DDS-credentialed and Point Loma-rooted for 20 years through 2024, Becker Scott DDS marks the retirement-phase listing of Dr. Scott Becker's Avenida De Portugal general dentistry. The practice transitioned at the end of 2024 to DMD-credentialed successor Amanda Lacerda DMD at ALMA Dental Care, with the established patient base continuing preventive and restorative work at the same 3046 Avenida De Portugal address under the ALMA Dental Care brand. The two-decade tenure through 2024 built the general-dentistry patient base around crowns, fillings, root canals, extractions, preventive cleanings, and implant-supported restorations — a tenure profile the outgoing provider spent investing in equipment and technology that the incoming DMD successor now inherits across the transition. Longtime patients established during the 2004-to-2024 Becker tenure have two primary continuation options — continuing on-site under the ALMA Dental Care successor, or relocating to other established Point Loma general dentistry practices; Point Loma Comprehensive Dental serves as one peer alternative for patients preferring a different provider altogether. The 3046 Avenida De Portugal office space, existing equipment infrastructure, and established patient records all transferred to the successor practice at the end of 2024, keeping clinical continuity intact across the retirement handoff without disrupting mid-treatment cases. The legacy Becker-Scott-DDS entry persists across dental directories as a historical Google Business Profile marker for the 2004-to-2024 phase of the Avenida De Portugal dental location, while active general dentistry on-site now runs through the ALMA Dental Care successor brand.
