Escoto is a highly experienced dentist in Las Vegas, Nevada, with a practice located at 2650 Lake Sahara Dr #120, Las Vegas, NV 89117. The Nevada TMJ Institute has been serving the Las Vegas community since 1991, with the LLC being incorporated in 2013, demonstrating a long-standing commitment to dental health in the region.

This specialized approach allows them to address chronic pain, headaches, jaw clicking, and other symptoms associated with TMJ dysfunction. Beyond TMJ treatment, the practice offers a comprehensive array of general and specialized dental services. These include: General Dentistry: Routine check-ups, cleanings, dental fillings, and preventive care. Cosmetic Dentistry: Teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and other procedures to enhance smile aesthetics. Restorative Dentistry: Dental crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants to restore function and appearance of damaged or missing teeth. Pediatric Dentistry: Dental care tailored for children, including cleanings, fillings, and fluoride treatments. Orthodontics: Solutions for teeth alignment, though the primary focus appears to be on general and neuromuscular dentistry. Oral Surgery: Including wisdom tooth removal and other necessary surgical procedures. Emergency Dental Care: Addressing urgent dental issues such as broken teeth, severe toothaches, and knocked-out teeth. The Nevada TMJ Institute emphasizes the use of modern dental technology and techniques to ensure efficient and comfortable patient experiences. They also highlight a patient-centric approach, aiming to provide personalized care and build long-term relationships with their patients. Dr. Escoto is also known for his community involvement, including donating dental services to children in need through organizations like Girls and Boys Town.

Please note this was a few years ago. I had great hopes of Dr Escoto helping with TMJ, he seemed eager to help then things took a turn. I will say he had a friendly front desk manager and additional staff. I spent over 5k for a dated appliance, didn't work.

Not only did he continuously overcharge me, but then when I switched to another specialist he refused to give me copies of my charts with detailed explanations of treatment plan and cost. When I called office pleading to get my records, the front desk assistant suggested I flirt with him to get what I wanted. Do NOT waste your time here!

Excellent care, attention to detail, a skilled and conscientious artist in his field. He has been my dentist for over 24 yrs, has set crowns over the years, and blessed me by correcting my jaw alignment as a bonus. His skill is worth every dollar!

Alway great results and useful tips for oral longevity. Replaced all amalgam with state of the art ivory fillings with no problems after 9 years. Very cordial and friendly staff. Going on 71 yrs and still have all my teeth.

I suffered a very traumatic TMJ injury in late August of 2023. For 2 weeks I was in the most excruciating pain of my life. I was completely bypassed by other providers. Even after telling them I had suffered from facial trauma. These providers were trying to treat me for a ear infection there was never an infection. Thankfully my dentist listened to me and referred me to Dr. Escoto. He and his staff are phenomenal. I was seen the same day as a walk-in patient.

Shirley saw how hurt, scared, and frustrated I was after 2 weeks of getting nowhere with the other providers. She assured me that I was in the best hands and I truly was. I appreciate Dr. Escoto and his team for helping me in my time of need. My healing journey from this injury has not been an easy one but I am getting there. I did have a few follow-up visits with Dr. Escoto but it has been a while since my last one. I plan on scheduling another visit with him real soon.
