New technologies in dentistry.... We are excited to offer the use of lasers in dentistry at our office. Dr Cooley and his dental assisting team have had extensive training in the use of the laser allowing us to offer laser techniques including delivery of anesthesia without an injection in some cases, soft tissue recontouring (eliminating/reducing a "gummy smile"), certain types of periodontal treatments, and the ability to reduce the duration of fever blisters & ulcers!   

    Now available.... Durathin prepless veneers! The trend in dentistry today is to conserve as much tooth as possible while creating the most beautiful smile available. Dr. Cooley recently received training and certification in a new, advanced technique known as "prepless" veneers. This technique involves minimal or no tooth reduction yet allows Dr. Cooley to change the shape, size, and color of your existing smile. Dr. Cooley is one of the first dentists in the U.S. to be trained in this procedure! While not all cases will be candidates for prepless veneers, many are. Call our office today for a consultation.    

    Oral Cancer Screening Tools .... Our practice is thrilled to offer a state-of-the-art device called the VELscope Oral Cancer Screening System.  Along with our conventional oral screening exam, which includes looking inside your mouth for any lesions that might be visible to the naked eye and feeling your neck for any suspicious bumps, the VELscope allows us to see beneath the surface to detect potentially dangerous growths we might have otherwise missed. The VELscope exam takes about 2 minutes as part of a regular hygiene appointment, involves no pain or inconvenience, and is completely safe. We think you will find the additional cost for this exam to be very reasonable. We also believe you'll appreciate the peace of mind that this screening can provide.
