Yuri Ausker

Dental practices in coastal Orange County run the gamut from boutique studios to long-established clinics. Yuri Ausker fits into the quieter end of that spectrum, offering standard preventive and restorative care without the fanfare. This isn’t the kind of place that advertises whitening specials on billboards or pushes Invisalign packages at every visit. Instead, it sticks to the fundamentals: exams, cleanings, fillings, and the occasional crown or bridge when needed.

The office sits on the second floor of a professional building at 1401 Avocado Ave #201, a stretch of Newport Beach where medical offices outnumber cafés. Avocado Avenue itself is one of those oddly named streets that feels more like a shortcut between PCH and the 55 than a destination. Parking here follows the usual Newport rules—metered spots if you’re lucky, a short walk if you’re not. Inside, the focus stays on dentistry, not decor.

A single five-star review on Google suggests someone left satisfied, though with only one rating, it’s more of a data point than a consensus. First visits typically start with a call to (949) 640-0404, where the front desk handles scheduling and insurance questions. There’s no online booking portal or chatbot—just a phone line and, presumably, a voice on the other end. For those who prefer to scope out the location first, the map pin drops precisely where you’d expect: between the dry cleaner and the financial planner.

Newport’s dental scene leans practical, and this practice aligns with that ethos. No spa-like amenities, no Instagram-worthy waiting area—just a second-floor suite where the priority is keeping teeth in working order. The neighborhood itself is a mix of low-slung office parks and residential pockets, the kind of place where you’d grab a sandwich after an appointment but wouldn’t linger for the ambiance.
