We respect you and your time. Not only can we treat your entire family, we promise to treat you as family and will go out of our way to ensure your comfort, explain your options, and make you feel welcome.

Technology
We invest our resources into relevant technologies that improve both the experience and the outcome. Our CEREC™ machine allows for crowns that are digitally fabricated in a single visit. Our 3D X-ray unit provides a true full view of every oral structure, allowing us to more thoroughly diagnose problems while using a minimum of radiation. Our VELscope™ oral cancer screening tool allows us to potentially see abnormalities under the surface that may be invisible to the naked eye.
Whole-Body Health
We prioritize optimal overall health, and we recognize the astonishing links between your oral health and systemic diseases. With periodontal disease being linked to heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and more, we take it seriously and give you multiple options for treatment.
Holistic-Friendly
Although we believe in most traditional methods of dentistry and do not brand our office as “holistic”, we will work with you to address concerns you may have with certain dental materials or methods. We have been a mercury-free practice for over a decade, and our doctors are proud members of AAOSH, the American Academy for Oral Systemic Health.
Flexible Financing Options
In addition to accepting all major credit cards, we are in-network with a number of insurance plans, including Cigna, Anthem, and United Healthcare. We also offer a number of additional financing options, such as CareCredit®, GreenSky, and Compassionate. Many patients take advantage of our HFD Membership Plan, which covers routine preventative care at 100% and discounts all other services for less than a dollar a day. We can help you find a payment option that works with your unique needs and budget.
