Services
Emergency Treatment
Our same-day emergency dental care addresses urgent oral health issues like tooth pain, broken teeth, and dental trauma. With immediate attention from our experienced team, patients receive prompt relief and preventive care to avoid future complications. Available during regular business hours, this service ensures timely intervention for optimal recovery outcomes.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer comprehensive cosmetic dental solutions including porcelain veneers, smile bonding, and professional teeth whitening. These treatments address discoloration, misalignment, and imperfections to create natural-looking, confidence-boosting smiles. Our personalized approach combines aesthetic expertise with advanced materials for long-lasting, transformative results that complement each patient's facial features.
Dental Implants
Our dental implant services provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium root replacements topped with custom crowns. This restorative treatment restores chewing function while preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure. With proper care, implants offer durable, natural-feeling alternatives to traditional dentures or bridges.
Invisalign
We provide Invisalign clear aligner therapy for discreet teeth straightening without traditional metal braces. Custom-made trays gradually reposition teeth over time while allowing easy removal for eating and cleaning. This treatment addresses crowding, spacing, and bite issues with a nearly invisible solution suitable for both adults and teens.
Sedation Dentistry
Our sedation options help patients with dental anxiety or complex treatment needs experience comfortable procedures. From mild sedatives to deeper relaxation techniques, we tailor approaches to individual requirements while maintaining strict safety protocols. This service enables completion of multiple procedures in fewer visits with reduced stress and discomfort.

Elite Dental owned by Dr. Tom Lewis is Wonderful! Their professionalism, caring attitudes, and superb service are just a few of the attributes I most admire about Elite Dental in LaVista, NE. I live in Lincoln, NE and it is well worth my short drive to LaVista. I highly recommend this dental office! Dr. Lewis is a very skilled, gentle, and innovative dentist. I love their dental hygienist, Beth. She is thorough, has a great personality, and very professional. Their office personal is courteous, friendly, and helpful. Thank you, Elite Dental! Have a very Merry Christmas!
