Services

Cosmetic

  • Dental Bonding
  • Dental Veneers — Veneers are used to correct uneven teeth, worn enamel, discoloration, chipped teeth and irregular spacing.
  • Smile Simulation By Itero®
  • Teeth Whitening — The key to a long lasting, bright, white smile is to have them whitened by a cosmetic dentist before discoloration becomes too severe.

Endodontics

  • Root Canal Therapy — Bacterial byproducts build up at the root tip and the infection of the pulp can spread to the surrounding bone, which without this treatment your tooth would likely need to be removed.

General

  • Tooth Extractions

Implants

  • Dental Implants — Complete restoration of missing teeth regardless of cause (periodontitis, tooth decay, or dental injury).

Orthodontics

  • Invisalign — Clear medical grade polyurethane aligners that move teeth during each stage of alignment without visible wires and brackets.

Periodontics

  • Periodontal Care — Specialized periodontal care provided by Dr. Ed Rajek since 2008.

  • Fillings
  • Inlays & Onlays — Inlays and onlays help partially cover the tooth's chewing surface.
  • Single Appointment Crowns & Bridges — Most crowns and some bridges can be made in a single 90-minute appointment with no need for a messy impression or temporary crown.
