What I treat at the office

I practice general, preventive and restorative dentistry. I don't cover every dental specialty — and that's fine. When your case needs someone else, I tell you directly and help you get there.

Dental checkup

A complete look at your oral health — no rushing. I explain what I find, what it means and what options you have. You won't be asked to commit to anything before you've understood it fully.

Ideal if you haven't had a checkup in a while, or if you've noticed something that concerns you. The appointment usually takes 40 to 60 minutes and includes the examination, explanation and time for questions.

When it can't wait

Toothache & urgent care

Pain, a broken tooth, a loose crown or a swelling. If something can't wait, message me on WhatsApp. I'll do my best to fit you in the same day or the next.

Pain doesn't always mean the same thing — diagnosis requires an in-person exam. What I can tell you is that I won't leave you without an answer if I can help it.

Long-term health

Preventive cleanings

Professional cleaning and periodic checkup. The most practical way to keep small problems from turning into big ones. Includes guidance for your daily routine at home.

Recommended once or twice a year depending on your oral health. If you have concerns like gum sensitivity or staining, we can talk about those too.

Conservative dentistry

Fillings & restorations

Cavities, chips or worn teeth. The goal is always to preserve as much healthy tissue as possible. If a filling can do the job, I won't suggest something more invasive.

I use tooth-colored composite resin for most restorations. Each case is different, and I explain the options clearly before we proceed.

Based on clinical evaluation

Root canal treatment

When the nerve is affected and the tooth can still be saved, a root canal may be the right choice. That decision is made after an in-person examination — never remotely.

In most cases a root canal requires at least one X-ray. I explain the procedure, what to expect during recovery, and what happens next. No vague answers.

Professional judgment

Specialist referrals

Implants, orthodontics, oral surgery or advanced periodontal treatment are outside my scope. If that's what you need, I'll say so clearly and connect you with colleagues I trust.

I'd rather be upfront about what I don't do than take on something that isn't my area. When I refer, I follow up.

What I don't do — and why that matters

I don't place implants, do orthodontics or perform oral surgery. These require specialists with specific training and equipment that isn't part of my practice. If that's what you need, I'll refer you clearly and follow up where I can.

I'd rather have an honest conversation about your options than take on something outside my scope. That, too, is part of the care.
