You want a healthy, comfortable, and attractive smile.  We offer comprehensive dental care to help you achieve your goals. Dentistry, like medicine, has grown in sophistication so that no one practitioner can do “everything” well, so care extends to working with a superb group of specialists when appropriate.

• KEEPING YOU COMFORTABLE
  We are proud to be one of the few practices in the area using “The Wand” system for providing local anesthetic. The Wand utilizes a microprocessor-controlled metering system, which greatly reduces the discomfort of receiving anesthetic.

  The finest care is of no value if fear or anxiety prevents you from accessing it. You will be treated with both discretion and respect, and we will help you overcome any such obstacles to getting the care you need

• KNOWLEDGE
  Problem-focused exams for dental emergencies.
  Complete examinations for new patients. A separate consultation visit to discuss your needs and options is included.
  Periodic exams to keep you on focus and on track.
• PREVENTION
  Dental cleanings get your teeth clean and your gums healthy. Make that smile shine!

  1. Desensitizing varnish for some types of sensitive teeth.
  2. Nightguards to prevent damage from clenching. Dayguards too!
  3. Protective mouthguards for high impact sports.

  Periodontal (gum) care for patients with more severe problems. Non-surgical care is available in our office. For more complex and/or refractory cases I work with some of the finest specialists anywhere.

• REPAIR
  Fillings made of tooth colored composite. This non-metallic material avoids some of the environmental problems of silver mercury fillings, is far more attractive, and can provide internal reinforcement instead of wedging teeth apart.
  Crowns, made of a variety of materials, help more badly damaged teeth “stay in the game” and stay in function.
  Endodontic (“root canal”) treatment is a procedure which helps keep a tooth that might otherwise be lost as an asset

  Extractions. Sometimes a tooth cannot be retained. Simple extractions can be done in our office.

• REPLACEMENT

  Implant supported crowns can replace teeth missing due to injury or disease. Our office can provide crowns that are both functional and beautiful. Implants themselves are best placed by specialists; we have superb referrals available.
  Fixed bridgework can be made of a variety of materials to replace missing teeth.

  Removable bridges (dentures), either partial or complete, are available and can often be combined with implants for greater stability.

• BEAUTY

  Dingy teeth make you look older. Tooth whitening is available to give you a brighter smile and help “role back the calendar”.
  Missing teeth can ruin a smile. Replacements can add both beauty and function.

  Misshapen or too-small teeth can be beautified with veneers and tooth colored fillings.

  Crooked teeth often have structural as well as cosmetic problems. We have a solid working relationship with several fine orthodontists in the immediate area.
