Ask us about laser treatment for cold sores!
Light energy can destroy the local virus that causes cold sores to form. Laser treatment can help prevent sores if treated once the lip starts tingling and before blisters appear. This treatment is affordable and takes just a few minutes without anesthesia.
SARS-2-Coronavirus Safety update
You should know what makes our office air safe! We have replaced or modified elements of our air conditioning system with a cold plasma proton device that uses ionization and upgraded filtration for the removal of particles, viruses, bacteria, and fungi from the air.
Engineering upgrades to help keep you safe
Our office has been retrofitted with custom glass doors on all treatment rooms and between the business and clinical sides of our office.
We celebrated 30 years in practice on January 28th, 2021. It has been a privilege to care for our patients and serve this community that we are lucky to call home. We are looking forward to many more years!
Staff training throughout the year
Our staff is trained and certified in CPR, OSHA, and Infection Control. They have also been trained in recognizing and responding appropriately to medical emergencies. We are proud of the level of commitment and dedication our staff has shown to providing you the safest environment possible to obtain your dental care.
We now have 2 team members that have been with us for over 20 years! Pat and Chris are invaluable to our team and we are lucky to have them both!
