• About Us

Lifetime Denta Care

We are a dental practice devoted to restoring and enhancing the natural beauty of your smile using conservative, state-of-the-art procedures that will result in beautiful, long lasting smiles!

High Standards

A standard of excellence in personalized dental care enables us to provide the quality dental services our patients deserve.  We provide comprehensive treatment planning and use restorative and cosmetic dentistry to achieve your optimal dental health.  Should a dental emergency occur, we make every effort to see and care for you as soon as possible.

Education & Prevention

As a practice, we are true believers that preventative care and education are the keys to optimal dental health.  We strive to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care”.  That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary.  We also know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease.  Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health.  A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications, and any illnesses that may impact your dental health.

Uncompromising Safety

Infection control in our office is also very important to us.  To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and cross contamination processes using standards recommended by the American Dental Association (ADA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC).

Training & Expertise

As your dental health professionals, we want you to be confident knowing that we are a team of highly trained and skilled clinicians.  We take pride  in providing the care you need to keep your smile healthy.  To give you the best possible service and results, we are committed to continuing education and technical updates.  We attend dental lectures, conferences, and dental conventions to stay informed of new techniques, the latest products, and the newest equipment that a modern dental office can utilize to provide state-of-the-art dental care.  Also, being members of major dental associations helps us to stay aware of the changes and recommendations for our profession.

A Positive Experience

Building a foundation of trust by treating our patients as special individuals is vital to our success.  We understand how uneasy some patients may feel about their dental visits, and how we can make a difference in providing a relaxing and positive experience.  Our entire team is dedicated to providing you with excellent, personalized care and service to make your visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible.

We thank you for allowing us to take care of your dental needs and look forward to serving you.

Dr Wendy Lu, DDS

Dr. Wendy Lu has celebrated her 14th year of her dental career. In her earlier years of practice, while associating with several established dentists in the Silicon Valley, she had a vision to create a unique dental practice where her patients would feel at home. Lifetime Dental Car was then open in February, 2000, with an emphasis on family-oriented dental care approach, catered to patients from 1 to 99 years of age.

Dr. Lu graduated from University of California, San Francisco, in 1994. Dr. Lu has acquired hundreds of hours of Continuing Education at numerous advanced learning facilities, including the prestigious world-class Las Vegas Institute of Advanced Dental Studies. She has employed the equipment and concepts of  Neuromuscular Dentistry since 2003 and has helped hundreds of patients with extensive dental needs including Temporomandibular Disorders.  While advancing towards cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry, Dr. Lu continues to deliver routine and much needed basic dentistry to her patients of all ages and different needs.

Dr. Lu participates in several volunteering activities, giving dentistry to the disadvantaged and less fortunate groups who can’t otherwise afford the highest quality dentistry.  One of her volunteerism is Dentists with a Heart, a free dentistry program coordinated by Santa Clara County Dental Society, for children from low-income families during the week of Valentine’s Day.  She also had donated dentistry to Donated Dental Services (DDS) whose clients included those from the Delaney Foundation in San Francisco.

Being a mother of two daughters, ages 9 and 18, Dr. Lu communicates and works effectively with children and adolescents, changing even the most dentophobic children into the most delighted patients who look forward to their next visits. Her most popular “hits” are balloon animals given as prizes after dental treatment. 

The much talked-about virtual movie goggles she uses during treatment also have attracted young patients as well as adults who prefer to watch movies during their appointments.

As an amateur pianist, Dr. Lu accompanies the choir at Home of Christ as well as numerous vocalists and chamber musicians in the Bay Area.  She looks into recording and recitals after retirement from dentistry in the future.  Her musical background also contributed to the calm and inviting atmosphere in her office.  Many of her patients have enjoyed her performance at several recitals
