services under one roof
Cleanings
An oral hygiene visit at our office is much more than a simple spray and wash. We pride ourselves on our dedication to removing the bacterial load that accumulates in the oral cavity in between visits. In addition, we perform very careful exams of the health of the gums and bone surrounding teeth to ensure that your homecare will be effective.
Last, but certainly not least of our general dental services, we perform an oral cancer screening. Though oral cancer is not too common, we take the extra time to rule out its presence.
Restorations (Fillings & Crowns)
Depending on the presence and extent of the decay, treatment may be indicated. If caught early in the process, most cavities can be prepared and filled with a restorative material before any further damage can occur. For this reason, we strive to detect caries early.
Take comfort in knowing that if you do require restorative work, Dr. Perez will take the time to explain the situation and the treatment necessary to fix it with minimal discomfort. We pride ourselves on our proven anesthetic injection technique that greatly reduces the pain of the ‘shot’.
Extractions
This includes unerupted and partially erupted wisdom teeth. No matter your individual needs, Dr. Perez has much experience in simple and more complex surgical extractions. He also maintains a relationship with specialist providers in the area and will at times rely on their experience for overly complicated cases. In summary, we will make the process of losing a tooth (or teeth) the most painless it can be, and prioritize this among our dental services.
Root Canals
Unfortunately, this swelling that occurs causes more damage to these sensitive tissues. The result is what we refer to as a ‘hot-tooth’. The pain caused by this process is very real and is sporadic. It can be provoked by temperature changes (usually hot foods or liquids) and from biting pressure. If left alone these teeth will often feel better, for a short time. This occurs because the nerve inside has died. Unfortunately, the relief is only temporary as the next phase involves the accumulation of dead tissue and dead inflammatory cells. The result is an abscess that begins to form around the tip of the tooth. If left untreated, the pus that accumulates can tunnel through the bone and gum and will drain into the oral cavity.
Dr. Perez has performed hundreds of Root Canals and is very well-acquainted with diagnosing and treating these symptoms. Our injection technique coupled with our genuine concern for your comfort, will ensure that we get you out of pain with as little discomfort as possible. Most patients leave in much better spirits than they arrive.
Emergency Care
In addition, we respond to voice messages, and email. No matter your particular need, we our confident that our genuine concern for your well-being will be evident. Whether the issue can be resolved with a simple adjustment, or if you require a Root Canal, we put your comfort first.

Invisalign®
Your individual treatment is tailored to the you with the help of Orthodontists working for Invisalign. Tooth movement is accomplished by variations in the clear aligners. Though the number of aligners varies by case, the process is always the same. Slight pressure is built in to each aligner and a force is applied to the teeth. The body senses the pressure and triggers a remodeling of bone that allows dimensional movement of the teeth where the force is applied.
The final result is the smile you always wanted. Click here to find out more and come in for a consultation when you are ready to begin your custom treatment.
