General & Preventive Care
Prevention is the cornerstone of a healthy smile. Regular visits allow us to identify potential problems early and keep your teeth and gums in great shape for years to come.
Professional Teeth Cleanings
Routine cleanings and comprehensive exams are essential for maintaining good oral health. During each visit, we carefully remove plaque and tartar buildup that daily brushing cannot fully address. We also evaluate your gums, check for early signs of decay, and review your home care routine to keep your smile at its best between appointments.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Early detection saves lives. As part of every routine exam, we perform thorough oral cancer screenings to identify any unusual tissue changes, lesions, or other warning signs. Catching oral cancer at a curable stage makes a tremendous difference in treatment outcomes, and this simple screening could be one of the most important things we do for you.
Periodontal (Gum) Disease Therapy
Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults, and it often progresses without noticeable symptoms. Our periodontal therapy targets the bacteria responsible for gum infection, helping to restore healthy tissue and prevent further damage. We work with you to develop a maintenance plan that keeps gum disease under control.
Sealants
Dental sealants provide a protective barrier over the chewing surfaces of children's back teeth, where decay most commonly starts. This quick, painless treatment seals out food particles and bacteria, giving young teeth an extra layer of defense during the cavity-prone years. Sealants can last for several years with proper care.
Restorative Dentistry
When teeth are damaged, decayed, or missing, restorative treatments bring back both function and appearance. We use proven techniques and quality materials to deliver results that feel natural and last.
Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings restore teeth that have been weakened by decay or minor damage. By removing the damaged portion and filling the space with durable composite material, we make your teeth strong and healthy again. Modern fillings blend with your natural tooth color, so your restoration is virtually invisible.
Crowns & Bridgework
When a tooth has lost a large amount of structure due to decay, fracture, or wear, a custom crown restores its strength, shape, and appearance. Dental bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth, filling the gap and preventing remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
Dental Implants
Implants are the longest-lasting tooth replacement available today. A small titanium post is placed into the jawbone, where it fuses naturally over time to create a solid foundation. Once healed, a custom crown is attached that looks, feels, and functions like a real tooth. Implants also help preserve jawbone density and prevent the facial changes that come with missing teeth.
Root Canal Treatment
When the interior of a tooth becomes infected, root canal therapy saves the tooth rather than requiring extraction. We carefully remove the infected tissue, clean and disinfect the canals, and seal the tooth to prevent future infection. We perform root canal treatment on interior and bicuspid teeth, and the procedure is far more comfortable than its reputation suggests.
Tooth Extractions
Sometimes a tooth is too severely damaged or decayed to be saved through other treatments. In those cases, a careful extraction is the best path forward for your overall oral health. We prioritize your comfort throughout the procedure and provide thorough aftercare guidance to promote smooth, predictable healing.
Removable Dentures
Full and partial dentures help you smile, eat, and speak with confidence again. We craft each set to fit comfortably and look natural, whether you need to replace all of your teeth or just fill in the gaps left by several missing ones. We also provide adjustments and relining as needed to maintain a comfortable fit over time.
Cosmetic Dentistry
A confident smile changes everything. Our cosmetic treatments address chips, cracks, discoloration, and other imperfections so your teeth look as good as they feel.
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth, and they are ideal for repairing larger chips and cracks, closing gaps, and reshaping teeth that are worn or uneven. Each veneer is custom-made to match the color and contour of your smile, delivering a dramatic transformation that still looks completely natural.
Bonding
Cosmetic bonding is a versatile, affordable way to repair small chips or cracks in a single visit. Tooth-colored composite resin is sculpted directly onto the tooth, shaped to match your natural contours, and hardened with a curing light. The result blends right in with surrounding teeth, and the entire process typically takes less than an hour per tooth.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments deliver noticeably brighter results compared to over-the-counter products. We offer options that work safely and effectively, lifting years of staining from coffee, tea, wine, and everyday wear. Whether you want a subtle brightening or a more dramatic change, we can help you find the right level of whiteness for your smile.
Emergency Dental Treatment
If you have a life-threatening or severe injury, call 911 or go directly to the nearest hospital emergency room. We can treat a variety of traumatic dental injuries, including teeth that have been chipped, moved, or knocked out entirely.
For dental emergencies during office hours, please call our office right away. The sooner you receive treatment, the better the outcome for your teeth and your comfort.
