FEATURED DENTAL SERVICE:
DIAGNOdent Technology Examination

New Laser Detects Decay Earlier

One of the most important things we do for our patients is to identify and fill cavities. Unfortunately, traditional methods of detection are only 50% successful because cavities often hide along fissure lines, or inside biting or occlusal surfaces.

Laser Reflection Spots Imperfection

DIAGNOdent technology uses a simple, harmless laser diode to inspect your teeth, comparing reflection wavelength against a known healthy baseline wavelength to uncover decay.

Early Detection, Precise Correction

Using DIAGNOdent technology allows us to catch more areas of decay sooner and with more precision. It requires no x-rays, and is a relatively comfortable procedure.

Not only can the use of DIAGNOdent help prevent the spread of decay, but catching decay early means required fillings are simpler and shallower, preserving more of the tooth.

In addition, DIAGNOdent allows us to use minimally invasive fillings procedures, such as drill-free air abrasion.

Dental Services


You Can Trust Us with Your Smile

We offer a wide range of dental services using state-of-the-art technology with a focus on your comfort and care.

It’s the best way to build a long-lasting relationship with you. And it’s the best way for us to earn your trust.

Anxiety-free Dentistry

When many of our patients first come to us, they express concern, anxiety, and even fear about dental procedures.

At Alpha Dental, we care about your comfort. That’s why we offer comfort-care alternatives to our patients when appropriate:

  • Nitrous Oxide—for a sense of relaxation during dental procedures, nitrous oxide, or “laughing gas” is safe and effective and used in conjunction with oral anesthetic.

  • Televisions in the ceiling—a television positioned above you provides an excellent means of distraction while a dental procedure is in progress.

  • 24-Emergency Care—enjoy peace of mind knowing that an Alpha dental professional is always within reach should an emergency arise.

  • Patient Education on DVD—you’re less likely to be nervous when you’re better informed. Our Patient Education DVD is helpful and will answer many questions you have about your procedure.

  • Network of Specialists—should the need arise, we can call upon any one of the experienced, esteemed dental specialists within our network.

Proactive Protection

Brushing and flossing are just the beginning. Preventive dental care stops many problems before they start.

At Alpha Dental, we perform a wide range of high-tech preventive dentistry. And as always, we provide it with a gentle touch.

  • Complete Oral Exams—you’ll experience improved oral health when you have your teeth examined regularly. DIAGNOdent technology enables us to find decay sooner and with more precision.

  • Exams for Oral Cancer—because early detection is vital to surviving oral cancer, we perform a thorough oral cancer screening each time we perform an oral exam.

  • Teeth Cleaning—critical to preserving your dental and overall health, regular teeth cleaning prevents decay and the spread of disease.

  • Sealants—an excellent way to prevent plaque from collecting and forming cavities, we place clear or white plastic sealants in the grooves of the biting surfaces of back teeth, some of the hardest areas to keep clean.

Gentle Dental Treatment

Dental treatment—sometimes you just can’t avoid it.

At Alpha Dental, we perform dental procedures using the most progressive, and whenever possible, pain-free techniques and technologies available:

  • No Shot Fillings Using Air-Abrasion Technology— no need for needles, anesthetics, or numbness. Air abrasion avoids physical contact with the tooth, removes the smallest possible amount of tooth structure while placing a strong, natural-looking restoration.

  • White “Metal Free” Fillings— non-toxic mercury-free, composite fillings restore your tooth’s natural appearance. They require less tooth structure removal, are stronger, more durable, and less temperature sensitive than metal fillings.

  • Gum Treatment-- gum disease treatment can slow or stop the progression of gum disease. Different stages require different levels of treatment, including scaling and root planning, medications, or strict home care regimens. In some cases, we may refer you to a specialist.

  • All-Porcelain Metal-Free Crowns—for beautiful, natural-looking teeth. Unlike old metal crowns that leave a tell-tale dark blue line where the edge meets the gums, we place all-porcelain crowns above the gum line.

    This is actually better for your teeth and gums, and makes your new crown hard to differentiate from your natural teeth.

  • Implants—help stop bone loss and are used as an alternative to or in conjunction with dentures. Surgically implanted small titanium cylinders replace the roots of missing teeth.

  • Root Canal Treatment—restores the tooth when the root canal of your tooth becomes infected and can be an alternative to extraction.

  • Oral Surgery—several types of surgery when necessary to remove impacted teeth or cysts, bone augmentation, or replace missing teeth.

  • Dentures— for improved health, smile, and confidence, from full to partial dentures, immediate same-day denture appointments along with same-day denture repair is available.

  • Anti-Snoring Treatment—can restore your ability to get a good night’s sleep with a customized oral appliance.

  • Athletic Mouth Guards—provides protection for your teeth while participating in sports with a customized oral appliance.
