Children's Dentistry
It's important to bring your child to see the dentist once every six months. Their six month checkup appointment allows us to examine their teeth and provide them with a dental cleaning.
Dental Cleanings
Keeping your teeth healthy and clean requires more than diligent brushing and flossing at home. In many cases, plaque will build upon different areas of the teeth, hardening into a chalky white substance known as tartar.
Dental Emergencies
A dental emergency can occur at virtually any time, regardless of how well you take care of your smile. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for many of these emergencies to leave a patient in severe pain and discomfort.

SDF (Silver Diamine Fluoride)
Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is a liquid substance that has been proven to be highly effective in treating and preventing tooth decay. This unique compound is composed of silver, fluoride, water, and ammonia, all of which work together to combat the formation and progression of cavities.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation has long been used in the dental field to help keep patients calm and comfortable. We understand that visiting the dentist isn't always a fun experience and that some people have anxiety related to their treatment.
Tooth Extractions
Extractions are done as a way to preserve your oral health and remove problematic teeth. In some cases, you may need to have teeth removed because of advanced gum disease.
