When it comes to dental technologies and treatments, we remain on the cutting edge—always searching for the safest, most effective, and most advanced options to keep our patients’ smiles healthy. This is why we are proud to use ozone therapy, an all-natural, powerful treatment that guards against infection.
Infection, especially during dental surgery, is a risk that we take seriously. Since the mouth affects the health of the entire body, if toxins are left to fester in the tooth pulp during a surgery or procedure, damaging infection can potentially spread throughout the body. Though most dentists have used antibiotics to try to control bacteria in the past, we also offer the use of pure, natural oxygen and ozone as an alternative. This holistic therapy is a revolutionary and natural approach to dentistry, offering a new way forward in dental medicine.
Ozone therapy works by allowing pure oxygen and ozone to flood the site, killing any harmful microbes, while leaving healthy cells untouched. This technique is just as, if not more, effective than traditional antibiotics. In fact, when oxygen or ozone therapy is used instead of traditional antibiotics, patients can expect the following benefits:
Patients will love that ozone therapy is all natural and holistically based. Rather than adding medicines and chemicals to your body, ozone therapy simply adds something pure, something completely natural, and uses it to fight off potentially deadly infections just as effectively as many antibiotic pharmaceuticals.
We’re proud to offer this service to our patients, taking advantage of the incredible strides made in modern dentistry. If you have any questions about the use of ozone therapy and would like to learn more, call us today to schedule an appointment.

Mercury-Free Fillings
One common filling used by dentists is a material called amalgam, or silver fillings. Though many people have these fillings without experiencing any health consequence, amalgam does contain mercury, putting some patients at risk for complications, including allergic reactions to mercury and overexposure to the toxin. We are proud to offer our patients safe, mercury-free alternatives like our tooth-colored composite fillings.

Sleep Therapy
When patients experience sleep problems, like snoring or sleep apnea, they often fail to realize the role that their mouth plays in creating these issues. Our sleep services, including SomnoMed and sleep guards, gently push the jaw forward, creating a clear airway during the night that improves snoring and sleep apnea. This often eliminates the need for more intensive and uncomfortable treatments, like the use of a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine.
