At SmileHaven Dental Center, we believe we stand out from other San Diego dental practices because we're dedicated to providing holistic dentistry for our patients. If you're not familiar with this biological, non-toxic kind of dentistry, don't worry - you're not alone! Many people are starting to become familiar with all the benefits that holistic dentistry can provide them, which is why we'd like to take the time to tell you more about this innovative and whole-body approach to dentistry.
A holistic dentist believes that a person's oral health is connected to the health of the rest of the body (See meridian tooth chart) and will place an emphasis on bio-compatible whole-body dentistry and whole-body healing and wellness.At SmileHaven, we follow these core principles of holistic or natural dentistry, which differ from a traditional dentist.

At Smilehaven Dental Center, we're proud to provide all of the cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry treatments that you'll find at any other dentist's office in and around El Cajon and La Mesa, CA. However, where we differ from other cosmetic dentists is that our practice utilizes holistic dentistry, an approach where we focus on whole-body health instead of just the mouth.
At Smilehaven Dental Center, we take pride in our friendly and well-trained team members! As your dedicated staff, we strive to make each of our patients feel right at home! We want you to have a comfortable and pleasant each time you visit our holistic dentist office for dental treatment or cosmetic dentistry.
At SmileHaven Dental Center we have created a Dental Wellness Club to help our patients achieve optimal dental health. We understand that many people are not able to keep regular "preventative" maintenance, and then when a problem occurs, it is often more serious, and the cost is more than they can easily afford.

First holistic dentist I have ever been to. My first visit was while pregnant and my expectations were exceeded. This was also my son's first visit, he was beyond nervous. They were very kind and had great communication. I had a problem with bleeding gums as most pregnant women do, and their natural mouth wash cleared it right up. They will have my business as long as I reside in San Diego.

I have been coming here for probably about 3 years now. I was looking for holistic dentist and I came across him in my area. Dr. Chen is knowledgeable and honest. I had very bad dentist experience in the past when they did aggressive treatments or unnecessary treatments. Aside from regular cleaning by Alma who is great, I've done mercury removal, crown and filling. I am happy with the work Dr. Chen did on my teeth.

"I recently visited Smile Haven Dental Center for a teeth cleaning with Alma. She was professional, friendly, and answered all of my questions. Her work was extremely through, and it felt like the appointment flew by. I highly recommend visiting her if you want a pleasant and professional experience."

I’ve been using Mr Chan for over 15 years plus. From the first time I came here I’ve been comfortable and the staff is amazing from Kristina , Arleen to the dental hygienist Alma. The prices are reasonable and I love the atmosphere here. They all seems to get along well like one happy family. If I could give 10 stars I would.

I had my first visit with Dr. Chan today, and I was very impressed. I had been putting off a visit to the dentist because I was looking for a Holistic/Biological Dentist and wasn't sure who to choose. My experience with a Holistic Dentist in Orange County was very pricey. The go-forward plan to remove old mercury fillings in 5 teeth and replace a crown is less than 1/2 the cost it was with the dentist in Orange County. I also really appreciated the time Dr. Chan took to explain things to me, not only about my teeth, but other related health questions. I like his holistic approach and am looking
