braces
Orthodontics / Braces are used to correct crooked, or misaligned teeth, can sometimes be the source for premature tooth wear and broken teeth. We believe braces provide the opportunity to enhance health and self-esteem and may improve a person's overall quality of life.
-
botox / juvederm
Botox is a purified protein neurotoxin that works by blocking the transmitters between the motor nerves that innervate the muscle. The muscle cannot contract, causing wrinkles in the skin to smooth around the eyes and the lips. The effects last approximately three to six months.
-
bridges
A dental bridge is an affordable treatment option for replacing missing teeth. A fixed dental bridge can be supported by natural teeth or dental implants. Dental implants are longer lasting and more stable and do not require the dentist to remove any of the natural tooth structure.
-
cleanings
Routine dental cleaning is the best way for you to prevent gum disease and bleeding gums. Our dental cleanings are performed by a dental hygienist who will gently remove plaque and tartar from around the teeth and gums.
-
cosmetic dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is a series of procedures / treatments to help you achieve the perfect smile! Treatments can be used to repair chipped or cracked teeth, close spaces between teeth and improve the shape of your teeth.
-
crowns
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cover, or cap, placed over a tooth that is decayed, cracked or damaged. Tooth caps are used when a filling is an insufficient restoration or to improve appearance of teeth that are misshapen, misaligned or discolored.
-
dentures / partials
A denture is used when a person is missing all of their upper or lower teeth. Advances in materials make today's cosmetic dentures more natural looking and comfortable. A partial denture is used when some of the teeth are missing and the person is not eligible for dental implants.
-
gum disease treatment
Periodontal therapy can include scaling & roof planing as well as gum surgery for patients suffering from periodontitis, an advanced stage of gum disease. Dr. Hapney uses laser dentistry to eliminate infection in the gums and locally applied antibiotics to treat periodontal disease.
-
headache therapy
Temporomandibular Disorders (TMJ) therapy may be as simple as wearing a splint or mouth guard, adjustment to the bite (to create harmony), using orthodontic treatment, dental crowns or dental implants to change the timing and force of the bite.
-
implants
A dental implant is a more permanent solution for missing teeth. The implant actually replaces the root of the tooth, becoming fully integrated with the bone. While dental implants require a more investment initially, they have increased longevity and require less care and maintenance.
-
invisalign
Invisalign (Clear Correct) are transparent incremental aligners used to adjust teeth as an alternative to wire braces for teens and adults. These clear aligners are a virtually invisible way to improve your smile.
-
laser therapy
Laser dentistry is a safe and comfortable treatment that minimizes bleeding and swelling, resulting in faster healing times. Dental lasers allow many soft tissue procedures that traditionally require surgery such as treatment for a "Gummy Smile" or removable of extra tissue.
-
root canals
A root canal may be needed when cavities and decay progress to the root of the tooth. A root canal procedure will eliminate infection from inside the tooth. Tooth pain is usually the first sign patients' experience, though a dentist can spot infection, even if there is no dental pain.
-
tmj
Temporomandibular Disorders (TMJ) therapy may be as simple as wearing a splint or mouth guard, adjustment to the bite (to create harmony), using orthodontic treatment, dental crowns or dental implants to change the timing and force of the bite.
-
veneers
A porcelain veneer is a thin shell that is permanently bonded to the tooth to improve the shape, color, size and position of teeth. They can correct small gaps, improve the color of stained teeth, repair small chips or cracks, reshape teeth, lengthen teeth and improve alignment.
-
whitening
In-office usually only requires one visit; a protective shield is placed over your gums and soft oral tissues while the professional bleaching agent is then applied. We additionally offer at-home tooth whitening – an affordable and convenient treatment option.

I was made to feel right at home. My dental hygienist Cheryl was excellent at explaining the entire process and made me very comfortable. They even offer a complimentary parafin wax hand treatment during the dental cleaning. Highly recommend this debtist.
