In addition to their 30+ years of experience, they have also completed countless continuing education courses dedicated to helping them repair the teeth in such a way that it looks like nothing was ever wrong with them in the first place.

Tooth-Colored Fillings
In the past, the best way to fix a small cavity was to place a gray amalgam filling, but thankfully, those days are long gone! Now, our dentists can instead use tooth-colored fillings to make decay practically disappear under a natural-looking restoration. These are made of a composite resin that can be shaded to match any patient’s enamel, and they help preserve more of the healthy tooth structure compared to old fillings as well, leading to a higher-quality repair.
Dental Crowns
For severely damaged or decayed teeth, rather than simply extracting them, we can protect the remaining healthy enamel and fully restore the look and strength of the tooth using a dental crown. These are custom-shaped “caps” that simply fit over a tooth, and ours are made of dental porcelain because it has a more natural appearance. While most dental offices need at least two appointments to place a crown, we can do it in just one thanks to our technology (learn more right below).
One-Visit Dental Restorations
We can make our own high-quality dental crowns right in our dental office. Combining computer-aided design and manufacturing, we can mill and place a crown in as little as an hour that is just as strong and aesthetically-pleasing as anything produced by an outside lab. This approach not only saves a patient time, but they also don’t have to get a messy impression or spend weeks with an unreliable dental crown. In just one visit, their tooth will look and feel brand new.
Dental Bridges
A bridge is a simple but very effective prosthetic we can use to replace a single tooth or even many missing teeth in a row. Two dental crowns are fitted over the teeth on either side of the absent ones, and these are bonded to additional crowns to fill in the space. The end result is a normal-looking row of teeth that allows a patient to smile with confidence and chew with ease again.
Dentures
Dentures enable a patient to replace several missing teeth at the same time using a single, easy to care for prosthetic. Our dentures are custom-designed for each and every patient using top-quality acrylic materials so they have a natural appearance and secure fit. With our dentists, you can get either a removable denture, or for a more secure and stable feel, an implant fixed retained denture.
Telescopic Coping Bridges
A precise fitting bridge, used when many teeth are missing or when existing teeth are not strong enough to support themselves and a long span bridge is needed to replace the missing teeth. This works well when implants are not an option for replacing missing teeth and some teeth are still remaining. For patients with some missing teeth, often one of the biggest barriers between getting dental implants to replace them is not enough bone. Telescopic coping bridges are able to work around this problem so patients with inadequate bone can restore their teeth quickly without having to get a bone graft to build up the jaw.
