Services
Invisalign
Invisalign corrects teeth alignment using clear, removable aligners as a discreet alternative to metal braces. Our practice offers customized treatment plans for gradual, comfortable tooth movement. This service suits teens and adults seeking aesthetic, functional improvements in their smile.
Whitening
Professional whitening enhances smiles through in-office or take-home systems tailored to individual sensitivity levels. We use advanced bleaching agents for safe, effective stain removal. Results vary but typically last years with proper maintenance.
Root Canals
Root canal therapy saves damaged teeth by removing infected pulp and disinfecting the interior. Our office uses state-of-the-art equipment for precise, pain-free procedures. This treatment alleviates discomfort and prevents extraction.
Emergency Care
Emergency dental services address sudden pain, trauma, or infections outside regular hours. Our team prioritizes prompt care to relieve discomfort and stabilize conditions. Common emergencies include broken teeth, abscesses, and lost fillings.
Preventive Care
Preventive care includes cleanings, exams, and education to maintain oral health. Regular visits help detect issues early, reducing long-term risks. We emphasize personalized hygiene strategies and family-friendly care.

I have been to Healthy Smile center for several times for various work. Everyone is always very nice and professional. The dentists work very well with their other professionals at the office. They have a lot of updated equipment to provide you with a good assessment of your teeth and dental work required. They werw recommended by my periodontist to finish work on my implants.

I have only been to one other dentist in my life. Since I was a kid until about the age of 27- today was my second visit at Healthy Smiles and I feel so comfortable there already. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable- Dr Crist is so sweet but also tells you what you should be doing to better the longevity and health of your teeth, to which I appreciate so much. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a dentist!
