Services
General & Preventive Dentistry
Our preventive program includes thorough exams, professional cleanings, and periodontal therapy using Cavitron ultrasonic scalers for a deeper clean. We emphasize gum health as a vital indicator of overall wellness during every hygiene appointment. Patients receive modern preventive care that extends well beyond standard routine cleaning procedures.
Restorative Dentistry
We restore damaged or missing teeth using crowns, bridges, dentures, and root canal therapy to regain full function. Our full-mouth restoration services address complex cases with comprehensive treatment planning tailored to each patient. Every restorative procedure aims to return teeth to natural strength and aesthetic appearance.
Dental Implant Restorations
We collaborate closely with implant surgeons to design and place final crown, bridge, or denture restorations after surgical placement. Our team ensures a seamless transition from surgery to restoration for a natural look and comfortable feel. Patients receive coordinated care that restores both smile aesthetics and chewing capability.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer porcelain veneers, take-home whitening, composite bonding, and tooth recontouring for patients seeking subtle smile enhancements. Our approach focuses on honest options that refine existing teeth without unnecessary pressure or hard sales tactics. Each cosmetic treatment is customized to complement natural dental structure and patient preferences.

My son is 4 & loves to visit Drs Woodward & Kaufman. Our hygienists are Breanna & Leanna; they are always so gentle & engage him so that he feels comfortable. This visit, Dr Becky gave him a mirror tool to take home since he did so well & was so interested in everything they were doing. It was such a kind gesture. I cannot recommend them enough!

I feel as if I'm spending time with family I like when I'm there. Fixed some issues with my upper teeth recently and can't wait to go back for my lower teeth this August. Hopefully on a hot day since from what I recall their central air runs great. Cool Temps and a nice new smile is literally living the dream.

Dr Becky did a great job, worked quickly and painlessly. I felt totally safe and did not fear COVID at all. They minimized my time in the building and got me out very quickly. I highly recommend the team! Love them and recommend them for the whole family!

This is the dental office my wife and I were searching for. We had been going to Dr Jay Allen in New London. The office was always cheery and upbeat. The care was great. Dr Jay retired and sold the practice. We hung on to be with our hygienist but things were going down hill and as soon as she left so did we. We asked around for recommendations. From those recommendations, Woodward/Kaufman sounded to be the dental practice for us.
The recommendations were spot on! The entire office is cheery and upbeat. I met Dr Becky and I could tell the office is a reflection of her. I was impressed with her approach as I was a new patient as well as that of Meagan, my hygienist. This is a great practice!

Adam and Becky and all the staff give it their all. I've been a patient there for at least twenty years and one think I've always appreciated is the sense I get whenever I've arrived there or needed to see them right away. It doesn't feel institutional at all. It's more like care, support and a shared ownership of any emergency I might be experiencing.
