A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions. Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.
A comprehensive dental exam will be performed by your dentist at your initial dental visit. Examination of diagnostic x-rays (radiographs): Essential for detection of decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss. X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions. Oral cancer screening: Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.

Professional; the whole office works well together and communicates noticeably. They listen to my concerns and don't make me feel self conscious. Feel comfortable coming to them with complicated things and cavities. Excellent.

Brought my 22 month old daughter here for her first dental check-up. Dr. Shawn Hedlund was great and I'd recommend him to other friends with kids. Also the receptionist was very nice and quick with getting us on the schedule.

I love this dentist's office! Everyone is genuinely friendly and helpful. Going in for my first appointment, I was 4 months pregnant and everyone was excited to hear if I would be bringing the new baby to my next visit. No one acted as if they'd be bothered by having a baby in the office during my next cleaning at all. Also, were great about letting us do a payment plan to pay down our bill. Not to mention, the cost of the work that we had done after insurance paid on it was very reasonable. Big thumbs up to you guys!
