Dentist In Downey, CA

Your oral health is our number one priority, which is why our practice has invested heavily in advanced, proven technology that saves time and provides all-in-care for our patients. Our team prioritizes dental emergencies but is open for general dentistry, same-day treatments such as single-visit crowns, and cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening, clear teeth aligners, and veneers. We also offer teledentistry, a new and convenient program that allows patients to connect with our dentist for a virtual consultation.

Downey Modern Dentistry is accepting new patients, walk-ins, and patients in need of emergency dentistry, so if you're experiencing any swelling, pain, uncontrollable bleeding, or have a fractured tooth, call us right away. Our practice takes most major dental plans and offers discount dental plans and in-office financing. We're also pleased to partner with many community organizations to give back to those in need.

As our patient, we pledge to provide you with the highest level of dental care so that you can walk away with a healthier, happier smile. Book an appointment online or call us today.
