Dr. Lam Chittaphong D.D.S., Scripps Mesa Endodontics

The Mira Mesa area blends quiet residential streets with clusters of professional offices—one of them being Dr. Lam Chittaphong D.D.S., Scripps Mesa Endodontics. Tucked along Carroll Centre Road, the practice occupies suite 120 at 9888, a spot that’s easy to reach whether you’re coming from the 15 or the 805. Endodontics isn’t the kind of specialty most people think about until they need it; root canals, cracked teeth, or persistent dental pain often lead the way here. Procedures like apical surgeries, traumatic injury treatments, and retreatment of prior work fall under their scope—nothing glamorous, just the precise, problem-solving side of dentistry.

Booking a consultation is as simple as calling (858) 564-8546, and the process from there tends to follow a clinical rhythm: diagnosis, options, and a plan tailored to the issue at hand. First-time visitors might not realize how close the office is to the Mira Mesa Community Park—useful for killing time before an appointment if you arrive early. For exact directions or to double-check the location, the map lays it out clearly. Around here, a good endodontist is the kind of contact you hope to never need—but keep anyway, just in case.
