Services
General Dentistry
Our general dentistry services include comprehensive exams, digital imaging, and hygiene cleanings to maintain optimal oral health. We diagnose and treat gum disease, perform root canals, and address pediatric dental needs with specialized care. Emergency treatments ensure immediate relief for urgent dental issues.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Transform your smile with veneers, bonding, and teeth whitening procedures. Our cosmetic treatments create aesthetically pleasing results through Snap-On Smile, ClearCorrect aligners, and smile rejuvenation techniques tailored to individual facial structures and preferences.
Restorative Dentistry
We restore dental function through fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants using tooth-colored composites. Bone grafting procedures support implant stability, while our laser dentistry minimizes discomfort during treatment and recovery.
Emergency Treatment
Same-day emergency appointments address severe tooth pain, infections, and trauma. Our team provides immediate stabilization and pain management for dental emergencies, prioritizing patient comfort and rapid intervention.
Laser Dentistry
State-of-the-art soft-tissue lasers offer precise, minimally invasive treatments for gum reshaping, cold sore therapy, and surgical procedures. This technology reduces bleeding, accelerates healing, and often eliminates the need for traditional anesthesia.

Dr Aurbach and his team are amazing. He saved my tooth and was able to give me a filling otherwise I would have to go get a root canal. This saves me a lot of pain and money. Thank you doc!

I took my dad here for the first time and he had a wonderful experience. Dr. Aurbach is one of a kind! He was patient and thorough. He did a detailed examination, extensive cleaning, and he even made adjustments to my dad's dentures for comfortablilty! His assistant was very personable and the office was spotless, everything we were looking for. We are happy to have Dr. Aurbach as our new family dentist.
