SANTEE DENTAL CARE FOR HAPPY TEETH

What this record means

The record shows the mark SANTEE DENTAL CARE FOR HAPPY TEETH is cancelled – the registration was voided on Oct 20, 2023 because the owner did not file a required Section 8 declaration, and the USPTO lists the status as “dead · cancelled.” The owner is Lilian Z. Dominguez D.D.S., an individual dental practitioner. The registration covered Class 044 services described as “Dentistry, namely, providing full service dental care for patients including adults and children.” A similar name used for any dental or oral‑health services would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Santee,” “Dental,” or “Care.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply shows the normal amendment and registration steps before the later cancellation. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market dental services under a comparable name.
