New Technology / Air Abrasion

New technology has given us another gift in the form of AIR ABRASION. This instrument allows us to gently remove decay in a very precise manner while preserving the majority of healthy tooth structure. For small cavities this means up to 10 times the amount of healthy tooth saved over the old “drill” and silver fillings. The cleaned cavity is then filled with a tooth colored composite.

The best part is that if the cavities are found early, before they get big, they can be painlessly filled without the annoying numbness we used to associate with dental fillings. The procedure feels like air being blown onto the tooth. In fact that is exactly what it is: a stream of air carries a fine powder against the cavity which wears away the decay.

Get Your Teeth Checked at min. 2x/Yr

The important thing to remember is to get your teeth checked early and often (at least twice a year) so that cavities can be found when they are small enough for this revolutionary new procedure.

No Fear Dentistry

We believe that everyone deserves a life of pain free dental health and a beautiful smile. We have dedicated our lives to helping our patients achieve that goal. Our motto is:

“The art of dentistry: gently restoring the health that God created.”

We do just about everything from crowns and fillings to root canals and implants.

Firstly, I called late on Thursday just before they closed for the day. This was kind of an emergency situation. I explained things to the very courteous receptionist, and she managed to squeeze me in first thing the next morning. So 5 stars + 100 goes to the front of this business. Next morning, I met Dr. Rutherford and he made me feel comfortable as I get a bit anxious at the dentist. He explained everything to me, and kept me feeling "not nervous" throughout. I have to say, I've definitely found my new dentist. 5 Big Stars to the doctor. Lastly, they had an opening for a cleaning that morning, which I took advantage of. I have to say that the hygienist is absolutely the best dental hygienist I've ever seen. She definitely is an expert in her trade. Praises all around. I would recommend this place to everybody. What a wonderful experience.

I've come here several times for a cleaning and I've had some major work on my teeth done. Every experience has been top notch. My hygienist even taught me things I probably should have learned as a kid, but never had the support I needed at home to take proper care of my teeth. I can now, in turn, properly teach my kids how to take good care of their teeth so they don't have to spend thousands of dollars fixing what could have been prevented. I drive well over an hour to come here, and it's 100% worth it.
