Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth. Using titanium posts anchored into the jawbone, we restore functionality and aesthetics. Ideal for patients seeking durable, natural-looking results that mimic real teeth.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening addresses discoloration caused by age, diet, or habits. Our treatments use advanced bleaching agents to safely lighten enamel, delivering noticeable results in a single visit or through custom take-home kits.
Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatment corrects misaligned teeth and jaws. We offer traditional braces and clear aligners to improve bite function, oral health, and aesthetics. Treatment plans are tailored for children, teens, and adults.
Emergency Dentistry
Emergency dental services address trauma, infections, or sudden pain. We prioritize prompt care for chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth, ensuring immediate relief and long-term oral health stability.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers cover chips, cracks, or gaps for a flawless smile. These thin shells bond to tooth surfaces, offering durability and a natural appearance. Ideal for cosmetic improvements with minimal tooth alteration.

Excellent Staff, Service and Quality Care I have been going to Dr Malenius for more than 20 years. He is one of the most talented dentists I know. The office is run efficiently so there are no excessive wait times, and the staff is fun, caring and talented. Dr Bob has always been very accommodating to my sensitivity to pain, and he keeps up with the latest technologies to ensure cost effective, quality care. So many of my friends and family go to Dr Bob. They too have been going for 20+ years.

I've known Dr. Malenius since he was in dental school, and I know without any doubt that he is absolutely one of the most skillful dentists whom I've ever met. My siblings live near his office, and I have referred all of them to his service.

Dr. Malenius and Associates ROCKS! They are a FANTABULOUS group of people who know their craft and care about their patients. I would HIGHLY recommend them for any dental care or work that you may need. Both Dr's Bob and Mark are not only knowledgable; but really good people who want to make sure that you get the very best care. Tina, Linda, Joyce and the entire team from front to back are absolutely wonderful. I trust them completely and wouldn't go anywhere else.

I cant believe I just rated a Dentist Visit as I loved it! But I have got to say Dr. Malenius and his staff are beyond exceptional. Very professional I needed quite a bit of work done starting with an extraction and ranging to small fillings, and a crown repair. Doctor Malenius went out of his way to make all of it a comfortable and painless experience. I'm still amazed by it. Very highly would I recommend.
