We combine state-of-the-art technology with in-depth experience and skill to provide a comfortable, efficient, exceptional dental experience. Below is a list of the services we provide. If you have further questions about any of the services mentioned, call our office and we will give you the information you need.
Preventive Care Services
There are two important things to remember about preventive dental
care:
- Current research has now proven that your oral health and
overall health are connected - this means that problems in
your mouth can affect other important parts of your body!
-
It’s better to prevent problems before they get more complicated
(and expensive) - if you come in for regular checkups, we
can clean your teeth and look for cavities or more serious problems
like
cracks or gum disease. We can then treat these problems in their
early stages.
We offer the following preventive care services:
The longer you wait to fix a problem, the worse it gets.
To put it another way, think of your regular checkups as the “5000-mile
oil change.” |
- Cleaning or Hygiene
- Fluoride Treatment
- Regular Checkups
- Dental Sealants
- Patient Education
- Snoreguards
- Nightguards
- Mouthguards
- Breath Treatment
Restorative Services
We take a conservative approach and try to save as much of your original
tooth as possible. We use only the finest quality materials and labs
to provide you with restorations that are very lifelike, blending in
beautifully with your natural teeth. In addition to being aesthetically
pleasing, our work is comfortable and durable.
We offer the following restorative services:
- Tooth Colored Fillings
- Porcelain Veneers
- Whitening
- Bonding
- All Porcelain Crowns, Onlays and Inlays
- Bridges
- Dentures and Partial Dentures
- Root Canals

Gum Disease
We can’t do restorative
or cosmetic work on teeth that are sitting on unhealthy gums.

Did you know that…
- 75% of adult tooth loss is caused by gum disease
- Approximately 80% of the population has some degree of gum disease
- Gum disease is an infection of the gums and jawbones caused by the
colonization of bacteria underneath the tartar on your teeth
- Bacteria and the chemical by-products that the body uses to fight them
can enter the blood stream and cause serious problems in
distant parts of the body
- Scientists have now linked gum disease to heart disease, stroke,
diabetes, pre-mature births, and low birth weight
- Often there are no noticeable symptoms of gum disease for
a long time and only a trained dental professional can
detect gum disease
in its early stages
When you come in for your routine checkups we will carefully examine
you for any signs or symptoms of gum disease. This allows us to detect
problems early on and treat you with non-surgical therapy if needed.
Our in-office services include:
- Charting and Diagnostic Services
- In Office Gum Therapy
- Antibiotic Treatment - a deep cleaning agent is placed in the gum pockets
and around the teeth to further combat bacteria
- Patient Education - important information about gum disease and
prevention
Cosmetic Services
We understand that the key to any kind of cosmetic work is open and
thorough communication. To that end, we tailor our process to suit
your style. For example, some folks give us very specific direction
about what they’d like to improve or change. Others just know
they want to refresh/rework/brighten up their smiles and they look
to us for recommendations. Whatever your wishes, we’ll find the
option - and smile - that’s just right for you.
We offer the following services:
- Tooth Colored Fillings
- Porcelain Veneers
- Whitening - Zoom II in-office treatment or take home custom trays
- Bonding
- All Porcelain Crowns, Onlays and Inlays
- Aesthetic Recontouring - (reshaping your teeth through filing)
Patient Comfort and Technology
We know that some people are nervous about going to the dentist. And
we know that pure knowledge, expertise, and dental “gadgets” alone
are not enough to make patients feel relaxed and comfortable in the
dental chair. That’s why we’ve assembled a group of team
members that overlay their knowledge and experience with warmth and
humor, compassion and caring.
In addition, any of the technology we use has been carefully researched
and incorporated into our practice based on the direct end benefit
it provides to our patients.
We utilize the following innovations and comfort measures:
- Intra Oral Camera
- Chairside Computers
- Patient Education
- Sedation Dentistry (oral sedation)
- Nitrous
- Patient Comfort Measures - (sit back and relax with DVD players
and blankets)
- State of the Art Sterilization Center
- Distilled Water System
