Services
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments effectively remove stains and discoloration using advanced dental technology. Our customized solutions address individual sensitivity needs while delivering dramatic results. Patients receive take-home trays with professional-grade whitening gel for continued maintenance between office visits.
Dental Implants
Permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts fused with jawbone tissue restore full chewing function and natural appearance. We offer complete implant restoration services including crown placement and bone grafting when necessary. Our technology ensures precise implant positioning for long-term success.
Porcelain Veneers
Custom-crafted porcelain shells transform smiles by correcting chips, gaps, and discoloration. This minimally invasive procedure requires only slight enamel removal before bonding ultra-thin veneers to tooth surfaces. Patients achieve durable, stain-resistant results that mimic natural tooth translucency.
Dental Crowns
Full-coverage restorations protect damaged teeth while restoring function and aesthetics. Our CEREC technology enables same-day crown fabrication from ceramic materials matching natural tooth color. Crowns address cracks, large fillings, and root canal-treated teeth with precision-fitting solutions.
Bonding
Tooth-colored resin material repairs minor chips, cracks, and gaps through direct application and sculpting. This cost-effective solution requires minimal preparation and provides immediate improvement in tooth appearance while maintaining structural integrity.

My initial visit was quite impressive. The office told me they would try to work me in early should someone else canceled, and this is exactly what they did. They called early and I was able to adjust my schedule to take advantage of the opportunity. Upon arrival, I was impressed with the office, it was a pleasing experience to visit a bright, nicely decorated facility. Due to pandemic, it had been over a year since I was last seen and I was pleased with the service provided. Detailed, answered questions, explained everything and enjoyed the conversations with the staff. Impressed is what I would

My daughter had her first cavity and was scared to death it was going to hurt. Richard Anthony explained everything he was going to do and was doing as he did it in a way she could relate too. Made her very comfortable with the process. Completely pain free. Both of my children see him and we have been going there for years. The staff are all so amazing and very personable. Really builds the children's confidence in maintaining their dental visit routines when you have a great dentist and hygienists. I couldn't ask for a better dental office!!!

This dental office goes above and beyond to make their patients feel comfortable and well cared for. When the pandemic shut many medical practices down for a short period of time in order to prepare to safely see patients again, Dr. Anthony remodeled their entire office, removing carpet and other soft surfaces to provide the cleanest, up to date environment for patients. Their staff is very friendly and professional. So happy I was able to move my dental care to Dr. Anthony's office after my dentist of 25 years retired!

Dr. Richard Anthony and his staff are extremely professional and kind in all aspects of dental care. I am always put at ease with his friendly staff and feel relaxed in their spa like environment. I just had my teeth cleaned by Haley, who is the most gentle hygienist. Dr. Anthony consistently has a positive demeanor and the best advice on dental care. I highly recommend Dr. Anthonys practice!
