Comfort by Design

If you thought discomfort and dentistry went hand in hand, we've got another thought for you. We've designed our practice specifically to give us every advantage in providing excellent patient care. From our brand-new, spacious, high-tech facility, to the way we provide patient services… everything is purposely engineered to make you comfortable, and to make us effective. Plus, you'll notice right away that we don't just sit you down in the chair and start working on your teeth—we take all the time required to assess your oral health status, listen to your concerns, and help you think through your objectives.

So go ahead and browse through the services we offer. We think you'll be very comfortable with our approach to dentistry, and with our resources for achieving and maintaining beautiful, healthy smiles.

Preventive Services

It's not easy to maintain consistently good oral health. That's because in the invisible but serious battle against gum disease and tooth decay, there's no neutral ground. You're either fighting it offensively, or you're losing. One moment after you brush and floss, those native oral bacteria are back at it again, repopulating their favorite playground, your mouth. Our approach to the battle includes not only the cleanings that we provide here, but an emphasis on careful patient education so that you can continue the battle effectively at home. Who knows? You might even end up enjoying what you learn, since it's done right at your chairside, through the state-of-the-art Casey video system.

Our preventive services include:

  • Cleaning & Hygiene
  • Regular Check Ups
  • Patient Education via The Casey System
  • Dental Sealants
  • Breath Rx Breath Treatment
  • Nightguards to protect against Bruxism

Restorative Services

Life can take quite a toll on your teeth. Aging, accidents, unchecked periodontal disease, and just plain wear and tear can lead to cracked, broken, discolored, or missing teeth… all of which can lead to further problems if not caught and corrected. But quick fixes and reactive restoration won't help for long. That's why we're careful to emphasize 'comprehensive, proactive' restorative care. With today's excellent materials and advanced techniques, we can bring back your smile and keep you smiling for years to come. Our restorative services include:

  • Tooth Colored Fillings
  • All-Porcelain Crowns, Onlays, & Inlays
  • Bridges
  • Dentures & Partial Dentures
  • Root Canals
  • Dental Implants

Cosmetic Services

Most people are so used to their smile that they never think about changing it. But few realize how great an impact just a few tiny changes can make on their perspective on life. In fact, very few people are even aware of the many ways available these days for turning ordinary teeth into extraordinary smiles! From simple whitening, straightening, and shaping procedures, to more extensive reconstruction, we think you'll find that Dr. Gray is experienced and skilled with whatever's required to help you look your best.

  • Whitening
  • Orthodontics
  • Tooth Colored Fillings
  • Bonding
  • Porcelain Veneers
  • All-Porcelain Crowns, Onlays, & Inlays

Gum Disease

We take your periodontal care seriously, because we know what many people don't: gum disease is both silent and dangerous. Since it's relatively painless and symptomatic in the early stages, it can advance pretty far before the victim realizes what's going on. And that can mean tooth damage, tooth loss, bone loss, and extensive dental work. Our solution is to offer the best prevention education we can, keep a vigilant watch over any suspicious areas, chart everything, and offer the latest in in-office therapy methods.

  • Diagnostic Services
  • In-Office Therapy

  • General Extractions

Technology

We appreciate and take advantage of a considerable amount of new technology, to the extent that it allows us to better care for you. Some new technologies simply help us run our practice better—like our in-office computer network that lets us take care of just about everything chairside, without paper, fuss, records handling, or storage problems. Or our state-of-the-art sanitation center that ensures cleanliness and safe handling of all instruments and materials. Other kinds of 'gadgets' give us new ways to observe, assess and diagnose what's going on inside your mouth… like digital radiography, our intra-oral camera, microscopes, etc. Some kinds of technology allow us to keep you comfortable during procedures… like massage pads on our chairs, or headphones with music or movies at your disposal. And, technology like our Casey Patient Education video system helps us keep you 'in the know' about your own dental health.
