Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Our pediatric dentistry services focus on preventive care, oral health education, and specialized treatment for children. We create positive dental experiences to establish lifelong habits while addressing developmental needs like speech and eating. Our board-certified specialists use child-friendly techniques to ensure comfortable visits.
Early Dental Care
Early dental care programs emphasize cavity prevention, proper brushing techniques, and developmental monitoring. We provide fluoride treatments, sealants, and dietary guidance tailored to children's needs. Regular checkups help detect issues early while building trust through consistent, gentle care.
Comfort Dentistry
Comfort dentistry employs specialized communication techniques and calming environments to reduce dental anxiety. We offer nitrous oxide sedation and behavior management strategies to help children feel safe during procedures. Our approach prioritizes emotional well-being alongside clinical excellence.
Interceptive Orthodontics
Interceptive orthodontics addresses bite issues and jaw development in growing children. We use space maintainers, expanders, and other appliances to guide permanent teeth into proper positions. Early intervention can reduce future treatment complexity and improve oral function.
Dental Emergencies
Emergency dental services handle trauma, toothaches, and broken teeth outside regular hours. Our team provides immediate pain relief and stabilization for injuries. We prioritize urgent cases while offering guidance for home care until treatment can be administered.

Report
The dentists were great but unfortunately their billing is very rude and pushy. We had some hang ups with insurance despite the insurance being active and covered we are still constantly getting sent bills and phone calls. We were told they'd send the bill manually, directly to Medicaid and 2 days later WE got the bill in the mail. Now they won't see my daughter to finish work that they started. Very frustrating and disappointing.

Report
My 16 month old fell while running around and chipped her two front teeth. One tooth was chipped so badly it looked like she hardly had a tooth, the second was a cosmetic blemish to the corner of the tooth. Mind you I'd never brought her to the dentist yet. But after calling here they had us set up and saw my daughter within 2 hours. We were there for less than an hour and a half and we walked out with her new two front teeth, a follow up appointment and our very grumpy girl even smiled.
The staff is so professional and kind and the facility itself is super clean and quiet. I will highly recommend them to everyone from here on out. I'm beyond grateful to have gone here today and been treated with such kindness.

Has no problem rescheduling people when their doctor is out, but won't move other children when a crisis hit the us! disgusted!

Don't try to reschedule an appointment here! Oh boy, 3 months later, are you kidding me, time to find a dentist that is a little more accommodating. Ps: one star is one to many
