Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium fixtures implanted into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They serve as anchors for crowns, offering a durable, natural-looking solution. The process includes bone grafting if necessary, followed by osseointegration over 3-6 months. Our practice ensures proper oral hygiene to maintain implant longevity, with routine cleanings critical for success. Patients with periodontal disease may not qualify, requiring prior treatment.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign aligners correct crowding, spacing, and alignment issues using custom, virtually invisible trays. Treatment lasts 6-12 months, with aligners worn day and night except during meals. Digital scans via iTero technology create precise treatment plans, and follow-up appointments ensure progress. Retainers are provided post-treatment to maintain results. This non-invasive option suits adults and teens seeking discreet orthodontic care.
Dental Crowns
Crowns protect damaged teeth from further decay, restoring function and appearance. Made of zirconium, porcelain, or hybrids, they cover cracks, chips, or large fillings. The two-visit process involves tooth preparation, temporary crowns, and permanent bonding. Proper care includes regular brushing, flossing, and checkups. Crowns can last up to 20 years with optimal maintenance, preventing extraction in many cases.
Dental Cleanings
Bi-annual cleanings are essential for removing plaque and tartar buildup that brushing alone cannot address. This preventive care reduces risks of gum disease, cavities, and bad breath. Patients receive personalized hygiene education, and deep cleanings (scaling and root planing) may be recommended for periodontal issues. Routine exams accompany each visit to identify and address emerging problems early.
Emergency Dental Care
We provide immediate care for toothaches, fractures, and other urgent dental issues. Same-day appointments ensure swift diagnosis and treatment, often including root canals, extractions, or pain management. Radiographs and limited exams determine causes, with options discussed to stabilize the situation. Walk-ins are welcome, and our team prioritizes rapid relief for patients in distress.

Report
I started visiting Dr. Nima Raoufinia's office about 4 or 5 years ago. In that time, while the office has gotten more stylish (kudos to your decorator), the quality remains the same. Dr. Raoufinia is very thorough, knowledgeable, professional AND highly personable. The staff - love Roxy :) - is also very efficient and friendly. On my latest visit Saji was my hygienist and she answered my questions and followed up on pricing when she wasn't sure. Essential for out-of-pocket patients. I moved over an hour away nearly a year ago but wouldn't consider switching to someone else. If you want competent
