How Many Appointments Do I Need Each Year?

It doesn’t matter how old you are, patients of all ages should visit at least twice a year to have teeth cleaned and examined for underlying oral health concerns. If you have advanced oral health problems, you may need to come in more often.

How Can You Improve the Appearance of My Smile?

Want to visit us for a consultation? We’re happy to use a virtual smile design software that shows what your smile can look like after completing a treatment with us.

Can You Replace My Missing Teeth?

Absolutely. While the treatment we recommend depends on the number of teeth lost and the current state of your oral health, we’ll help determine the best option for you! This could be dental implants. which we’re able to provide with the help of our advanced cone beam scanner and in-house specialists, meaning we perform every step of care in-house. When you have missing teeth for many years, you can experience chronic oral health issues, so don’t wait to schedule a consultation at our dental office.

Will I Need to Get Braces for Crooked Teeth?

When more extensive adjustments in complex orthodontic cases need to be made, sometimes braces are the only viable solution. However, there are more subtle and comfortable options as well, including Invisalign. These clear aligners are designed to be virtually unnoticeable inside your mouth as they shift your teeth. If your goal is to maintain your smile’s appearance during treatment, they are likely the best option for you.

What Should I Do About Gum Disease?

While gum disease can only feel mildly annoying at first, assuming you know that you have it, it can actually cause tooth loss if you aren’t proactive. The best way to keep your smile complete is by calling us as soon as you realize your gums are swollen or frequently bleeding. With the help of our in-house periodontist, we can treat your infection and avoid long-term damage to your smile.

Will You Accept Dental Insurance?

Our dental office accepts multiple insurance plans and we are in-network with several major providers. Got a question about your own policy? Give us a call today!
