Convenient Before or After Work or School Appointments!
Going to the dentist is even more enjoyable and easier when it doesn’t interfere with your daily schedule! At our office, we make it easy for you to benefit from the preventive and restorative care you need without having to take time off work or school.
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.
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 neighboring teeth (like a bridge). Treatment can be finished in 3 to 5 visits over the space of about 4 to 12 months.
Sedation Dentistry
You can have a 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.

It’s called ArmourBite™ from Under Armour®, & it’s an innovative mouth guard praised by top pro & amateur athletes. These mouth guards improve flexibility, increase balance & help athletes avoid trauma to their teeth in a way never before possible.
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.
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!
Teeth Whitening
Now you can have significantly whiter teeth in a matter of a few days using advanced teeth-whitening techniques. Both comfortable and affordable, our teeth-whitening procedure involves your wearing a specially crafted tray for a few hours in order to achieve a surprising difference in your smile!
Sealants & Fluoride Treatments
Tooth decay, otherwise known as cavities, can be a significant problem for children as well as adults. There are numerous factors that lead to tooth decay and there are ways to prevent it. With the use of sealants, we can cover the deep grooves in your back teeth and extend their life while helping to prevent cavities.
Preventive Dentistry
This includes our regular dental hygiene visits, sealants, mouthguards, and patient/parent education. We place a high emphasis on sealants, which are effective in preventing tooth decay on the biting surfaces of chewing teeth. This plastic coating, which is clear or tooth colored, is applied to the deep pits and grooves. This seals them in the areas where decay is most likely to begin. At less than half the cost of conventional fillings, without anesthetic or drilling, sealants are one of the most important preventive services we have.
Filtered Water Lines
We understand your concern about water quality and the importance of keeping you and your family healthy. For this reason, we utilize filtered water lines during our dental procedures. By filtering the water used in dental procedures, we are able to get rid of any substances that may compromise the health of our patients. The safety, health and dental care of patients are our top priorities. This is just another way to show how much we care!
