Services
Sedation Dentistry
Our sedation dentistry services provide anxiety-free dental experiences through medication-assisted relaxation techniques. This solution benefits patients with dental phobias, sensitive gag reflexes, or those requiring extensive procedures. Our certified team ensures safe, comfortable treatments while maintaining full responsiveness.
Digital Scanning
Digital scanning replaces traditional impressions with precise oral mapping technology. This method eliminates discomfort from impression materials while improving diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. Patients appreciate faster appointments and immediate visual feedback during consultations.
Teeth Whitening
We offer both in-office power bleaching and custom home whitening systems. Our professional treatments safely remove stains and discoloration using hydrogen peroxide solutions under dental supervision. Patients achieve noticeable results in 1.5 hours (in-office) or two weeks (home system) with lasting effects.
Sleep Apnea Therapy
Our custom oral appliances address sleep-disordered breathing by maintaining open airways during sleep. This non-invasive treatment option works for patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea or those preferring alternatives to CPAP machines. We provide specialized follow-up care through our Lakeview Sleep Solutions program.
Air Abrasion
Air abrasion offers a drill-free alternative for treating tooth decay and surface imperfections. This technique uses fine aluminum oxide particles to remove damaged enamel while preserving healthy structure. Patients experience reduced noise, vibration, and need for anesthesia during restorative procedures.
