Dr. Steve Gwaltney, Dr. J. Ryland Gwaltney, and Dr. Whitney Gwaltney have years of experience in treating patients with a range of oral health needs and concerns. As a family of dentists, Drs. Gwaltney knows how important it is for all members of the family to get the dental care they need. Because of this, we offer family dentistry and pediatric dental care. Parents and their children can often arrange for both to receive treatment on the same day at our Suffolk dentist office.
Our dentists understand that visiting the dentist for the first time can sometimes be a stressful experience for younger patients. Because of this, we take care to create a warm and comfortable environment for patients of all ages. We also work with parents so that they can know how to best care for their growing childs teeth and gums. As children grow older, our team also helps educate them about how to care for their own oral health.
Our office incorporated advanced dental technology to improve your patient experience and the integrity of your results. We provide a variety of popular and modern dental solutions in our Suffolk, VA dentist office:
As a versatile restorative dental option, dental implants provide stability by replacing missing teeth. Dental implants can be used to restore single missing teeth or even full rows of lost teeth. Dentures and dental bridges that are secured with dental implants last longer than traditional methods and require less maintenance.
Invisalign clear aligners straighten crooked and misaligned teeth quickly and comfortably. Patients with moderate orthodontic concerns can realign their smiles without dietary restrictions. When compared to traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners do not irritate the gums and provide more customized care.
We provide Zoom! in-office teeth whitening to help our patients brighten their smiles. During treatment, we apply Zoom! whitening gel to the teeth and then activate it with UV light. In just one hour, our patients can whiten their teeth by multiple shades. Teeth whitening is also a great option for patients who are attending special events such as birthdays, weddings, and graduations.
Please call our office for emergency dental treatment. Our dentists can provide treatment for toothaches, lost teeth, broken restorations, and dental trauma. We can schedule care as soon as possible for cosmetic or restorative solutions.
Yes. We accept most major credit cards and many types of dental insurance. Our team will process your insurance claim upon receipt of your co-payment. We also accept Care Credit, a popular card that helps finance dental treatments.
