Encinitas Dentist Known for Giving Patients a New Look, does Same for Practice

After 26 years as one of the most successful Encinitas Dentists, Dr. Ed Coffey changes the name of his practice to Encinitas Dental Art.

Dr. Ed Coffey is an Encinitas Dentist who is practicing what he preaches. After 26 years of recommending that an enhanced look enhances one’s life, he has taken his own advice and changed his practice name to Encinitas Dental Art—it’s a move that comes with new graphic identification and new signage. His office, just north of El Camino Real on Encinitas Boulevard, will bear the new look starting August, 2010.

Those who are used to traveling Encinitas Boulevard and seeing Dr. Coffey’s sign may a bit surprised not to see the name of the popular Encinitas cosmetic dentist. But not to worry. It’s still Dr. Coffey, just new and improved.

Why is Dr. Coffey willing to part with such high recognizability? “There comes a time in the life of every business when you must breathe new life into it,” says Dr. Coffey. “And while I have become perhaps the most recognizable Encinitas Dentist, parting with that name does not concern me. Remarkable service, a kind and attentive staff, a tremendous work ethic, and excellence in dentistry will always bring people to our door. When it comes to their oral health, people will always seek the things that matter most. And that’s when they will find us.”

But why Encinitas Dental Art? Says Dr. Coffey, “It’s not a name I would have chosen for myself if it were not for the comments I receive from my patients. So many of them are amazed at how I diagnose their problem and then subsequently enhance their smile as well as their bite, that many have commented that I’m a true artist at what I do.”

Will anything else about the practice change? “Just one more thing,” says Dr. Coffey. Dr. Chris Henninger has joined Encinitas Dental Art and the Encinitas dental community. After serving for four years in the U.S. Navy where he was responsible for maintaining the dental health of over 1,200 sailors on the USS Boxer, Dr. Henninger brings a wealth of knowledge in general, cosmetic and implant dentistry. He is an active participant in the community and is committed to maintaining up-to-date knowledge in the latest dental procedures and technology. He is a member of the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, San Diego Dental Society, Academy of General Dentistry, as well as the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology.
