Services
Four categories of care
In detail, with the questions patients actually ask. What we don’t do in-house, we refer to a short list of specialists we trust; we’ll tell you who on the first visit.
One of four
Preventive care
Routine cleanings, bitewing and panoramic x-rays as needed, oral cancer screening at every visit, fluoride for patients who benefit from it, periodontal maintenance for patients managing gum disease. Twice-yearly is the right cadence for most healthy adults; quarterly is the right cadence if periodontal disease has gotten a foothold. We will tell you the truth about which one applies to you, not the version that sells more visits.
Adult cleaning + exam + bitewings: typically $200–280 out of pocket without insurance, $0–60 with most PPO plans.
Two of four
Cosmetic dentistry
In-office whitening, professional-grade take-home whitening trays, composite bonding for chipped corners and minor reshaping, porcelain veneers for the cases that genuinely call for them, Invisalign clear-aligner treatment. The category that is most often sold to patients who do not need it; we are happy to do the work that improves your bite and your smile, and we are equally happy to talk you out of a veneer plan that would only enrich the dentist.
Whitening from $400 (take-home trays) to $650 (in-office one-visit). Veneers $1,400–2,000 per tooth; Invisalign $4,000–6,500 depending on case length.
Three of four
Restorative care
Composite fillings, ceramic crowns and bridges, root canal therapy on uncomplicated cases (referred to an endodontist for the difficult ones), single-tooth implant restoration. The implant placement itself is co-managed with an oral surgeon we have worked with for ten years; the restoration we do in-house. We use ceramic in the smile zone, lab-fabricated crowns when the case calls for it, same-day milled crowns when the case allows.
Composite filling $220–380 per surface; ceramic crown $1,200–1,500; single-tooth implant restoration $1,800–2,400 (surgical placement billed separately by the oral surgeon).
Four of four
Family & pediatric
First visits from age 2 onward — the official American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommendation is age 1, but a first visit at 2 with a child who is comfortable in the chair is more useful than a first visit at 1 with a child who is afraid of it. Sealants on permanent molars when they erupt, sports mouthguards (custom-fit, two-week turnaround), fluoride for kids with developing enamel. We will not push pediatric work that the kid is not ready for; the goal is a patient who will still come to the dentist at thirty.
First-visit-of-the-year exam under most family insurance plans is $0 out of pocket; sealants $60–80 per tooth; custom sports mouthguard $120.
