Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants offer a permanent solution for missing teeth, restoring both function and aesthetics. Our custom implants ensure a natural look and feel, allowing patients to eat, speak, and smile confidently. We assess individual needs to create tailored treatment plans for single or multiple tooth replacements.
Invisalign
Invisalign provides a discreet alternative to traditional braces using removable, clear aligners. This orthodontic treatment straightens teeth without metal wires, ideal for adults and teens seeking a subtle solution. We offer personalized assessments to determine suitability and create precise treatment timelines.
Root Canals
Root canal therapy removes infected or damaged tooth pulp to alleviate pain and prevent extraction. Our dentists use advanced techniques to ensure comfort and preserve natural teeth. This procedure restores dental health while maintaining the tooth's structural integrity for long-term function.
Preventive Hygiene
Regular cleanings and exams prevent dental issues and maintain oral health. Our hygienists remove plaque buildup, screen for gum disease, and provide personalized care advice. These visits are essential for early detection of cavities, oral cancer, and other potential problems.
Oral Surgery
We perform extractions, bone grafts, and other surgical interventions to address complex dental conditions. Our team prioritizes patient comfort with sedation options and thorough post-operative care. These procedures resolve infections, prepare for prosthetics, or correct structural abnormalities.

My experience today is ok but not as good as my previous visits. The hygienist tends to look away from time to time while she's moving the instrument inside my mouth. On the positive note, she's very knowledgeable.

I was pretty anxious going in to the appointment. The hygienist was extremely courteous , kind and gentle- took the time to explain everything she was doing . Kept asking if I was doing alright. Non-judgmental, kind, courteous, patient and Im really glad I booked there.

I just had the most amazing experience here. I am terrified of the dentist. After a little over 10 year's of putting it off, I went in. The staff, Assistant and Dr. Sadaf Kashani were all very welcoming. You have no idea the fear I've had in the past about this. I just want to thank you all so much. I am actually looking forward to my next visit. 10/10 would recommend!
