Nothing you wear is more important than your smile
— Connie Stevens

Making smiles in San Diego more Beautiful and Brighter for over 40 years!

How important is it to you to be able to smile? Obviously having regular and good dental care is essential to your smile. So how do you find that proper care? You probably realize that nearly all dentists have received a good education and want to treat their patients properly. But what makes a dentist and their practice unique? The answer is: when everyone in the office takes the time to empathize and understand each patient’s individual dental health situation, their past experience, their goals for comfort, eating and smiling, and finally, what meets their budget! You should not be embarrassed, fearful or intimidated when you seek out professional help. You know that if you cannot smile with ease it will impact your life.

Our vast experience will put you at ease and guide you to the dental health and smile you desire and deserve! Together we will develop a plan that meets your specific needs. Even if you are pain free and do not believe you have any dental concerns, it is important to realize that tooth and gum disease may be present and could eventually cause pain and disease in the future. Often times when you become aware that there is a problem, it may have already reached a point that will require a more involved and costly treatment. This is why early diagnosis makes a difference. For all of these important reasons, being in experienced hands matters.

And so we would like to welcome you to Danney Dental Group and Sleep Apnea San Diego, the practices of Dr. Steven Danney and associates. Our practices are conveniently located off the I-8 freeway near San Diego State University and the Alvarado Medical Center with easy access to all of San Diego County and plenty of free parking.  At our office my team members and I are committed to providing you with the highest quality of care that is guided exclusively by your individual needs.  All of our diagnosis and treatment is "Evidence Based" and through our extensive experience my team members and I will always direct you to a treatment that is specific to your unique dental condition and financial situation. We will always strive to ensure that you are as comfortable as possible and that your dental experience is as pleasant as it can be. 

We look forward to seeing your smile at our office.

-Dr. Steven Danney
