A smile can be the most eye-catching feature of your face. Even a subtle change can make a big difference in the way you look and feel. New techniques like whitening, bonding, enamel shaping, veneers, and white fillings allow us to create a beautiful smile with, at times, only minimal changes to existing teeth.
Teeth Whitening is actually a mild bleaching process that restores stained or discolored teeth to a healthy, natural color. Don't be misled by unproven and ineffective over-the-counter whitening solutions. Our office uses an advanced procedure that is only available from your dentist. Accidents - If a tooth has been traumatized, sometimes the nerve will gradually "die, " and the tooth becomes dark.
Implants are a remarkable procedure. Implants can replace any or all of your teeth. The implant becomes integrated with your bone and acts like a bolt which ultimately supports a new tooth. Some of the advantages of implants for patients who wear dentures are denture stability, increased ability to chew and enjoy their food along with increased patient comfort, appearance and confidence.
Healthy gums are the foundation for your teeth, much like the foundation for your house. Healthy gums provide the support needed for your teeth to function as they should. Having unhealthy gums is like having termites in the foundation of your house. To the untrained eye everything seems fine, but progressive and often irreversible damage is being done.
Prior to the commencement of any treatment, fees and financial arrangements will be discussed with you. We expect payment in full at time of service, but we will be happy to file most insurance claims for you with the reimbursement going directly to you. Please bring your insurance plan information with you on your first visit.

Long overdue review but I have been going to see Dr Dunn my whole life (his dad actually for my first decade!), and recently Dr Castro as well. Just a terrific family practice, and I've run into some bad dentists in times where I lived out of the area, so it makes me appreciate Dr Dunn and Castro even more. They do a great job and the overall service and care is top notch. Don't hesitate to make them your primary dental practice.

I had to go to 2 other dentists before I found the one I liked. The staff is great, Serene at the front desk, and Marcia the hygienist were terrific. This is clearly an office who cares about patient care. They are knowledgeable and skilled. While the other dentists had all the bells and whistles, they also relied on their technology and not on their intuitive knowledge. As a result, they were recommending unnecessary procedures. Go to Dr. Dunn.

I have been treated at this practice by two generations of doctors Dunn. My wife and I go regularly for semiannual hygiene appointments, which always are performed by the same technician hygienist. This practice is state of the art and the two Experienced dentists thereb, Dr. Timothy Dunn And April Castro are excellent. Over the years we have had extensive dental work done and we're always pleased by the honesty of this practice as well as the quality of the work. You cannot do better in locating dentists for your family.

I have been coming to this dentist for over 15 years. I was a patient of Dr. Dunn senior, and now am a patient of his son Dr. Timothy Dunn who took over the practice when his father retired.
I came to this practice as a very nervous dental patient. One of the things that makes this practice special is that the staff doesn't change-over every time you go there. Marsha has been cleaning my teeth every 6 months since I started with the practice. When you see the same people regularly you develop a level of trust that is difficult to do when the staff changes every month like it seems to
