Dr. Timothy Shen DMD leads Trinity Family Dental on Lake Murray Boulevard in La Mesa, combining Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry training with an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency completed at Naval Medical Center San Diego. TMJ and bruxism cases receive occlusal-splint fabrication and bite-force analysis to identify parafunctional grinding patterns, a jaw-alignment diagnostic that intersects with the cervical-spine assessment protocols at The Joint Chiropractic on nearby La Mesa Boulevard. United States Navy Reserve service continues alongside civilian practice, and an average of 30 to 40 hours of annual continuing education ensures the clinic's protocols reflect current evidence-based standards in restorative and surgical dentistry. An in-house endodontist provides root canal therapy, retreatment, and apicoectomy without external referral, consolidating specialty and general dental care within the Lake Murray Boulevard office near Lake Murray Reservoir. Laser-assisted periodontal therapy targets subgingival bacterial colonies and inflamed sulcular tissue, a soft-tissue management approach that complements the post-operative jaw and cervical rehabilitation programs at PRN Physical Therapy - La Mesa. Guided implant placement uses cone-beam CT imaging and digitally fabricated surgical stents to position titanium fixtures within one millimeter of the planned trajectory, optimizing primary stability and reducing healing time before prosthetic loading.
