Your Kids Will Enjoy Their Dental Visits - No Kidding!
Our entire team makes children of all ages feel relaxed and comfortable in the dental chair. We provide dental work in a thoughtful and caring manner, which children readily respond to. Our team teaches good dental care and encourages children to brush and floss daily at home. We enjoy meeting them for their first visit at age three, and are happy to see them each year as they grow and change.
Dental Fears Are Gone
We want each generation of children to be free of fear of dental visits. We can help active or scared children feel at ease. This is one of our goals, and parents have been very pleased that we help their children feel comfortable in our care.

We are very pleased to provide Invisalign™ and ClearCorrect™ aligners, invisible orthodontics that can straighten your teeth in only 9 -15 months. They correct many of the problems of overcrowding, overbite, underbite, crossbite, and widely spaced teeth.
With 3-D computer imaging, a complete plan is provided from the current status of your teeth to your final new smile. Clear thermoplastic aligners are created for you, and every 2 - 3 weeks you will advance to a new set as your teeth are gently moved into place. Evaluation is only every one or two months. Your total treatment time depends on your own correction and goals.
Clear Advantages to AlignersThere are specific advantages to wearing Invisalign or ClearCorrect. Discreetness is very important, and no one will ever know you are straightening your teeth. The aligners are only noticeable if someone looks at your teeth close up.
They are comfortable to wear because they're one piece, and that means they do not need to be checked and adjusted on a frequent basis. Gone are the metal brackets bonded to your teeth and adjusted with wires. Headgear is also a thing of the past, and you will not have any type of mouth irritation with these advanced aligners.
You wear them all day and during sleep, but they are removable for eating and brushing and then replaced. You can eat whatever you like during your treatment time - absolutely no food restrictions!

It's easy to capture a full smile again with dental implants. They provide the look and functions of real teeth. You will be able to eat all the foods you like and smile with confidence again. They are permanently replaced and never need to be taken out.
Implants have a very life-like appearance, since they come up through the gums like a regular tooth instead of sitting on top of gums like dentures or a bridge. You can have implants for as many teeth as are missing. Denture wearers greatly benefit and no longer have to worry about slippage and trapped food. We can often handle the entire process of implant placement and restoration for you. In some cases, the difficulty of the case requires the surgical portion be handled by a specialist. We work closely with several excellent surgeons and can coordinate your care between their office and our own to make the process easy for you.
