We understand

We Know Why You've Been Putting This Off.

Maybe a past visit didn't go well.

Maybe it hurt, felt rushed, or nobody took the time to explain what was actually happening.

Maybe cost has been a concern -or you've just been telling yourself that if nothing hurts, everything's fine.

Whatever the reason, you're not alone.

And you're not judged here.

At The Tooth Place, we've built our practice around the things most dental offices skip: listening, explaining, and making sure you always know what's happening and what it costs.

Dr. Alejandro Jimenez

DDS, BSc · Founder, The Tooth Place

Dr. Alejandro studied biology at UC Irvine, earned his dental degree at St. Augustine, and completed a two-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency through NYU -two extra years of training beyond what's required.

He's been practicing for over 12 years.

But ask his patients what sets him apart and they won't lead with credentials. They'll tell you he talks to them. About what he sees, why he recommends what he recommends -and sometimes about whatever book he's reading that week.

He's the kind of dentist who'd rather enjoy the moment and do right by his patients than rush through the schedule.

I want to help people. I love being a dentist -I get to be around people and make their lives better.

Why Us

What Makes This Office Different.

01

We Don't Sell Treatment.

You'll receive a diagnosis and a clear recommendation. Then you decide. No pressure, no countdown timers, no "if you don't do this today" nonsense.

02

Gentle Technology That Patients Actually Notice.

Our dental vibe reduces injection discomfort. Our 3D digital scanner eliminates those uncomfortable impression trays. Patients consistently tell us the difference is night and day.

03

Bilingual From Front Desk to Chair.

Our entire team speaks English and Spanish fluently. When your dentist is explaining what's happening inside your mouth, you deserve to understand every word -not a rough translation.

04

One Office for the Whole Family.

Kids, adults, grandparents. No more juggling multiple providers across town. One team that knows your family by name.

05

Flexible Payment Options.

We accept Medi-Cal, all PPOs, Liberty, and some HMOs. Financing is available through CareCredit and Sunbit, and we offer in-house payment plans. There's almost always a way to make it work.

06

Rooted in the Community.

Local fairs. Toy drives. Easter baskets. Pictures with Santa. We're not a chain -we're your neighbors in Lynwood and South Gate.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions.

Your first visit includes a full exam and a conversation with the dentist about your concerns and your options. We'll walk you through everything, including cost, before any work begins. No pressure to commit to anything you're not ready for.

Absolutely not. A significant number of our patients come to us after years away from the chair. We understand the reasons people put it off, and our only goal is to help you move forward -at whatever pace feels right.

We do. Kids, adults, and grandparents -the whole family under one roof. We take extra time with younger patients to make the experience positive, comfortable, and even fun.

You're not alone -and we take that seriously. We use a dental vibe, a small device that reduces sensation during injections. Patients consistently tell us the difference is significant compared to past experiences.

We accept Medi-Cal, all PPOs, Liberty, and select HMOs. We also offer financing through CareCredit and Sunbit, as well as in-house payment plans.

Dr. Jimenez y su equipo hablan español e inglés. You'll never have to translate your pain, guess at instructions, or bring someone to speak for you.
