  • Tooth Loss:Β Missing teeth can affect your ability to eat, speak, and enjoy life. We offer various solutions, including dental implants, bridges, and dentures, to restore your smile.
  • Oral Cancer:Β Older adults are at a higher risk for oral cancer, making regular screenings an important part of senior dental care.

I am VERY pleased with Dr. Kimi Patel and her staff. I will admit, I was not the friendliest on my 1st appointment after seeing my treatment plan as I had just had quite a few procedures done at another dentist. However, that had absolutely NOTHING to do with Dr. Kimi, and she was still very kind to me. I just went for a filling/crown today. This isn't my 1st crown, but it was my 1st with her, and the 1st time I feel everything went smoothly and I felt extremely cared for and listened to. She was so patient and explained everything along the way. She is very personable and thorough. I look forward to her caring for my teeth for years to come.

First, I was lucky enough to get a same day apptointment. Upon my arrival I waited less than 5 minutes before my tech came to get me . The whole staff was so friendly & welcoming. I love the fact of Dr Kimi ask what I needed or if I had any concerns before she did her examine to my mouth to see what I needed. She also explained in full detail the procedures for what I needed; prior to doing the procedures. The tech and Dr Kimi kept me laughing and they even help me pick a restaurant to go to after my dental work because it was my birthday. Dr Kimi did such an amazing job on my teeth that I really wanted to cancel my dinner date. I am very very pleased with the outcome. Now, I am surely looking forward to getting aligners from their office. ~OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE~ 5πŸ’«πŸ’«πŸ’«πŸ’«πŸ’«
