Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through teeth whitening, veneers, and smile makeovers. We specialize in creating natural-looking results that boost confidence while maintaining dental health. Patients receive personalized treatment plans combining aesthetic improvements with functional benefits.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts fused with jawbone tissue. Our process includes 3D imaging, surgical placement, and crown restoration to restore full chewing function and prevent bone loss while maintaining facial structure.
Emergency Dentistry
We offer same-day emergency dental treatment for knocked-out teeth, severe pain, and broken restorations. Our team provides immediate pain relief and stabilization, with after-hours availability for critical situations requiring prompt intervention to save natural teeth.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry helps patients overcome dental anxiety through nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation options. These methods ensure comfortable treatment experiences while maintaining patient safety and awareness during procedures.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth using custom clear aligners that are removable and nearly invisible. This orthodontic solution addresses crowding and spacing issues without traditional metal braces, offering discreet smile correction for adults and teens.

Questions
What dental services do you offer for children?
We provide comprehensive pediatric dentistry including exams, cleanings, and preventive treatments. Dr. Kocian uses gentle techniques to make children comfortable while establishing positive dental habits from an early age.
Do you handle dental emergencies after hours?
Yes, we offer emergency dental care beyond regular office hours. Call our main number for urgent situations like knocked-out teeth or severe toothaches to receive immediate guidance and treatment options.
What sedation options are available for anxious patients?
We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral conscious sedation to help patients relax during dental procedures. Our team will help determine the most appropriate option based on individual needs and treatment complexity.
How do dental implants work?
Dental implants replace missing teeth through titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone. After healing, we attach custom crowns or dentures to restore full function and appearance while preventing bone loss.
Can you help with sleep apnea treatment?
Yes, we provide custom oral appliances for sleep apnea that reposition the jaw to keep airways open during sleep. These non-invasive solutions offer alternatives to CPAP machines for mild to moderate cases.
What payment options do you accept?
We accept major credit cards, cash, and checks. While we process insurance claims for your convenience, payment is expected at the time of service with insurance reimbursement handled separately.
