    Initial Oral Examination
    Your initial oral examination includes a visual examination, charting, periodontal probing, diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We will also take x-rays, which includes the panoramic x-ray for proper diagnosis of the anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth as well as the bite-wing x-ray series for proper diagnosis of proximal decay of posterior teeth.

    Facilities and Equipment
    Some of the on-site facilities and equipment we offer include:

    • Intraoral Photography
    • Computerized Patient Education
    • Cerac - Crown restorations are completed in a single appointment
    • Electric handpieces for quieter and smoother preparations


    Dental Implants
    We will work with an implant specialist to create an implant for a missing single tooth, missing multiple teeth, or replace a removable appliance. Click here for more info

    Teeth Bleaching
    Our state-of-the-art, in-office Power Bleaching system will make your teeth whiter in less than 1.5 hours. Another option is our home bleaching system you take with you for results in 2 weeks. You can also consider a combination program of both systems for optimal, long-term results.

    Crowns and Veneers

    You can have a new smile with all-porcelain crowns (empressed material) on the anterior teeth. For the posterior, we use porcelain fused to metal.

    Fillings: Resin

    Tooth-colored filings that are light cures to match your teeth. Amalgam: Silver-colored filings, more durable material.

    Root Canals
    We perform root canals on anterior and premolar teeth.

    Periodontal Treatment

    You should have a standard cleaning at least twice a year. A periodontal treatment includes an Adult Prophy (basic cleaning). If it has been over a year since your last cleaning, possible treatment will include either Periodontal Scaling (deeper) or Root Planning and Scaling (requires anesthetic).

    Mouth Guards
    Whether you are an athlete or casual sports participant, you should wear a mouth guard to protect your teeth. If you grind your teeth while you sleep, a bite guard will help reduce symptoms of TMJ. We custom make mouth guards in both soft and hard materials.

    Removable Dental Prosthesis
    For missing teeth, we can make dentures or removable partials for you.
