Services
Our initial appointment will consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. In certain circumstances, treatment can be done the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.
For a long time, dentists used amalgam as dental fillings. In recent years, it has been discovered that this black/silver substance is actually harmful to one's health and could lead to toxicity-related illnesses. There is no debate about the toxicity of mercury and an increasing number of European countries including Sweden, Germany and Austria, are banning or restricting the use of dental amalgam.
We sterilize all reusable equipment, including dental hand pieces. We use an autoclave, a device that kills bacteria and viruses by steam, heat and pressure. We also use Bottled water in our water syringes and hand pieces. Our entire team follows procedures recommended by several federal agencies: the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
The first visit to our office is designed to get you better acquainted with all we offer as well as introduce you to Dr. Karimian and our caring staff. We encourage questions and do our best to always deliver quality care. Please take a moment prior to your scheduled appointment to download our patient forms.

Everyone I came into contact with ( Toni, Receptionist; Jennifer, Hygienist; and Dr. Karimian) me was professional and kind. Everything was fully explained to me - I felt they were very thorough. I was apprehensive about finding a new dentist since I've moved, afraid of a 'hard sell', but fortunately, had none of that. I'm so pleased to have found an office that feels trustworthy and competent!

I am very happy with Jennifer (5 stars)
I am not happy that I was required to pay upfront before the insurance came in for my crowns. When the insurance came through and I was able to get a statement from the insurance, I discovered that I was over-charged by $25. I was charged for a $50 deductible, but it was calculated incorrectly and I was only charged an extra $25. I called about this and was told the information I had was not final. Then I got a bill for $25 to bring the deductible charge up to $50. I brought paperwork to the office at my appointment to show that my policy only requires me
