San Marcos Cosmetic Dentist - Dr. Derek Martin, D.M.D.

Derek Martin, DMD is a qualified, passionate San Marcos cosmetic dentist who graduated from the Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health. His undergraduate degree in psychology/biology from UCLA probably prepared him for dentistry in ways he didn’t anticipate. Before expressing his artistic side in dentistry, he worked in animation and Disney sculpting, and played guitar and drums in a band.

Valencia, California is Dr. Martin’s hometown and where he met his wife, Shelly. On a whim, he applied to dental school. His first daughter was born while he was in dental school and now he and his wife are expecting their second daughter. Dr. Martin and his wife have settled down in the San Elijo Hills for the desire to be in a close knit community where they can give back through quality dentistry.

Dr. Martin loves the latest technology within dentistry. Dr. Martin is most excited about his CEREC machine, where he can create a crown in just one visit – in about an hour – with no temporary. He is also particularly excited about his Hard Tissue Laser, which only 7% of dentists nationwide have. It will allow Dr. Martin, in most cases, to fill a cavity without numbing or using anesthetics. He also has a Panoramic X-ray Machine and SoproLife cavities detector.

Dr. Derek Martin is committed to giving his patients the best care possible. He looks forward to the opportunity to grow with the community and to get to know his patients for years to come. He lives and works in the San Marcos community as an honest friend, serving people with the modern advances in dental technology and equipment. He enjoys getting to know people, and not just rushing them in and out for treatment.

Dr. Martin treats each patient with the very best care. He earned the Compassion and Humanism Award because he really cares. He is a good dentist, who is great with patients. Dr. Martin believes in treating you with the very best care possible. His experience and choice equipment will pamper everyone who walks through his door. Dr. Martin looks forward to meeting you and your family. Stop by to say "Hello!"
