Dental Health Guides
Children and Infant Care
Choosing the right dentist for your children is an important decision. We're ready to give you and your family the quality dental care you deserve. We love caring for children as patients, and you can be assured that your child will have a wonderful dental experience under our gentle care.
Early dental hygiene is recommended once teeth are erupted. At about age 3, a first time visit to the dentist is advised to help start educating your child about the importance of oral hygiene. Early intervention will enable your child to keep a healthier, brighter smile for the growing years and help eliminate potential dental problems, such as dental decay and early teeth loss.
We welcome any concerns and questions you may have about your child's dental health. Please feel free to call us.

Implants
Implants are one of the best ways to restore one or more missing teeth. They feel like your natural teeth because implants are permanently anchored to your jaw. They can also be placed with ill-fitting dentures to help secure denture wear. Please visit our Newsletter link above for more information or feel free to call us.

Our office is Invisalign certified and we have been providing our patients with a straighter and more beautiful smile. Having a confident smile can change everything.
Invisalign consists of multiple clear aligner trays that will move the teeth to where they will close up gaps and correct crowding so that the finish result will be a straighter and more dazzling smile. And the best thing about invisalign is that most people will not even know you are going through treatment.
We also offer complimentary take home whitening at the end of your invisalign treatment as a bonus. Please call our office for a consultation to see if you are a candidate for invisalign!

We Use State of the Art Equipment
Intraoral Camera:
An intraoral camera is about the size of a pen, so it fits easily into your mouth. Once positioned, it sends pictures to a monitor, where your teeth and gums appear in a full-color image.
Digital Radiographs:
We use digital radiographs on all of our patient when taking x-rays. Digital radiograph uses 80% less radiation than traditional x-ray, and is environmentally friendly because there are no chemicals needed to develope the images.
The images automatically appear on the computer screen and can be enlarged and enhanced to show where dental lesions are. These are only a few benefits of what digital radiographs has to offer.
VELscope: The Oral Cancer Examination System
Our practice continually looks for advances to ensure that we are providing the optimum level of oral health care. We have recently incorporated the use of VELscope as part of our annual oral cancer screening. We find that using VELscope along with standard oral cancer examination improves the ability to identify suspicious area at their earliest stages.
VELscope is a simple and painless examination that gives the best chance to find any oral abnormalities at the earliest possible stage. Early detection of precancerous tissue can minimize or eliminate the potentially disfiguring effects of oral cancer and possibly save your life. Late detection of oral cancer is the primary cause that both the incidents and mortality rates of oral caner continues to increase. Therefore, when you are at your next dental visit, ask for a VELscope examination!
