About

General dentistry and emergency-extraction services at MK Dental in San Diego's Kensington area operate from 4365 Meade Ave under the clinical direction of Dr. Pauline P. Tran, DDS, who runs this location alongside seven additional offices throughout San Diego County. The Meade Ave clinic handles same-day wisdom-tooth extractions, cavity preparation and composite-resin fillings, and preventive cleanings with full-mouth radiographic imaging. Patients recovering from extractions or deep-scaling procedures benefit from jaw-mobility rehabilitation protocols available at Embody Physical Therapy and Yoga, which addresses temporomandibular joint dysfunction through manual therapy and guided movement patterns. The treatment rooms include a massage chair for patient seating, a comfort feature that reduces physical tension during longer procedures. Dr. Tran's multi-site practice model means the Meade Ave office maintains concentrated appointment blocks on Mondays, mornings Tuesday through Friday, and Saturday hours through early afternoon in the 92116 ZIP. Patients managing dental anxiety or chronic orofacial pain outside the dental chair access acupuncture-based protocols through providers on the same corridor, including Justin Ehrlich, L.Ac., whose Adams Avenue practice applies needle-point therapy to trigeminal-nerve pain pathways that overlap with dental nerve distribution. The Meade Ave location places MK Dental within the Normal Heights community plan area, where Meade Ave runs parallel to and one block south of Adams Avenue through the Kensington commercial district and dentist kensington searches carry the sub-community's highest service-category query volume.
