Foothill Ranch has been part of the City of Lake Forest since 2000, and our office sits a short drive down Bake Parkway from the Towne Centre. General dentistry, dental implants and cosmetic work, all in one place.
Foothill Ranch sits inside the Lake Forest city limits, and so do we. No trip to Irvine or Mission Viejo for implant and cosmetic work.
From the Towne Centre it is Bake Parkway to El Toro Road, with no toll and no freeway. Patients coming from the Portola Parkway side or off the 241 usually find it quicker than anything in Irvine. Parking is free and directly outside the door.
Replacing a missing tooth often means being sent to one office for the surgical part and back to another for the crown. We handle implant cases here, so the planning, the placement and the restoration stay with one team that has your records. Whether an implant is right for your case depends on your bone and your bite, and your dentist will go through that with you at a consultation.
Packed schedule? We stay open until 7pm on Wednesdays for parents who can't leave work early. Friday mornings also available for your convenience.

The questions that come up most often at the front desk, answered plainly.
Yes. Foothill Ranch was annexed into the City of Lake Forest in 2000, along with Portola Hills. It kept its own name and its own identity, which is why people still search for a Foothill Ranch dentist rather than a Lake Forest one. Our office is on El Toro Road inside the same city.
Bake Parkway down to El Toro Road, no toll road and no freeway merge. Most patients coming from the Towne Centre or the Portola Parkway side tell us it is quicker than driving into Irvine. Parking is free and directly outside.
Implant cases are handled at this office. In a lot of practices the surgical placement happens in one building and the crown is made in another, which means two sets of records and two sets of appointments. Keeping it together means the team planning the case is the team restoring it. Whether an implant suits your situation depends on your bone, your bite and the teeth either side, and your dentist will assess that at a consultation.
That is a common starting point rather than a dead end. Bone in the jaw changes once a tooth has been gone for a while, and there are ways of addressing it. What applies to you depends on what a scan shows, so the honest answer is that it needs to be looked at before anyone can tell you either way. Come in and we will take a proper look.
It covers a range, from whitening and bonding through to veneers and reshaping. Some of it is quick and some of it involves preparing the tooth in ways that cannot be undone, which is the distinction worth understanding before you commit. Dr. Chang and Dr. Azimi will lay out what each option involves for your teeth and what it does not do.
No. Porcelain and composite hold whatever shade they were made in, so whitening the natural teeth around them can leave existing work looking darker by comparison. If you have restorations in your smile line, raise it before starting, because the order things are done in matters.
Usually. Ask our front desk and we will line the appointments up back to back rather than spreading them across the week. It is the single most common request we get from Foothill Ranch parents.
Current hours are listed on this page and on our Google listing. Early morning slots are the first to go, so ask the front desk for one when you book and we will find the earliest that fits.
