Modern dentistry offers more options than ever to help you restore and maintain an optimal level of health. While the strength and beauty of materials continue to advance, the skill of the practitioner makes a significant difference in every outcome. We focus on utilizing the best techniques for comprehensive care, returning even the most damaged mouths to full health.
Sometimes teeth undergo significant damage due to cavities, substantial bite forces, trauma, or just normal functioning. If a root canal is needed to salvage a severely compromised nerve, the tooth may be especially fragile. Many situations leave teeth in danger of loss without restorative care. Dental crowns, or caps, allow these teeth to be rebuilt and covered with materials that mimic nature. Not only are most capped teeth indistinguishable from natural teeth, but theyre also unyielding and comfortable.
Crowns can be crafted to repair a single tooth, multiple teeth (including the entire mouth), or in conjunction with dental implants to fill a space. In fact, when missing teeth enter the equation, special consideration might be given to placing a dental bridge or implants.
When it's time to replace missing teeth, whether it's one or a full set, several options might be available to you. Dental implants often give you the best opportunity to enjoy normal chewing and a full smile.We provide a long-lasting choice, that is as close to growing new teeth as possible. Expertly placed in the same bone that once supported teeth, you'll enjoy a natural feeling of strength and function. Using modern porcelains we produce life-like results that may leave you completely unaware that they aren't your natural teeth.
We know it's not always easy for you to sort through the complicated possibilities. Our background in restorative dentistry allows us to develop solutions for every scenario.We look forward to discussing how we can partner together for the best solution for you!
Dental emergencies can strike anyone, but our patients who commit to regular dental care visits present with significantly fewer problems over time. Professional dental exams at our practice allow us to bring a blend of proactive efforts to you.
When you visit our practice we review many aspects of your health before we clean your tooth surfaces. Things like broken teeth, sensitivity or bleeding gums could all be the beginnings of bigger problems down the road. Once we have finished your exam and your teeth are free of tarter deposits, we use professional-strength polishing paste that gently buffs away stain and microscopic plaque. This helps slow yellowing while maintaining a glassy surface for easier home cleaning.
And of course, regular dental visits prove vital in fixing and preventing decay and gum disease as you keep up your daily home teeth cleaning habits. With a proactive approach, together we can prevent minor issues from becoming major procedures.

Modern Dentistry is much less anxiety producing than it was back in the early part of my life in the 1950's & 60's. Crystal Dental makes it a good experience every time I go, and this time was no different. I suggest you try them out.

Dr. Cho and his staff are wonderful. In the past, I had the worst experience with previous dentists and their lack of bed side manners. This has caused me to really fear dentists and the pain during and after visits. I have less anxiety now because Dr. Cho and his dental assistant are attentive and so caring. My sons and I have nothing but positive experiences each time we visit. I highly recommend Dr. Cho!

I absolutely love Dr. Cho and his awesome staff. I haven't had a dentist that I have felt comfortable with and confident in in a few decades. And I have seen many dentists in that time. I highly recommend their office!

I was waiting to have a couple visits before reviewing. I've had a couple cleanings and a crown at Crystal Dental and I can say all my visits went very well. Dr. Cho explained the procedures and caught a few issues from my regular X-rays that an endodontist confirmed with a 3D scan. I'd highly recommend Dr Cho and the Crystal Dental team for dental care.

Dr. Cho did a great job. He also spent extra time explaining a lot of things, and showed me how to properly do teeth flossing. The staff members there are all very polite. Great experience overall.

Exceeded my expectations. Was really impressed by this place and Dr. Cho. He provided a level of detail I've not received from any other dentist before. He's all about informed decision making and goes the extra mile to make sure you have the info and understanding you need. Not pushy at all. Really down to Earth. I would highly recommend him to anyone else.

One of the BEST dental experiences! Dr. Cho was great! He explained everything he was doing, what I should be doing at home and why. He even went over other services I could do in the future but he was never pushy about it. I'm so glad to find such a great dentist so close to home!

I took my elderly mother to see dr. Chou. He was thorough and helpful and explained several courses of action. With hisnadvice we were able to choose an appropriate plan for mom. All new patient forms are online and easy to fill out. Bridget and Rammy, receptionist and hygienist respectively, were also helpful and kind. During the pandemic, checkin happens by phone while we .waited in our car. Their protocol to protect themselves and patients and guests were not wanting. We are glad we.came to Dr. Chou.
