State-of-the-art dentistry
Our commitment to quality care is reflected in all of the new technologies we have introduced in our community. We know you will want to tell your friends and family about these services.

We appreciate your invitations, and have a referral program that recognizes your thoughtfulness in a tangible way.
Smile analysis
Many of our patients want to know if the opportunity for esthetic smile improvement exists. We will be happy to discuss how you can benefit from the latest advances in cosmetic dentistry.
Laser dentistry
In 1990, there was a true revolution in dentistry. In that same year, when we introduced Spokane to lasers , there were fewer than 400 instruments world-wide. Since that time, we have utilized over 20 different lasers and currently practice with 9 of the best. Each has a broad spectrum of applications. We are firmly committed to their use, our staff is superbly trained, and we are proud to have established solid leadership in the field. (Click on this link to learn more: Laser Dentistry).
Conservative care
We are very pleased to have been the first office in the Pacific Northwest to implement technologies that have helped to re-define state-of-the-art oral heath care in the Twenty-first Century. Since 1980, we have provided our patients with an ever-widening range of services that have transformed the practice of dentistry and brightened the smiles of thousands of our patients.
Same day crowns
CAD/CAM technology (computer aided design / computer aided manufacturing) allows us to provide beautiful porcelain fillings and crowns in one visit. If you have an old silver filling or fractured tooth, you can have a new restoration or crown in abou an hour and a half. (Click on this link to learn more: (Same Day Crowns).
Teeth lightening
An attractive smile is the universal language. Anyone who wants whiter teeth should take advantage of our easy-to-use lightening program, with which we typically achieve dazzling cosmetic results. (We are currently offering a "Special" on teeth lightening - click on this link for details: Special of the Month).
Periodontal care
Because there is a link between periodontal disease and heart disease,
stroke, diabetes, respiratory illness and low term birth weight, we believe your treatment should focus on health. To that end, we apply "Energy Medicine" with lasers and the power of focused light when providing your periodontal (gum) care. Our patients enthusiastically endorse the laser because of its dramatic effect on the resolution of periodontal infection. They appreciate our team approach to excellence in dentistry and recommend laser assisted therapy to their friends. (Click on this link to learn more: Healthy Gums).
Intra-oral photography
Our miniature television camera fits on the end of an instrument not much larger than a toothbrush. It clearly projects an image on a monitor and is a valuable diagnostic tool for our professional team. It also facilitates the ease with which our patients can see their own teeth, fillings, crowns, and gums, in real-time. "Co-diagnosis" is a reality for our patients who desire to take part in their own treatment planning process. "I see what you mean" becomes a part of their working vocabulary.
Digital x-rays
We were the first office in Spokane to utilize Digital Radiography that is seamlessly integrated with our computerized patient record keeping system. Digital radiography is the method of capturing an x-ray image, breaking it into electronic pieces (pixels), and displaying it on a computer monitor. There are a number of advantages of digital x-ray technology. First and foremost, it requires about 85% less radiation exposure than conventional film. Secondly, we can see and understand the conditions in the mouth much more clearly when viewing magnified x-ray images. With a visual understanding of the conditions that influence their options, our patients are better able to participate in their own diagnosis and treatment planning process.

Air purification
We have 5 hospital grade HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) units in our office that are running continuously. We can all breathe a little easier, knowing that these filters remove biological aerosol contaminants, odors, gases, and vapors from the atmosphere.
