General Dentistry
Our general dentistry services focus on preventative care and oral health maintenance. We provide comprehensive exams, digital X-rays, cleanings, and treatments for issues like bad breath and tooth decay. Using modern techniques like air abrasion and fluoride treatments, we help patients preserve natural teeth and prevent future dental problems through early detection and education.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We specialize in transforming smiles through advanced cosmetic procedures. Services include porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, NTI-TSS devices for TMJ relief, and tooth-colored fillings. Our team addresses discoloration, misalignment, and damaged teeth to create natural-looking, confidence-boosting results while maintaining functional dental health and durability.
Dental Implants
Our implant dentistry restores missing or damaged teeth with permanent, natural-feeling solutions. We offer single and multiple tooth implants, full mouth reconstruction, and implant-supported dentures. This service includes bone grafting when necessary to ensure stable implant placement, providing long-term functionality and aesthetic improvement for patients with missing teeth.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services address tooth discoloration caused by age, diet, or lifestyle factors. We provide in-office and take-home whitening systems using safe, effective bleaching agents to achieve dramatic results. This popular cosmetic treatment enhances smiles quickly while minimizing sensitivity through customized application methods.
Dental Cleanings
Regular dental cleanings form the foundation of oral health. Our hygienists remove plaque and tartar buildup, perform oral cancer screenings, and provide personalized hygiene education. These routine visits help prevent gum disease, cavities, and other dental issues while allowing early detection of potential problems needing intervention.

After a very traumatic experience with a different dentist I am so appreciative of everything Dr. McGeorge and staff have done for me. Karen is an absolute treasure. Being the first contact point she is very warm, thorough, precise, professional and a delight to know. Everyone I have met (Enrique, Sandra, Diana, Nancy, Kathy S, Shannon, Kathy J) are ALL very professional, friendly and pleasant. Chuck who does dentures etc is a wizard. My sincere gratitude to all of them, for their patient, kind and gentle services. A great place to go and I, like most people, do not like to go to the dentist.

I can't recommend this dental office enough! Dr. Nicholas St. George and E.N. St. George (son and father) are not only compassionate and caring, they are experts on all of the latest dental technology and techniques. I have always dreaded going to the dentist, until I found this office. Unfortunately for me, I have needed a lot of work ranging from fillings, teeth whitening, and multiple root canals. All of my cleanings and dental work have been completely painless. I don't just love the dentists either! The office staff, hygienists, and assistants are all amazing and friendly.

I've been going to this dentist office for about 40 years! The office staff is friendly, and everyone makes you feel like family. They use state of the art dentistry, and every procedure is virtually painless! Though I don't even live in the area, I drive the distance to visit this wonderful office!

Everyone who works here is amazing. I love their patience and understanding with those of us who are still nervous with dental procedures. Neither doctor will let you leave the chair until they are satisfied that the work is up to their standard and their standard is very high. The hygienists are amazing and I am convinced that I would have fewer teeth in my mouth if is wasn't for their diligent effort and education. Almost eleven years ago I switched my then four year old to their office and have never regretted it.

Dr. St. George has always been not only the best Dentist I've ever seen, but the most welcoming. When you arrive, it's very apparent that everyone in the office genuinely cares not only about your dental health, but your overall well-being as a whole. They're extremely attentive to anything you may need, are always there to welcome you with a (very nice) smile, and make sure that you're well taken care of before you step foot out of their office. I would highly recommend visiting Dr. St. George as it's the rare case where you can actually look forward to going to the Dentist instead of avoiding it!

Simply the best experience I've ever had. Dr. Nick and staff are so friendly and welcoming they're just amazing. I highly recommend them they truly care about their patients.

I have been going to Dr. St. George senior for years. His son Nicholas is now a part of the team although I've never been seen by him I can definitely suggest either one of them. The whole staff is absolutely professional courteous and kind. The doctors are amazing they're very thorough, professional and most of all they care! I 100% recommend Dr. St. George Senoir and Dr. Nicholas St George!!
Mary King-Batiste
I love, love, love the dentists and the staff. Everyone is so courteous and kind and personable! Most people hate going to the dentist office but Dr. St George Sr and Dr St George Jr makes it an absolute joy! They are naturals in making you feel at ease and comfortable before talking to you about the procedure to be performed. I smile more than I ever have now that many of my dental issues are being taken care of. Thank you both for the excellent work you have done thus far... I hope to be a customer for life!
