    Dealing with shots in my gums since a young age, and alot of them for cosmetic needed dentistry due to an inherited trait, II find that this dentalvibe technology has overcome my dread of dentists and needles in my gums. I can honestly say it was a pain free experience and I didn't even know I had gotten three shots in my mouth, I was asking the dentist,who is great by the way,when r the shots coming and she said they're done. AMAZING NEW DENTISTRY TOOL 10s all around and those are perfect 10 s. I recommend to anyone seeking a dentist to find one who uses dentalvibe. Thanks to doctor doreen peterson my dentist for using the most advanced technology and for being the kind heart fully warm doctor that she is. My experience was great...top notch.

How to schedule an appointment:

We want to meet your expectations!  When you call to schedule your first appointment, please let us know what you are scheduling for:

A comprehensive exam: This will include a thorough examination and a full set of x-rays of the teeth and gums. From this assessment, we will diagnose any problems we see and put together a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your specific dental needs.

A problem-focused exam: If you are having pain, sensitivity, or another dental issue, we will examine that specific area and take the x-rays needed to diagnose the problem. From there we will explain your treatment options. We will do our best to get your treatment started at your initial visit. If the treatment needed is extensive or requires us to collaborate with dental specialists in the area, we will outline the next steps to receiving appropriate care. 

Payment Options:

We accept most PPO dental insurance plans. If you would like to know if we are in-network with your specific plan or have questions about your coverage, please call our office and we would be happy to have our insurance specialist check for you.

For patients who do not have dental insurance or have a non-PPO dental insurance plan, we do offer a membership program which provides substantial savings on all procedures including routine exams, cleanings, x-rays, and any treatment provided in our office.
