Business Details
We opened Hebron Center Dentistry in August 2005, building a modern facility designed with patient comfort at its core. Dr. Alison Nicholes, a graduate of the University of Connecticut Dental School, completed a residency at Northport Veteran's Hospital before returning to Connecticut to practice privately. Our team blends advanced technology with compassionate care to deliver a superior patient experience in a relaxed setting. We employ Ergosmooth chairs, the first massaging system integrated into dental chairs, to soothe patients and reduce anxiety during treatment. Our practice utilizes laser caries detection, allowing early identification of decay without the need for metal probes.
We offer a 95% reduction in Xray radiation, ensuring the safest imaging possible for our patients. The VistaClear water filtration system guarantees sterile water in all procedures, protecting patients from contamination. We prioritize prevention and education, teaching patients how to maintain oral health and avoid future problems. When necessary, we use noninvasive techniques and dental implants that preserve adjacent teeth and maintain natural bite. Our commitment to high professional standards is reflected in our meticulous attention to detail and transparent communication. We strive to keep every patient satisfied, ensuring their comfort and confidence throughout every visit.

Services
Ergosmooth Chairs
Ergosmooth Chairs provide a gentle massaging motion that eases patient anxiety during procedures. Designed with patient comfort in mind, the chairs integrate seamlessly into our modern, clean environment. They enhance the overall experience, allowing patients to remain calm throughout treatment.
Laser Caries Detection
Laser Caries Detection uses advanced laser technology to identify decay before it becomes visible to the eye. This early detection allows us to intervene with minimally invasive procedures. The result is preservation of healthy tooth structure and reduced need for future restorative work.
Dental Implants
Dental Implants replace missing teeth without grinding adjacent teeth, preserving natural bite alignment. The procedure involves placing titanium posts that fuse with the jawbone over several months, creating a stable foundation for crowns. Patients receive durable, naturallooking results with minimal impact on surrounding structures.
Prevention & Education
Prevention & Education focuses on teaching patients how to avoid dental problems before they arise. We provide personalized oral hygiene guidance and nutrition counseling tailored to each individual. This proactive approach reduces the need for invasive treatments and promotes longterm oral health.

The staff were very professional and I feel that I am being taken care of. I did learn today that the practice will be out of network for Cigna. I am not sure how that will affect my insurance coverage. I will check around to see if I can find a dentist that is in network for Cigna and also determine additional cost for out of network providers. I do not want to leave this dentist.

At a time when I needed a lot of dental work, Dr. Nicholes showed me compassion and dedication. She was so gentle that I didn't even feel the needle when I required numbing. She checked on how I was doing frequently and truly showed care for my comfort. Upon completion I had a few fixed fillings, all of which felt like they had always been there (no need for daily eating to fine tune the shape and height). Her staff were also amazing, kind and funny. I felt completely at ease from start to finish, which you don't always get. I would highly recommend this office.

5 stars, all around! From the front end staff, to the hygienists, to the dentists (particularly Dr. Nicholes), Hebron Family Dentistry is top notch. Professional, accommodating and all that I'd hope to have in a dental experience. My family of four has had varying dental needs in the past 6 months or so (emergency filling, routine cleaning, invisilgn, etc) and we could not be happier. Highly recommend to folks of all ages!

SO happy I found them. I had previously gone to a new dentist who told me I needed tons of work done. I went here for a second opinion and never left! (I didn't need all that work done, btw). It's beautiful inside and all the staff is just lovely.
