Visiting faculty member at Spear Education in Scottsdale since 2009, Dr. Larsen has maintained a solo general-dentistry practice on Chatsworth Blvd since 2000 inside a building originally designed as a dental office in 1943 by Dr. Sidney Dewhurst. Her American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine qualification drives an oral-appliance program for mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea, an alternative to CPAP therapy that complements the orthodontic aligner work coordinated with Point Loma Orthodontics. The four-part new-patient examination evaluates smile aesthetics, bite function, tooth structure, and periodontal health before any treatment plan is proposed. Cosmetic cases draw on her American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry membership, and she holds board certification through the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine—a dual credential shared by few solo practitioners in the 92107 corridor alongside peers like Sunset Cliffs Dental. The most demanding workflows combine full-arch porcelain veneer sequences with concurrent sleep-apnea appliance fabrication, requiring coordinated bite registration across both devices.
