Parking is free and on-site, and the building is fully wheelchair-accessible, so getting in and out is easy even when you're in pain.

  • Open Both Weekend Days

    No more waiting for Monday. Port Hueneme patients can be seen on Saturday or Sunday.

  • Care for Military Families

    We welcome service members and families from Naval Base Ventura County, with flexible payment and financing options.

  • Most Repairs in One Visit

    Digital X-rays, CBCT imaging, and same-day CEREC crowns mean fewer trips back and forth.

Emergencies We See Most in Port Hueneme

Beach and surf injuries, broken teeth from sports, cracked crowns and sudden toothaches make up most of the weekend calls we get from Port Hueneme. A board to the mouth or a fall on wet rocks can chip a front tooth or loosen it in the socket, and the sooner it's stabilized, the better the outcome.

For service members, we focus on finishing treatment quickly so it doesn't interfere with duty schedules. Same-day crowns and in-office root canal therapy mean many repairs are done in one or two visits.

Port Hueneme families also call us about sports injuries on weekend game days and about older fillings that finally give out. Whatever the cause, we start with an exam and digital X-rays, explain what we see in plain language, and get you comfortable before anything else happens.

When to Go to the ER Instead

The nearest hospital emergency room for most of Port Hueneme is St. John's Regional Medical Center in Oxnard. Go there, or call 911, for swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, a high fever or a jaw injury.

For tooth pain, a broken tooth or a lost crown, call us first. Hospital ERs can manage pain and infection, but they can't repair teeth.

Dental Emergency on a Sunday?

We see dental emergencies on Sundays from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, so a toothache or broken tooth doesn't have to wait until the work week. Sundays are reserved for emergencies only. Call (805) 220-9209 as early as you can and we'll do our best to see you the same day.

    MauritsGoogle · August 2025
  • (Translated by Google) The best dentist I've ever had. A great doctor is not just a dentist, he's a human being. The welcome from the very first moment I walk in. The humane and warm treatment, starting with the doctor and then the two young women who assist him, creates a healthy and non-discriminatory environment; he's not racist. He's a doctor with a very professional and humane approach, very intelligent and highly capable in what he does. But he doesn't just charge and do the work; he also cares about the patient. I thank God for this dentist. 🙏🙏🙏
