Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services, including veneers and teeth whitening, address discoloration, gaps, and misalignment to create natural, confident smiles. We use advanced techniques like all-ceramic crowns and bonding for durable, aesthetically pleasing results. Patients benefit from personalized consultations to design tailored smile transformations.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth, combining surgical placement with prosthetic restoration. Our integrated approach ensures seamless treatment planning and execution, supported by an on-site lab for precision. Implants restore function and appearance, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers correct crooked, discolored, or worn teeth with thin, durable facings. The process involves minimal preparation and two visits for custom fabrication. Patients receive long-lasting, stain-resistant results that mimic natural tooth enamel, enhancing both aesthetics and confidence.
Preventive Care
Preventive care includes cleanings, exams, and fluoride treatments to detect issues early and avoid costly procedures. We emphasize patient education on brushing, flossing, and lifestyle habits. Regular checkups ensure early intervention for gum disease or decay, preserving long-term oral health.
Gum Disease Treatment
Our non-surgical gum disease treatments, like scaling and root planing, address early-stage periodontal issues. Advanced cases receive targeted interventions to halt progression and restore tissue health. Regular monitoring prevents recurrence, safeguarding overall wellness linked to oral health.

Questions
What should I expect at a free consultation or second opinion?
We review your goals, perform an exam, and take digital photos. Dr. Burton discusses options, and a treatment proposal is provided with no obligation to proceed.
What is the difference between no-prep, minimal prep, and traditional prep veneers?
No-prep veneers require no tooth removal, minimal prep involves slight enamel shaping, and traditional prep removes more structure. The best technique depends on your specific needs and goals.
How often should I brush and floss?
Brush twice daily with an ADA-approved brush and floss daily to prevent cavities and maintain gum health, especially before bedtime.
What happens to the bone when a tooth is extracted?
Bone loss occurs after extraction, but can be preserved with bone grafting or immediate implant placement to maintain structure for future restorations.
What are the benefits of tooth-colored fillings over silver fillings?
Tooth-colored fillings bond to the tooth, strengthen weakened areas, are less temperature-sensitive, and offer a natural appearance compared to traditional amalgam fillings.
