Safeguard Your Oral Health

Restorative Fillings

When decay happens, it doesn’t have to steal your smile. Our tooth-colored composite fillings restore strength and appearance while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth. We use precise, conservative techniques to make treatment quick, effective, and as comfortable as possible, while preserving as much of your natural smile as possible.

Save Your Natural Tooth

Root Canal Treatment

A root canal offers fast relief from tooth pain caused by infection. When infection reaches the inside of a tooth, a root canal can relieve pain and save your tooth from extraction. Our skilled dentists offer advanced solutions for enhanced comfort and efficiency, often in one visit. With flexible hours and affordable root canal care, you don’t have to delay treatment.

We offer comprehensive cleanings and gum treatments to support long-term oral health.

Regular dental cleanings are essential to protect your smile before bigger issues arise.

Patient Testimonials

“Dr. Mei helped me soo much. I had two very badly infected teeth, and in my mind, efficiency is everything when performing a painful procedure. This office was able to get me in within a week of my first appointment, and then has been incredibly flexible with me about the services I've needed. The antibiotics were waiting for me at the pharmacy, and the first tooth was out within 40 minutes of my arrival at the appointment. I would recommend Dr. Mei and have personally done so with none of my friends already. My teeth are already on the mend, and I've been given everything I need to recover fully by this office. I am very thankful for the excellent work the entire office provided.”

“Dr. Mei Saelee is the most wonderfully talented and professional dentist I've ever had the pleasure of seeing! Friendly, warm atmosphere. Amazing staff who genuinely care. I had my teeth cleaned last week and have never felt more confident. Highly recommend.”
