Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium screws surgically placed in the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide stable support for crowns, bridges, or dentures. This solution prevents bone loss and maintains facial structure. Ideal for patients seeking permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement solutions.
Same Day Dentures
Same day dentures provide full arch tooth replacement completed in a single visit. Using advanced imaging and pre-fabricated prosthetics, patients leave with functional teeth the same day as extractions. This eliminates multiple surgeries and months of healing required for traditional dentures.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom clear aligners to straighten teeth without metal braces. The removable trays gradually shift teeth into proper alignment over 6-18 months. This discreet solution suits adults and teens seeking orthodontic treatment without compromising aesthetics.
Periodontal Surgery
Periodontal surgery treats advanced gum disease through procedures like pocket reduction and bone grafting. These interventions halt tissue destruction, restore gum health, and prevent tooth loss. Post-treatment care includes specialized home routines and maintenance schedules.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening removes deep stains using hydrogen peroxide-based gels. In-office treatments achieve dramatic results in one hour, while take-home kits provide gradual whitening over two weeks. Maintenance protocols help preserve the brighter smile long-term.

Been going here for years. Everyone is very nice. I met Jessica, the dental hygienist, today and she's cleaning was (practically) pain free. Good experience as far as cleanings go!

I got really really screwed over by these guys and am still paying the price many years later. Be very careful if you are a client of theirs. They used a cheap implant that they bought online (not a name brand) that failed within a month of being used. The crown was such poor quality and a disaster that it failed within a month and was loose for a long time. Had to spend over $13,000 fixing all of their hideous mistakes, causing years of pain and agony.
The office had to nerve to charge me $300 each time I tried to visit to get it resolved, so I gave up and ate the costs, also did not trust them at all. Oral surgeon and new dentist were appalled at what happened, as they never saw anyone get screwed over as much as me. This place should be shut down by the state for what they do to people. Nobody knows about implants or cheap brands (I paid over $5,500 so it wasn't even cheap, they just made more money out of me and $2,500 for the crown). Such a scam DO NOT COME HERE!
