For over three decades, the Berlanga family has been transforming smiles across Pierce County with exceptional denture care and genuine compassion. Joey Berlanga, Jr., a proud graduate of Bates Technical College, followed his father's footsteps into the profession and has built a legacy of excellence spanning more than 30 years.
