Services
Dental implants
Computer-guided dental implants replace missing teeth with titanium posts and custom crowns. This solution prevents bone deterioration and adjacent teeth shifting while restoring natural chewing function. Our 3D imaging ensures precise placement for long-term stability and aesthetics.
CEREC same-day dentistry
CEREC technology creates porcelain crowns, inlays, and onlays in one appointment. Digital scanning eliminates traditional impressions while maintaining 10+ year durability. Patients avoid temporary crowns and multiple anesthetic sessions for faster recovery.
CBCT 3D scans
Cone Beam Computed Tomography provides detailed 3D views of teeth, jawbones, and nerve pathways. This technology reduces radiation exposure while improving diagnostic accuracy for implants, extractions, and TMJ evaluations compared to traditional X-rays.
SureSmile aligners
Custom clear aligners straighten teeth discreetly using digital treatment planning. Patients wear removable trays 20-22 hours daily, changing sets every 1-2 weeks. Treatment typically completes 50% faster than traditional braces with fewer office visits.
Oral cancer screenings
Sapphire Plus system detects oral lesions and HPV infections through painless fluorescence technology. Annual screenings identify abnormalities before symptoms appear, improving treatment success rates for this increasingly common condition affecting diverse patient populations.

I wanted to fall asleep while Julie was cleaning my teeth; it was so relaxing, not painful at all. Very sweet crew working there. Modern Dental is awesome! I have been going there for years. All smiles!

Report
I hate dentist and dentist offices and all things involved with it but this place is AWESOME!! My hygienist, Julie, was so gentle and so kind and understanding of how anxious I was and while she worked she checked in on me and encouraged me and made everything so simple I wondered why I was ever scared!
Dr Kim came in and went over my X-rays, told me what I still needed to have done and was clear and kind and answered my questions.
I have a follow up to get a crown next week and while Im still nervous, I am not scared anymore I actually look forward to seeing the professional staff and the gorgeous office! I wont lie and say I suddenly like dentists now, but Modern Dental has definitely tipped the scales for me. I can see myself coming here twice a year for cleanings like Im supposed to
