Meet the Doctor and the Staff

We truly believe that the relationship between our staff and patients is of utmost priority. Our office has been solely built by the old fashion way: "word of mouth". Dr. Briney doesn't believe in advertising and the most important way  in building an ethical and professional practice is by creating trusting and personal relationships; hence why patients are on a first name basis with everyone.

Dr. Jeffrey R. Briney
 

Dr. Briney was born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana where he subsequently attended Indiana University for his undergraduate degree in Biochemistry and four more years for his Degree in Dental Surgery (D.D.S.). He completed another year of hospital residency concentrating on all surgical aspects of dentistry. Shortly after leaving Indiana, he had a practice in Beverly Hills working with the entertainment industry. In 1999, he decided to move to Orange County and pursue his dream of establishing a private practice close to the ocean which is where he is now in Dana Point! He is very involved with the city of Dana Point and builds friendships everyday.
