I am so lucky to have found wonderful Dr. Duguid! I am new to San Diego having retired and moved from San Francisco where I had lived all of my adult life til now. My San Francisco dentist was unable to recommend a dentist here so I was on my own. I checked various professional websites, but in the end I reverted to Unilocal– the site I use largely for restaurant reviews! But I do know that Unilocalers are a reliable bunch, especially those who have a profile and a photo and have a network of Unilocal friends and have written numerous reviews. That’s how I found Dr. Duguid. So it wasn’t «dumb» luck. I have just come from Dr. Duguid’s practice where he removed a very old, broken down crown in the back of my mouth that had developed a fissure, and replaced it with a new one that will last forever. He accomplished this in a single afternoon(not more than 90 minutes, really) in a most amazing way. His equipment is positively state-of-the-art. He was able to «explore» the pathetic remainder of my tooth with his electronic device(a laser?) and fashion a new tooth(crown) to precisely cover it. But that wasn’t the amazing part. He was able to make the crown himself on the premises with what amounts to a 3-D printer! I believe that former crown is more than a decade old and I recall at the time that it required four visits to the dentist to accomplish what Dr. Duguid did in under 90 minutes today. The first visit was to make an impression and get a «temporary». The second visit was unexpected. While I was waiting the two weeks for the lab to make the crown, my temporary came off and I had to get it put back on. Then on the third visit, my former dentist set in the crown. But then he asked me to come back in a week in order to «tweak» it. Sometimes the crown needs a little additional shaping to get the«bite» just right, he told me. Mine did. I also need to say how personable and pleasant Dr. Duguid is, as well. I had my initial visit two weeks ago when I came in for an exam. He took me right at the appointment time and was very generous with his time as he explained everything to me. And today, as he performed the crown procedure, he explained step-by-step. He must be a God-send to dental-phobes! Another thing that also impressed me was the fact that Doctor and his assistant, Ofelia, worked so seamlessly together. Barely a word passed between them but they both were«in my mouth» and working in concert. In summary, this is a very fine practice with an outstanding staff and a lovely ambience.

I have had the same dentist for more than 25 years. He retired and I was forced to find some else. Thought no one would meet my expectations. Dave Duguid and his entire office team proved me wrong. State of the art facility and warm caring professionals. Highly recommended

My husband and I had been going to this practice for nearly 10 years until our recent move out of the city. Extremely clean and professional. Very pleasant, friendly, and gentle hygienists and dentist. They do not attempt to sell services or recommend needless procedures. Highly recommend Dr. Duguid an his staff.

I just love the sinsational smile treatment I received with David Duguid and his assistant Sharon. It takes only 20 minutes and is actually relaxing while you kick back in the chair while the magic bleaching gel and uv light work their magic. Easy to have a great white smile and very affordable. Thank you.
