About Us<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

In 1981, Dr. Lucas Gil<\/a>, specialist in Prosthodontics, opened the doors of his first dental clinic in Los Yoses<\/a>, a clinic with a waiting room, three  operatories, an administrative area and his own dental laboratory<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, we have maintained a steady growth of patients by providing higher quality dental treatments than those offered at other dental clinics<\/a>. We have consistently strived to provide that same quality at both of our clinics, located on opposite sides of the city.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n

From day one, the clinic has offered full-mouth services<\/a>, including fillings<\/a>, inlays<\/a>, crowns, bridges<\/a>, complete dentures and more. Improved technology has allowed us to offer porcelain veneers<\/a> and dental implants<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our own on-site dental laboratory<\/a> gives our team the ability to control the entire process of fabricating dental restorations<\/a>. This has given us an edge over other clinics in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, our clinic has expanded to include three Prosthodontists, an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon<\/a>, an Endodontist<\/a>, a Periodontist<\/a>, an Odontopediatrics specialist<\/a> as well as a highly trained supporting staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For over 40 years, Gil Dental Group has endeavored to help our patients achieve optimal oral health.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
