From the moment you call, you will experience personalized care designed to meet your individual needs.
Our friendly and highly trained staff will make you and your entire family feel right at home.
Family Dentistry
Adults and children have different needs when it comes to dental care. Adults want the best technology, the most informed doctors and the highest quality care and kids want to be comfortable, entertained and respected. Here, we understand these differences, and we address them all. That's why our dentist has extensive experience working with both adults and children—and we can make your dental experience more enjoyable for everyone.
State-of-the-Art Sterilization Procedures
Our sterilization procedures meet or exceed the Centers for Disease Control guidelines. We heat-sterilize all hand pieces and instruments after each use. We only use ADA approved disinfectants. We use disposable gloves, masks, eye protection and barrier covers at all times.
Mercury-Free Dentistry
We understand your concerns regarding the use of mercury fillings. Accordingly, at our office we have elected to offer our patients the option of using advanced, new fillings made of tooth-colored materials that contain no metals or mercury, instead of traditional silver fillings.
Oral Sedation Dentistry
Wake up to a more healthy and beautiful smile with amazingly comfortable sedation dentistry. We care for patients with these concerns:
- I’m afraid of needles and shots.
- I’ve had bad experiences before.
- I have not been to the dentist in a long time.
- I always gag when having dental work done.
- I just can’t seem to get numb.
- All my teeth are too far-gone.
Digital X-Rays
We offer in-office digital x-rays for your convenience.
Digital x-rays are computer-generated images. These images require up to 90%
less radiation than with conventional film type x-rays. Instead of using the
traditional silver-oxide x-ray film that must be developed and then fixed in
caustic and environmentally damaging solutions, the new system takes pictures
via a small electronic sensor and instantaneously transmits a picture of
the tooth onto the video monitor in the treatment room. Therefore, we can see
your teeth and surrounding structures immediately. Feel free to contact us for
more details, or to make an appointment!
PowerLase® AT!
Using safe advanced, laser technology, the PowerLase® AT can aid in the performance of a wide range of common dental procedures, including gum disease treatment, tooth decay removal and root canals. The pinpoint accuracy of the PowerLase® AT laser virtually eliminates the need for uncomfortable drilling, needle injections, and anesthetics, creating a more comfortable experience in less time.
Dental & Restorative Implants
Dental implants are essentially permanent, attached teeth that replace, partials, bridges or dentures. A titanium implant is permanently attached to your bone and a prosthetic tooth (crown) is attached to the implant. Implants are preferred to bridges because they can improve your bite without damaging neighbouring teeth (like a bridge). Treatment can be finished in 3 to 5 visits over the space of about 4 to 12 months.
