CEREC natural-looking restorations
Now damaged teeth can be restored in a single visit, usually in about one hour, with a durable ceramic material that matches the natural color of your other teeth.
Invisalign invisible braces
Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces. Treatment takes about the same length of time as traditional braces and is far more comfortable.
SureSmile® clear aligners
SureSmile® Clear Aligners are designed to ensure they fit comfortably, promote better oral hygiene and deliver the exact tooth movements needed to achieve your ideal smile.

Questions
Common questions
Usually not, and we'd rather over-numb than under-numb. Tell us you're nervous and we'll go slower, explain each step, and stop whenever you raise a hand. We also offer nitrous if that helps.
That's most new patients, and nobody here is going to lecture you. We'll look at where things stand, deal with anything urgent, and build a plan you can actually work through.
Say so early and we'll sequence the work so the urgent things happen first. We offer interest-free payment plans in-house and can set up third-party financing for larger treatment.
Yes, from about age three. First visits are short and mostly about getting comfortable in the chair.
Swelling, a knocked-out tooth, a cracked tooth, or pain that's keeping you awake. Call us — we keep same-week slots open and can often see you the same day.
