Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth with titanium posts that fuse with jawbone for permanent support. Our dentists use 3D imaging and VIP scans for precise placement. Patients benefit from improved speech, eating ability, and facial structure preservation while preventing bone loss.
Porcelain Veneers
Custom-crafted porcelain veneers enhance smiles by correcting discoloration, chips, and misalignment. Our dentists use digital smile imaging to preview results. This minimally invasive procedure provides durable, natural-looking aesthetic improvements that resist staining.
Sedation Dentistry
Oral sedation options help anxious patients receive necessary dental care comfortably. Our dentists administer medication that induces deep relaxation while maintaining consciousness. This enables complex treatments in fewer visits without procedural memory.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-ray technology reduces radiation exposure by 90% compared to traditional methods. Our system detects hidden decay, bone loss, and root issues with enhanced image clarity. Digital format enables immediate viewing and secure electronic sharing with specialists.
Dental Crowns
Custom dental crowns restore damaged teeth with durable ceramic or porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations. Our two-visit process includes temporary protection while creating precise fits using digital impressions. Crowns improve tooth strength and appearance while maintaining natural bite function.

Questions
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Implants improve speech, eating ability, and self-esteem while preventing bone loss. They function like natural teeth and don't require damaging adjacent teeth.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most patients with sufficient bone mass and good oral health qualify. Our dentists evaluate each case individually using 3D imaging and medical history.
How painful is the implant procedure?
We use oral sedation and local anesthesia to ensure comfort. Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the implant placement procedure.
What is Teeth In A Day?
This procedure allows immediate tooth replacement with implants and temporary restorations in a single visit, eliminating multiple surgeries and healing periods.
Do you accept dental insurance?
We accept most traditional insurance plans and file claims for Delta Dental Premier providers. Flexible payment plans and CareCredit financing options are available.
