Services
Sedation Dentistry
Our sedation dentistry services use oral conscious sedation and nitrous oxide to help anxious patients receive necessary care comfortably. Dr. Harris' expertise in sedation techniques ensures safe, stress-free procedures while maintaining patient awareness. This approach benefits those avoiding dental care due to fear, enabling comprehensive treatment through monitored relaxation while preserving oral health outcomes.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
We specialize in custom oral appliances for obstructive sleep apnea, offering alternatives to CPAP machines. Our FDA-approved devices reposition the jaw to maintain open airways during sleep. As Diplomates of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine, we collaborate with physicians to diagnose and treat sleep-disordered breathing, improving patients' quality of life through better sleep and reduced health risks.
Dental Implants
Our dental implant services provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts integrated with jawbone tissue. We offer single-tooth implants, implant-supported bridges, and dentures for patients missing one or more teeth. With over 5 million implants placed annually in the US, this durable solution preserves facial structure while restoring natural chewing function and aesthetics.
TMJ Therapy
We diagnose and manage temporomandibular joint disorders through comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment plans. Our approach includes diagnostic imaging, bite analysis, and non-invasive therapies like night guards and physical therapy exercises. This addresses symptoms such as jaw pain, clicking, and headaches while improving joint function and patient comfort.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional teeth whitening treatments use carbamide peroxide gel in custom-fitted trays for safe, effective results. This ADA-recommended method addresses discoloration from aging, diet, and medications while minimizing sensitivity. With 95% patient satisfaction rates, our take-home systems deliver noticeable improvements in 3-14 days under professional supervision for optimal safety and effectiveness.
