We came here for a second opinion after being told that my wife and I needed $9-10k of dental work done. Every bit of the experience was better from check in through estimated total amount for treatment and how quickly we would be able to get in to have treatment started. Highly recommend!

I had an appointment this morning and this was the best experience I’ve ever had at the dentist. I haven’t been to a dentist in multiple years and I was very nervous and embarrassed.. Alexandria was SO nice and comforting. She is amazing at what she does and was very good at explaining what she was doing.

I broke a tooth on a Tuesday night and I called the next morning on Wednesday around 9:00 to see if I could be seen sometime soon to have it looked at. I had never been seen there before. They had an 11:00 open and I took it. Parking was easy to find in their private parking garage. The office was very clean and everyone was very friendly, warm and inviting.

Don’t wait for the pain to worsen. Schedule a consultation to evaluate your wisdom teeth and get a personalized treatment plan.
Wisdom teeth removal is a dental procedure to remove one or more wisdom teeth that are causing problems or are likely to affect your oral health.
Wisdom teeth may need to be removed if they’re impacted, causing pain, crowding, infection, tooth decay, or other problems that could affect your oral health.
No. If your wisdom teeth are healthy, fully erupted, and not causing problems, they may not need to be removed. We’ll recommend treatment based on your individual needs.
Removal is often recommended when wisdom teeth are causing pain, infection, damage to nearby teeth, or are unlikely to erupt properly. An examination and digital X-rays help determine the right timing for treatment.
We’ll examine your mouth and may recommend digital X-rays to evaluate the position of your wisdom teeth and determine whether removal is appropriate.
We’ll numb the area to help keep you comfortable before carefully removing the wisdom tooth or teeth. We’ll explain your treatment plan and discuss the most appropriate anesthesia or sedation options before the procedure.
Local anesthesia is used to help keep you comfortable during the procedure. Mild swelling and soreness afterward are normal and usually improve as the area heals.
The procedure often takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of teeth being removed and the complexity of your treatment. We’ll explain what to expect before your appointment.
Most patients begin feeling better within a few days, although complete healing takes longer. Recovery depends on the complexity of the procedure and individual healing.
Soft foods such as yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, soup, scrambled eggs, and smoothies are often recommended while your mouth heals. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions based on your treatment.
Follow your aftercare instructions, maintain gentle oral hygiene, avoid smoking and using straws, and take any prescribed medications as directed to support a smooth recovery.
The cost depends on factors such as the number of teeth being removed, the complexity of the procedure, and whether sedation is recommended. Before treatment, we’ll review your treatment plan, provide a cost estimate, and discuss your insurance and payment options.
