• Dental Prophylaxis (thorough dental cleanings above and below the gumline, detailed intra-oral exam and charting, and complete treatment planning.

• Periodontics (procedures to treat gum infection and bone infection around the tooth roots)

• Endodontics (root canal, vital canal, and tooth shortening)

• Oral Surgery (tumors, cancer, trauma, dentigenerous cyst, oro-nasal fistula, and more)

• Exodontics (from routine extractions to complex surgical extractions including fangs and carnassial teeth)
