Services
The implant process takes about 3-6 months to fully heal. The first part of the process is the installation in which a screw is placed in the jaw bone and the implants are placed in the gums. During the healing period, the jaw bone will form around the implants. Temporary crowns may be installed so that you can eat and speak normally.
Veneers - a very thin ceramic shell that covers your existing tooth structure designed to fix staining, cracked teeth, spaces, misaligned teeth, chipped teeth and more. Whitening - Teeth whitening can restore the natural color of your teeth, or make them even whiter. We utilize a tray whitening system that first makes an impression of your teeth, then whitening gel is applied over a few days resulting in a smile that is 4-8 shades whiter!
Endodontics is the dental specialty dealing with the nerves of teeth and root canals are the most common endodontic procedure. They are a necessary part of your dental heath, not to mention modern dental technology makes them nearly painless! Root canals performed by endodontists generally have a 95% success rate, however there are some rare cases in which the tooth fails to heal.
Dr. Mehlhoff will take measurements and have dentures fitted for your mouth prior to teeth removal. Dentures are immediately placed in your mouth after the teeth have been removed so there is no period in which you are without teeth. However, you will need a follow up visit to refit your dentures because your jaw bone will slightly change shape as your mouth heals.
A sealant placed when the molars first come in will ensure they are protected early. The procedure starts when adhesive is first applied to the teeth. Next, the sealant is placed over the adhesive and is painted right on to the tooth. The liquid hardens and creates a barrier between the tooth and any plaque, food particles and bacteria.

Absolutely amazing place to have ALL of your dental and orthodontic needs taken care of. The staff here truly works as a TEAM to make their patients feel comfortable and cared for. I mostly see Dr.Thao because of my orthotics and she takes the time to develop a treatment plan that you can feel good about. Lucky to find such great people.
