Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants restore missing teeth with durable, natural-looking solutions. Our process involves surgically placing titanium roots that fuse with jawbone tissue for lasting stability. Patients benefit from improved chewing function, speech clarity, and facial structure preservation. We customize implant crowns to match natural tooth color and shape, ensuring seamless integration with existing smiles.
Veneers
Veneers address cosmetic dental imperfections through thin porcelain shells bonded to tooth fronts. This treatment corrects discoloration, chips, gaps, and minor misalignments. Our dentists carefully prepare enamel surfaces to ensure proper adhesion while maintaining tooth vitality. Patients achieve dramatic smile transformations with minimal invasive procedures and long-lasting aesthetic results.
Invisalign
Invisalign straightens teeth discreetly using custom-made, removable plastic trays. Our treatment planning utilizes 3D imaging to map gradual tooth movement over time. Patients appreciate the absence of metal brackets and wires, with treatment typically requiring biweekly tray changes. Regular check-ups ensure proper progression toward optimal dental alignment.
Crowns & Bridges
Crowns and bridges repair damaged or missing teeth while maintaining proper bite alignment. Crowns encapsulate compromised teeth to restore strength and shape, while bridges fill gaps using artificial teeth anchored to adjacent natural teeth. We fabricate these restorations from durable materials like porcelain or zirconia for both functional and aesthetic benefits.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services address surface stains and discoloration through supervised bleaching procedures. We offer in-office treatments with concentrated whitening gels and take-home kits with custom-fitted trays. Our dentists assess enamel condition beforehand to ensure safe application, delivering noticeable results while minimizing tooth sensitivity risks.

This Dentist is amazing! Dr. Kahn is the best honestly. I've had really bad experiences and bad luck with my teeth and every time I have an emergency with a tooth he gets me in right away. He really cares about his patients and you can tell he loves his job and is super knowledgeable about everything he does. I feel like I can trust his work and what he says and that means everything to me in finding the best dentist.
He had the best reviews and it def makes sense why he does. I highly recommend him if you need to find a trust worthy, and feel good environment while at the dentist. I also have bad anxiety and going here they make you feel at ease and comfortable

I was a patient of Dr. Yao's at her prior office and decided to follow her to Smiles Cafe Dentistry when she moved practices. She's awesome - her bedside manner is calming and kind and she really takes the extra steps to make sure her patients are comfortable. Highly recommend! Everyone else at this office has been great too!

SUCH WONDERFUL DENTAL STAFF! I was referred to Smiled Cafe from a close friend, and I'm so grateful I took a chance on them. I got a tooth extracted against advise, but they made me feel confident in my decision due to a financial struggle. They were able to assist me in getting a graft as well. I'm very grateful for Smiles Cafe. They are all so so nice, professional, and understanding!
