We provide a comfortable, family-like atmosphere and actively strive to insure that you are educated about your dental health. We understand that the majority of people don't enjoy going to the dentist but we would like the opportunity to show you that going to the dentist doesn't have to induce fear or cause stress. Our friendly staff uses computerized technology designed to help you better understand what needs addressing.

We never want you to blindly accept treatment or to have unanswered questions. To insure all patients are thoroughly educated, our office uses digital radiographes and an intra-oral camera. Dr. Porterfield performs dental hygiene cleanings for patients with and without periodontal disease.
