Services
Dental Hygiene
Our dental hygiene services include professional cleanings, plaque and tartar removal, and gum disease screening. We emphasize preventive care to maintain oral health through regular checkups and patient education. Our hygienists use specialized tools to ensure thorough cleaning and early detection of potential issues.
Dental Implants
We offer dental implant solutions for missing teeth, including implant restoration and maintenance. Our team provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment planning for long-term tooth replacement. Implants help preserve jawbone structure and restore natural chewing function with durable results.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth using custom clear aligners for mild to moderate spacing or crowding issues. The removable, nearly invisible trays offer comfortable orthodontic correction without traditional braces. We provide sequential aligners created through advanced digital planning technology.
Night Guards
Custom night guards protect against teeth grinding damage during sleep. We create personalized oral appliances to prevent enamel wear and jaw pain from bruxism. These durable guards allow proper breathing while providing a protective barrier between teeth.
Periodontic Care
Our periodontic services include gum disease management and maintenance following scaling procedures. We perform periodontal cleanings to remove plaque buildup and prevent disease recurrence. Regular maintenance helps preserve gum health and tooth stability through specialized care protocols.

I've been a patient of Dr. Tina Shih's office for over 20 years! Dr. Shih and her staff are great! They are kind, gentle, personable and professional. Dr. Shih is an excellent dentist and extremely knowledgeable and professional. She and her staff take very good care of patients.

This is a rather wonderful practice! Everyone working here is extremely friendly, and even the dynamics among the staff (and Dr. Shih herself) feel so peaceful and amiable. Dr. Shih is one of the most gentle souls I have ever met. She treats her patients with incredible patience and tenderness, and always has the patients' best interests at heart. She is also very knowledgeable and skilled. (One time I was at the office of the endodontist she referred me to, and I overheard the endodontist talking to his assistant in the hallway about how beautiful Dr. Shih's work was.

So apparently her skills are acknowledged by her colleagues as well.) I feel very fortunate to be Dr. Shih's patient and be taken care of by her. All thanks to her, going to the dentist is no longer a scary experience!

Apex General Dentistry is, by far, the best.! Anne, Kelli, Connie, and of course Dr. Shih are all extremely friendly, skilled, and professional. I've been going to them for 15+ years, and for the past 3 years traveled 3 hours for my appointments; well worth the drive.
