Dove Dental Services offered
Braces
Often, braces are needed to correct dental issues. Dr. Dove has completed over 300 hours of orthodontic education in order to provide the best possible care to each patient that he evaluates and treats. Recommendations are presented and the patient and doctor together decide on an orthodontic treatment plan.
Braces are used to straighten teeth and also to provide a stable relationship between the upper and lower teeth. Additionally, retention is a significant portion of the treatment plan and one of the final steps of the treatment process.
Cleaning
The most important part of maintaining a healthy smile is routine dental cleanings and check-ups. We recommend patients receive a professional cleaning every 6 months. These cleanings/check-ups allow the doctor to verify that the gums are healthy and to find and fix small cavities before they become painful toothaches or result in further problems. Maintaining good oral hygiene can result in a cavity free check-up and a healthy smile.
Cone Beam CT Scan
A single scan produces a wide variety of views and angles that can be manipulated to provide a more complete evaluation. Cone beam CT scans provide more information that conventional dental x-ray, allowing for more precise treatment planning. CT scanning is painless, noninvasive and accurate. A major advantage of CT is its ability to image bone and soft tissue at the same time.
Implants
We will provide the restorative work of placing the post and adjusting the crown to fit the implant. Implants are necessary when a tooth is missing and the patient wants a single replacement crown in its place as long as the patient is a surgical candidate for placement of the post.
CROWNS AND BRIDGES
Dove Dental is proud to offer crowns and bridges. Bridges are somewhat of an extension of crowns in that two crowns are used to support a false tooth or teeth to accommodate a missing tooth or teeth. A bridge is essentially created to rectify a gap in the teeth.
SERVICES FOR CHILDREN
We begin treating children usually around the age of 3. This is to allow all of the baby teeth to erupt into the mouth and is also approximately when the child is able to understand and cooperate with adult directions. We can provide the full range of treatment from cleanings to fillings on children ages 3 and up. We additionally strive to provide a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for these youngsters as they embark on this new oral health experience.
VENEERS
A veneer is a cosmetic facing that is placed on the front of the tooth to give it a more pleasing esthetic appearance. This can be done in one appointment or two. The results are usually a little better with the two appointment procedure because a laboratory will fabricate the veneer to your exact desire and specifications.
WHITENING
As this is becoming a popular procedure with patients today, we utilize a home whitening process that is comfortable and predictable. Most important is that it can be used to maintain the shade that you are happy with.
ROOT CANALS
A root canal becomes a necessary procedure when the nerve or the pulp of the tooth is damaged, but the tooth is still intact enough to be saved. After removal of the root and pulp, the tooth is prepared for a permanent crown to save the outer portion of the tooth and retain placement, structure and alignment resulting in little disruption to the mouth.

Testimonials
"My experience at Dove Dental was wonderful! Dr. Megan is amazing!!! She’s very nice, professional, and thorough. She’s an awesome dentist! She made me feel comfortable and explained everything really well. The staff was also friendly and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Megan and Dove Dental."
"I highly recommend Dr. Dove at Dove Dental. Dr. Dove fixed my broken tooth on the spot with a filling rather than a root canal & crown that had been suggested was necessary by another dentist. I felt he was very honest and also extremely knowledgeable in dentistry. The entire staff was very nice and helpful with any questions I had. I had very bad experiences with other dentists and thought I would never go back to another dentist again; however, I will definitely be going back to Dove Dental for my dental needs."
