Diagnostics & Prevention
We employ advanced diagnostic equipment such as digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to thoroughly assess your oral health.

Regular check-ups and cleanings are essential for preserving a healthy smile, and we highly advise them for maintaining optimal oral health.
Diagnostics & Prevention
Cleaning & Hygiene
Our experienced dental hygienists offer professional cleanings to eliminate plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth. We utilize ultrasonic scalers and manual instruments to deeply clean above and below the gum line, then polish to achieve a smooth, gleaming result. Additionally, we provide customized instructions for oral hygiene to assist you in sustaining excellent results until your next appointment.
Cleaning & Hygiene
Digital X-Rays
We utilize digital X-rays to capture precise and detailed images of your teeth, bones, and soft tissues. Unlike traditional film X-rays, digital X-rays emit much lower levels of radiation and enable immediate viewing and effortless sharing with specialists if required. Our usual suggestion is to have bitewing X-rays annually and a full mouth series every 3-5 years for monitoring your oral health.
Digital X-Rays
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride, a natural mineral, works to fortify tooth enamel and reduce the risk of cavities. Our professional fluoride treatments, available as gels, foams, or varnishes, are applied directly onto the teeth. These treatments are swift, painless, and recommended for both children and adults with a high susceptibility to tooth decay.
Fluoride Treatments
Dental Sealants
Sealants are thin protective coatings that are put on the chewing surfaces of your back teeth (molars and premolars) to prevent cavities. These teeth have deep grooves and pits that can catch food and bacteria, making them difficult to clean and more likely to decay. Sealants produce a smooth, easily cleanable surface and can remain effective for several years with proper maintenance.
Dental Sealants
Emergency Dentistry
Dental emergencies can occur at unexpected times, but you can rely on us for help. Whether you're facing a severe toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, we are committed to delivering fast and compassionate care. We provide same-day emergency appointments and strive to alleviate your pain and restore your oral health promptly. If you have a dental emergency after hours, please contact our office for guidance on reaching our on-call dentist.
Emergency Dentistry
Periodontal Care
Periodontal (gum) disease is a severe infection that, if not treated, can result in tooth loss and other health issues. We provide complete periodontal care, which includes deep cleaning, laser therapy, and surgery, to stop the advancement of gum disease and improve your oral health. We will collaborate with you to create a customized plan to maintain the health of your gums and avoid the disease from coming back.
Periodontal Care
Soft-Tissue Laser Therapy
Explore an accurate, less intrusive solution to dental problems. Our utilization of cutting-edge soft-tissue lasers allows for virtually painless treatments for gum disease, cosmetic gum reshaping, and other similar procedures. Laser therapy offers swifter, more comfortable treatment and necessitates less post-treatment recovery time compared to conventional surgical methods. Our dental professionals possess advanced expertise in laser dentistry and will devise a personalized treatment strategy to assist you in obtaining the best outcomes.
Soft-Tissue Laser Therapy
All-Tissue Laser Therapy
In addition to soft-tissue lasers, we provide all-tissue lasers that can be utilized on both soft tissues and hard tissues, such as teeth and bone. All-tissue lasers provide exceptional accuracy and flexibility for a variety of procedures, including cavity preparation, periodontal surgery, and biopsies. Laser dentistry often offers a more comfortable experience by being less painful and more efficient than traditional methods.
All-Tissue Laser Therapy
Sedation Options
We understand that a lot of patients feel anxious or scared about going to the dentist, and our patients often express this worry. In response, we are dedicated to creating a calm and cozy setting for you. Our clinic provides various sedation choices, such as nitrous oxide (also known as laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation given by a certified anesthesiologist. Our committed team will work with you to determine the most appropriate sedation approach for your individual requirements, making sure that your safety and comfort are the top priorities during your treatment.

We highly recommend that the majority of patients, regardless of their oral health status, schedule routine check-ups and cleanings at our office every six months. However, patients with gum disease or other oral health concerns may require more frequent appointments to ensure proper monitoring and treatment. Our dedicated team of professionals will work closely with you to assess your individual needs and develop a customized schedule that is tailored to your unique oral health requirements.
Yes, mercury removal is safe when performed by qualified professionals using proper protocols. We follow strict safety guidelines and use specialized equipment to protect both patients and staff during the removal process.
Modern digital dental X-rays produce minimal radiation and are generally safe for most patients. In fact, the amount of radiation you receive from natural sources in your daily surroundings is higher than that from dental X-rays. Nonetheless, if you are pregnant or have other health issues, please inform us so that we can implement necessary precautions.
The duration varies depending on the number of fillings being removed. Typically, removing and replacing a single mercury filling takes about 60-90 minutes. We can often treat multiple fillings in a single visit.
If you encounter a dental emergency like a bad toothache, a fractured tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, please contact our office immediately. We can schedule emergency appointments on the same day and give you guidance on managing your situation until you can visit us. In case your emergency happens outside of our regular hours, please call our office to get directions on how to reach our dentist on call.
Many insurance plans cover mercury filling removal when it's deemed medically necessary. Our team will help you understand your coverage and explore financing options if needed.
Symptoms of gum disease consist of gums that are red, swollen, or tender, bleeding while brushing or flossing, enduring bad breath, receding gums, and teeth that are loose or shifting. Nevertheless, gum disease can develop silently at times, emphasizing the importance of routine dental check-ups. We will assess you for gum disease during each visit and advise on suitable treatment if necessary.
We use high-quality, biocompatible composite resins that match your natural tooth color. These modern materials are durable, mercury-free, and aesthetically pleasing.
