Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through porcelain veneers, bonding, and smile reconstructions. We combine artistic vision with technical precision to address discoloration, misalignment, and damaged teeth. Each treatment plan considers facial aesthetics and bite functionality to create natural-looking results that enhance confidence while maintaining oral health.
Dental Implants
We provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using high-quality dental implants designed by master technician Taki Nishihata. Our process includes 3D imaging for precise placement and restoration options like crowns or implant-supported dentures. This service addresses single or multiple missing teeth while preserving jawbone structure and restoring full chewing function.
Prosthodontics
Specialty prosthodontic treatments address complex dental reconstructions including bridges, dentures, and TMJ solutions. Dr. Erica DeFabio develops comprehensive treatment plans for missing or damaged teeth, focusing on restoring both appearance and oral functionality through customized prosthetic solutions that integrate with natural dentition.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional teeth whitening uses the KoR system for dramatic stain removal and color enhancement. Custom trays combined with in-office power bleaching deliver long-lasting results by breaking down deep-set discoloration from coffee, wine, or medications while maintaining enamel integrity through pH-balanced formulations.
Family Dentistry
Comprehensive family dental services include cleanings, fillings, and preventive care for all ages. We emphasize early education and regular checkups to maintain oral health, using digital radiography and VELscope cancer screening for early detection of potential issues while creating a comfortable environment for children and adults.
