Services
Dental Implants
Replacing missing teeth with guided implant placement, these titanium posts fuse with jawbone for permanent solutions. Certified in Hybridge technique, we offer full arch restoration with natural-looking results. Patients benefit from improved bite strength, confidence, and long-term oral health through this gold-standard tooth replacement.
CEREC Crowns
Customized dental crowns created in one visit using CAD/CAM technology. This eliminates temporary crowns and multiple appointments while maintaining precise fit and aesthetics. Patients receive durable, natural-looking restorations within an hour through our in-house fabrication process.
Laser Dentistry
Minimally invasive procedures using Solea laser technology that often eliminate drills and anesthesia. This approach reduces discomfort during treatments like gum disease therapy while promoting faster healing through precise soft tissue recontouring capabilities.
Bone Grafting
Rebuilding jawbone structure to support dental implants through socket preservation and ridge augmentation techniques. This in-house service addresses bone loss from missing teeth, creating proper foundation for implants while preventing facial structure deterioration.
Tooth Extractions
Minimally invasive extraction of problem teeth including impacted wisdom teeth. Using IV sedation and advanced techniques, we remove damaged or diseased teeth efficiently while preserving surrounding structures. Immediate implant placement options available for tooth replacement.

Questions
What makes dental implants the best tooth replacement option?
Dental implants mimic natural teeth functionally and aesthetically, with 95%+ success rate and potential lifetime durability. They preserve jawbone structure unlike other replacement options.
Can I get dental implants if I have jawbone loss?
Yes, we offer bone grafting procedures to create proper foundation for implants. This in-house service addresses bone loss from missing teeth while preventing facial structure deterioration.
Are dental implant procedures painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort through our IV sedation options and Solea laser technology. Many procedures achieve 95% anesthesia-free results with gentle, minimally invasive techniques.
Can tooth extraction and implant placement happen same day?
In most cases, we remove teeth and place implants immediately using guided surgery. CEREC technology provides permanent crowns the same day for complete treatment in one visit.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, implants can last lifetime. The titanium post typically remains stable while crowns may need replacement every 10-15 years due to normal wear through daily use.
What technology improves implant outcomes?
We use cone beam CT scanning for 3D imaging, guided surgery for precise placement, and Solea laser for minimally invasive procedures. CEREC technology creates accurate crowns in-house within an hour.
