Solana Beach Family Dentist

Dr. Michelle Sandler and Dr. Wanda Kauffman, a mother-daughter partnership, owned a thriving dental practice in the Boston area for over 15 years. The doctors sold that practice and relocated to San Diego to reunite with their entire family. They are very much looking forward to once again building a reputation as the Solana Beach dentists of choice, this time in their new community, North County Coastal.

Drs. Sandler and Kauffman believe that beyond offering the widest range, highest quality and most advanced dental care available, it is necessary to go the extra mile to provide the optimal dental care that they believe their patients want and deserve. They invest a significant amount of time in continuing education, studying the most recent and up to date scientific research, procedural and esthetic advances and developments in dental medicine, equipment, materials and treatment concepts every year.

Dr. Kauffman retired in 2018 after 40 years in practice. Dr. Sandler is multilingual and has multiple interests, ranging from horseback riding to reading and spending time with her husband, and grown sons. She also loves her dogs Pepper and Mrs. Barkley and horses Titan and Tank. Dr. Sandler awaits meeting you, and will treat you like family. She takes pride in providing a unique level of compassion, warmth and true outstanding dental care.
