A Little More About Our Practice…
A Clean & Safe Practice
Do you ever feel worried about cleanliness in dental offices? We understand your concern. That’s why we go above and beyond for you, exceeding the American Dental Association (ADA) and OSHA recommended standards for cleanliness and safety. We have a dedicated area with state-of-the-art dental sterilization technology where every instrument is wrapped, disinfected, and made ready before your visit. Each room is also sanitized between patients, and we use a closed water system (rather than everyday tap water). You can rest assured that your safety and your comfort are our top priorities. We worry about the cleanliness so you’ll never have to!
Education & Credentials
You can be confident in us as your qualified dental healthcare professionals. We are fully trained, skilled, and certified to provide you with the expertise you are looking for. Our entire team fulfills their responsibility to continuing education, attending dental conventions, gatherings, and lectures. We want to keep informed about new products and equipment, stay on top of advancements in treatment procedures and techniques, and continually learn how we can better serve you and your family as patients.
Information & Accommodations
We empower you to make smart choices for your oral health and smile enhancements through information and thorough consultation, easy and accommodating financing, and comfortable care. We also make sure that we are well informed about your medical history, current medications, and any other factor that might affect your dental health and treatment.
A Kid Friendly Office
We strongly believe that everyone deserves a healthy and attractive smile – adults and children alike. Children’s habits, such as teeth brushing and finger sucking, are of primary concern to dentists, because they can seriously affect children’s smile development. We understand that these habits must be treated with sensitivity and patience. Also, we are aware that some children feel uneasy and even scared about dental visits. We have a friendly, calming, and fun manner that will help your child (and you) feel more at ease. We love patients of all ages!
