You can definitely whiten you teeth at home. There are great products OTC to do so. At the dental office we specialize in 1 hour treatments, precise whitening, and bleaching trays. We offer these at the office because they are not OTC and if you start to feel sensitivity, we have the proper tools to care for you. READ MORE

Can dental implants cause neck pain?
They shouldn't cause neck pain. You should definitely let your oral surgeon know that you are having neck pain after implants. READ MORE
How much radiation do you get from dental x-rays?
For a full set of intra oral series you will absorb less radiation than a flight from Fairbanks Alaska to Seattle Washington. READ MORE
How long will my teeth hurt after Invisalign is put on?
Thank you for reaching out with your question. We work closely with our Orthodontic team at Dr. Wentz's office and Dr. Woller's Office. Typically discomfort with Invisalign aligners lasts for a few days once a new aligner is put in. Since patients wear a new Invisalign aligner every two weeks, you can expect some degree of temporary discomfort occurring every two weeks. READ MORE
