Weve equipped our modern, comfortable Lehigh Valley dental office with the latest technology to provide customized oral care thats completely customized to your individual concerns. From Spectra cavity detection to our CEREC crown milling unit, we utilize technology that increases patient comfort and enables precise, efficient dentistry. Dr. Salivonchik and our team continually improve our techniques and treatments through continuing education. Our dedication to your dental care experience sets us apart and makes us the Lehigh Valley dental office of choice for patients who desire quality, personalized oral care.
Great customer service is a term that is overused today. It means different things to different people. To some in dentistry, it means spa dentistry such as massages, paraffin waxes, and pedicures. It may even mean freshly baked cookies greeting you as you arrive for your dental procedure. Dr. Salivonchiks team interprets customer service as doing exactly what they say they are going to do and treating patients with the caring, honesty, and consistency with which they would like to be treated.
When you come to see us, we wont simply tell you which procedures you need to get and then pressure you to follow our advice. Instead, Dr. Salivonchik will clearly explain the current state of your oral health and go over all of the treatment options available to you in great detail. That way, YOU can make the final decision about your dental care and do so with complete confidence.
For many people, going to the dentist is a nerve-wracking and stressful experience, but it doesnt have to be this way! Our entire team wants you to feel welcome and comfortable from the moment you step through our doors. Even our most sensitive patients are able to fully relax thanks to our warm and friendly approach, and for those who need a little extra help, sedation dentistry is available as well. With us, you wont believe how easy it can be to take care of your teeth.
