Every case starts the same way: a conversation about what’s going on, then a plan built around what we actually find. These are the services we provide in our Las Vegas office, grouped by what you might be dealing with.
New here? Your first visit is 60 to 90 minutes: full records, a real exam, and a plan we make together. Not sure which of these you need? That’s normal, and it’s what the first visit is for.
Checkups, cleanings and gums
Hour-long hygiene visits and a real exam, on the schedule your gums actually need.

- Periodontal Disease Treatment: protecting the foundation your teeth sit in
- Family Dentistry for Teens and Adults: who we see, and who we’ll happily point somewhere better

Jaw pain, clenching and grinding
We work out whether it’s the muscles or the joint before we treat anything.
- TMJ Treatment: finding what’s actually driving the pain
- Night Guards: we make them, and we don’t recommend one for everybody; why the diagnosis comes first
- Buccal Massage: for muscle-origin jaw tension, once an exam has established that’s the cause

Breathing, tongue, saliva and sleep
How you breathe, where your tongue rests and how much saliva you make all show up in your teeth.
- Myofunctional Therapy: about 8 weeks, with a certified myofunctional therapist
- Tongue-Tie Release and Laser Soft Tissue Surgery: using our LightScalpel CO2 laser
- Dry Mouth: it starts with an exam, and a saliva test only if it’s warranted
