About Lakewood Cerritos Dental Center
• Emergency Appointments Available• Family Owned• Since 1967
Founded in 1967 by Abelardo Lopez, D.D.S., Lakewood Cerritos Dental Center was originally located at South Street and Bellflower Boulevard in Lakewood, CA. At the time, it wasn't called Lakewood Cerritos Dental Center. After four years we moved inside the Cerritos Mall and named it "Cerritos Dental Center." Our office had two doctors and four employees.
As our practice grew, we moved to 183rd Street to our Cerritos location in 1980. As this new office was large and suited our growing business needs, we hired new doctors and made additional services available to patients including orthodontics. That location had 25 chairs and 30 employees.
Our History
To further expand the practice, a second office building was constructed in Lakewood. Completed in 1991, it has 30 operatories and a staff of 30 people. We offer general and cosmetic dentistry as well as additional dental specialties like endodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery. Our Lakewood office is centrally located to serve the needs of our community. To schedule an appointment, call (562) 278-8577.
Dental Care Service
Our goal is to provide you with the best quality of dental care and service. By offering two locations, we can serve the community better. New patients have a choice of multiple dentists and specialists in endodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery.
As a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO), we honor nearly all forms of dental insurance including most California Dental Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans. Our practice can also handle dual insurance coverage situations.

Our Staff
Many of our doctors have degrees from prestigious universities such as UCLA and USC, and have a huge amount of combined experience.
Our assistants, hygienists, and technicians are quite capable and highly trained individuals. They are naturally courteous and thoughtful to all our patients.
Additionally, we have dental treatment counselors who can go over the recommended treatment plan with you to explain doctor-recommended dental treatments and procedures. They can explain fees and co-payments involved with insured patients.
