Dr Velascos facilities appear to be very high tech. I have some very minor spacing on my top front teeth. This is after having braces while a teenager. They have moved as I've gotten older. Dr Velasco and staff was very pushy about getting veneers. I felt like this was made too much a priority over other items such as refilling old fillings, etc. Veneers are very expensive and my teeth are not your typical veneer candidate. My teeth are straight, healthy, etc. In the end it turned me off so I quit going. My new dentist has not even broached the subject, but instead is focused on my oral health first.

About Hygienist: At one hygeine appt, they did the sonic cleaning. When she was done I noticed a slight chip on a front tooth. She dismissed and said it was like that and only appeared more noticable after the cleaning. They ended up filing it to straighten it out. I don't know if it's possible to chip a tooth with the sonic cleaning but I feel pretty certain I did not walk into that cleaning with a chipped tooth. I have been wary ever since.
