Services
Dental Crowns
Custom porcelain crowns restore damaged teeth while maintaining natural aesthetics. Our CEREC technology enables same-day fabrication and placement. These restorations protect weakened teeth and improve bite functionality. Patients benefit from durable, metal-free materials that mimic natural tooth structure.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth using removable, transparent aligners. This orthodontic solution addresses crowding and spacing issues without traditional brackets. Patients appreciate the convenience of eating normally and maintaining oral hygiene during treatment.
Holistic Dentistry
Our holistic approach considers oral-systemic connections when planning treatments. We use biocompatibility testing to select safe materials for each patient. This methodology integrates dental care with overall health considerations for comprehensive wellness.
Dental Implants
Implant-supported restorations provide permanent solutions for missing teeth. Titanium posts fuse with jawbone tissue to create stable foundations. Patients regain full chewing function and prevent bone loss through this durable tooth replacement option.
Emergency Care
We prioritize same-day treatment for urgent dental issues like trauma or severe pain. Our team handles knocked-out teeth, broken restorations, and infection management. Immediate care helps preserve dental health and alleviate discomfort quickly.

My experience here was lovely from the first phone call when I got to talk to Dr. Shawn and Sue who were both kind and welcoming. Ashton is a very knowledgeable hygienist and was thorough not only in her cleaning but when explaining what she was doing and why which I really appreciated. I was given payment options since I don't have insurance and told the cost up front for replacing an optional filling.
The technology is also worth mentioning. Getting to see your teeth on the big screen was not only a treat, it was comforting to know that this office is using state of the art equipment. I also love the free t-shirt in the goodie bag! Do I really have to wait 6 months to come back?

I walked in this morning as a new patient and immediately felt as if I have always been a patient of Dr. Schlessel. He took the time to not only get to know me, but also made sure all my dental concerns were answered. He is super knowledgeable and friendly! From the moment I walked in the door everyone was very warm and friendly. I am getting married in July, and the staff were all interested in my planning and details on my big day. I would highly recommend Dr. Shawn Schlessel/ The Center for Advanced Dentistry for anyone looking for a new Dental home.

Having only had two sessions with this office, I am very pleased and comfortable with this team. The most important thing about this office for me so far - was the fact that the dentist and staff appear to be kind, easy to talk to and they did everything that they could to make me feel safe / at ease and cared for. I chose this team because it was referred to me by my Chiropractor Dr. Michael Polsinelli (they were the first to call me back when I really needed an alternative holistic dental team ASAP). Dr. Shawn Schessel also continued to check on me after the dental procedure (also gave me his personal cell phone - which I really have not needed). I am grateful at this time that they fit me in during a time when the weather as well as the challenges of COVID have been so prevelant.

All of the girls starting with the front desk are very friendly. Sandy was my dental hygienist today and always goes above and beyond and could not be more personable. Dr. Shawn is very knowledgeable and caring and has a nice touch. I highly recommend The Center for Advanced Dentistry.

Never thought I'd say "Wow! That was a great initial dental appointment!" -- but it's true. I've been trying to find a new dentist where I felt comfortable and confident and.well. I don't have to look any further. The staff is very friendly and compassionate; Dr. Shawn is clearly knowledgeable and professional -- even able to offer options for how to fix one of my crowns that needs fixing. I just wish I hadn't been so scared and procrastinated! Without question or hesitation, I would highly recommend The Center for Advanced Dentistry.
