Services
Dental Cleanings
Our professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to maintain optimal oral health. Using advanced ultrasonic tools, we provide thorough cleanings while ensuring patient comfort. Regular cleanings help prevent gum disease and detect potential issues early, making them essential for maintaining both dental and overall health.
Dental Implants
Dental implants offer permanent tooth replacement solutions that look and function like natural teeth. Our team uses 3D imaging technology to plan precise implant placement. This restorative treatment helps preserve jawbone density and provides stable support for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth using clear, removable aligners that are virtually invisible. We create customized treatment plans using digital scanning technology. This modern orthodontic solution offers comfort and convenience while effectively correcting misaligned teeth and bite issues.
Root Canals
Our root canal procedures relieve dental pain and save damaged teeth using advanced techniques. Digital X-rays help us accurately diagnose pulp damage, and we employ specialized tools for precise treatment. Modern methods ensure comfortable experiences while preserving natural tooth structure.
Children's Dentistry
We provide child-friendly dental care focusing on positive early experiences. Our team uses age-appropriate techniques to educate young patients about oral health. Preventive treatments like sealants and fluoride applications help establish lifelong dental hygiene habits in a welcoming environment.

My boys were so nervous to go to the dentist for the first time. The staff was so friendly and kind. They greeted us by name, showed the boys all the cleaning tools so they would be comfortable and talked them through the whole process. They had such a great experience and we highly recommend them!

I and my entire family were patients there for seven years. Recently I noticed that they had been trying to overcharge me for more than what my insurance covered. It almost seemed like insurance fraud. When I finally gave them the explanation of benefits they said they made a mistake and wouldn't charge me the difference between what insurance covered and what they were billing. They had done this numerous times and every time I caught them they apologized and said it was just a mistake.
I truly believe they were just trying to squeeze more money out of me but my explanation of benefits proved what I really owed them. The very last straw was when they wouldn't waive a $75 cancellation fee because my daughter was sick and canceled on the same day. It's pretty unfortunate that they would lose an entire Family's business over $75. I will never go back there and I would encourage everyone never to go to the dentist. They are just out for the money. The office manager who does the bills there is extremely rude and condescending as well.

As always, Saint Charles Family Dentistry did a wonderful job with both myself and my sons 6 month cleaning. We have been going to the clinic for over 10 years! The receptionists are very kind and friendly. The technicians made myself and my son feel very safe while getting our teeth cleaned during a pandemic and the doctors are exceptional as always. Highly recommend!

Everyone at St. Charles Family Dentistry are professional and polite. They were very conscious of cleanliness and protection during the pandemic. I have not had a bad experience and my daughter and I have been patients for more than a decade.

We have been patients since 1984 and while staff changes have taken place, the innovations in technology and quality of care has always been very excellent. Our daughters now have their own families and some of them have continued with St. Charles Family Dentistry.

AWESOME Experience. I learned so much today. The entire staff provided service above and beyond my expectations. They maintained safety COVID guidelines, provided great service, answered all my questions thoroughly. The moment I walked in the door, the environment was bright, clean and pleasant. The front desk staff was helpful and courtesy. The X-Ray Technician (Lashes) was patient and gentle. The hygienist knew her stuff and provided great options for maintaining good oral health. The DENTIST! PHENOMENAL! That is a lot of brain in that small frame! Truly a great experience. Highly recommend the team at St. Charles Family Dentistry. You really feel like family!
