About Us
We want your time with us to be relaxing. Sample a cup of coffee, tea, or a cool glass of water as you peruse a magazine in the waiting area. Settle into our comfortable treatment chair and don a pair of headphones to listen to some of your favorite tunes. Look out upon our naturally landscaped shrubs and trees and maybe even see a deer or two.
We invest in the latest technologies such as digital impressions, digital radiographs and photography, and electric handpieces to deliver excellent dentistry and keep you comfortable while we work. Our well trained and professional dental team will make you feel at ease before, during, and after your appointment. You can rest assured that you are in good hands!
