One of Pacific Beach’s longest-running solo dental practices, Bacino Dentistry has welcomed patients at 4747 Mission Blvd, Suite 2 in the 92109 zip code since Dr. Janelle Bacino opened its doors in August 1990. More than three decades later, Bacino Dentistry remains a fixture of Pacific Beach’s Mission Boulevard corridor, offering general, cosmetic, and family dental care. Dr. Bacino finished in the top third of her class at a school renowned for its conservative and preventive approach, and she continues to exceed required continuing education hours each year. Her professional memberships include the American Dental Association, the California Dental Association, the San Diego County Dental Association, the Odontic Seminar, and the Seattle Study Club. Patients heading to a morning cleaning sometimes start the day with coffee at Olive Cafe around the corner on Cass Street. She is also a graduate of the Scottsdale Center for Dentistry, holds CEREC advanced training certification for same-day ceramic restorations, and is Invisalign-certified. Dr. Bacino speaks Spanish and serves patients who travel from as far as China and Italy. Beyond the chair, she has served as Past President of the Pacific Beach Community Foundation and volunteers time teaching children about dental health in La Jolla schools. Her team—including hygienists Jacque and Diana, front-office coordinator Jennifer, and dental assistant Evelyn—brings more than 25 years of combined experience. Those running errands after an appointment will find the Pacific Beach Taylor Branch Library nearby on Cass as well. The practice uses mercury-free materials throughout all procedures and accepts credit cards, debit cards, and NFC mobile payments.
