Services
General Dentistry
Our general dentistry services focus on preventive care, including comprehensive exams, cleanings, and early detection of oral health issues. We use digital radiography and intraoral cameras to assess teeth, gums, and bone health. Treatments address cavities, gum disease, and enamel wear while emphasizing patient education for long-term oral wellness. This foundation of care ensures optimal dental health for patients of all ages.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer transformative cosmetic solutions like veneers, bonding, and teeth whitening to enhance smiles. Custom porcelain veneers correct discoloration and gaps, while composite bonding repairs minor imperfections. Invisalign aligners discreetly straighten teeth. Our dentists prioritize natural aesthetics, using advanced materials that mimic tooth structure for durable, visually appealing results that boost confidence.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through surgically placed titanium posts that fuse with jawbone tissue. We restore implants with crowns, bridges, or dentures for functional, natural-looking results. This service requires careful evaluation of bone density and gum health to ensure long-term success, offering patients stability and comfort comparable to natural teeth.
Children's Dentistry
Our child-friendly approach introduces young patients to dentistry through positive, educational experiences. We focus on preventive care, early orthodontic assessments, and habit counseling in a welcoming environment. By building trust and making visits enjoyable, we help children develop lifelong oral hygiene routines while addressing parents' concerns about dental development.
Dental Crowns
Custom dental crowns restore damaged or decayed teeth to their original shape and function. We use durable materials like porcelain-fused-to-metal or all-ceramic options that match natural tooth color. Crowns protect weakened teeth, improve aesthetics, and support dental bridges. The process involves precise preparation, temporary placement, and final cementation for lasting results.

Dr. Walker and the hygienist was very professional and friendly. They knew exactly what they were doing and got me in and out of the office without delay. I've been coming to Dr. Walker for about 35 years and have always had a positive experience! Marc Harrison

Dr Walker has been great. I've been here since 2020 - i was unhappy with the current dentist I had and needed a good dentist once things opened back up. They opened and worked to get me in as soon as possible. Every person I've met or talked to has been kind, caring and going over-board to make sure my experience is as good as it gets at a dentist. Dr. Walker even called the evening after my work was done to make sure I was okay.
Though everyone has been great, I had Christy today and wow! Customer service Could learn a lot from this young lady. Her work was precise and quick (as she could be) always checking to make certain I was comfortable, warm enough, needed a break. She worked diligently and was so pleasant the entire time. I am So glad my friend Yin got us to come over here! You won't regret it if you come!

My son is almost 4 and has not enjoyed our two previous dentist visits at a different dentist office. Our visit to Dr. Walker with dental hygienist Courtney was interesting and fun, although Bryson wasn't up for a cleaning, he did open his mouth wide and allow for a good tooth count and and check. He is looking forward to his next visit and says that he would like to go to my next appointment as an observer.

I haven't been to a dentist in quiet a while. I went in for deep clean on the right side of my mouth. Mind you I was petrified. Words can not express who greatly I am with Courtney. She was extremely gentle. She handle I guess you could like handling a new born baby. I could have ask for a more caring dental office and hygienist. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

I hadn't been to the dentist in about 35 years. I was very impressed with the professionalism of the staff and all. The greeting from Lindsey and Megan was very warm and friendly. (Yes all safety procedures in place, do to Covid). Them meeting Courtney was a blessing as well. I admit I was extremely nerves. Discuss every detail step by step and very gentle. Dr Walker was also amazing, gentle and detailed. Thank y'all so much. I really felt at ease and look forward to being a patient.
