Services
Dental Implants
Our dental implant services provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts that fuse with jawbone tissue. This advanced treatment restores chewing function and prevents bone loss while offering natural-looking aesthetics. Patients benefit from improved speech clarity and long-term oral health stability through our implant dentistry expertise.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments effectively remove deep stains using medical-grade bleaching agents. Our customized trays and in-office procedures address discoloration from coffee, wine, or aging while minimizing tooth sensitivity. Patients achieve visibly brighter smiles through safe, dentist-supervised whitening protocols.
Crowns
Custom dental crowns restore damaged teeth strength and appearance using porcelain or ceramic materials. This restorative treatment protects weakened teeth after root canals while improving shape and color consistency. Our crowns provide durable, natural-looking solutions for cracked or severely decayed teeth.
Preventive Care
Comprehensive preventive care includes regular cleanings, exams, and oral cancer screenings to maintain optimal dental health. Our hygienists use advanced techniques to remove plaque buildup while educating patients on effective home care routines. Early detection of potential issues helps prevent costly treatments through proactive maintenance.
Emergency Dental Treatment
We provide prompt treatment for dental emergencies including chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth. Our team stabilizes traumatic injuries using temporary restorations while developing long-term recovery plans. Patients receive immediate pain management and infection prevention for various dental trauma situations.

I'm never disappointed with the care I get at Isthmus Dental. Today it was repair of a lost filling and it was stress free perfect. Dr Wozniak and Heidi are the Dynamic Duo of dental treatment.

As someone who was never a fan of the dentist. These people are great. I like it being small so they can be personable and get to know you. The girls at the front desk are such sweethearts and are really good on reminding you about your appointment!
