Our services are based on our vision for optimal dental health:

Prevention, Options, Solutions

• Prevention: Periodic oral examinations and teeth cleanings are the cornerstone of preventive dental treatment. The condition of each tooth is evaluated and charted, education is provided about future dental needs, and your progress is monitored. Many of our child patients are active members of the " No Cavity Club" - don't miss their pictures posted in our office, across from the welcome desk. We also give chair rides for younger children, to help them feel comfortable and safe at our dental office.

• Options: If you develop a dental problem, Dr. Bacon will always present options for needed dental treatment, based on the condition of tissues or teeth. There is always more than one choice in managing your dental condition and there are often many choices when restoring or replacing a tooth. Dr. Bacon will review all the options with you, including an estimate of costs and insurance coverage, before you make your preference. We respect the patients right to decide and participate in dental treatment decisions.

• Solutions: You may have been wondering if there is a solution to your specific dental need. You may not be in any discomfort but would like your teeth to be straighter, whiter or have a more functional bite. Modern dental technology can provide solutions. Cosmetic dentistry and dental implants are becoming the norm rather than the exception. Orthodontics for adults is no longer unusual. As always, Dr. B will present options, including referral to specialists for specific assessment or treatment. We will find a solution for your dental needs.
