I have very high dental anxiety and had put off going to the dentist for quite some time after a bad experience. After a thorough search, I came across Dr. Cheung's practice and I'm so glad I did.
Serving Rio Vista, CA
Unhurried dental care for Rio Vista - Trilogy welcome.
A direct twenty-eight-minute drive on SR-12 brings Rio Vista patients - including the Trilogy retirement community - to one of the closest comprehensive dental practices.
Welcome, Rio Vista Neighbors
Caring dentistry - a short drive from Rio Vista.
Rio Vista is a small Solano County city on the Sacramento River, best known for its sturgeon-fishing community and for Trilogy at Rio Vista - a 55+ master-planned neighborhood that has brought thousands of active retirees to the area. For households in Trilogy or the older waterfront neighborhoods, our Lodi office is a comfortable trip east on SR-12: the route is flat, the parking lot is at the front door, and the practice itself is single-story and accessible. The work people come to us for tends to be restorative or cosmetic - implants, crowns, dentures, smile makeovers, adult Invisalign - and the office runs at a pace that respects an older patient's time.

About Rio Vista
Rio Vista - and how we fit into life here.
Rio Vista sits on the eastern edge of Solano County, ZIP 94571, with a population around 10,000 and a long history as a Sacramento River port and fishing town. The biggest demographic shift in the past two decades has been the construction of Trilogy at Rio Vista, a Shea Homes-built 55+ active-adult community with thousands of homes and amenities organized around tennis, golf, and clubs. The result is a community that mixes long-time Delta families with retirees from the Bay Area and Sacramento - many of whom prefer quieter, more deliberate dental care than they might have settled for elsewhere.
The work that draws Rio Vista households into a Lodi practice tends to be restorative or cosmetic - implants, crowns, dentures, smile makeovers, and Invisalign for adults - and the practice is well-set-up for that kind of work. Single doctor, modern in-office imaging, plenty of time per visit, and a team that has done this for decades.
