About

Gentle Dental Grossmont provides multi-specialty dental care in La Mesa from Suites 354 and 459 at Grossmont Center on Grossmont Center Drive, staffing general dentists, an orthodontist, a periodontist, an endodontist, and an oral surgeon under one roof. The geriatric-dentistry program coordinates removable prosthetic and periodontal maintenance for residents of nearby facilities including Grossmont Gardens Memory Care, adapting treatment plans for patients with cognitive and mobility considerations. Dr. Ramon Cabungcal (University of Pennsylvania DMD, 2000) and Dr. Rand Ali Nihad (University of Pennsylvania DMD, 2024) anchor the general-dentistry roster, while Dr. Ghazaleh Vargha (Oregon Health & Science University DDS, 2018; NYU orthodontic residency, 2021) manages the Invisalign and fixed-appliance caseload. Part of the Interdent-managed Gentle Dental network, the Grossmont location applies standardized infection-control protocols and shares laboratory and imaging resources across the multi-site system. Post-surgical periodontal patients undergoing guided tissue regeneration or osseous surgery transition to rehabilitation through providers such as Lamesa Physical Therapy for temporomandibular and cervical mobilization during recovery. Bone-augmentation procedures for implant-site preparation utilize particulate allograft packed into extraction sockets under resorbable collagen membrane barriers, following AAID and ABOI guided-bone-regeneration protocols for staged fixture placement.
