Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that look and function like natural teeth. Our specialists use advanced imaging technology to ensure precise placement and optimal results. This service includes comprehensive treatment planning, surgical placement, and restoration with crowns or bridges.
Orthodontics
We offer traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners for correcting misaligned teeth and bite issues. Our orthodontic specialists create customized treatment plans to achieve optimal dental alignment and facial aesthetics. Treatment includes regular adjustments and post-treatment retention planning.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services deliver brighter smiles through safe, effective bleaching treatments. We offer both in-office whitening and custom take-home kits with dentist-formulated whitening gels. Our treatments address various types of tooth discoloration while minimizing sensitivity.
Oral Examinations
Comprehensive oral exams assess dental health and detect potential issues early. Our examinations include oral cancer screening, gum disease assessment, and digital imaging when necessary. We emphasize preventive care through regular checkups and personalized hygiene education.
Periodontal Disease
Specialized periodontal care addresses gum disease at all stages. Our treatments include scaling and root planing, gum contouring, and maintenance programs for chronic conditions. We focus on preserving dental health through advanced gum disease management techniques.

Report
When Teresa worked in the front office there was great organization and she knew patients and dentals plans and when to recall patients. This has all changed - I have only been called once in the last year; not the regular four visits. I am very disappointed and I am thinking of changing my dentist office after 40 years

Dr. Caplan and Dr. Rodney were obsessed with providing maximum service per my benefits... suspicious no? The new dentist provides the best care for me and my family Ages 1 3 32 and 34. I will reccomend them to my friends in the hood for sure!

Report
The neighbourhood has been forever changed. The new owners seem to think that they own beyond their property line. I have personally witnessed on two occasions a service technician (one Rogers, one Bell) being berated and bullied for parking their clearly marked service truck in the alley partially obstructing the dental offices driveway. (not because the dental office parking lot was full and there was little chance of anyone needing to leave the lot anytime soon, mind you). Even when it is explained that they are on a service call, need to climb the pole at the corner of the property etc

I hate the dentist. I have a big phobia to them from some childhood issues. I had to get some emergency work done here and they were very kind and gentle. It was a positive experience and I will easily continue to be a patient.
