Dr. Robert D. Lake, DDS

Dental offices in Huntington Beach tend to cluster near major streets, and Dr. Robert D. Lake, DDS follows that pattern with a second-floor suite on Bolsa Chica. The area mixes medical offices with retail, making it easy to spot among the strip malls and parking lots that define this stretch of the city. Unlike standalone practices tucked into residential corners, this one sits where the 405’s hum is never far off, a reminder of how central it is to the daily commute routes.

General dentistry covers a lot of ground, from routine cleanings to more involved procedures like crowns and bridges. This practice handles those along with cosmetic work—whitening, veneers—and the kind of restorative care that keeps people chewing comfortably for years. Some offices specialize narrowly, but a place like this tends to attract patients who want everything from a checkup to a root canal under one roof. It’s the kind of setup that makes sense in a city where convenience often trumps niche expertise.

Booking an appointment usually starts with a call, and here that means dialing (714) 846-2837. The phone route skips the back-and-forth of online forms, which some still prefer, especially for first visits or when explaining specific concerns. Whether it’s a sudden toothache or just time for a six-month follow-up, the number connects directly to the front desk—no extensions or automated menus to navigate.

The address, 16882 Bolsa Chica St STE 204, places it near the intersection with Gothard, where the street widens and the traffic signals stretch out the drive. For those mapping the route, the directions show a typical Orange County commercial zone: wide sidewalks, palm trees in the median, and the kind of low-slung buildings that blend into the background unless you’re looking for them.
