Teeth Cleaning
Regular teeth cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, preventing cavities, gingivitis, and gum disease. Our hygienists use advanced tools for thorough yet gentle cleanings, ensuring long-term oral health. Patients receive personalized advice on maintaining hygiene between visits.
Teeth Whitening
Our Zoom and Kor Whitening systems deliver fast, effective results for a radiant smile. Treatments are tailored to sensitivity levels, ensuring comfort while eliminating stains from coffee, smoking, or aging. Long-lasting effects boost confidence and aesthetics.
Teeth Alignment
Invisalign Invisible Braces straighten teeth discreetly using custom aligners. This method corrects misalignment without metal brackets, offering convenience and comfort. Patients enjoy improved bite function and a confident, straight smile.
Dental Implants
Dental implants restore missing teeth with durable, natural-looking solutions. Using Nobel Biocare systems, we ensure secure integration with the jawbone. Implants enhance chewing ability, speech, and facial structure permanently.

Start to finish everything went well. When you walk in it's a nice waiting area. The staff are extremely kind and helpful. The care they provide for their patron is perfect. Like some dentist office I've been too it seemed like they were money hungry and wanted to charge you for stuff you don't need done this place actually cares about your finances and looks out for the best for you. Highly recommend this place for all your dentist needs.

The front desk staff are awesome! My favorite dentist is Dr. Colon. He's smart, up-to-date on all the new equipment & techniques, very thorough and very easy to talk to regarding treatment options. They are also on-time for appointments!

Beautiful office, but they never called me back for an appointment after saying I had 3 cavities. I called them back twice to set up an appointment and there was an insurance problem? Idk two months past by and the only response I got was a bill for the X-rays. By then I already found a new dentist in aiea who got me right. Super frustrating overall, hope I was the only one.

Today, Hygienist, Ryan helped my son feel comfortable and made the experience fun; my son was in tears before the appt not wanting to go and when we left said he likes the dentist and wants to go back. Our whole ohana goes to Kailua Dental Care.

I have been a patient at Kailua Dental Care for 8 or 9 yrs now and would never go anywhere else. All of the office staff, from the front desk to the technicians and dentists, are always cheerful, welcoming and highly skilled using the latest techniques and technology in dental care. I'd highly recommend you schedule an appt to see for yourself. You will not be disappointed. How many people can say they look forward to seeing their dentist?!

Feb 6. I may have been a bit confused about my last minute appointment granted after advising that about a bridge having fallen out a day earlier, as a scheduled cleaning for Feb 9, was also wonderfully performed by Lisa on Feb 6. Dr. Sonson fixed and restored the bridge albeit possibly only temporarily. Kailua Dental Care goes well beyond normal treatments to ensure patients received the best care possible. They are great!
