Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that mimic natural teeth in function and appearance. Our customized implant system integrates with jawbone tissue for lasting results. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability, facial structure preservation, and enhanced confidence in their smile.
Same-Day Crowns
Using advanced CAD/CAM technology, we create custom dental crowns in a single visit. This eliminates the need for temporary crowns and multiple appointments. Patients receive durable, precisely-fitted restorations while preserving natural tooth structure during the preparation process.
Sedation Dentistry
We offer multiple sedation options to ensure comfortable dental experiences for anxious patients. From oral sedatives to nitrous oxide, our techniques help patients relax during procedures while maintaining safety and effectiveness throughout treatment.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
Custom oral appliances address obstructive sleep apnea by maintaining open airways during sleep. Our dentists collaborate with physicians to develop personalized treatment plans that improve sleep quality and reduce associated health risks through non-invasive dental solutions.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Comprehensive cosmetic services transform smiles through veneers, whitening, and bonding treatments. We combine artistic skill with dental science to address discoloration, misalignment, and structural imperfections while maintaining natural tooth function and oral health.

Everyone's worst nightmare, to be on vacation, thousands of miles from home and I develop a very infected tooth that needed to be removed ASAP. The office was able to get me in within hours to extract tooth. The dentist was so gentle and kind and the office staff was extremely welcoming. I would highly recommend the dentist group! To be treated so well knowing that it was a one-time appointment until I return home was greatly appreciated. Patty Lucas

I wish I could give them even more stars. Citracado is the best dental office there is. They prioritize health by taking your blood pressure every visit and have charts that explain your mouth is the key to your health. They are even open until 7pm on Wednesdays and are open on Saturdays as well which is so rare to find! Their pricing is very fair/inexpensive, with my insurance I was able to get both wisdom teeth out for 300$.
Not to mention they are all great at they're jobs. I got both wisdom teeth out, painlessly, in 10 minutes. I had minimal/no swelling. I have attached a photo 24 hours post surgery no chimp munk cheeks or excessive bleeding. You won't find a dental office that cares more about their patients.

I had a great experience at Citracado Dental Group! From the staff checking me in to the Dental assistant taking the x-rays and Dr. Robert fixing my tooth, I couldn't have asked for a better visit. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Dr. Robert took the time to explain how my tooth would get fixed before he started and I was out of the office in under an hour. Definitely recommend Citracado Dental Group!

Citracado has been an amazing experience. Like all healthcare procedures there are ups and downs so it's really important that both sides are engaged, open and communicative and they are just that. They are warm and friendly and really give off a family vibe which is nice. They also are super flexible which is so important with repairing dental needs. I've had two emergencies from an old implant and both times they made time for me right away.
I'm so indebted for their engagement, flexibility, care and warm atmosphere. I am having a little issue with sensitivity from a crown but they've shown me that they are committed to giving me the best dental experience I can have. The dentist is my kryptonite so I'm so happy they all work to make me feel like Superman!

Dr. Nick is passionate about dentistry, and everyone who worked with me had years of experience, knowledge and passion. I was treated with kindness and patience. Robin did the best cleaning I have had in years. I left feeling like a million bucks!
