Services
Laser Dentistry
Our Waterlase Dentistry system combines laser energy with water for precise, comfortable treatments. This technology enables drill-free cavity removal, gum disease therapy, and tissue reshaping with minimal anesthesia required. Patients benefit from faster healing times and reduced post-operative discomfort compared to traditional methods.
Dental Implants
Titanium-based tooth root replacements integrate with jawbone tissue for permanent tooth restoration. We offer single implants, implant-supported dentures, and all-on-4 solutions using high-quality porcelain crowns. Our success rate exceeds 95% with proper candidate selection and post-operative care.
Invisalign
Clear aligner therapy straightens teeth without traditional braces. Custom-fitted trays gradually reposition teeth over 6-18 months, treating crowding, spacing, and bite issues. Patients enjoy removable aligners for eating and cleaning, with treatment monitoring through periodic check-ups.
Teeth Whitening
Professional-grade whitening solutions remove deep stains using EPIC X diode laser technology or custom take-home trays. In-office treatments achieve 8-10 shade improvement in one hour, while home kits provide gradual results over two weeks with dentist-formulated gels.
Emergency Care
Same-day treatment for toothaches, broken teeth, and lost fillings/crowns. Our protocol includes immediate diagnostics, pain management, and infection control. Emergency patients receive priority scheduling during operating hours with after-hours phone support for urgent concerns.

Dr. Maxwell is great. Talented. Friendly. He does have the latest technology there in his office as well. The only issue I had there was that the x-ray he did was not covered by my insurance. Unfortunately, I was not informed ahead of time that it would not be covered. My routine dentist appointment, with insurance, had a bill of almost $160. They were able to make a small bill adjustment afterwards, but still it will cost $125ish. It would've been nice if they had asked me ahead of time if I wanted to opt for the x-ray that was going to cost $144 out of pocket.

I've been going to Crestwood Dental for a couple of years now and have nothing but great experiences. I've never had to wait in the waiting room for more than 5 minutes and the staff is super friendly. I've had cleanings, crown replacement, and teeth whitening done. They have always made me feel very comfortable and I've been very pleased with all the results!
