What makes Dental Express so unique is our dental team’s wide range of expertise. Our dentists have decades of combined experience helping patients all across America. Some have worked in hospitals doing oral surgery rotations while others have cared for patients in foreign countries with limited access to dental care. Having such a knowledgeable team of doctors lets us offer many treatments that would require specialist referrals at your typical dentist.
Thanks to our team of all-stars, you don’t just get to enjoy a relaxed, fun, and family-friendly atmosphere at Dental Express, you get all your family’s dental needs taken care of under one roof, and you avoid many of those expensive specialist fees in the process.
Regular dental exams are one of the pillars of dental health. When you come in for your exam, we’ll take an in-depth look at your mouth and teeth to evaluate issues like tooth decay, cavities, or gum disease. From there, we’ll plan the best course of action to create your ideal smile.
Learn MoreNeed to straighten things out? Using clear, removable, personalized aligners, you can even out your smile without the hassle and dietary restrictions of metal braces. Whenever it’s time to eat, just pop them out. No food getting stuck in your teeth. No flossing around metal braces. Just a straight, happy smile!
Learn MoreFostering healthy dental habits at a young age is the best way to ensure your little one has a healthy smile for years to come. We’re happy to provide pediatric dental services in a fun, comfortable, and educational environment that will have your child excited about dental health. At Dental Express, taking your little one to the dentist is nothing to stress about.
Learn MoreThink of dental sealants as raincoats for your teeth. Once in place, they block the buildup of bacteria, tartar, plaque, and food particles, protecting your teeth from decay and cavities. Sealants are the perfect treatment for children who struggle with cavities or have difficulty maintaining healthy dental habits at home.
Learn MoreFluoride treatments use concentrated fluoride levels to provide an extra line of defense against tooth decay and cavities. These treatments are usually included as part of your routine dental cleaning and help patients of all ages maintain a healthy smile.
Learn MoreWith all the coffee and sugar-heavy drinks we consume these days, maintaining a white smile can be challenging. To help you reach your ideal smile, we offer both in-office and at-home teeth whitening treatments. See results in just twenty minutes at the office and within a week at home.
Learn MoreIf a cavity eats away at your enamel, then protecting your teeth and choosing the right filling for you is our main priority. Tooth-colored fillings help stop further decay, restore the strength of your teeth, and blend in with the rest of your smile. If you want a natural-looking solution to cavities or to replace your amalgam filling, ask your dentist about tooth-colored fillings.
Learn MoreWhen tooth decay gets out of hand, it can cause an infection in the pulp of your tooth. Also called endodontic treatment, root canals are how we treat these infections. During treatment, we remove the damaged pulp, clean the cavity, and fill the tooth, leaving you with a repaired and fully functioning smile.
Learn MoreA crown is like a suit of armor for your tooth. If one of your teeth is cracked, decayed, or discolored, a crown can protect it from further damage. Crowns can be made of porcelain, metal, or both and can be colored to blend in with your other teeth, maintaining a natural-looking beautiful smile.
Learn MoreDental bridges help bridge the gap between missing teeth. Whether supported by your natural teeth, a dental implant, or both, bridges keep your remaining teeth from shifting and causing chewing issues. If you’ve lost multiple teeth, getting a bridge can improve your oral health and restore the look of your smile.
Learn MoreHave a chipped or discolored tooth? Bonding and contouring involve using composite resin to correct your tooth’s shape and color, without the hefty price tag of other cosmetic procedures.
Learn MoreJust like crowns are a suit of armor for your teeth, porcelain veneers are like protective helmets. Customized and secured to the front of your teeth, veneers renew your smile by covering up crooked, chipped, stained, or decayed teeth. This quick and painless restorative treatment usually takes just two visits.
Learn MoreDid your kid lose a tooth at soccer practice? Did one of your fillings fall out on Christmas Eve? Whatever your emergency may be, we’re here to provide you with fast, quality treatment to manage your pain, fix the issue, and get you back to smiling as soon as possible.
Learn MoreWe do our best to preserve your natural teeth as long as possible, but when a tooth is beyond repair or threatening to disrupt your overall dental health, an extraction may be the best step forward. We offer different sedation options to make the experience as comfortable as possible and set you up with all the information and necessary medications you need for a speedy recovery.
Learn MoreNot all of them need to be removed, but if you’re experiencing pain or discomfort due to impacted or emerging wisdom teeth, we’ll evaluate your situation and come up with a plan that’s best for your dental health. We offer wisdom teeth extraction services at all six of our locations to remove any problem teeth and make your smile pain-free again.
Learn MoreDentures are an excellent solution for anyone who’s lost several or more teeth. We offer customized partial, full-removable, or implant-retained dentures to give you back your smile and have you chewing and speaking with confidence again.
Learn MoreDental implants are the most reliable and natural-looking way to restore your smile after losing a tooth. This treatment involves placing a metal post – usually made of titanium – into your gums that acts as a strong base for a crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are beneficial for anyone struggling with speaking or chewing issues due to a missing tooth.
Learn MoreTired of your removable dentures? It might be time to look into All-on-4 implants. This treatment involves four dental implants put in place to support a full set of dentures. The process usually takes place over several months and requires several follow-up appointments. Believe it or not, you can treat these dentures just like your natural teeth, without the hassle, adhesives, or dietary restrictions that come with regular dentures.
Learn MoreIf you have an intense fear of going to the dentist, we’ll work with you in any way we can to make your experience as comfortable as possible. When longer procedures or even regular dental cleanings become too stressful, we’re happy to offer nitrous oxide sedation to help you relax. When you come to Dental Express, we want you to feel welcomed without judgment, no matter your comfort level.
Learn MoreIf you have periodontal disease, then protecting your smile is our main concern. Our periodontal dentistry services eliminate plaque and tartar from your teeth, stop the spread of gum disease, and keep periodontitis at bay. We also offer laser gum treatment for any patients who want to reduce their “gummy” smile.
Learn MoreThis powerful treatment helps fight gum disease by cleaning out tartar and plaque beneath the gum line. Once we remove the harmful bacteria, we’ll smooth out your enamel to discourage any further buildup. If this treatment sounds scary, don’t worry! We’re happy to offer local anesthesia to numb the area.
Learn MoreIt’s as cool as it sounds! We use high-tech laser technology to zap away periodontitis. This state-of-the-art treatment is a faster, more accurate treatment for periodontal disease than traditional procedures — Not to mention, you’ll recover much faster too.
Learn MoreCrown lengthening is usually an aesthetic treatment that removes some of your gum tissue to reveal more of your tooth. In some cases, it’s used to create space for a crown, filling, or other restoration. This treatment is perfect for anyone who feels their smile is too “gummy.”
Learn MoreBelieve it or not, tooth decay is the most common infectious disease affecting children in the US today. By the time they reach kindergarten, 28% of children in the US have cavities. And it’s no surprise, considering how almost everything we eat and drink these days has some amount of processed sugar in it. To identify early risk factors and get a head start in the fight against tooth decay, Dental Express offers Caries (Cavity) Risk Assessments to infants and children between the ages of 0 and 5. When you bring your little one in for an assessment, we’ll ask you a short series of in-depth questions and perform a dental exam to determine their risk level. Based on the results, and if your child shows signs of early childhood tooth decay, we’ll come up with a plan to treat, manage, and prevent cavities in the future.
