Dental Implants
Our dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth using titanium posts that fuse with jawbone. All-on-4 technology allows full-arch restoration in one day. Implant-supported dentures offer stability and natural aesthetics for improved chewing function and confidence. Patients receive personalized treatment planning with 3D imaging and guided surgery.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, and smile makeovers to address discoloration, gaps, and misalignment. Cosmetic bonding corrects minor imperfections while crowns restore damaged teeth. Our treatments combine artistry with dental science to create natural-looking, long-lasting aesthetic improvements tailored to facial proportions.
General Dentistry
Our preventive services include cleanings, exams, and TMJ therapy to maintain oral health. We treat cavities with tooth-colored fillings and perform root canals to save infected teeth. Regular checkups help detect issues early, while LANAP laser dentistry offers advanced gum disease treatment with minimal discomfort.
Invisalign
Invisalign straightens teeth discreetly using custom clear aligners. Treatment addresses crowding, spacing, and bite issues for teens and adults. Aligners are removable for eating and cleaning, with average treatment duration of 12-18 months. Complimentary consultations determine candidacy for this orthodontic solution.
Emergency Dentist
We provide same-day care for broken teeth, toothaches, and extractions. Emergency treatments include pain management and temporary restorations to stabilize conditions. Our team prioritizes urgent cases with extended hours for after-hours dental trauma and infections requiring immediate attention.

Extremely grateful I found Premier Smile Center. The entire staff was amazing.very professional, knowledgeable, quick and efficient! Unfortunately they did not accept my insurance so I paid out of pocket but definitely worth it. They did work out a payment plan to make it work for me. The office was clean and staff was friendly and made me feel at home. If you need a dentist don't hesitate and book an appointment for outstanding service!

My internist highly recommended them, so I decided to give them a try. WOW! There is no other word to describe the amazing experience I had. Everyone was amazing and super thorough! I would highly recommend Premier Smile Center. I wish I would have known about them sooner! I'll never go anywhere else again, and I'm going to tell my husband and grown children they need to change their dentist to come here instead.

My dental hygienist Marcos was very friendly and helpful he explained clearly what work was being done and his recommendations. Normally I do not like going to the dentist but the atmosphere at Premier was friendly and the office is nice and clean. Appointments made have almost no wait time I was in the waiting room maybe 3 mins before the dental work started. Would definitely recommend this place.

I cannot recommend Premier Smile Center, Dr. Johnson, Lucas and the entire staff highly enough. They are a class act. I am just visiting and a veneer came off my front tooth the evening before Good Friday. I left them a message late Thursday night and they called me at 7:30 am on Good Friday and squeezed me in at 9 am. By 10 am, the job was done and my smile looked great! I am so grateful as I was leaving town on Monday to attend a professional conference with hundreds of colleagues I haven't seen for two years! I can't thank Premier Smile Center and its entire staff enough! They rose to the occasion and were amazing!
