Services
General Dentistry
Our team of dentists and hygienists do everything from dental cleanings to crowns to dentures to tooth extractions. Together we diagnose, treat, and manage your overall oral healthcare needs. We focus on preventing oral disease whenever possible and pride ourselves on quality routine dental care.
Cosmetic Dentistry
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your teeth, we will work with you to craft a beautiful, confident smile. Veneers, Teeth Whitening, and Invisalign are just a few of the tools we may use to give you the smile makeover you have always dreamed of.
Restorative Dentistry
Restoring your smile to optimal health and function is one of the primary services we offer as a general dentist. Over time your teeth may suffer wear and decay. Dental fillings, crowns, bridges, and implants allow us to fix missing, broken, or damaged teeth.

Why are regular dental visits important?
Regular check ups allow us to keep your teeth as clean as possible, and also stop potential problems before they take hold. This ultimately saves you time, money, and discomfort. We would certainly rather discover a problem when it is easily correctable than give you the bad news that your tooth may not be salvageable due to neglect.
Why do I need regular dental x-rays?
X-rays, or radiographs, help properly determine the state of your oral health. They allow us to see what can’t be seen with the naked eye, catch diseases in the early stages, and introduce us to potential tumors, cysts, or impacted teeth. They also allow us to monitor changes to your oral health over time.
