About

Otay Lakes Dental Care in Chula Vista, operated by Dr. Vivian K. Cavan, DMD, provides full-scope general dentistry from a suite on Otay Lakes Road in the 91913 Otay Ranch corridor. A Cebu Doctors College graduate trained across restorative, periodontal, endodontic, surgical, and cosmetic disciplines, Dr. Cavan coordinates post-procedure prescriptions through area pharmacies including Ralphs Pharmacy for patients requiring antibiotic or analgesic regimens after extraction or root canal therapy. The practice addresses comprehensive treatment needs ranging from direct composite restorations and porcelain-crown fabrication to non-surgical periodontal therapy and single-tooth extractions for patients across the Otay Ranch and Eastlake neighborhoods. Patients managing post-procedural jaw tension or chronic orofacial discomfort may pursue adjunctive care through complementary providers such as Otay Lakes Acupuncture, whose needle-therapy protocols address residual inflammation in the temporomandibular region. Non-surgical periodontal treatment uses ultrasonic scaling instruments and hand curettes to debride subgingival biofilm at pocket depths exceeding four millimeters, followed by site-specific application of sustained-release minocycline microspheres to suppress anaerobic pathogens.
