Sandra Calleros D.D.S.
Dr. Calleros has been providing life enhancing dentistry for over 20 years in the South Bay communities.  She received her Bachelor of Science in Biology from University of California, Riverside and her Doctor of Dental Surgery from University of California, Los Angeles.  Go Bruins!  Along with private practice, she has been an instructor at the UCLA Dental School’s Restorative Department. 
Continuing education is extremely important to Dr. Calleros, as she spends countless hours taking courses to ensure she stays at the forefront of dentistry. She has taken many courses in advanced esthetics, occlusion, and treatment planning at the world-renowned Scottsdale Center for Dentistry, where she is a member of the Spear Faculty Club.  Taking advanced courses in Invisalign Orthodontics has given her Preferred Invisalign provider status.  She is also an active participant in an Advanced Implant Course with  local Periodontists and Oral Surgeons. Last, but not …least, she is one of the first and only Laser Certified Dentists in the South Bay.   Her continuing education will not stop here, as she understands the importance of staying ahead with current dental research and technology.
Dr. Calleros loves dentistry because she can combine science with art to create, not only beautiful, but more importantly, healthy smiles.  From the start of her private practice she has always upheld the highest level of ethics and integrity. You can trust that Dr. Calleros will listen to each individual need and provide you with optimal care.  She has chosen a team that holds the same beliefs and value system to ensure the entire dental experience can be pleasant and comfortable. 
Giving back to the community is a must for Dr. Calleros.  Most recently, she joined forces with Habitat for Humanity to provide free dental services to local families who are unable to afford treatment.  In the past, she has volunteered with the South Bay Health District, where she was able to help low income children and abused women receive much needed dental work.  She also donates to many different charities and participates in local fitness events that raise money for various charities. She and her team volunteered on October 22, 2010 for Maria Shriver's Modern House Call for Women in Long Beach, California.
Dr. Calleros understands first hand the importance of raising a healthy family.  She is a proud mother of two.  Her daughter attends San Diego State University and her son attends El Camino College to become a firefighter.  An animal lover, she also has a dog named Roxy and a beautiful horse named Face.
Away from the office, Dr. Calleros enjoys many outdoor activities.  She recently was able to combine three of her favorite activities, swimming, biking, and running, to complete her first triathlon.  She makes it a point to run the Manhattan Beach 10K Hometown Fair  race each year.  She also takes great pleasure in riding her horse, riding her motorcycle, playing tennis, and hiking.  During the Summer weekends you will find her spending time enjoying the South Bay beaches, riding her bicycle in San Diego or boating in Phoenix, and during the Winter weekends skiing down the slopes of Mammoth.
