Meet Dr. Ette Ntekim: Over 20 Years of Advanced Dentistry in Oxnard

 

Finding a dentist who combines decades of experience with cutting-edge technology and genuine compassion isn't always easy. At Seren Advanced Dentistry Oxnard, Dr. Ette Ntekim has spent over twenty years perfecting this balance, creating a practice where clinical excellence meets exceptional patient care. His commitment to advanced techniques and patient comfort has made Seren Advanced Dentistry a trusted name throughout the Oxnard community.

A Legacy of Excellence and Education


Dr. Ntekim's impressive credentials begin with his education at the prestigious Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC, one of the nation's leading dental schools. This world-class education provided him with a strong foundation in both the science and art of dentistry, preparing him to deliver the comprehensive care his patients deserve.

With over two decades of experience in clinical dentistry, Dr. Ntekim has treated thousands of patients, handling cases ranging from routine preventive care to complex full mouth rehabilitations. This wealth of experience means that no matter how straightforward or complicated your dental needs may be, you're in capable, experienced hands.

The Biomimetic Dentistry Difference


What truly sets Dr. Ntekim apart is his commitment to biomimetic conservative dentistry—an approach that mimics nature to preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. Unlike traditional dentistry that often requires removing significant amounts of healthy tooth structure, biomimetic techniques focus on:

  • Preserving natural tooth strength and structure

  • Using materials that bond naturally to teeth

  • Creating restorations that flex and function like natural teeth

  • Minimizing the need for future invasive procedures


This philosophy means you receive treatments that are not only effective but also conservative, maintaining your natural teeth's integrity for years to come. Whether you need dental bonding, crowns, or other restorative work, Dr. Ntekim's biomimetic approach ensures you keep more of your natural tooth structure while achieving beautiful, long-lasting results.

Comprehensive Care Under One Roof


At Seren Advanced Dentistry Oxnard, Dr. Ntekim offers a complete spectrum of dental services, eliminating the inconvenience of multiple referrals and creating a seamless care experience:

Preventive Dentistry: The Foundation of Oral Health


Prevention is always better than treatment. Dr. Ntekim's comprehensive preventive care includes:

  • Thorough dental cleanings and examinations

  • Digital X-rays with minimal radiation exposure

  • Oral cancer screenings and pathology evaluations

  • Personalized oral hygiene education

  • Early detection of potential problems


Regular preventive visits not only keep your smile healthy but also save you time, discomfort, and money by catching issues before they become serious problems.

Restorative Dentistry: Function Meets Beauty


When teeth need repair, Dr. Ntekim uses premium-quality materials and advanced techniques to restore both function and aesthetics:

  • Tooth-Colored Fillings: Mercury-free composite fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth

  • Dental Crowns: Custom-crafted crowns that protect damaged teeth while looking completely natural

  • Root Canal Therapy: Comfortable, precise treatment that saves teeth and eliminates pain

  • Dental Bridges: Fixed solutions for replacing missing teeth


Every restoration is designed with longevity and natural appearance in mind, ensuring you can eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence.

Cosmetic Dentistry: Transform Your Smile


Your smile is one of your most important features, and Dr. Ntekim offers a range of cosmetic treatments to enhance its appearance:

  • Professional Teeth Whitening: Safe, effective treatments that can lighten your teeth by several shades, erasing years of staining from coffee, wine, and other lifestyle factors

  • Porcelain Veneers: Ultra-thin shells that correct discoloration, chips, gaps, and misalignment for a complete smile transformation

  • Cosmetic Bonding: Quick, affordable solutions for minor imperfections that can be completed in a single visit

  • Tooth Contouring: Subtle reshaping to create more harmonious tooth proportions

  • Complete Smile Makeovers: Comprehensive treatment plans combining multiple procedures to achieve your dream smile


Dr. Ntekim's artistic eye and technical precision ensure your cosmetic enhancements look natural and complement your unique facial features.

Dental Implants: Permanent Solutions for Missing Teeth


Missing teeth don't have to be permanent. Dr. Ntekim specializes in dental implant rehabilitation, offering:

  • Single tooth replacement

  • Full arch restoration with implant-supported dentures

  • Advanced 3D imaging for precise implant placement

  • Bone grafting when needed to ensure implant success


Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement, providing permanent solutions that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. Unlike dentures, they don't slip or require adhesives. Unlike bridges, they don't require altering adjacent healthy teeth.
