We know that your time is valuable. That's why we offer a simplified office experience with online patient forms that you can complete prior to your appointment.

Inlays and onlays are dental restorations that are more extensive than dental fillings but less so than caps and crowns. They are typically formed in a dental lab and are made of gold, porcelain or resin depending on the patient's needs and aesthetic goals. An inlay refers to a restoration that is formed to fit the center of a tooth, whereas an onlay refers to a restoration that encompasses at least one cusp of the tooth.
Dental implants are surgical-grade root devices that support permanent tooth prosthetics that are manufactured to last a lifetime. These artificial roots are anchored in the bone beneath the gums where they become fused into the jaw. A crown is mounted atop the implant for a long-lasting and natural looking smile.

I have had many years of dentistry here with Dr. Benak. I have never experienced any pain. The dental hygienists are friendly and informative. Dr. Benak is kind, gentle, knowledgeable, and very good at what he does. I have had nothing but excellent care and very high quality dental work..and I've had a variety of crowns, fillings, cleanings, and other treatments. I have had several dentists over the years but there's only one that I recommend to others and that's Dr. Benak.

After some procrastination, due mostly to having been thru some bad experiences… with traditional braces, I finally decided to try the Clear Correct Aligners System that Dr. Benak suggested. This option was definitely much more appealing since they are clear aligners which are practically invisible. Most people, including my
