Maintaining Healthy, Beautiful Smiles
for Your Entire Family

Benefits of Establishing a Family Dentist

By choosing Dr. Heathman, you can completely streamline your family's dental care.

Establishing a family dentist allows you to address several concerns which often prevent patients from properly maintaining their oral health. It is understandable that you may feel overwhelmed trying to meet the scheduling demands of different dentists. By allowing Dr. Heathman to provide treatment for your entire family, you can streamline your dental care for a much more convenient experience.

Becoming familiar with your family's medical and dental history can also help our team provide personalized treatments with maximum benefit. This information is especially useful caring for your children, as we can anticipate certain issues and plan preventive care accordingly. This can not only minimize the need for more extensive and costly procedures in the future, but it can improve your child's overall oral health as well. 

Comprehensive Care for All Ages

By offering a wide range of dental services, Dr. Heathman can care for the needs of our patients at every age. 

Pediatric Dentistry

We understand the unique needs of pediatric patients. We focus on:

• Creating an environment where kids feel comfortable and safe
• Building a positive relationship with the dentist and staff 
• Establishing an understanding of good oral hygiene habits
• Preventing cavities with fluoride treatments and sealants

You can feel confident that your child is in good hands as we approach every treatment with these priorities in mind.

Addressing the Needs of Teens

As your children become teens and young adults, their oral health concerns often shift. A primary focus may be improving their appearance through orthodontics or cosmetic enhancements. We can remove problematic wisdom teeth, collaborate with a trusted orthodontist to align your child's smile, or safely administer teeth whitening. 

Treating Age-Related Concerns

As patients grow older, they encounter new oral health concerns, such as tooth loss, dry mouth, and the accumulation of years' worth of stain-causing foods and drinks. Fortunately, Dr. Heathman is highly skilled in a variety of treatments, including root canal therapy, dental implant-supported restorations, and periodontal care. Maintaining a strong, healthy smile can allow our older patients to continue enjoying all their favorite foods and even minimize their risk of developing more serious health concerns, such as heart disease.

Emergency Dentistry

Dr. Heathman understands that a dental injury or sudden escalation of symptoms may require immediate treatment. In the case of an emergency, we always strive to fit you into our schedule the same day. If you require attention outside our regular business hours, your call will be forwarded directly to Dr. Heathman and will be handled accordingly. 

Managing Anxiety

It is not uncommon for patients to be fearful about undergoing certain dental procedures. To address these concerns, we offer nitrous oxide and oral medication. These methods may be used to simply manage anxiety or be recommended for patients with certain medical conditions.
