Laser dental
treatments

Restorative dentistry has come a long way in recent years, thanks to the latest in laser and computer technology. Lasers have been the standard of care in medicine for surgical and cosmetic procedures – LASIK, wrinkle, hair and vein removal and many others.

Fewer shots, less drilling & less anesthesia

The Waterlase® laser was approved for dental procedures in 1998. Since then, thousands of dentists have performed millions of successful procedures – reducing the need for shots, anesthesia, drills and post-op numb lips. Waterlase also reduces patient anxiety and provides a more relaxing dental experience. Waterlase is a versatile tool that allows us to cut and shape teeth, bone and gum tissue with less trauma. It also allows us to do procedures that can’t be done with traditional tools such as drills and scalpels.

Same-day CEREC® 
crowns & bridges

If you have ever had a crown or “cap” placed to restore a damaged tooth, you likely had to make multiple visits to your dentist for impressions to be made, placement of a temporary crown and placement of the final restoration after adjustments. Thanks to CEREC dentistry, we can now create a precision-crafted crown restoration in just one visit. Single-visit crowns are natural-looking, tooth-colored restorations that fit and function perfectly.

No temporaries
no multiple visits
no hassles

Single-visit crowns make it possible for you to visit once and walk out with a brand-new crown and a nicer smile that day. Get the fastest, most convenient dental crowns you have ever had and improve your smile at the same time.
