Your first visit is dedicated to understanding your oral health goals and concerns. You'll meet with our doctors for a comprehensive examination including low-dose digital X-rays, periodontal gum measurements, and an oral cancer screening. We take time to discuss our findings with you on high-definition chairside monitors and develop a clear, personalized care plan without pressure.
CEREC allows us to measure, mill, and place a permanent porcelain crown in a single visit lasting about 90 minutes. Rather than biting into gooey impression material and wearing a plastic temporary crown for two weeks, we take a 3D digital optical scan. The crown is sculpted chairside and milled on-site from high-strength dental ceramic, so you leave with your permanent tooth restored.
LANAP is an FDA-cleared, scalpel-free laser procedure for moderate to severe gum disease. Using the PerioLaseĀ® MVP-7ā¢ laser, we selectively vaporize diseased bacteria and tissue while leaving healthy tissue intact. This encourages the natural regeneration of jawbone and gum attachment around teeth, offering faster recovery and far less discomfort than traditional surgical cutting.
Yes! We love caring for patients of all ages and welcoming entire families. While very young children with severe dental phobias or specialized needs may occasionally benefit from a pediatric specialist, we have no age restrictions and create a warm, gentle environment for kids and teens.
Our advanced dental lasers use concentrated light and water droplets to gently remove tooth decay and shape tissue without the friction, heat, and vibration that cause pain with traditional drills. Because the laser naturally desensitizes nerve endings during treatment, many cavity preparations can be completed without local anesthetic injections.
