Our Services
General and Preventative Dentistry
-
We provide thorough examinations and use digital x-rays to help customize treatment to each individual’s needs. We have many diagnostic aids and educational methods to help you make the most informed decision regarding your treatment. These aids include the use of PearlAI, a cutting edge software that aids in early detection of cavities and other diseases. Our caring and proficient registered dental hygienists will clean your teeth and provide you with home care instructions.

Gum disease, also known as periodontitis, is a common condition caused by bacteria and plaque buildup around the teeth and gums. Early signs may include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, while more advanced stages can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and loose teeth. One of the most common treatments for gum disease is scaling and root planing (SRP), also known as a deep cleaning, which removes plaque and bacteria from below the gumline and helps the gums heal. With early detection and proper treatment, gum disease can often be managed and prevented from progressing, helping protect both your oral health and your smile.
-
Dental sealants are a simple, preventive treatment that help protect teeth from cavities. A thin, protective coating is applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars and premolars), where deep grooves can easily trap food and bacteria. Sealants create a smooth barrier that helps prevent plaque and acids from causing decay. The procedure is quick, painless, and requires no drilling or numbing. Sealants are especially beneficial for children and teenagers, but adults without existing decay in these areas may also benefit from added protection.
-
A tooth extraction is a procedure used to remove a tooth that is severely damaged, decayed, infected, or causing crowding. Our goal is always to preserve natural teeth whenever possible, but when a tooth cannot be saved, extraction may be the best option to protect your overall oral health. The area is carefully numbed to keep you comfortable during the procedure, and the tooth is gently removed. Afterward, we will provide clear instructions to help ensure proper healing and discuss replacement options if needed to restore. To help prevent dry socket after a tooth extraction, it is important to protect the blood clot that forms in the socket as the area heals. Avoid smoking, using straws, or vigorous rinsing for the first few days, as these actions can dislodge the clot. Follow all post-operative instructions, keep the area clean, and stick to soft foods while the site begins to heal. Taking these precautions helps promote proper healing and reduces the risk of complications. function and appearance.

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a specialized hinge near the ear that allows the mouth to open, close, talk and chew. TMJ disorder (called TMD) is a degenerative disease that can cause chronic headaches, neck aches, earaches, shoulder and back pain. We can perform diagnostics to determine if you have TMD.
-
To reduce anxiety while receiving treatment, we offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and conscious sedation, which means that you safely take a pill to become completely relaxed for your appointment.
-
When teeth are severely broken down or already have a large filling, the supporting gum and bone can interfere with the ability to properly restore the tooth. This is where minor periodontal surgery can be of benefit to allow us another angle to approach saving a tooth. We also utilize a dental laser to help minimize any bleeding or post-operative discomfort.
-
Dental emergencies can happen unexpectedly and often require prompt care to relieve pain and prevent further damage. Our office provides emergency dental treatment for issues such as severe toothaches, broken or knocked-out teeth, infections, and dental trauma. If you are experiencing a dental emergency, we encourage you to contact our office as soon as possible so we can evaluate the problem and provide the care you need quickly and comfortably.
Digital Dentistry
Our office uses modern digital dentistry to make treatment more efficient, comfortable, and precise. With advanced scanning, design, milling, and 3D printing technology, we can create highly accurate restorations, appliances, models, and treatment plans without many of the traditional steps patients are used to. Digital dentistry allows us to provide streamlined care while maintaining excellent fit, function, and esthetics. All of our design work is completed by a local professional who specializes in CAD/CAM software.
-
Same-day crowns allow us to restore a damaged or weakened tooth in a single visit using digital scanning and in-office milling technology. Instead of traditional impressions and a temporary crown, we can design and create a custom ceramic crown while you are here. This helps save time, provides a comfortable fit, and allows you to leave with your final restoration the same day.
-
Our 3D printed night guards are custom-made from a digital scan of your teeth to help protect against grinding and clenching. These appliances are designed for a precise fit and comfortable wear while helping reduce wear on your teeth, restorations, and jaw joints. Digital design allows us to create a durable guard that fits your bite accurately and can be easily reproduced if needed.
-
3D printed retainers are custom-made from a digital scan of your teeth to help maintain tooth position after orthodontic treatment or minor tooth movement. Using digital design and 3D printing technology, we can create retainers with a precise, comfortable fit without the need for traditional impressions. Because the scan is stored digitally, replacement retainers can often be made more easily if one is lost or damaged.
-
Inlays and onlays are conservative restorations used when a tooth needs more support than a filling but does not require a full crown. Using digital scanning and design, we can create a custom restoration that fits precisely into or over the damaged portion of the tooth. This helps preserve healthy tooth structure while restoring strength, function, and a natural appearance.
