Comprehensive Dental Exams

We take the time to listen, evaluate carefully and understand the “why” before presenting “how” to resolve each particular problem. Wouldn’t you want to know if you had a condition in your mouth that would lead to tooth loss?...We want you to understand any problem in your mouth AND any appropriate treatment options.

Digital Xrays

Digital radiographs dramatically reduce your exposure to radiation while providing us with clear, easily retrieved images for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Professional Cleanings

Scaling and Root Planing (Deep Cleanings)

Healthy supporting structures (gum/bone) of your teeth are of the highest priority for a healthier patient and for successful results of any restorative dentistry. We offer various conservative treatments to manage periodontal disease, including scaling and root planing (deep cleanings).

Warning signs of periodontal disease can include: red, swollen gums, bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, tooth pain or sensitivity. The early stage of periodontal disease, gingivitis, can be reversed. If left untreated, the disease process can lead to tooth loss. Periodontal disease has been linked to other chronic illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes and preterm, low birth weight babies. Four of every five Americans suffer from some form of gum disease, according to the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
