Designing Smiles

Dental care needs a trusted name in Covina; Designing Smiles covers it. The office sits at the corner of Badillo and the side streets that branch off toward the civic center. General cleanings sit beside pediatric appointments; whitening shares a menu with crowns and root canals. Whatever the concern—chipped edges, an old filling, or a first checkup—there’s a chair for it. Crowns and bridges slide into the schedule between fluoride treatments for young patients.

Expect straightforward scheduling: fillings, invisalign, and gum therapy share space on the calendar. Night guards for grinding reside next to nightlamp scans for sleep studies. Whether you need a simple polish or a more involved repair, the same team sees it through. Root planing and scaling are standard offerings, completed within the same appointment block. Single-visit bonding for front teeth is also on the roster.

Drive south from the 10 freeway exit at Azusa Avenue, then head two lights past Arrow Highway; the building appears on your left just past the auto-parts store. Those coming from the east turn left at what used to be the old drive-in theater lot. Parallel side-street parking runs along Badillo, or angle for a spot in the larger lot behind the clinic if the front spaces fill by mid-morning.

Call before you leave if the day’s schedule looks tight: (626) 339-1915. Once you’re on site, the map will guide you straight to the door—directions here. The stretch of Badillo between Citrus and the railroad tracks feels like a quiet older district, where storefronts still close early enough to notice the neighborhood clock tower.
