One of the most important parts of your dental visit is the oral cancer screening. The Oral Cancer Foundation predicts that over 43,000 Americans will be diagnosed with oral or pharyngeal cancer this year. The earlier cancer is diagnosed, the better the overall prognosis will be. We will perform the oral cancer screening during your routine dental check-up.
Our goal is to detect cancer in the earliest stages so that it can be treated quickly and efficiently. Oral health is more than just a beautiful smile. Studies show that the condition of your oral health is closely related to the health of your body as a whole. Untreated oral disease and poor oral health can have an impact on your quality of life and is linked to systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, and diabetes.

Dental radiographs, or X-rays, are an important part of a thorough dental examination. Among many things, xrays can expose hidden tooth decay, reveal a tooth abscess, cyst or tumor, show impacted or extra teeth, and also reveal bone loss from periodontal gum disease. A digital x-ray allows us to take an image of the tooth or teeth that almost instantaneously transfers to a computer screen.
It is important for kids to become comfortable with the dentist and learn how to take care of their teeth at a young age. That is why we encourage parents to bring their children to visit us by their first birthday. By doing this, we can examine their teeth, teach proper diet and oral hygiene, as well as diagnose any problems at an early stage.
We reserve your appointment time exclusively for you and only book one patient at a time, so that you receive our undivided attention during your scheduled appointment. Therefore, we ask that you give us at least two business days' notice if you are unable to make your appointment. This allows us to offer the appointment time to another patient.

Dr. Kaila is an amazing dentist. She’s knowledgeable, kind and very personable. I really enjoyed having her as my dentist and felt she was one of the best dentists that I’ve ever had.
On the other hand, the front office staff is terrible. Petty, inflexible, and insensitive to the busy lives of patients.
Much happier with finding a larger dental practice that can better understand that life’s schedule can be unpredictable, and with a greater number of dentists and patients, can better serve those with busy lives.
Grateful for the experience of being a patient of Dr. Kaila. She’s excellent

My family & I have been going here for a couple of years now and I just love them! The entire staff is warm and friendly. They were absolutely FANTASTIC with my 3 year old! They were kind and patient and let her ask as many questions as she wanted and even let her look at and touch the tools they were using. I wouldn't take my business anywhere else!

Some people believe they are always right and everyone else is the problem. This dentist obviously is one of them. I will never go here again. She was writing everything off as a lost cause right in front of my child by the time I was walking back into the room from using the restroom. She was rude to my child and had zero patience. She never tried to gain my child's trust. And yes, she blamed me for everything. The rest of the staff was polite but I will never recommend this dentist. She acted like putting my child under anesthesia for the rest of the work has a lot of risks so I thought she was

He seems like a great dentist , but the way he spoke to his assistant while he was taking x-rays on me was unacceptable. He made her feel like crap I could see that in her eyes. hope she eventually moves on and stop working for someone that don't appreciate her hard work. I am glad I am moving away and don't have to go back to this place

I had previously been taking my kids to a specialist pediatric dentist. I have no idea why. The people at that pediatric dentist were rude, appointments had to be made months in advance, and you always waited at least an hour to actually see anyone.
The professionals at 5th Avenue Dental were wonderful with my child: kind, gentle, great at explaining things. They even sent me a hand written thank you note afterwards! That's customer service. I highly recommend 5th Ave Dental.
