Diagnostics & Prevention
We utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic tools like digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to comprehensively evaluate your oral health.

Cleaning & Hygiene
Our skilled dental hygienists provide expert cleanings to remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth. We use ultrasonic scalers and manual tools to thoroughly clean both above and below the gum line, followed by polishing for a smooth, shining outcome. Furthermore, we offer personalized guidance on oral hygiene to help you maintain excellent results until your next visit.

Digital X-Rays
We use digital X-rays to take accurate and detailed images of your teeth, bones, and soft tissues. Digital X-rays emit significantly lower levels of radiation compared to traditional film X-rays and allow for immediate viewing and easy sharing with specialists if needed. Our typical recommendation is to have bitewing X-rays once a year and a full mouth series every 3-5 years to monitor your oral health.
Digital X-Rays
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that strengthens tooth enamel and lowers the chances of getting cavities. Our expert fluoride treatments, which come in the form of gels, foams, or varnishes, are administered directly to the teeth. These treatments are quick, painless, and suitable for both children and adults who are at high risk of tooth decay.
Fluoride Treatments
Dental Sealants
Sealants are thin coatings used to protect the chewing surfaces of your back teeth (molars and premolars) from cavities. These teeth have deep grooves and pits where food and bacteria can get trapped, making them hard to clean and more prone to decay. Sealants create a smooth, easy-to-clean surface and can stay effective for several years if properly maintained.
Dental Sealants
Emergency Dentistry
You can depend on us when unexpected dental emergencies arise. Whether you experience a severe toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, we are dedicated to providing swift and compassionate care. We offer emergency appointments on the same day and aim to relieve your discomfort and promptly improve your oral health. If you encounter a dental emergency outside of regular hours, please reach out to our office for instructions on contacting our on-call dentist.

Periodontal Care
Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is a serious infection that can lead to tooth loss and other health problems if left untreated. Our comprehensive periodontal care services encompass deep cleaning, laser therapy, and surgery to halt the progress of gum disease and enhance your oral health. Together, we will work on developing a personalized plan to preserve the health of your gums and prevent the disease from recurring.

Soft-Tissue Laser Therapy
Discover an effective, minimally invasive solution for dental issues. Our use of state-of-the-art soft-tissue lasers ensures nearly pain-free treatments for gum disease, cosmetic gum reshaping, and related procedures. Laser therapy provides quicker, more comfortable treatment and requires minimal post-treatment recovery compared to traditional surgical methods. Our dental experts have advanced skills in laser dentistry and will create a customized treatment plan to help you achieve optimal results.
Soft-Tissue Laser Therapy
All-Tissue Laser Therapy
We provide all-tissue lasers in addition to soft-tissue lasers, which are effective for both soft tissues and hard tissues like teeth and bone. These lasers offer precise and flexible performance for various procedures, including cavity preparation, periodontal surgery, and biopsies. Laser dentistry often offers a more comfortable experience due to its reduced pain and increased efficiency compared to traditional methods.
All-Tissue Laser Therapy
Sedation Options
We acknowledge that many patients experience anxiety or fear when visiting the dentist. That's why we are committed to establishing a serene and comfortable environment for you. Our facility offers a range of sedation options, including nitrous oxide (commonly known as laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation administered by a certified anesthesiologist. Our dedicated team will collaborate with you to determine the most suitable sedation method for your specific needs, ensuring that your safety and comfort remain the primary focus throughout your treatment.

We strongly advise most patients, regardless of their oral health, to schedule regular check-ups and cleanings at our office every six months. However, patients with gum disease or other oral health issues may need more frequent appointments for proper monitoring and treatment. Our committed professionals will evaluate your specific needs and create a personalized schedule based on your oral health needs.
Modern digital dental X-rays emit very low levels of radiation and are considered safe for the majority of patients. In fact, the radiation exposure from natural sources in your everyday environment is typically higher than that from dental X-rays. Nevertheless, if you are pregnant or have any underlying health conditions, please let us know so that we can take the appropriate precautions.
If you experience a dental emergency, such as a severe toothache, a broken tooth, or a tooth that has been knocked out, please get in touch with our office right away. We are able to arrange emergency appointments for the same day and provide you with instructions on how to handle your situation until you are able to come in. If your emergency occurs outside of our normal hours, please contact our office for information on how to reach our on-call dentist.
Signs of gum disease include red, swollen, or sensitive gums, bleeding during brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, receding gums, and loose or shifting teeth. However, gum disease can progress without obvious symptoms, underscoring the importance of regular dental check-ups. We will evaluate you for gum disease at each appointment and recommend appropriate treatment if needed.
