Services
General Dentistry
Maintain optimal oral health with comprehensive general dentistry services at Small Dental. Our experienced team provides routine exams, professional cleanings, and restorative treatments including fillings, crowns, and bridges. We utilize advanced diagnostic tools for early detection of dental issues while emphasizing preventive care to maintain lifelong dental wellness. Our approach combines traditional techniques with modern innovations to ensure effective, comfortable treatment for patients of all ages.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Transform your smile with our expert cosmetic dentistry services. We offer porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, and Invisalign clear aligners to address aesthetic concerns. Our customized treatments enhance dental appearance while maintaining functionality, using high-quality materials that mimic natural tooth structure. Each procedure is performed with precision to deliver natural-looking results that boost confidence and improve overall facial aesthetics.
Dental Implants
Restore missing teeth with durable dental implant solutions. Our implant prosthetics provide permanent, natural-looking replacements that function like original teeth. The treatment involves surgical placement of titanium posts followed by custom crowns or bridges, preventing bone loss and maintaining proper bite alignment. This comprehensive solution offers superior stability and longevity compared to traditional dentures or bridges.
Sleep Apnea Solutions
Address sleep apnea with custom oral appliances designed to improve breathing during sleep. Our TAP 3 therapy devices reposition the jaw to keep airways open, reducing snoring and improving oxygen flow. These non-invasive alternatives to CPAP machines are comfortable, adjustable, and effective for managing mild to moderate sleep apnea while enhancing overall health and sleep quality.
Sedation Dentistry
Overcome dental anxiety with our sedation dentistry options. Performed by board-certified anesthesiologist Dr. Glenn Atlas, this service allows patients to receive comprehensive dental care while comfortably asleep. Ideal for complex procedures or anxious patients, it ensures stress-free treatment experiences while maintaining the highest safety standards through personalized sedation protocols.
