Inclusion as one of America’s Best Dentists is an honor that few dental specialists can boast. For Dr. Velasco, this achievement can be credited to years of hard work and the joy he feels when giving his patients a new smile. “The practice that I run is focused on rehabilitating people that are broken down…we see all the ranges of patients,”. The goal at Uptown Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry is not only to create functional teeth but to also improve an individual’s quality of life. “We put (the teeth) back together so their mouth works properly, their mouth looks good, they feel comfortable, and they are healthy, which is super important. They gain back everything that they have lost because they have lost function, aesthetics, and self-esteem. (We are) putting back together a human that is broken down,”.
