At Smiles By Design, we believe that restoring your smile should be a seamless and positive experience. Our advanced dental fillings are crafted to repair cavities and minor tooth damage with precision and care. Utilizing the latest technology, we ensure that the procedure is quick, painless, and effective. Our high-quality materials blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing result. We aim to not only restore your teeth but also boost your confidence and overall wellness, making every visit a step towards a brighter, healthier smile.

We use advanced materials like 3M Filtek One Bulk Fill for our composite fillings to ensure the best results for our patients. This material offers numerous benefits, including:

• Enhanced Durability and Strength: Prevents future fractures or wear.
• Improved Aesthetics: Blends seamlessly with your natural tooth color.
• Efficient and Comfortable Treatment: Reduces chair time and minimizes discomfort.
• Reduced Shrinkage Stress: Maintains the integrity of the tooth and filling.
• Wear Resistance: Provides long-lasting, smooth, and shiny fillings.

Our use of 3M Filtek One Bulk Fill ensures that you receive durable, aesthetically pleasing, and comfortable restorations every time.

Investing in technology allows our dentists to provide high-quality dentistry while also providing the convenience of same-day crowns. Our doctors use CEREC, the leading digital scanning and design software to create your new crown. That means no more temporary crown and no extra visit to glue on your final crown. Our dentists have complete control over the design of your restoration. Digital technology also allows us to create beautiful smile designs when providing this service.

Root canals have a reputation for being daunting, but at Smiles By Design, we transform this essential procedure into a comfortable and reassuring experience. Our skilled team uses state-of-the-art technology to perform root canals with minimal discomfort, ensuring your journey to oral health is as smooth as possible. By removing infected tissue and sealing the tooth, we alleviate pain and prevent further complications, allowing you to maintain a healthy, vibrant smile. Our compassionate approach and dedication to excellence mean you can trust us to handle your dental needs with the utmost care and integrity.

Crafting custom dentures at Smiles By Design is about more than just replacing missing teeth—it’s about restoring your confidence and quality of life. Our dentures are designed using cutting-edge techniques to ensure a perfect fit and natural appearance. We take the time to understand your unique needs and preferences, providing a solution that is both functional and beautiful. With our compassionate care and commitment to excellence, we strive to make the transition to dentures a positive and empowering experience, helping you enjoy a life full of smiles and well-being.

At Smiles By Design, we know that dental work can cause anxiety in some patients. That’s okay! No judgment here.

Our doctors provide sedation options to meet your needs. The options range from minimal to deep sedation. These types are tailored to meet your individual needs.

• Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas): A mild sedative inhaled through a mask, helping patients relax while remaining conscious.
• Oral Sedation: Involves taking a pill (such as Valium or Halcion) before the procedure, resulting in mild to moderate sedation.
• IV Sedation: Administered through a vein, providing a deeper level of sedation, with patients often having little memory of the procedure.
• General Anesthesia: Puts the patient into a deep sleep, used for more complex procedures or for patients with severe anxiety or special needs.

These options allow our dental professionals to tailor sedation to the patient’s anxiety level and the complexity of the procedure.
