A dental check-up should be scheduled every six months to properly maintain a healthy smile. This regular visit gives our team a chance to look for any warning signs of dental concern and address them right away. In addition, a professional cleaning helps remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing alone will not cover.
We are pleased to offer VELscope® to detect signs of oral cancer. Our oral cancer screenings are both quick and painless, providing a way to protect your overall health. Oral cancer screenings can be performed during a regular office visit.
A dental crown is used to either protect or replace a natural tooth. Dental crowns are made from high-quality materials and designed to blend in naturally with your smile. Crowns can also be used with bridges to restore missing teeth.
When a cavity is discovered and decay has been removed, a tooth filling is used to protect and restore the tooth. We offer laser dentistry to remove dental decay and improve oral health.
Whether you are missing some of all or your teeth, dentures are more advanced than ever before, offering the perfect solution for restoring your smile. We offer full, partial and implant-supported dentures depending on your dental needs.
Although we avoid tooth extractions whenever possible, at times an extraction can be the best way to address your dental needs. We offer both simple and surgical extractions. An extraction may be recommended for reasons such as crowded teeth, an impacted tooth or a severely damaged tooth.
If you are suffering from teeth grinding, a night guard can protect your smile from further damage. A night guard is designed to keep your teeth separated while you sleep to prevent wear-and-tear on your teeth.
If you or a family member are involved in sports, we recommend a sports mouthguard for protection. Sports injuries can cause lasting damage to your teeth when your smile is not protected. Call today to set up an appointment to get a sports mouthguard to protect your smile!

Root canal treatment can help preserve a tooth that otherwise would need to be extracted. When infection reaches the pulp of a tooth, root canal treatment is performed to remove the pulp of the tooth as well as any present decay. A dental crown is then placed over the tooth to restore and protect it.
Loud snoring, constant drowsiness, headaches and trouble focusing are all symptoms of sleep apnea. In our office, we offer sleep apnea appliances that can open your airways and allow you to get the rest that you need.
For jaw trouble, TMJ appliances can be used to treat symptoms such as jaw popping, jaw pain, headaches and more. A TMJ appliance can be very effective in providing relief for your jaw and helping it function properly.
