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.

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. 

Teeth Bleaching

We use an at home whitening system with custom molded trays that will whiten your teeth in approximately two weeks with great 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 gold. Click here to view the Lumineers site.

Fillings: Resin

Tooth-colored fillings that are light cured to match your teeth. Click here for more information.

Root Canals

We refer our patients to specialists (endodontists) for efficeint and comfortable root canal therapy. Click here to view the State Endodonctics site.

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). Click here to view Dr. Parks', the periodontist, site.

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.

What sets us apart:

  • Holistic dentistry
  • Mercury-free fillings placed and safe removal of old mercury/ amalgam fillings
