Services
Dental Crowns
Custom dental crowns restore damaged teeth using durable materials like Emax and Zirconia. Our same-day CEREC technology creates precise restorations in one visit. Crowns protect weakened teeth, repair fractures, and support dental bridges while maintaining natural aesthetics.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments remove deep stains through in-office bleaching or customized take-home kits. Our solutions safely lighten enamel by up to eight shades while minimizing sensitivity. We offer personalized plans for lasting results that complement existing dental work.
Preventive Dentistry
Comprehensive preventive care includes bi-annual checkups, digital X-rays, and professional cleanings. We employ advanced diagnostics to detect early decay and gum disease while providing protective treatments like fluoride applications and nightguards for bruxism patients.
Periodontal Treatment
Scaling and root planing procedures treat gum disease by removing bacterial buildup below the gumline. Antibiotic therapy with Arestin targets infection pockets while patient education emphasizes long-term oral hygiene maintenance for improved systemic health outcomes.
Restorative Dentistry
Tooth-colored fillings and root canal therapy preserve natural dental structure. Our minimally invasive approach prioritizes conservative treatments using biocompatible materials that restore function and aesthetics without compromising oral health.

Questions
How often should I schedule dental checkups?
Most patients benefit from bi-annual checkups and cleanings. Those with gum disease may require more frequent visits for optimal oral health maintenance.
What options exist for dental insurance coverage?
We accept most major PPO plans and verify coverage through our online tool. Patients without insurance can join our in-house savings plan or use CareCredit financing for flexible payments.
How does same-day crown technology work?
CEREC technology allows us to design, fabricate, and place crowns in one visit using digital impressions and in-office milling machines, eliminating traditional lab wait times.
What should I do for a dental emergency?
Call our office immediately for same-day appointments. Our team provides first aid guidance over the phone and prioritizes emergency cases to relieve pain and restore dental function quickly.
Can I whiten teeth with existing dental work?
Teeth whitening treatments effectively brighten natural enamel but won't change the color of crowns or fillings. We recommend professional whitening before restorative procedures for uniform results.
