Services
Dental Veneers
Our No Prep FrontierVeneers combine aesthetic precision with functional durability for smile transformations. Utilizing advanced ceramic materials and digital design technology, we create ultra-thin restorations that maintain natural tooth structure while delivering dramatic cosmetic improvements. Each veneer undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure perfect fit and lifelike appearance.
Dental Implants
We provide precision-engineered implant solutions featuring biocompatible materials and customized abutment designs. Our implant restorations integrate seamlessly with existing dentition through advanced 3D modeling and milling technology. Each case receives specialized attention to ensure optimal osseointegration and long-term functional performance while maintaining natural aesthetics.
Clear Aligners
Our SMILE AGAIN Aligners offer discreet orthodontic treatment through custom-fabricated, BPA-free plastic trays. Using digital impressions and predictive movement modeling, we create sequential aligner sets that gradually reposition teeth with minimal visibility. Each case includes detailed treatment planning support for predictable, efficient tooth alignment.
Crowns & Bridges
We craft precision crowns and bridges using CAD/CAM technology and premium materials like zirconia and lithium disilicate. Our restorations ensure accurate marginal fit and natural occlusion through digital verification processes. Full contour bridges maintain structural integrity while replicating natural tooth anatomy for seamless integration with adjacent dentition.
Nightguards
Our custom nightguards and Kois Deprogrammers are fabricated using durable, FDA-approved resins for bruxism management. Digital bite registration analysis ensures precise occlusal relationships while maintaining proper vertical dimension. Each appliance undergoes pressure testing to guarantee even force distribution and patient comfort during extended wear.

I have worked with Frontier Dental Lab for over a decade. They are world-class, and I am lucky to have their expertise and excellent work just across town from my practice. In case you didn't know, they create smiles for the best dentists around the world - and many celebrities ask for a Frontier Smile specifically.
