Holistic Dentistry
Our holistic dentistry approach considers oral health's impact on overall wellness. We use biocompatible materials and mercury-free techniques to address dental issues while supporting systemic health. Patients benefit from reduced exposure to toxins and treatments that align with natural healing processes.
Dental Implants
Advanced implantology services restore missing teeth with zirconia or titanium implants. Using cutting-edge technology, we ensure durable, natural-looking results that improve function and aesthetics. Our team specializes in complex cases requiring bone grafting or sinus lifts.
Children's Dentistry
Comprehensive preventive care for children includes exams, cleanings, and early intervention. Our gentle approach creates positive dental experiences while monitoring development. We educate families on home care and nutrition to establish lifelong oral health habits.
Teeth Whitening
In-office Philips Zoom whitening brightens smiles up to eight shades in 45 minutes. This safe, effective treatment removes stains from coffee, wine, or smoking. Custom take-home kits maintain results for patients seeking gradual improvement.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation options help anxious patients receive necessary care comfortably. Techniques range from nitrous oxide to oral conscious sedation. Our team ensures safe, controlled administration while maintaining patient dignity during procedures.

I'm still a patient here because of the particular services they provide but the customer service seems to depend on who referred you to their practice. You have to clarify for them who referred you before they will give you any information, even as an existing patient. Protocols for amalgam removal preparation range from "there aren't any" to only a protocol for the days leading up to the procedure, or only a protocol for after the procedure, depending on who answers the phone. They don't follow through with return calls or follow up.

We came here for a second opinion because we were not confident in a previous recommendation. Dr. Yang took the time to inform, explain and educate us on the best options. She put us at ease knowing we had a plan for care and treatment. Thank you Dr. Yang for listening to our concerns.

Dr. Karl is truly amazing! He has a vast array of skills one of which spared me from many more years of chronic sinus infections. He found out my roots to my wisdom teeth had been left for years causing toxins. Thanks to Dr. Karl I can breathe and smell again!

Got me in quickly and took care of my issue without a problem. I've been going to this dentist's office for 30 plus years and they've always done well by me.
