Services
General Dentistry
Our comprehensive general dentistry services include exams, cleanings, and restorative treatments to maintain optimal oral health. We focus on preventive care while addressing existing dental issues through fillings, extractions, and bite adjustments. Patients benefit from early detection of oral health problems through digital imaging and cancer screenings.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments effectively remove stains caused by food, drinks, and aging. We offer customized take-home trays with prescription-strength bleaching gel for gradual whitening and in-office treatments for immediate results. Our dentists ensure safe application to minimize tooth sensitivity.
Crowns
Dental crowns restore damaged or weakened teeth with durable porcelain or ceramic restorations. We use precise digital impressions to create custom-fitted crowns that match natural tooth color and shape. This treatment protects cracked teeth and supports dental bridges or implants.
Periodontal Therapy
We treat gum disease through scaling, root planing, and maintenance programs. Our approach focuses on eliminating infection while preserving supporting bone structure. Patients receive personalized oral hygiene guidance to prevent progression of periodontal disease.
Emergency Dental Care
Our team addresses dental emergencies including chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth. We provide same-day appointments for trauma cases and implement immediate stabilization techniques. Patients receive clear aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent complications.

The staff at this office are amazing, especially for someone like me who has severe dental anxiety. This dental office has been the most accommodating I have ever visited. They do not recommend unnecessary treatments and their prices appear to be very fair once insurance is taken into account.

A little pushy on sales. They call you and send mail to "remind" you of cleanings and such. Some ppl may like this, I do not. The calling several times to get me to make an appt when Im working bothers me.

I've had pretty serious dental anxiety for most of my life (someone being in your face and mouth just feels too personal). So it means something when I say this office is full of the friendliest and most comforting individuals! Dr. Healy has done a couple of fillings that I needed - I couldn't even feel her numb me she was so good! A great office that has always worked to accommodate my schedule, I couldn't be happier!

First time patient here, they are extremely warm, welcoming and professional. I called them about a toothache and they were able to see me the same day! I especially loved how they check up on you through text after appointments and I was able to message them any concerns. Great hours, open late and on Saturdays so I didn't have to miss work.

I have Dental PTSD, so am very picky who I let even LOOK at all my dental work. I've been with Dr. Osborn as well as his father and hopefully will until I die. They are "primo!"

I had a dental emergency in February, and north pines dental was able to see me same day and get me taken care of. I've since been back for a cleaning and to have some cavities filled. I had been avoiding the dentist for a bit, but my experience here has been nothing but wonderful and I couldn't recommend them more!