-
Digital temporaries and wax-ups help us plan and preview treatment before final restorations are completed. A wax-up allows us to design the ideal shape, size, and position of the teeth, while temporaries can help patients see and test the proposed result. This is especially helpful for cosmetic cases, larger treatment plans, and situations where esthetics and function need to be carefully planned.
-
3D milled dentures are created using digital design and precision milling technology for an accurate, comfortable fit. Compared to traditional denture techniques, the digital process can improve consistency and make it easier to reproduce or replace a denture if needed. These dentures are designed to restore chewing function, support facial appearance, and provide a natural-looking smile.
-
Printed study models are 3D replicas of your teeth created from a digital scan. They allow us to evaluate your bite, plan treatment, fabricate appliances, and track changes over time without relying on traditional impressions. These models are highly accurate and help improve communication, planning, and efficiency throughout your care.
Cosmetic Dentistry
-
Porcelain Veneers are thin yet durable porcelain layers placed on the front of your teeth that can dramatically improve your smile. When fabricating veneers, we remove a minimal amount of your natural tooth structure compared to dental crowns. Schedule an appointment today to determine if veneers could be the right option for you.
-
Whitening is an easy, conservative way to brighten your smile. We can make custom-fit trays to whiten your teeth over a brief period of time. Alternatively, in-office ZOOM! whitening gives you a dazzling smile in just one appointment!
-
Composite fillings, also known as tooth-colored fillings, are used to repair teeth affected by cavities, minor fractures, or wear. Made from a durable resin material, composite fillings are carefully matched to the natural color of your teeth, allowing them to blend in seamlessly with your smile. In addition to restoring strength and function to the tooth, composites provide a more natural-looking alternative to traditional metal fillings. Tooth-Colored Fillings have dramatically evolved in the last several years – they have the advantage of combining strength and esthetics. In addition to composites, our office also has the luxury of providing access to in house 3D printed medical grade restorations as well.
Dental Implants
-
Dental implants represent the gold standard in tooth replacement—designed to increase a patient’s overall quality of life. Using advanced digital planning, a precision-placed titanium implant integrates naturally with your jawbone, creating a stable, long-term foundation for a custom-crafted restoration.
-
The result is a tooth that looks, feels, and functions like your own. Unlike traditional options, implants preserve bone structure, maintain facial aesthetics, and eliminate the inconvenience of removable solutions.
-
Dental implants can be used to help support or attach to dentures, providing improved stability, comfort, and confidence compared to traditional removable dentures. By connecting the denture to implants, patients often experience better chewing ability, less slipping, and a more secure fit during everyday activities like eating and speaking. Implant-supported dentures can be a great option for patients looking for a stronger, more dependable tooth replacement solution.
Restorative Dentistry
-
Complete and Partial Dentures – we can fabricate new dentures and repair existing dentures. In addition to this, we also fabricate dentures that can be supported by implants for a more functional and comfortable smile. Our dentures are custom fabricated and made to fit each patient's unique anatomy. Patients will be a part of each step in the denture fabrication process allowing for clear communication in how they prefer the denture and denture teeth to appear esthetically.
-
Crowns are indicated when restoring extensively compromised teeth. New all-porcelain crowns are extremely strong and blend very well with natural teeth. We have the technology to make porcelain crowns with no metal, and in many cases we can fabricate and cement the permanent crown at the same visit. Our crowns are fabricated by local custom high-end laboratories who utilize the highest quality materials. This allows for efficient and accurate communication producing optimal results.
-
Dental bridges are a reliable way to replace missing teeth and restore your smile. They’re designed to “bridge the gap” by anchoring a natural-looking replacement tooth to the surrounding teeth. Each bridge is custom-made to match your bite and blend in with your smile, so you can eat comfortably and speak with confidence. Replacing a missing tooth also helps keep nearby teeth from shifting and maintains proper alignment.
For many patients, a dental bridge is a straightforward, fixed solution that can be completed in just a couple of visits while still delivering strong, long-lasting results.
-
Composite fillings are tooth-colored restorations used to repair cavities, chips, or worn areas while blending naturally with your smile. Made from a durable resin material, composite fillings allow us to restore the strength and appearance of your tooth with a conservative, natural-looking approach. They are a great option for both front and back teeth and can help keep your smile healthy and beautiful.
-
Dental implant crowns are custom-made restorations that attach to a dental implant to replace a missing tooth. They are designed to look, feel, and function like a natural tooth, helping restore your smile, improve chewing ability, and maintain proper spacing between your teeth. Because the implant acts as a stable foundation, implant crowns can provide excellent strength and comfort for everyday use. With routine dental visits and good home care, they can be a long-lasting solution for tooth replacement.
