Believe it or not, children should have their first dental visit about 6 months after their primary teeth have erupted, or generally around their first birthday and certainly by age 3. First of all, this provides us an opportunity to spot and prevent any potential oral health/dental problems; it also gives the child a positive, non-threatening dental office experience.

We would like to see you twice a year if you have good dental health. We may adjust this time period depending on the state of your oral health.

We understand many people have qualms about having their teeth worked on. We strive to create a relaxing and soothing environment. We offer sedation dentistry to our patients who feel they need more to relax. In addition, we offer other distractions during your visit such as music and television to calm the senses. If you have concerns about seeing the dentist we will be more than happy to discuss your options for a stress-free, relaxing treatment visit.

Many of our patients invite their family and friends to join our practice. The referrals we receive are the best compliment. We will strive to make your visit enjoyable so that you too will feel inclined to recommend our practice to your family, friends and co-workers.

Halitosis, or bad breath, can be reduced and eliminated through careful and regular dental care at home and in our office.  If you have not recently had a checkup, we would advise you to come in for a routine exam so that we can try to determine the cause of the problem, which may be untreated periodontal disease.  Once we discover the culprit of your breath concerns, we can offer options to treat your needs, including products for fresher breath.

Losing sleep because of snoring can be incredibly frustrating.  We recommend that your spouse come in to our office for a consultation so that we can determine the cause of the snoring.  If it appears that it will help, we offer oral appliances to alleviate the problem. If necessary, we will refer to a sleep clinic for a sleep study to rule out sleep disordered breathing, such as obstructive sleep apnea.  This will ensure you get the best treatment possible for your unique problem.
