Real Patients, Real Results Before and After Family Dentistry

What family dental care services do we provide?

We are your one-stop location for all your family’s dental care needs. Whether you want prevention, repair, or enhancement services, we can help you achieve your dental care goals.

Here are the family dentistry services we offer.

  • Pediatric dentistry: We love all smiles, but there is something about little gums and teeth. We offer children’s dentistry in a fun and relaxing environment. We love seeing small children around the time the first tooth erupts and every six months after that. Routine pediatric exams help us monitor their oral development and catch dental issues before they progress and become hard to treat.
  • Preventive dentistry: Patients of all ages need preventive dental care. Our preventative services include routine exams, cleanings, periodontal care, and other services. We also offer fluoride treatments, oral cancer screenings, and protective mouthguards to keep your smile issue-free.
  • Restorative dentistry: Although teeth are meant to last forever, accidents, decay, and diseases can occur. We breathe life into damaged smiles with dental crowns, fillings, implants, dentures, and root canals. No matter the state of your smile, we can help restore it to optimal function.
  • Cosmetic appearance: We understand some patients want more than a healthy smile. That’s why we offer teeth whitening, dental bonding, veneers, and clear aligners to create amazing smiles with cosmetic dentistry.

Dentistry shouldn’t be complicated. We make life easy for you by providing comprehensive family dental care. From the youngest to the oldest member of your family, all smiles are welcome in our office.

What are the benefits of family dentistry?

You are at an advantage if your dental office offers family dental care. Here are the benefits of a family-friendly dentist.

  • Convenience: Imagine having all your loved ones’ dental care needs cared for under one roof! This convenience means you don’t have to drive to multiple offices, saving you time and mileage. Our office can book an appointment for your entire household to simplify your life.  
  • Familiarity: Having a single dental office for your family can create a sense of comfort, especially for children. Seeing the same dentist alleviates anxieties associated with dental visits.
  • Modeling healthy habits: Habits formed at an early stage last forever. When children see their parents and siblings visit the dentist regularly, it reinforces the importance of routine dental care. These good oral hygiene practices last until adulthood.
  • Forging lasting relationships: Over time, your family dentist becomes a trusted dental care provider for your family. This long-term relationship allows for a deeper understanding of your family’s dental history, which is invaluable for ongoing care.
