Lumineers
Lumineers provide a painless, long-lasting smile transformation without removing tooth structure. These ultra-thin porcelain shells bond to teeth in two appointments, offering permanent whitening and a natural appearance. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, they resist staining and maintain aesthetics for up to 20 years.
Teeth Whitening
Our take-home Lumibrite and Opalescence treatments safely whiten smiles in 1-2 weeks. Customized peroxide concentrations ensure effective results while minimizing sensitivity. The viscous gel formula prevents migration, protecting soft tissues and maintaining tray placement for consistent whitening outcomes.
Sapphire Plus Lesion Detection
This advanced oral cancer screening uses blue fluorescence to identify abnormal tissue invisible under standard lighting. Early detection improves survival rates from 28% to 82%. The technology detects HPV-related lesions and aids in diagnosing precancerous conditions during routine examinations.
Sleep Apnea Therapy
Custom oral appliances treat obstructive sleep apnea by maintaining airway patency during sleep. Our board-certified specialists collaborate with physicians to optimize medical insurance coverage and ensure proper device fit for improved sleep quality and daytime alertness.
Periodontal Therapy
Comprehensive gum disease treatment includes scaling, root planing, and maintenance protocols. Our hygienists emphasize oral-systemic health connections, addressing inflammation that impacts overall wellness. Personalized education helps patients maintain periodontal health between visits.
