What We Offer
Our Services in Detail
Urgent visits first, then the routine care that keeps you from needing one. Every service is provided by a general dentist.
Urgent dental care
Call us for a broken or chipped tooth, a toothache that won't settle, a lost filling or crown, or a knocked-out tooth. We tell you what to do first and whether we can see you today.
Broken, chipped or loose teeth
Toothaches and sore gums
Lost fillings and crowns
Care at home until your visit
Exams and cleanings
A routine exam and cleaning, with X-rays when your dentist decides you need them. How often you come back is your dentist's call, based on your history and your exam.
Exams and X-rays your dentist decides on
Professional cleanings
Gum care when an exam finds a need
Whitening and clear aligners: ask your dentist
Fillings, crowns and bridges
Repairs for teeth that are broken, worn or decayed, planned after an exam. Some crowns can be made in one visit if the office has the equipment; your dentist tells you which option fits your tooth.
Fillings and bonding
Crowns and bridges
Same-day crowns, only where the office offers them
A written estimate before treatment
Root canals and extractions
When a tooth is infected or cannot be saved, your dentist explains your options, what each involves and what happens if you wait. A case that needs an endodontist or oral surgeon is referred to one.

Comfort
Numbing and Sedation
Most visits need only numbing. Sedation is for patients who need more help getting through a visit, and it is a decision you make with your dentist.
Numbing
A local numbing medicine is used for most treatment. You stay awake, and you can raise a hand for a break at any time.
Who gives it: your dentist
You can usually drive yourself afterward
Nitrous oxide
A mild gas through a small mask that takes the edge off. It wears off within minutes once the mask comes off.
Who gives it: your dentist or a trained assistant under the dentist
Watched by a team member throughout
Oral sedation
A pill taken before the visit that leaves you relaxed but awake and able to respond.
Who gives it: your dentist, with a state permit for it
You need an adult to take you home
Your dentist tells you when to stop eating and drinking
IV sedation
Given through a vein only by a dentist or anesthesia provider who holds the state permit for it.
A second trained person watches your pulse and oxygen level throughout

Fasting instructions come before the visit
Sample content.
Sedation is not right for every patient. Your dentist reviews your health and your medicines first, explains the risks, and you can say no at any time. Each level needs the dentist's state permit for it.
