Services
Dental Implants
Our dental implant services provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts fused with jawbone tissue. This restorative treatment option addresses single or multiple missing teeth while maintaining facial structure integrity. Patients benefit from improved chewing function and natural-looking aesthetics that blend seamlessly with existing dentition.
Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet orthodontic treatment for straightening teeth without traditional metal braces. Custom-fitted trays gradually shift teeth into proper alignment over time while allowing for easy removal during meals and oral hygiene routines. This cosmetic solution appeals to adult patients seeking subtle smile enhancement.
Root Canals
Our root canal treatments address infected or damaged tooth pulp with precision cleaning and sealing of inner tooth chambers. Using advanced techniques, we alleviate dental pain while preserving natural tooth structure. Modern methods ensure comfortable procedures with high success rates for long-term oral health maintenance.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services deliver noticeable shade improvement through safe bleaching agents. Custom take-home trays and in-office treatments address surface stains from food, beverages, or smoking. Patients achieve brighter smiles with supervised care ensuring optimal results and minimal sensitivity.
Pediatric Care
Specialized dental services for children focus on preventive care, early intervention, and positive oral health habits. Our child-friendly environment includes routine checkups, fluoride treatments, and sealants to protect developing teeth. Education emphasizes proper brushing techniques and dietary choices for lifelong dental wellness.

I have very severe dental anxiety from bad experiences with dentists in the past. I even get nervous for routine cleanings. But I went in for a cleaning with Shanice today and was so pleasantly shocked as to how wonderful the experience was. Shanice was thorough but very gentle and patient. I am so grateful for finally having a good experience! Thank you!

Ive always had the best experience at Waterview over the past 6 years. The staff (dentists, hygienists, assistants, and front desk) are all very friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming. Some people fear going to the dentist and avoid making appointments Waterview makes the process as easy as possible and show they actually care. Would recommend 100%.

Dr Saj is a legend. The nicest guy, truly cares about patient comfort, and is superbly talented. The whole staff is amazing, and extremely accommodating. But Dr Saj has done 5 flawless root canals for me and for someone who hates the dentist and is very afraid of it, I couldnt feel any more comfortable coming to him. Highly recommend.

I have been going to this dental clinic for a few years now and seeing Dr Haji. The place is first class with frontline staff that are efficient and accommodating. Dr Haji is very skilled for a young guy and has an impeccable bedside manner. His assistants are also skilled and pleasant making for a good experience every visit. Would recommend this clinic to anyone in the area. Both locations are walking distance from my apartment plus have good hours.
