We never double book and schedule quality time blocks for each patient which means your 11:00am appointment starts at 11:00am and not thirty minutes later.

You may even flip through a magazine and found yourself longing for a model or movie star's smile. Thankfully, you don't have to live with discolored or dingy colored teeth. If you would like a whiter, brighter smile, talk to your dentist about teeth whitening. Your teeth may become discolored for a variety of reasons. Chemicals in tobacco, coffee, tea, and red wine can change the color of your teeth when you enjoy these products regularly.

While it has not been proven scientifically that mercury can harm you, we have chosen to not use silver amalgam/mercury fillings, as the technology involved with them is well over 100 years old. There are also several drawbacks to them, which can cause trouble for teeth with silver fillings. Thankfully, we offer tooth-colored fillings, a way to restore teeth without compromising their beauty.

Also called porcelain crowns, these play an important role in both restorative and cosmetic dentistry treatments. Although a filling can restore a small defect in a tooth, a crown is the most durable and strongest way to restore any tooth with extensive damage, for the long term. With all the materials and techniques modern dentistry has to offer, your crown from Dr. Olson will be totally natural looking and completely comfortable.
