CEREC CAD/CAM is the epitome of Modern Dentistry. It means that in just 2 hours you can have a crown! There are no temporaries and no need for a second visit. It's a precise fit. CEREC CAD/CAM is less invasive and delivers durable, natural looking crowns in a snap.
Electronic Dental Records are an integrated part of our practice management system. Our paperless system delivers electronic charting, digital imaging and enhanced case presentation where it is needed most... at chair side.
Digital X-rays offer a huge advantage in early detection and preventive services. Advanced image manipulation and analysis, for example, allows your doctor to detect early stages of gum disease through recognition of bone level changes, or by evaluating the results against a previous treatment.
An intraoral camera is an indispensable diagnostic and educational tool. The tiny video camera moves around inside of your mouth and generates a tooth by tooth video exam of your teeth. Using an intraoral camera allows patients to better understand their dental needs by seeing what the dentist sees and then having it explained.
Lasers are a non-surgical approach to arresting the progression of periodontal disease. Following scaling and root planing, a laser is used to significantly reduce the bacterial colonies and decontaminate the infected periodontal pocket. Lasers also remove the infected tissue lining the periodontal pocket. As the infected tissue is removed, microscopic blood clots form and your body's natural healing response takes over. As you heal, the tissue reattaches to the bone and your gums return to a healthy infection-free state.
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is an advanced, proven technology that provides more precise three-dimensional (3D) imaging for more accurate diagnosis and treatment of oral health conditions. 3D dental X-rays can uncover issues that may not be detectable with 2D X-rays. By making images easier to see, its helpful in gaining a better understanding of oral health conditions and suggested treatment.

I made an emergency dental appointment to get my teeth pulled. They called to confirm the appointment and the next day they called again to tell me that they don't take my insurance. I call them back to cancel the appointment. They keep calling me ABOUT the appointment and asking if I have another insurance provider. This is quite annoying.

They took the time to take care of a cavity and a crown so I didn't have to make another trip!

Dr. Faulk and his cohort are liars and deceivers. He is incompetent and she and the staff covers for his ineptness. I'm still having difficulties with a bridge that was fabricated to fit the opposite side of my mouth. They had to file so much to make it fit and still has a HUGE gap between my bridge and my gums that food gets caught everytime I eat. When I went to him to ask him to fix it he refused. Offered me 500.00 to get rid of me. It cost 3500.00 for the procedure. They don't guarentee their work and lawyers will not take on a case unless it has affected your physical health. Mental and emotional doesn't count. So if you go there just don't let Dr. Faulk touch you. Don't let his first impression fool you. He was so nice and made me feel so comfortable until I told him I needed him to fix it. Then he turned UGLY... VERY UGLY.. He's a GASLIGHTER.... VERY UGLY...

The Dentist here doesn't do root canals, extractions, or implants. Someone comes in once or twice a month to do some oral surgery and periodontal. Can't figure out what the owning dentist does all day. Certainly don't go here for an emergency. This Dentist does no emergency procedures at all.

I recently gave a review on this office that was in error. I read the billing incorrectly and in fact owe nothing. I apologize and certainly will continue to use this office as my dentist. The information from my insurance was difficult to read.

This place told me I had a cavity that needed to be filled same day. The offered me all kinds of payment plans and credit to get it done. I refused because I didn't have the money, or good credit and the last thing I needed was to have another debt against my name. Lo and behold, when I did get in to see a different dentist I HAVE NO CAVITIES. I almost had my tooth drilled because this place wanted to make some money. There was nothing wrong with my teeth. THEY LIED. Beware. Have them show you. Do your research. Get a second opinion. Never thought I'd have to treat my teeth like I do my car when I take it to the mechanic.

Really annoyed with this place today. They canceled my oral surgeon appointment because supposedly he was exposed to "Covid19". "Safety" is more important than health these days with 98% survival rate Covid19 is less dangerous than the flu.

Felt like a very personal visit. Haven't been dentist for years. Somewhat embarrassed; nervous. Dr. Wadwa came out to get me himself. We had a talk that made me feel at home; comfortable. All the staff showed patience; sincere care to me. Everything was explained; I was given good information to make a plan for my dental healthcare. Excellent modern equipment. The Dr. knew my health history. It's a pleasant environment with happy people being kind to me; each other. Sweet spirits there. So glad I went in.

From the front desk to the oral surgeon this staff is absolutely amazing! Special shoutout to Tyler at the front desk, and Jennifer who took my xrays. I had excruciating tooth/mouth pain for about 2 weeks and they were able to get me in the same week. I saw Dr. Wadwha and he was very nice and extremely thorough, he informed me that I would need to have a tooth surgically removed as it had broken and it would be wise to take the wisdom tooth next to it out at the same time. I was then scheduled for the following week with Dr. Moorhouse and had asked them if we could do all of the wisdom teeth at once, they said of course no problem. This was my first surgery and I the absolutely terrified but it went very good and 5 days later I feel amazing. I felt very comfortable in their care as the dentist is always a very nerve wracking situation for me. They did an amazing job and all during the pandemic. I am so happy to have them as my dentist office and more than willing to make the hour drive to see them! Thank you everyone at Sierra Smiles!
