quality care for all ages. Quality time (we never overbook appointments), honesty and satisfaction are our main goals. Our office offers affordable payment plans to accommodate all sectors of our community. We accept most dental insurance plans. We've added State-of-the-Art dental equipments, including Digital Technology, Cerec 3-D and Powerlase AT. Digital technology gives us precise X-rays, together with an Intra-Oral Camera, which help us communicate effectively with patients and insurance companies. This means a new level of educating , comfort and peace of mind for all patients, to perceive the doctor's diagnosis.
We offer same day restoration on all porcelain crowns, onlays & inlays for your convenience. This means single-appointment restoration from start to finish using Cerec 3D Technology. Powerlase AT is a soft and hard tissue laser that allows us to perform various procedures such as gum and bone recontouring, decay removal, etc.

The durability of any dental restoration is influenced not only by the material it is made from but also by the dentist's technique when placing the restoration. Other factors include the supporting materials used in the procedure & the patient's cooperation during the procedure. The length of time a restoration will last is dependent upon your dental hygiene, home care, diet and chewing habits. ~Dental Board of California ~ www.dbc.ca.gov
