Our Services
Routine Cleanings & Preventive Care
Including individual consultations and dental exams, cleanings, x-rays (when needed), and a focus on encouraging proper maintenance and overall oral health. We also provide sealants to help protect teeth against decay, fluoride treatments for healthier and stronger enamel, and athletic mouthguards and nightguards to protect your smile.
Prevention not only keeps your teeth and gums looking better, but keeping up with your oral health can also significantly reduce the amount of money you have to spend on dental treatment later in life.
Restorative Dentistry
Including tooth-colored fillings; natural looking porcelain caps, crowns, and fixed bridges; endodontics (root canal therapy); permanent dental implant restorations; and dentures and removable partial dentures.
Cosmetic Dentistry
From minor tooth adjustments and smile enhancements to dramatic smile makeovers, our cosmetic dentistry services include tooth-colored fillings; porcelain caps, crowns, and fixed bridges; beautiful porcelain veneers and Lumineers® system veneers (less preparation); and powerful, professional teeth whitening options.
Periodontal Health (Gum Health)
Including diagnosis of gum disease, treatment, and appropriate maintenance. Our focus, however, is on prevention whenever possible. We also screen for early detection of oral cancer.
If your gums feel sore, or if they look red and swollen, you may be at risk for periodontal disease (gum disease). Other signs are pain or sensitivity in your teeth, and persistent bad breath. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss as well as various other serious health problems. We want to help protect your teeth, smile, and health by checking you for gum disease and guiding you into a course of improved oral health.
Advanced Technologies We Utilize in Our Careful Diagnosis & Treatment Processes Include:
Digital X-rays
Digital x-rays are faster than conventional x-rays, and they are comfortable for you. They also aid us to accurately diagnose your oral health needs. All with up to 90% less radiation exposure! With no chemical processing needed, digital technology helps us do our part to keep the environment safe, too.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Composite fillings can be adhesively held in place or "bonded." Because they can be bonded to teeth, composite fillings allow for more conservative preparations where less healthy tooth structure is removed. This often results in smaller fillings than that of amalgam (silver fillings), and they are more natural looking. The tooth-colored material is cured with a special light and the surface is shaped and polished to match the tooth, rendering the final restoration virtually undetectable to the eye. Composite fillings are also environmentally friendly because they don't use mercury.
Isolite System
Happy patients spend less time in the chair with greater comfort, so we use the Isolite System. This system has a soft and flexible mouthpiece to shield your tongue and cheek during procedures. It has a light to illuminate your mouth from the inside, so treatments are shadowless and more efficient. AND it has a place for you to rest your jaw. It also eliminates the need for cotton rolls and rinse breaks. All because your comfort is paramount, and we know you'll especially appreciate the faster treatment times. Come in and experience the difference!
Professional Teeth Whitening
In addition to giving you the benefit of a cleaner looking and more attractive smile, whiter teeth can also greatly enhance your self-esteem. As an added bonus, whitening can lead to healthier teeth because when your teeth look better, you tend to take better care of them to keep them looking fabulous.

Dental Implant Restorations
Many of the millions of people who are missing teeth struggle with uncomfortable and ill-fitting dentures or retainers with false teeth. If you know what this feels like and are ready for a solution, our doctors have one for you! We can give your smile a second chance through dental implant restorations… Implants can resolve the practical and social problems associated with dentures. They are effective in stabilizing dentures to fit better, look better, and chew better. They preclude cavities in restored teeth, make it so you won't need a root canal, and healthy implants can even prevent bone loss.
In addition to denture stabilizing, implants can be used in some crown and bridge applications, as well as single-tooth replacements. Call us to find out more about how this wonderful option in restorative dentistry could change your life!
