General and Family Dentistry in Vista, California

Who We Are

We Pride Ourselves on Our Experience and Honesty.   Our staff is extremely experienced (many staff members have 30+ years of experience in the same location), and we do not believe in up-selling.  Despite our long history, we have modern technology and up to date procedures.

Dr. Jason McGonegle, D.D.S. purchased the 60+ year old dental practice previously run by Dr. Lawrence Buss, D.D.S. for 40 years in the Rio Vista Professional Building located across from the Vista Civic Center complex in Vista, CA.  Dr. McGonegle was honored to be personally chosen by Dr. Buss to continue the care of his existing patients as he enters retirement, and is maintaining the same staff and the procedures which Dr. Buss had in place.

Our History

Located in Suite 105 of the Rancho Buena Vista Professional Building, across from the Vista Civic Center complex and California Bank & Trust, the office is modeled after the nearby historic 163 year old Rancho Buena Vista Adobe.  The dental office had been operated for 40 years by DR LAWRENCE BUSS until Dr Jason McGonegle purchased the practice in January 2016.  The dental office history pre-dates Dr. Buss' purchase in 1976. Many of the existing staff members have been at the office for 30-40+ years.
Testimonials
Testimonial from Prior Dr. Buss Patient on Dr. Jason McGonegle: Ms. Nancy Downs
"I have been a long time patient of Dr. Buss and was a bit anxious to have a new dentist.  From the first meeting and throughout my many subsequent visits, Dr. McGonegle put me at ease.  I was relaxed and received wonderful care from him and entire staff.  The outcome:  healthy teeth, a great smile, and a very pleased patient!!! My new dentist definitely, Dr. McGonegle.
Dr. Jason McGonegle DDS Testimonial:  Don Harn, Hemet CA
"I have lots of tooth problems thanks to radiation treatment for throat Cancer a year or two ago.  My sister, who lives in North County San Diego, was aware of this and highly recommended her North County San Diego Dentist, Dr. Jason McGonegle.  I called for an appointment and was able to see him fairly quickly.  I was very pleased right away with his office staff, all very pleasant and friendly.  I had my teeth cleaned at first by a super good hygienist, also very pleasant and thorough.  Dr. McGonegle is open, honest, straight to the point and a super nice person.  After looking at my X-rays, he gave me an extended and detailed review of his plan to repair my teeth and bite.  I have now had 4 visits in his chair and he by far is the most gentle and caring dentist I have ever used. He and his assistant talked of family and other enjoyable subjects that help take my mind off having to hold my mouth open for long periods. For the first time in my life, I don't dread seeing a dentist.  I highly recommend Dr. McGonegle for all your family members."
