Dental implants and dentures are used to replace missing teeth so that you have a complete and beautiful smile. With either option, you will be able to go through your day confident in your smile. While dental implants and dentures provide a cosmetic benefit, they are also beneficial for your overall dental health.
In general dentistry, the dentist is the primary care provider for patients of all ages and is responsible for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of conditions, disorders and diseases affecting the teeth, gums and maxillofacial (jaw and face) parts of the body.
Even though general dentists primarily provide preventative care and minor restorative therapy, they are often able to perform a wide array of other dental procedures, including some minor cosmetic treatments.The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends that patients visit their general dentist at least once every six months to ensure proper oral health and functionality.

Whitening procedures have effectively restored the smile of people with stained, dull, or discolored teeth. The darker tissue of your teeth, the dentin, can become exposed as the outer layer of enamel is worn away by the effects of aging or things like caffeine and tobacco. Food particles are naturally attracted to a tooth's enamel by a certain protein.

Dr Peterson and his entire staff are great! I had neglected my dental care for years before I found Peterson Family Dentistry. I was embarrassed about the condition of my teeth and Dr Peterson was so positive and put me at ease. They take care to be gentle so getting my teeth repaired has been such a positive experience. Every staff member is very positive and kind. I’m not afraid to smile anymore. They have honestly given me my confidence back. I cannot recommend Peterson Family Dentistry enough!

Peterson Family Dental is amazing. I have been seeing Dr. Peterson for over 10 years. He is kind and gentle and always makes sure I leave with a smile on my face. Dr. Peterson did my youngest son's braces and he now has the most beautiful smile. I would recommend Dr. Peterson and his staff a million times over.

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Peterson since 2007. He and his staff are warm and caring and remember our family at each visit. I have had dental work done at this office including a crown and currently Invisalign. The local anesthetic injections are not painful, appointments are convenient and easy to schedule, and pricing is transparent. My daughter was nervous for a dental procedure. They took their time to calm her fears so her experience was a good one. The office is easy to get to off of Overland near Eagle road. I highly recommend Dr. Peterson Family Dentistry.

Dr. Peterson is the best dentist I have ever come across! I have had many negative experiences from childhood through adulthood. Dr. Peterson is the only dentist in all of those long years who correctly diagnosed the issues I was having with my teeth. He and his staff deeply care about their patients, make every effort to make you feel comfortable. My smile is immeasurably better since becoming his patient.

We love Peterson Family Dentistry. The staff is amazing and always so kind. The office is clean and welcoming. (No stinky dentist office smell.) My children get excited to go have their teeth cleaned. What!?! It's true.When we have had major dental work done, Dr. Peterson called that night to check on us. I appreciate that he talks about what needs to be done and does what is in the best interest of the patient. If you are looking for a new dentist, look no more. This place is great!
