At Palo Alto Dental Associates we take time to individualize treatment to ensure the most effective care. Our first priority is to listen and understand your needs and desires. We educate you about various treatment options to help you make the best choices. We use advanced imaging and computerized treatment planning techniques to make you a partner in your care.

Consultations:
We know how important it is for patients to feel comfortable when choosing a dentist and a dental team. That is why Palo Alto Dental Associates takes the time necessary to give you the personal attention you deserve. Our consultations provide you the opportunity to meet our staff, see the office, and discuss your individual needs and desires for a healthy, beautiful smile.

Cleaning:
Dental health begins with healthy gums. We customize treatment to ensure your specific periodontal (gums and bone) needs are met. Our highly trained hygienists provide the best treatment while making sure you are comfortable. Nonsurgical periodontal treatment is often possible.

Relaxation:
Your comfort is of the utmost importance. Palo Alto Dental Associates takes special care to make your dental experience a pleasant one. Nitrous oxide is available and you have a choice of listening to music or watching a movie while your teeth are being restored. We also have music CD's and television available. Palo Alto Dental Associates is also a Conscious Sedation provider. More

Diagnostic and Treatment Plans:
A thorough diagnosis and treatment plan will ensure success. We use x-rays, visual examination, digital cameras, models, comprehensive periodontal exams, cancer screenings, and esthetic evaluations to develop the proper diagnosis and treatment plans. Our Dentrix Dental Software clearly explains various treatment options. Our doctors strive to educate you and make you an active participant in the process.

Fillings:
The latest dental materials and techniques allow for beautiful, long-lasting fillings. Palo Alto Dental Associates uses composite and porcelain to restore teeth to their natural color and strength.

Crowns:
Teeth that have been fractured or chipped are susceptible to further damage. Crowns are used to restore both front and back teeth that have been broken or are at high risk of doing so. We use the latest materials to restore teeth to their natural strength, look, and feel.

Lumineers and Veneers:
Veneers are a thin covering of porcelain used to enhance the appearance and function of teeth. This is one of the most exciting and rewarding techniques in dentistry today. We are able to produce brilliant smiles by whitening teeth, closing spaces, and by straightening rotated teeth. You can achieve the smile of your dreams in two visits. More

Bridges:
A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth. Teeth on both sides of a space are used to anchor the bridge in order to restore function and esthetics. Our office uses only the best dental labs to produce beautiful, natural restorations.

Implants:
If you are missing one or more teeth, you may be a candidate for dental implants. Implants work by mimicking the structure of natural teeth. Like natural teeth, dental implants are secured in the jawbone. Successful dental implants become firmly embedded in the jaw, providing a chewing surface like that of natural teeth. Implants can replace one tooth or multiple teeth depending on the circumstance. Please ask our doctors about this exciting procedure. More

Whitening:
Teeth whitening is one of the easiest and most gratifying techniques available today. We treat our patients with in-office whitening and take-home kits depending on the current status of the teeth and desired outcome. The in-office procedure is safe and produces immediate results. More

Dentures:
When a patient has several missing teeth, or is missing teeth altogether, a complete or partial denture may be necessary. We take time to help patients gain back chewing function and healthy smiles. More
