Services
Sedation Dentistry
We offer oral conscious sedation and nitrous oxide to help anxious patients relax during dental procedures. These options allow you to remain conscious while feeling comfortable and at ease. Our team ensures proper monitoring throughout treatment while maintaining open communication with patients.
Dental Implants
Our implant services replace missing teeth using titanium posts that integrate with jawbone tissue. This permanent solution supports crowns, bridges, or dentures while preserving facial structure. We provide comprehensive care from implant placement to final restoration over multiple appointments.
Veneers
Custom porcelain veneers cover tooth imperfections like stains, chips, and gaps. This two-visit procedure requires minimal tooth preparation while delivering natural-looking results. We bond ultra-thin shells to front tooth surfaces for dramatic smile transformations.
Root Canals
We perform root canal therapy to save infected teeth by removing damaged pulp tissue. Using specialized techniques, we clean and seal root canals to eliminate pain while preserving natural tooth structure. This procedure typically saves teeth that would otherwise require extraction.
Periodontal Care
Our periodontal services address gum disease through scaling, root planing, and maintenance therapy. We treat chronic infections that threaten tooth and bone health while educating patients on effective home care routines to prevent disease progression.

I don't think it is possible to find a more caring, gentle and kind person. Dr Nate O'Connor is fantastic. My 11 year old son recently had two teeth pulled and felt absolutely no pain. Dr. Nate Oconner made him feel relaxed and calm during the whole procedure. We are so thankful for Dr. Nate!

This is the epitome of small town family dentist. Dr. O'Connor is thorough, professional and friendly. All the hygienists are all gentle and take time to listen. They also remember you and never feel rushed.

I had a wonderful experience at O'Connor Dentistry, everyone made me feel welcome and my fear of being in the Dentist chair went away. I also was delighted by their prices. I have found my permanent dentist.
