Cooke Clayton, DDS
A native southern Californian, Dr. George attended Pitzer College in Claremont, CA before earning his dental degree from the University of Michigan. He moved back to the west coast to do a general practice residency at the VA Hospital in La Jolla. He and his wife Shannon, an elementary school teacher, decided San Diego was the place for them to stay and start a family and further their careers.

An avid learner, Dr. George is constantly pursuing the latest advancements in maintaining pristine oral health. He has completed hundreds of hours of continuing education in the areas of endodontics (root canals), oral surgery, crown and bridge work and cosmetic dentistry.
Services
When you choose Alexander George, Dentistry in The Ranch as your dental home, you will be treated as a respected friend, receiving optimal dental care and an exceptional patient experience. We believe a successful dental relationship begins with effective communication between doctor and patient.

Supported by the most current knowledge of our profession and a sincere desire to be of service to our patients, we are able to assist each patient in achieving their desired dental health potential.Whether our patient's concerns are related to hygiene maintenance visits, more advanced procedures such as implant placement or complex mouth rehabilitation, the approach involves the same level of care, skill, and judgment.
Dr. George and his team realize the importance of maintaining a strong focus on preventive dentistry and help their patients understand that this can reduce dental expenditures. Dental health is not only important for the health of your teeth and gums, but foundational to one's overall health and well-being, Dr. George says.
Helping our adolescent patients grow into healthy adults is something Dr. George and his team take special enjoyment in. We make sure they receive the same one-on-one time, care and compassion that we give to our adults. Dr. George takes the time to evaluate each child completely and communicates those findings to both the child and parent to make certain they are fully informed of any recommended treatment.
Dr. George and his staff are not only concerned about each patient's dental health today, but want them to have a smile that they can take pride in long into the future. At times, certain challenges respond best when treated with orthodontics. Depending on each individuals unique situation, in order to properly enhance or improve their smile, Dr. George may advise utilizing orthodontics.
Attractive smiles are more important than people may realize. A clean, beautiful smile provides the best introduction when meeting others. It is important to be confident in your smile, as it can reflect your sense of self esteem. Those who feel their teeth are unattractive are more likely to smile less and appear self-conscious.

Dr. George and his entire team are highly skilled and are extremely knowledgable and personable. The offices are very beautiful and all the equipment is state of the art. I know I'm in good hands and feel safe during COVID times due to their safety protocols. This is my favorite dentist office by far and I can't recommend Dentistry in the Ranch enough!

Very professional office. It’s very relieving to actually have a dentist explain everything to me instead of hearing nothing at all. Best office ever! They are very gentle and attentive to my needs.

I first went to Dr. Cook in 2014. I wanted a cleaning and check up. I also had some fillings and chipped teeth. After my first appointment I found out I had receding gums, my fillings weren’t holding up and I had chipped teeth that were fixed but with colors that didn’t match. That wasn’t all....
Within months my gums were at the healthiest they’d been for years and I had the most beautiful even white teeth. I no longer had to hide my teeth and in all pictures I had and still have the biggest smile of all.
In the past 4 years I have received so many compliments from family and friends
