Some of the procedures he performs are dental implants, composite and amalgam restorations, crowns, bridges, dentures, root canal therapy, extractions, grafting, whitening, nitrous oxide sedation, and periodontal procedures. His philosophy is to help patients reduce travel by performing as many procedures in his office as possible. However, in certain situations he prefers to work with trusted specialists to accomplish patient comfort and to expedite complex patient treatment plans.
Dr. Hopkins loves practicing dentistry in the age of such great technological advances! Dr. has several instruments that help him provide excellent dental care including digital charting, digital x-rays and cameras, the newest Emerald E4D crown making laser scanning and milling system, an iCat 3D cone beam CT scanner, and a CAO Precise LTM soft tissue laser. The new building has allowed for patients to feel more comfortable and have reduced chair time by adding new dental chairs, lighting, andefficient assistant delivery systems.
