"He Is the Best and Most Honest Dentist"
I think I was one of his first patients and have remained one for over 20 years. He is smart, gentle and seems always to have the patient's best interest in mind. His loyal staff (they have remained the same for the past 20 years) are also very smart and caring. I now have to travel a bit to see Dr. Stragier, but I would not go anywhere else.
Dr. Stragier is the best dentist I've ever been to!! All the staff was amazing. He was kind and gentle and I felt NO pain during a ROOT CANAL. Couldn't recommend him any higher! Also the Dental Assistant Pam was so sweet and really funny. Wouldn't ever go to a different dentist now.

"A Comfortable and Stress-Free Environment."
My family and I have been patients since 2000. I have nothing but good things to say about the friendliness and professionalism of both the staff and Dr. Stragier. Dr. Stragier has made himself available after hours to take care of emergency dental issues. A comfortable and stress free environment.
Dr. Stragier, Pam, Terry and the dental hygienists are the BEST I've ever been to. Dr. Stragier's techniques are very gentle and he doesn't try to sell procedures you may not need. Even my (reluctant patient) husband has done very well there for many years.

Dislike Going to the Dentist? We Offer Sedation Dentistry
Is a fear of the dentist preventing you from getting the dental care you need? Sedation dentistry can help you overcome your dental anxiety so that you can keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime. At our San Diego dental office, we offer two types of dental sedation:
- Nitrous oxide: Nitrous oxide (more commonly known as laughing gas) is a mild form of sedation that offers a rapid onset, wears off quickly, and has virtually no side effects.
- Oral sedation: We can also administer medication to help you relax during your appointment. If you choose oral sedation, you will need a friend or loved one to drive you home.
If there is anything that our San Diego team can do to further ensure your comfort, please do not hesitate to ask.
