Bonding is a process in which an enamel-like material is applied to a tooth`s surface, sculpted to an ideal shape, hardened, and then polished for an ideal smile.
Crowns and Bridges
When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Periodontal disease can be identified by inflammation of oral tissue, infections below the gums and the presence of disease-causing bacteria.
CEREC Crowns
Implants are anchored to the jawbone or metal framework on the bone and act as a foundation for an artificial tooth or permanent bridge.

Simple toothaches can often be relieved by rinsing the mouth to clear it of debris and other matter.

Often looked over, teeth grinding is a dangerous habit that could lead to an array of oral health issues.

Patient Reviews
NB: ¡Se habla español! I have been with Dr. Okada since she bought her practice from the previous dentist at this location. The office was very close to my house (walking distance) and that was part of my decision when I moved to this area in 1976. But I STAYED with Dr. O--even after retirement and losing my benefits, even after moving to a new community--because of her skill and also, her compassion. Who loves going to the dentist??? Right??? But everyone at this location is professional, friendly and very honest about treatment options and their cost as well as the patient's comfort level or anxiety. Medicare will cover cleanings and x-rays for me, but I'd rather pay out of pocket to the doctor who knows (and cares about) both my mouth and my financial situation. I had to cancel recently, (unusual) and the office personnel were tireless in trying to work me in before my rescheduled appointment (weeks away.) The health of my mouth is the most important aspect of my dental care, but it's no small thing to have to pay for it, and I'd like to mention that Dr. O has been in a successful practice for quite a bit, and so she is in a position to have purchased her own equipment and doesn't have to send out to labs for every crown or etc. This gives the dentist direct control over the quality as well as being able to obtain it quickly. Last and least important: the office is conveniently located where there is plenty of parking! read more
Doctor Okada and the team are just rockstars. She is very experienced and explain the rational behind her decisions. The treatments are always done with empathy and consideration to the patient well being during the treatment. Same goes to the team as well!! read more
You feel like the most important person in the office. The staff always greets me by name and I feel so special. Excellent customer service and professionalism! read more
Lorna and team are 100% professional, she always explains the options available and does great work. The entire staff enjoy working with each other and you can tell they are like family. Lorna now does crowns inhouse, this makes it so we don't have have a temp crown then come back a few days later for another visit to get our permanent one installed. If you have to go to the dentist you might as well have a good time with good people. read more
What can I say but Dr O and her staff are incredible. Friendly, professional, efficient and honest. Dr O explains things so thoroughly and will give you her honest assessment of the what and whys. I have had wonderful experiences since going to her last year. I'm happy I made the switch and even got my wife to go there as well. read more
Our family has been with Dr. Okada for over 20 years and there are many reasons why we have stayed - plus made recommendations to others who have been so happy to have found this gem of a dental office. Dr. Okada is amazing and her staff is always so friendly and helpful. Dr. Okada is always available to give thorough explanations, explain multiple options for treatment with the pros and cons of each, and provides great recommendations related to ortho too. She is really full service! She has referred out our kids for ortho, done my ortho treatment herself, and our son just got his wisdom teeth pulled in her office by a surgeon she contracts with. The office staff is also great about accommodating family appointments together and working with our busy schedules. Over the 20+ years that we've had 5 family members receiving service multiple times each year there was only one error with a booked appointment that the staff immediately found a way to resolve for us. You will not be disappointed trusting your dental health to Dr. Okada and her staff! read more
