Excellence you can see
No more nodding along in the chair.
It’s hard to make a decision about something you can’t see. So we show you, and build trust one visit at a time.
Video exams
Watch your exam on screen as it happens. See the crack, the cavity, or the healthy tooth for yourself. It's your choice, never required.
3D cone-beam CT
In-office 3D imaging lets us plan implants and surgery precisely around your bone, nerves, and sinuses before we begin.
All-digital X-rays
Fast, comfortable digital radiographs with clear images we review together, right in the chair.
Dental implants
Replace one tooth and preserve the rest.
There are three ways to replace a missing tooth. Partials and bridges have served patients well for decades, and both rely on your neighboring teeth for support.
An implant stands on its own, like the root of a natural tooth, so the teeth beside it stay just as they are. Over time it’s often the most conservative and cost-effective choice.

Advanced implant surgery
Building the foundation for what’s possible.
Some smiles need a little more foundation before an implant. With years of experience in grafting and implant surgery, Dr. Michaels can often rebuild what’s needed. We’ll look at your scans together and explore what might be possible for you.
