03 · What they share

One standard, two hands

Both dentists treat general, cosmetic, and restorative cases in this office, plan with the same digital imaging, and stay with the patients whose plans they wrote. Where a case suits one clinician’s focus more than the other, they say so.

Written estimates before treatment
Digital and 3D imaging let you see the same images the dentist sees, so options can be compared side by side before treatment begins. Comfort and sedation options are reviewed at the consultation, and suitability depends on your medical history and current medications.
