New Patients Are Welcome!
Cracked, chipped, broken, and decayed is no way for teeth to live. With our same-day milling technology, we can digitally design, create, and place restorations in a single visit!
Gone are the days of unsightly metal fillings and toxic mercury in your mouth—thank goodness! Today, we use a durable and natural-looking tooth-colored resin to fill cavities and stop decay in its tracks, restoring the health and beauty of your smile at the same time. Tooth-colored fillings are color-matched to blend in seamlessly with your natural smile.
If you have an area of decay or damage that’s too large for a filling, but not large enough for a full crown and removing healthy tooth structure, and inlay or onlay might be just the ticket for a conservative restorative option. Inlays are smaller and repair damage contained within the cusp, where onlays are larger and extend beyond the cusp.
It’s possible with our advanced same-day technology! Come in with damaged, decayed, or missing teeth and leave with a completely beautiful smile the very same day.
With the help of our CEREC® milling machine, multiple appointments and temporaries are a thing of the past. We can complete the entire process in a single visit.
When teeth go missing, the gap can be hard to bear. Custom dental bridges replace missing teeth and restore balance so you can eat, speak, and smile again.
Today’s dentures are comfortable, durable, and natural-looking so you can live your golden years with grace and confidence. Now that’s something to smile about!
If you or your little one is experiencing signs of infection, you should come see us right away. Root canals and pulp therapy (for baby teeth) can save teeth from extraction. We know root canals don’t have the best reputation, but they’re routine today and usually no more uncomfortable than having a cavity filled.
We use a topical anesthetic to ensure you don’t feel a thing and have sedation available if you need a little extra help relaxing. Your doctor will make a small access hole in the tooth, through which we will carefully remove the infection, fill and seal the chamber, and finish up with a new crown.
Dental implants are the only way to replace a lost tooth root.
We can provide precision dental implant placement right here in-house.
Dentures or false teeth are prepared to act as prosthesis for missing teeth. This procedure comes under Restorative Dentistry. In certain cases, dentures are built
