Tourism Dentistry

At the Hornbrook Center for Dentistry, a significant percentage of our patients come from out of town, out of state, and out of the country.

Tourism dentistry means visiting beautiful San Diego, California for some of the best cosmetic dentistry in the world, and returning home from site-seeing with a brand-new smile.

As such, our staff is happy to assist you in arranging transportation and lodging while you’re here for treatment.

Our office is approximately a 20-minute drive from the airport, with access to some of the best hotels and restaurants in the area.
