Questions, concerns, and hopes for  your smile

Wicker chairs and a small table create a cozy nook in the dentist’s sunlit waiting area near a window, with a bench and snow visible outdoors.

Parking

Street parking is available on Harrison Street and Front Street, and a public parking lot is located at the corner of Harrison and Front.

Finances and Insurance

We believe patients should determine the care they want, not insurance programs. Due to the restrictions of dental insurance, we choose to treat patients based on their specific needs not their insurance plans. If you do have dental benefits, we are more than happy to submit claims on your behalf, but we do require full payment for services rendered at the time of treatment.
