Preventative Dentistry
Preventative dentistry focuses on maintaining optimal oral health through personalized hygiene plans and early detection of potential issues. Our services include regular cleanings, exams, and patient education to stop cavities and gum disease before they develop. By emphasizing prevention, we help patients avoid costly, invasive treatments while ensuring long-term dental wellness.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry transforms smiles through procedures like porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, and Botox treatments. We offer customized solutions to address aesthetic concerns such as discoloration, chips, and misalignment. Our goal is to help patients achieve confident, natural-looking results using stain-resistant materials and advanced techniques tailored to individual facial structures.
General Dentistry
General dentistry encompasses diagnostic, preventive, and restorative services to maintain overall oral health. We provide fillings, crowns, extractions, and root canal treatments to address common dental issues. Our approach combines traditional methods with modern technology to repair damaged teeth, replace missing ones, and ensure proper function while preserving natural aesthetics.
Emergency Dentistry
Emergency dentistry addresses acute oral health crises like knocked-out teeth, severe pain, or infections requiring immediate attention. Our team offers same-day appointments for traumatic injuries, damaged restorations, and other urgent conditions. We prioritize rapid pain relief and stabilization to prevent complications while providing follow-up care for lasting solutions.
Orthodontics
Orthodontics corrects misaligned teeth and jaws using treatments like Invisalign clear aligners and custom retainers.

Office is super clean and they are all very safety conscious. Everyone is professional, very friendly and empathetic to my fear & anxiety of dentistry. Dr Balaze patiently helps me through any procedure. Anna is the best hygienist Ive EVER been to! She is gentle yet thorough and she takes the time to teach me during every visit! (Trust me - Ive had some really really bad dentist experiences in my past). I highly recommend Dr Balaze & his staff!

I had an incredible experience with Dr. Balaze! After having a faulty filling from a previous dentist, Dr. Balaze put all of my worries at ease. He took the time to learn about me not just as a patient, but as a person. I walked out feeling so happy with the incredible care and the end result!

Not many look forward to going to the dentist but I do! Drs Balaze and Gregg are so competent, friendly and easy to talk to. I like knowing what theyre doing to my teeth and they are always ready to share as much information as I want to know. The hygienist and receptionist are also very friendly and competent. I would recommend this team highly for the great work they do.

Jojo the hygienist is amazing! Just beginning the journey with Balaze & Gregg, but I like the feel thus far. Just finished an extraction and bone graft on a tooth that was split. Little early to tell but Dr Balaze is pretty terrific! He is light handed, and all business but with a great positive energy. Very satisfied!
