A Friendly Start

For children, the most important factor in establishing a life-long habit of dental health is early dental visits for preventive care. Regular six-month visits to the dentist starting at age 3 will help your child foster an easy-going and friendly attitude toward dental health, and alleviate the possibility of fear and apprehension. Many parents unintentionally make the mistake of waiting too long to start dental visits and end up with fearful children on their hands. If a child doesn’t see a dentist until a cavity and toothache have set in, the first dental experience will be colored by the unpleasant reason for the visit.

Bring your child in by the third birthday, and we’ll make sure he or she is comfortable and welcomed as we do a gentle teeth cleaning and apply preventive fluoride and sealants to make sure those cavities never happen. With happy visits all around, you’ll have nothing but bright smiles and healthy teeth.

General Dentistry for Life

Preventive treatments are the cornerstone of modern dentistry, but the truth is that 99% of the population will experience tooth decay in some form or another. Most adults will need occasional fillings or more advanced restorations, such as root canals and crowns. When this happens we will do our best to make you comfortable and give you excellent restorations that will last for years to come.

We understand that each patient comes to us with unique circumstances in his/her life and previous dental experiences. If you or a family member suffers from dental anxiety or aversion, let us know and we will take the time to make sure he/she is comfortable with every step of the dental visit. A good experience at the dentist begins with trust, and we aim to establish a trusting relationship with every patient who walks through our doors. For those who wish to take advantage, we offer sedation dentistry options to help you be more comfortable in the dental chair.

For patients who need advanced restorations, we offer tooth conserving inlays and onlays, as well as crowns, bridges, and dental implants. There are many reasons why a person might lose teeth, and dental implants are the superior option for tooth replacement. Unlike dentures, dental implants function as replacement teeth, roots and all. With implants, you can maintain your dentition for the best quality of life.

Smile Design

Even healthy teeth don’t always look as clean and bright as we would like them to. For patients who’ve put years of wear and tear on their teeth, we offer cosmetic treatments to make your smiles glow again. Studies show that people feel more confident in themselves when they are happy with the state of their smiles, and that is something that can improve the quality of everyone’s lives. Our Smile Design services let you plan the corrections you would like to make to your smile, with our experienced cosmetic dentists. We use digital technology to show you what your smile will look like when treatments are complete, and our patients love the results.

Explore our cosmetic treatment options, such as teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, laser gum contouring, and cosmetic bonding. We can’t wait to make you smile with the confidence of a beautiful and healthy smile. Visit our Smile Gallery to see examples of the patients we’ve helped.
