Your Dental Health Starts Here

A comprehensive dental exam is more than just a routine check-up — it’s the first step in truly understanding your oral health. At Cara Dentistry, we take the time to evaluate every part of your smile, including your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw, along with your dental and medical history.
To give us the most accurate picture, we use advanced technology like digital X-rays and 3D scans, helping us detect issues that can’t be seen with the naked eye.
During this visit, we also take the opportunity to educate and empower you — because understanding your oral health is the first step toward protecting your overall health. After all, your mouth is the gateway to your body. Based on what we find, we create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals- — because your care should be as unique as your smile.

Pediatric Dentistry

Children’s dental care isn’t just important — it’s essential. Kids who grow up feeling comfortable at the dentist are more likely to enjoy strong, healthy teeth for life. At Cara Dentistry, we make every visit fun, gentle, and full of encouragement.
It all begins with a ride in the magic chair — and maybe even a little photo shoot! Your child can sit in your lap as we take pictures to track their dental development. We introduce dental care at your child’s pace, helping them build confidence and healthy habits that last well into adulthood.
We go the extra mile to make children of all ages feel safe, heard, and happy — starting with understanding their feelings and earning their trust from the moment they walk through our doors. The result? Smiling kids, relieved parents, and a foundation for lifelong oral health.

Prophylaxis (Teeth Cleaning)

At Cara Dentistry, we understand life gets busy — it’s easy to put off your regular dental check-up and cleaning. But staying on top of these visits just twice a year is one of the smartest ways to protect your smile. Routine care helps prevent bigger problems down the road — saving you time, money, and unnecessary discomfort. Your future smile will thank you!

Perio Protect Trays

Gums deserve some TLC. This treatment can prevent the spread of gum disease and heal gingivitis in its early stages.

Protective Dental Fillings

Whether you've chipped a tooth during a meal, are feeling discomfort from a cavity, or have an old filling that’s broken, treating it promptly can prevent further issues. We make the process simple and stress-free by restoring your tooth’s shape and function and protecting it from future damage. With today’s durable tooth-colored materials, your filling will look and feel completely natural and can last 5 to 10 years.

Root Canal Therapy

Sometimes a tooth looks okay on the outside, but the interior pulp becomes infected. In these cases, a root canal is needed to remove the infection and stop the pain you’re experiencing by preserving the tooth structure.

Extraction

When a tooth is too damaged, we remove it to maintain the overall health of your mouth and body. Tooth replacements, like bridges and implants, are options we can explore together.

Gum Disease Treatment

Gum disease (Periodontal disease) is an infection of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth, typically caused by plaque buildup. Treatments vary depending on the severity of the disease, and we can support you with a regimen that fits your needs.
