General Dentistry
Maintaining good oral health starts with regular check-ups and preventive care. Our general dentistry services help ensure your teeth and gums remain healthy and any potential issues are caught early.
Comprehensive Exams
Routine dental exams are the cornerstone of good oral health. Our exams include a thorough evaluation of your teeth, gums, and jaw, as well as oral cancer screenings and digital X-rays.
Dental Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Our hygienists use gentle techniques to remove plaque and tartar, leaving your teeth feeling fresh and clean.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Early detection of oral cancer can save lives. During every routine visit, we screen for any signs of oral cancer, helping to catch potential problems before they progress.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Enhance your smile with our range of cosmetic treatments designed to improve the appearance of your teeth. Whether you’re looking for a quick whitening treatment or a full smile makeover, we have options that can help.
- Zoom!® Teeth Whitening: Achieve a brighter, whiter smile in just one visit with our in-office Zoom!® whitening system. This fast, effective treatment is perfect for anyone looking to enhance their smile quickly.

Veneers: Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They can be used to correct discoloration, chips, gaps, or misaligned teeth for a flawless smile.
-
Invisalign®: Invisalign® clear aligners are a virtually invisible way to straighten teeth. This orthodontic treatment is ideal for adults and teens who want to achieve a straighter smile without the hassle of traditional braces.
Restorative Dentistry
It’s great news that the incidents of tooth decay have significantly diminished over the years due to the use of fluorides and an increase in patient awareness. However, teeth are still susceptible to decay, infection, and breakage and sometimes need to be restored back to health. Through improved techniques and modern technology, we are now able to offer more options for restoring a tooth back to its normal shape, appearance, and function.
We offer composite fillings, veneers, crowns, bridges, and implant crowns. Should your teeth ever require a restorative treatment, you can rest assured that we will always discuss the available options and recommend the most comfortable and least invasive treatment. Providing you with excellent care is our No. 1 priority when creating your beautiful smile.
Composite Fillings
Composite fillings are an effective solution for small cavities or minor tooth damage. These tooth-colored fillings blend in with your natural teeth, making them nearly invisible.
Crowns
Crowns are custom-made caps that cover damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their strength and appearance. We use high-quality materials to create durable and natural-looking crowns.
Bridges
A dental bridge replaces missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth or implants. Our bridges restore your ability to chew and speak properly while maintaining the natural contours of your face.
Implant Restorations
Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement. Once the implant is placed, we create a custom crown to restore the missing tooth, ensuring a seamless blend with your natural teeth.
Periodontal (Gum) Therapy
Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. Our periodontal therapies are designed to treat gum disease and restore the health of your gums, preventing further damage.
- Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy
For patients with early-stage gum disease, we offer non-surgical treatments such as scaling and root planing to clean the deep pockets around the teeth and promote healing.
Oral Surgery & Extractions
Sometimes, tooth removal is necessary to protect your overall oral health. We offer gentle and comfortable tooth extractions, including wisdom teeth consultations and removal.
-
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth can cause overcrowding, pain, and infection if they are not removed. Our dentists will evaluate your wisdom teeth and determine if extraction is necessary. Some cases may require a referral to an oral surgeon. -
Tooth Extractions
Whether due to decay, trauma, or orthodontic reasons, our dentists perform tooth extractions in a comfortable and pain-free manner using local anesthesia and sedation options.
Sedation Dentistry
We understand that many patients experience anxiety about dental visits. That’s why we offer dental sedation to ensure your comfort during treatment.
-
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
This mild sedative helps you feel calm and relaxed during your treatment, and its effects wear off quickly, so you can resume your normal activities after your visit.
Advanced Technology
At Mallard Creek Family Dentistry, we use the latest dental technology to provide the best possible care for our patients.
-
Digital X-Rays
Our digital X-rays use up to 95% less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them safer and more convenient for patients. The images are available instantly and can be easily viewed on a monitor during your appointment. -
Intra-Oral Camera
Our intra-oral camera allows you to see what the dentist sees. This tiny camera captures detailed images of your mouth, helping you better understand your treatment needs.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
If you suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, we offer custom-fitted oral appliances as an alternative to CPAP therapy. These comfortable devices help keep your airway open during sleep, reducing snoring and improving the quality of your rest.
