Preventative Sealants

A dental sealant is a protective coating that is painted onto the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. It acts as a barrier, preventing cavities and helping to keep your child’s teeth healthy. Sealants can last for many years.

Same-Day, Metal-Free Crowns

There are many tissue components to the mouth, and some of those tissue acts as anchors to other parts of the mouth. Those anchors are called tissue-ties (frenum) and they attach our tongue to the floor of our mouth and our lips to gums. Sometimes these ties are tooth tight and can prevent proper feeding in infants or can cause speech issues in toddlers. The release of these tissues is called a frenectomy and will allow proper feeding and speech progression. This is a minor surgery performed with a laser that is made to cut the tissues.

“What an amazing team! From the moment we walked in the door we were welcomed with friendly faces! It was both of my girls first time at the dentist and from start to finish it was nothing but VIP service. Ashley and Dr Zimmer were amazing. My girls were “scared” to go to the doctor and now asked if we can “go back tomorrow”! HIGHLY recommend this practice! The office is immaculate (we even got a tour). If you have any concerns or hesitation about going to a dentist for your kids this is def the place to go! If I could give them 10 stars I would!”
