Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement by surgically placing titanium posts into the jawbone. These posts fuse with natural bone to create stable anchors for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Our in-house CBCT scanning ensures precise placement, while same-day emergency appointments address urgent needs. Implants preserve jawbone density and offer functionality matching natural teeth, lasting decades with proper care.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Patients wear each set for 22 hours daily, removing them only for eating and oral care. Treatment typically lasts one year, with options like ClearCorrect available for similar results. Our consultations determine suitability for correcting misalignment, gaps, or bite issues while maintaining aesthetic confidence during treatment.
Same-Day Crowns
Same-day crowns utilize CEREC technology to create and place dental crowns in one appointment. This eliminates multiple visits by digitally scanning teeth and milling ceramic restorations onsite. Ideal for damaged or decayed teeth, these crowns restore function and appearance immediately while maintaining natural aesthetics through tooth-colored materials.
Preventive Care
Preventive care includes routine exams, cleanings, and oral cancer screenings using VELscope technology. Our diode laser and nitrous oxide sedation enhance comfort during procedures. Regular visits detect issues early, preventing costly treatments while maintaining optimal oral health through professional cleanings and patient education on home care practices.
Dental Emergencies
Emergency dental services address urgent issues like broken teeth, infections, or severe pain. We offer same-day appointments and sedation options for comfort. Treatments may include root canals, extractions, or temporary restorations while determining long-term solutions. Our team prioritizes rapid pain relief and stabilization for non-life-threatening emergencies during regular business hours.

Questions
How do I get emergency dental care?
Call our office immediately for same-day appointments. We handle urgent cases with sedation options, but visit the ER for life-threatening issues like breathing difficulties.
What makes dental implants the best replacement option?
Implants replace entire tooth structure, preserving jawbone and preventing adjacent teeth movement. They last decades, unlike dentures or bridges requiring periodic replacement.
Do you accept dental insurance?
We're in-network with major PPO plans and help file claims. For uninsured patients, we offer CareCredit financing and a $39/month membership plan covering preventive services.
Can I straighten teeth without metal braces?
Yes! Invisalign and ClearCorrect clear aligners straighten teeth discreetly. Wear them 22 hours daily, removing only for meals and oral care, with treatment typically lasting one year.
Why do my gums bleed when brushing?
Bleeding gums often indicate gum disease. Our periodontal screenings use diode laser technology for early detection. Left untreated, this infection can threaten tooth stability and overall health.
What payment options exist for dental crowns?
We provide detailed cost breakdowns considering damage severity, materials (all-ceramic or metal-free), and insurance coverage. Financing through CareCredit and membership plan discounts help manage expenses.
