Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium posts fused with jawbone. Our implant-trained dentists perform surgical placement and restoration using advanced imaging technology. Patients benefit from improved chewing function, natural aesthetics, and long-term oral health preservation through bone stimulation that prevents facial structure deterioration.
Orthodontics
We offer traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners for correcting misaligned teeth and bite issues. Our dentists create customized treatment plans using digital imaging to achieve optimal alignment. Benefits include improved oral hygiene access, reduced wear on tooth enamel, and enhanced facial aesthetics through properly positioned teeth and jaws.
Teeth Whitening
Philips Zoom professional whitening systems safely lighten teeth by multiple shades in-office or through take-home kits. Our dentists ensure proper application to minimize sensitivity while removing deep stains from food, drinks, or smoking. Results provide immediate aesthetic improvement with lasting effects through proper maintenance.
Root Canals
Advanced root canal therapy removes infected pulp tissue while preserving natural tooth structure. Using specialized microscopes and rotary instruments, we thoroughly clean and seal root canals to eliminate pain and prevent reinfection. This procedure saves teeth that would otherwise require extraction, maintaining natural bite function.
Pediatric Dentistry
Our child-friendly approach introduces young patients to dental care through positive reinforcement and age-appropriate explanations. Services include preventive cleanings, fluoride treatments, and early orthodontic evaluations. We focus on establishing lifelong oral hygiene habits while making visits comfortable and educational for children of all ages.

I have really bad dental anxiety, and went in feeling fearful. However, coming in they made me feel super comfortable, and taken care of. I'm really happy I choose to come here because not only did they take my feelings into consideration, but they have given me ample knowledge about what they're doing. Super happy!

Dr. Riley Santin is very patient and takes extra time to explain and educated me on what the issue is, how the tooth functions and the best process for a resolution. He is very kind and his modern dentistry is so much less painful. All the office staff were friendly and answered all my questions, making me feel important. Great customer service! Dr. Santin's assistant also provided great care and kindness. Highly recommended.

Island view dental is 5 stars. The facility is clean and the staff are personable and friendly. If you have to cancel an appointment they will try to get you back in right away and not have to wait too long to be serviced on teeth. All the doctors provide phenomenal care but I personally love to see Dr. Santin and his hygienist Lindsey. They are in network with most insurances which help make the decision even better for care.

I can not recommend Island View Dental enough. I have a lot of general anxiety around visiting the dentist due to past experiences but Dr. Kearns and his staff have changed my opinion that all dental work is inherently traumatic. They listened to my concerns and went out of their way to accommodate my schedule to get me taken care of quickly and efficiently. I don't see myself going anywhere else for dental care!
