Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through teeth whitening, veneers, bonding, and crowns. Modern techniques combine artistry and technology to address discoloration, chips, and alignment issues, boosting confidence and social well-being while maintaining natural aesthetics.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide durable, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth using titanium posts fused to the jawbone. This option offers stability for crowns, bridges, or dentures, preserving facial structure and function while requiring minimal maintenance compared to traditional alternatives.
Emergency Care
We prioritize urgent cases like severe pain, broken teeth, or infections, offering same-day appointments during office hours and on-call support after hours. Our team ensures prompt relief and triage for both routine and life-threatening situations requiring hospital intervention.
Dentures
Custom dentures and partials restore missing teeth with removable or implant-supported options. We focus on comfort and functionality, ensuring proper fit through digital imaging and offering same-day repairs for immediate needs.
Advanced Technology
Incorporating intraoral cameras, digital X-rays, and CEREC CAD/CAM systems enhances diagnostic accuracy and treatment efficiency. These tools enable same-visit restorations, early cavity detection, and minimally invasive procedures for improved patient outcomes.

Receptionist was helpful and friendly. Didn't have to wait very long before was called back to dentist office. Procedure was quick and painless. Dr Zunich and assistant were very nice.

UPDATE! 6/22/21- This place is just great! My daughter had an abscess tooth (mom fail) that was found while having her cleaning. They managed to get her in while I was still there to take care of it- taking in consideration of timing and making sure my daughter wasn't in any pain. They made her feel comfortable to the point she said it was no big deal! Dr. Kivi and Hygienist Erika Martin were both great with my kiddos today!

I had an appointment for my 4 year old today- whom is a wiggle butt. They were very patient with her- more than I'd ever be!- They kept it fun and interesting for her and were fine with me being a "helicopter mom". Very helpful when I asked for extra help with some insurance stuff as well. Would recommend for sure! Briella had Dr. Kivi today and her assistant- Kathy I think? I had my teeth cleaned as well today-forgot her name but I could tell she was really putting effort into getting my pearly whites back into shape! Thanks for the great service!

Amber is the best hygienist ever! I've seen her for years and now my 5 year old daughter has been seeing her for the last few years as well. She is so nice to talk to and always makes both of us feel so comfortable!

Dr. Kivi and her staff are amazing. I have gone to Dental Associates for almost 20 years and have always received exceptional care. Amber, Kristy and Stacy have always made my kids feel comfortable about going to the dentist and they have enjoyed going to the dentist since the first appointment. I would highly recommend any of the providers at Dental Associates if Dr. Kivi is unavailable.
