Dental Implants
Dental implants restore missing teeth with titanium posts fused to the jawbone, offering durability and natural aesthetics. Our team uses 3D imaging and guided surgery for precise placement. Ideal for patients seeking permanent solutions, implants support crowns, bridges, or dentures. With a focus on long-term success, we ensure osseointegration and provide a 5-year warranty for added confidence in your investment.
Invisalign
Invisalign straightens teeth discreetly using custom, removable aligners. Our AI-powered planning creates a virtual model of your smile transformation. Weekly remote monitoring by orthodontists ensures progress without frequent visits. Clear aligners suit adults and teens seeking aesthetic alternatives to braces, allowing unrestricted eating and oral hygiene while achieving optimal alignment.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy saves infected teeth by removing inflamed pulp, cleaning canals, and sealing them with bioceramic materials. Using CBCT imaging and rotary files, we ensure precision and comfort. Post-treatment crowns protect restored teeth. This procedure alleviates pain, prevents extraction, and preserves natural dentition with success rates exceeding 95% when properly maintained.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening removes stains using ZOOM technology, achieving visible results in one visit. The LED-activated gel targets discoloration without enamel damage. Custom take-home kits ensure maintenance flexibility. Safe for sensitive teeth, treatments last up to three years with proper care, enhancing confidence through a radiant, youthful smile.
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns and bridges repair damaged or missing teeth with Zirconia or Emax materials for strength and aesthetics. Digital impressions eliminate traditional molds, ensuring accurate fit. Crowns cover weakened teeth post-root canal, while bridges fill gaps using adjacent teeth or implants for support. These restorations last 10-15 years with proper oral hygiene and regular checkups.

Report
Dr. Matthias is a good dentist. However the office staff is very unprofessional. Two years ago I received $400 surprises bill. I paid it and had to talk to them about it. This year I received another $400 surprise bill. All I wanted was to clarify with my insurance before my visits, which is a standard procedure. I switched to another dentist.
