While we are anxious to get back to work and see all of our patients. Please bear with us as we adjust to the new normal. We have been working very hard on getting all of the PPE that is needed to keep our staff and patients safe. Due to the shortage and guidelines changing daily we aren’t quite there, yet. We are still open for limited hours seeing EMERGENT needs. We hope we get to see you all very soon! If you have any questions please contact the office directly.

UPDATE: Due to recent changes within the state guidelines, our practice will be open for dental emergency-related cases only. We strive to provide you the services you need and hope our efforts will ease the burden on emergency rooms for doctors to treat those affected by COVID-19. Dental emergency-related cases may include extreme pain, inflammation, or broken teeth, among other serious ailments. Please reach out to us if you are experiencing any issues.

Your oral health is our top priority and we want to ensure you get the best treatment provided and stay out of hospitals when possible.
