I was referred to Dr. Borquez for TMJ and my recently developed severe headaches. Dr. Borquez was able to help me with my jaw pain and diagnose my headaches. He has referred me to neurologist to help manage them. Thank you, Dr. Borquez

My wife and I have had the pleasure of Dr. Borquez and his staff as our only general dental service provider for over 25 years! Dr. Borquez's 'chair side' demeanor is always professional and friendly. Jennifer always greets you with a warm smile and makes you feel welcomed. Addy makes the teeth cleaning event a pleasant experience and with a real caring approach. We highly recommend Dr. Borquez to everyone!
