Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants are permanent artificial tooth roots that restore missing teeth functionality and aesthetics. Our practice offers precise implant placement using advanced imaging technology for long-term success. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability, natural appearance, and preservation of jawbone structure.
All-On-4
All-On-4 provides full-arch tooth replacement using four strategically placed implants. This technique eliminates the need for bone grafting in many cases, allowing immediate denture attachment. Patients achieve a stable, permanent smile restoration in a single day with reduced healing time.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting restores deficient jawbone structure to support dental implants. We use synthetic or natural bone substitutes to promote regeneration, ensuring sufficient foundation for successful implant placement. This procedure enhances candidacy for restorative treatments while maintaining facial contours.
Sedation
Sedation dentistry offers comfortable care for patients with dental anxiety. Options include nitrous oxide, oral sedatives, and IV anesthesia administered by experienced professionals. This ensures stress-free treatment while maintaining safety through pre-operative health screening.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth extraction prevents overcrowding and infection risks from impacted molars. Our practice performs surgical removal under local anesthesia or sedation, with post-operative care instructions to ensure proper healing and minimize discomfort during recovery.

Amazing office. Everyone so caring and helpful. Medications were called in prior to firat stage of procedure l, so I had them before I had the bone graph, now time has to pass for the remainder of my procedure. Dr. Mellas is awesome, as is Gwen and the rest of the staff. I even got a call last night from Dr. Mellas checking on me after my procedure. Highly recommended if you need dental work. They sincerely care about their patients.

I have a pretty tragic story of how I came to Dr. Mellas's office. I had fallen from losing consciousness onto my laminate flooring. I shattered my three front teeth. One tooth actually went up into my jaw! I went to my general dentist who said this was beyond what he could do and sent me to Dr. Mellas. From start to now finish I can't begin to explain how amazing this office is. All the staff treated me with such care and understanding with my situation.

I had three teeth extractions with bone grafting. Then after three months my implant surgery. And now it's been three months after that surgery and I'm ready to have my final restoration of my smile! Dr. Mellas is extremely skilled and professional. His easy demeanor helped me through all my surgeries. And at every check up he was so thrilled at the results and that really put me at ease. His entire staff is so friendly and so kind.

I really couldn't do this without Dr. Mellas and his team. Thank you SO much! I would without a doubt recommend this office for extractions, bone grafting and implant needs. There is a reason he has 5 stars!

I had a great experience at Dr Mellas' office. He is a total professional. He is a straight shooter and explains the situation in a clear and succinct manner that non-medical folks can understand. I will be sure to refer everyone I know who require his services.

My daughter, age 19 just had four fully impacted wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Mallas. Dr. Mallas did an amazing job. He is very considered, caring, very calm, and gentle. His team is very caring, professional, kind and accommodating. Within past two days after surgery we have refered 4 friends to have their wisdom teeth removal at Dr. Mallas's office. Dr. Mallas and his staff also checked on me later on after the surgery. Greatest and most comforting treatment. Thank you Dr. Mallas snd team. You are THE BEST.
