Services
Preventative Dentistry
Our preventative care focuses on maintaining oral health through regular checkups, professional cleanings, and patient education. We emphasize early detection of potential issues and personalized hygiene guidance to prevent dental problems before they develop. This approach helps patients maintain healthy smiles while minimizing the need for more extensive treatments.
Composite Fillings
We use tooth-colored composite resin to repair cavities and minor tooth damage. These durable fillings blend naturally with your smile while resisting staining better than traditional metal fillings. The material bonds directly to the tooth structure, preserving more natural tooth material during the restoration process.
Root Canals
Our root canal treatments eliminate infection from damaged teeth while preserving natural tooth structure. Using modern techniques, we remove infected pulp tissue, disinfect the root canals, and seal the tooth to prevent reinfection. This procedure relieves pain and saves teeth that would otherwise require extraction.
Crowns & Bridges
Porcelain crowns restore severely damaged teeth while dental bridges replace missing teeth by anchoring replacements to adjacent natural teeth. These custom-made restorations restore both function and aesthetics, providing durable solutions for structural tooth damage or gaps in your smile.
Porcelain Veneers
Custom-fabricated porcelain veneers address cosmetic concerns like stains, chips, and misalignment. These thin shells bond directly to tooth surfaces, creating uniform, natural-looking smiles. The procedure requires minimal tooth preparation while delivering long-lasting aesthetic improvements.

West Orem dental office is a great place to go so if you had a chipped teeth Dr Grant will fix it or he'll tell you we can try to save it which I know it happened to me he saved it and you'll never know the difference it's a family known business the staff is kind nice and lovable. If you ever want your teeth clean Dr Grant or Miss Nancy or do a good job on them they did a great job on my mouth and I love every minute of it and every moment.

I don't go to the dentist at often as I should. I decided to try this place out since it was 10 minutes away and had good reviews. I'm here to confirm they're right for anyone else wondering. They communicate well, attentive, and very nice.

My name is Ruby Duffy and as shameful as it is to say i hadn't been to a dentist in many years due to a horrible experience when i was younger and it showed. I decided it was time to stop making excuses and go, and i couldn't have landed in the care of a better doctor and staff than West Orem Dental Center. Doctor Grant was kind and gentle and although I'm a big crying chicken lol, Doctor Grant and this nurse was comforting and i am so grateful to them all. I would recommend this place to anyone without a second thought.

Heard about West Orem Dental from a family member and I promise you Dr. Grant and his team is the best! Lovett Dental has that feel of assembly line concept; money in but no quality work. I scurried on down to Dr. Grant lol and I found my dental home! You will be in good hands and he makes you feel fuzzy about your smile!

Absolutely the best dentist I've ever met. Professional, tech-savvy, more than fair with pricing and always welcoming. My teeth are in good hands and so should yours be. Give them a call and ask for promotions. They always have super affordable ones. Kudos.

Definitely the best dental office I've been to. If you prefer a family owned dental office over the chain/franchise places this is the place to go. The Dr took images of problematic teeth and explained clearly what was going on. The cleaning was gentle. Great office. I'll be back! Awesome customer service.
