- Dental Examination“I had an all-around very pleasant experience. The staff was helpful and very friendly. I learned so much during my visit. They did complete x-rays and a very comprehensive exam. I now realize that i will ONLY see a hygienist for my dental cleanings. For many years i had cleanings by the dentist and the hygienist met my dental needs more thoroughly. I would recommend giving this office a try.”

- Teeth Cleaning“They’ve never rushed my teeth cleaning. They always go above and beyond to make sure my teeth look and feel fantastic. You can tell they want their patients to be as comfortable as possible. I was amazed at how wonderfully they treated each of their staff members. They were so appreciative and thankful. I’ve never seen any employer treat their staff better, and it made me want to come back that much more. They were one of the kindest, most caring staff I’ve ever dealt with. It didn’t matter how many times I called with a question or concern, they were always happy to help me.”
- Dental SealantsA “Root Canal” can help relieve tooth pain, save your tooth and preserve your smile, all at the same time. During root canal treatment, the hard surface of the tooth is removed, and the infected pulp is extracted. Afterwards, the area is carefully cleaned, sanitized and then ultimately filled with a protective sealant. Next, a crown is placed over the area to provide structural integrity and long term protection.

- VeneersVeneers – These ultra thin “shells”, made of durable porcelain, cover the front surfaces of the teeth and can provide an instant change to the color and shape of your teeth. They can often be used as suitable alternatives to porcelain crowns and can be the ideal solution for treating many different dental health conditions.
- CrownsCrowns – Sometimes referred to as “caps”, a dental crown completely cover a tooth, restoring a natural shape and appearance. Crowns can be made from metal, porcelain fused to metal, resin, or ceramic materials. Because crowns are costly, dentists usually suggest them only when other procedures can’t produce an acceptable result.
- BridgesBridges – Sometimes called a fixed partial denture, a dental bridge is used to replace missing teeth with natural looking, artificial teeth. Bridges can be made of gold, metal alloys, porcelain, or a combination of materials. Bridges are anchored to the surrounding teeth, also known as abutments, after preparing them for crowns.
