Preventive care for a healthy smile

There are no secrets to keeping your teeth healthy for life — just a series of simple preventive steps.

At Tom Boyd, DDS, you will receive the most thorough dental exam possible. Our goal is to spot small problems before they grow. We make maintenance and prevention easy with our ultrasonic cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants and advanced surgical and nonsurgical procedures for damaged gums.

Making your fears disappear

Childhood memories can at times be difficult to erase. We do everything possible to give you and your family truly gentle care so dentistry can be an enjoyable part of life. This starts with our attitude — that dentistry is fun and pain is not acceptable. Our experienced and steady hands, accompanied by nitrous oxide, electronic anesthesia and drill-less dentistry when appropriate, have made even the most fearful patients calm and comfy.
