Our Dentistry Services

Our skilled team of dental experts can handle a wide range of dentistry needs, from teeth cleanings to complex dental restorations. Count on our experienced general dentist to provide services like: 

Implant Dentistry

Dental implants are surgical-grade root replacements for missing teeth. They’re anchored in the bone underneath the gums to create strength and stability for the crown mounted on top. The result is a long-lasting and natural-looking smile. We offer several options for implant dentistry, including:

  • Single tooth replacements 
  • Implant-supported dentures 
  • All-on-four/six fixed implant solution.

Endodontics

Endodontics refers to the treatment and diagnosis of problems with the tissues inside of the tooth. Our doctors are highly trained to repair these issues by performing root canal therapy or other procedures. These treatments can relieve pain and save your natural tooth.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions

Your third molars are called your wisdom teeth, & they’re the last four teeth to erupt. They generally come in between the ages of 17 & 25 but need to be removed for various reasons, including pain & crowding. 

Multiple Sedation Options available:

  • Nitrous Oxide
