Dental Healthcare Services

Spadent Smile Whitening

The Spa-dent whitening process provides the maximum whitening benefit, in the least amount of time with virtually no sensitivity.  Spa-dent’s blue and red LED light activates the gel, providing powerful whitening, breaking down stains by oxidation. This process will penetrate but not harm or damage the tooth enamel.   For more information call our office or visit click to visit the Spa-dent website

Implant Dentistry

Implant dentistry can replace missing teeth or replace a denture.  Mother nature does it best but dental implants are the closest replica to real teeth.  Implant procedures often are more comfortable than the tooth removal itself.  Most of our patients do not require any time off work.  Success rates for dental implants are very high.

Laser dentistry is here and possible as a modality of treatment of specific conditions.  It is a modern technique with its benefits.  Not all traditional dentistry is replaced by the laser but as practical techniques are developed, the benefits of comfort and precision are achieved.  Certain surgical procedures such as gingivectomies and frenectomies can be accomplished with minimal bleeding and discomfort compared to electrocautery or scalpel surgeries.
