Serving Lathrop, California
Family & cosmetic dentist near Lathrop, CA
Preventive, cosmetic and restorative dentistry for Lathrop families, in a calm Stockton practice that has been here for decades.
Getting to us from Lathrop
Lathrop patients travel north on Interstate 5 or Highway 99 to reach us in north Stockton. As Lathrop has grown, we have welcomed more families from the area who are looking for an established practice rather than a rotating roster of dentists.
The same dentist, every visit
You will see Dr. Van Sicklen, not whoever is on rotation. For Lathrop families building a long-term relationship with a dental practice, that continuity is the point.
An established practice, not a rotating roster
Lathrop has grown quickly, and new dental practices have grown with it. What we offer is the opposite of new: a practice that has been in the same place, under the same dentist, for more than thirty years.
The practical benefit is continuity of judgement. A dentist who placed a filling eight years ago is the best person to decide whether it now needs replacing, because he knows what it looked like when it went in.
Care that grows with a family
Children are welcome from their first visit, which the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends within six months of the first tooth appearing. From there, preventive care, sealants and early orthodontic assessment follow the same schedule as the rest of the household.
Adults in the same family are seen for everything from cleanings to gum disease treatment and restorative work.
