Preventative Dentistry

More Than Just a Cleaning
It is our goal to preserve your teeth in a state of health, comfort, proper function, and beauty. We do this by identifying any problems and treating them quickly to help maintain not only the health of your teeth and gums but also your overall health.

We offer dental sealants to protect your teeth. Fluoride treatment is available for children as well as adults.

Our office uses DIAGNOdent, a laser that aids in the detection of caries—tooth decay that can lead to cavities. Early detection helps protect and preserve as much of the tooth as possible to maintain a healthy, beautiful smile.

Children's Dentistry

Special Care for Special Kids!

We Treat Kids with Kid Gloves

At Howell Dental Associates, we know how to put children and their parents at ease. We introduce children to dentistry in a friendly, comfortable atmosphere to prepare them for a lifetime of good dental health. Here, kids will find their own play area and we will encourage them to relax and enjoy their visits.

No Cavities Club

For Children
When children do not have any tooth decay, we will take their photo and place it on our "No Cavities Club" board.

Relaxation Dentistry

We care for our fearful patients
Imagine relaxing at the dentist, not being afraid, and accomplishing all your dental care in as little as one appointment. With Relaxation Dentistry (Sedation Dentistry), you'll be able to smile with confidence and chew food without pain. Dr. Lewis has been practicing conscious sedation for 35 years. If you've been putting off years of dental work, relaxation dentistry can change your life.

Crowns and Bridges

Crowns, also called caps, are used to beautify, repair and strengthen teeth. When crowns are connected, they can "bridge" the gaps between missing teeth to create natural-looking, beautiful smiles. In the past, the substance of choice for many crowns was gold. While gold was good at the time, but the rush is now to the tough-as-nails porcelain used by Dr. Lewis.

Dentures

Full Dentures, Duplicates, and Precision Partial Dentures
Dentures can now be so secure and natural-looking that only you and your dentist will know you wear them. Our office offers full dentures and duplicates and precision partial dentures.

Periodontal Treatment (Non-Surgical)

Dr. Lewis practices non-surgical periodontal treatment to maintain your periodontal health in the least invasive manner possible. Our practice uses Arestin, an antibiotic that easily and effectively kills the germs that cause periodontal disease.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Change your life with affordable cosmetic dentistry. Enjoy compliments on your beautiful, natural-looking smile and take pleasure in eating and speaking comfortably.

Zoom! 1-Hour Whitening

There's no better way to get the smile of your dreams than at Howell Dental Associates. As seen on Extreme Makeovers, Zoom! is America's #1 in-office whitening system. With Zoom!, our office can whiten your smile in about an hour. Take-home kits and touch-up pens are also available at our office.

Lumineers

Porcelain Veneers by Cerinate

Lumineers are porcelain veneers that can be placed with no shots, drilling or removal of any sensitive tooth structure. Lumineers can restore your smile and preserve your natural teeth, all with a pain-free procedure. Dr. Lewis is a Certified Lumineers Provider. Only a select few dental practices are certified by Cerinate as official providers.

Composite Restorations

Our natural, tooth-colored composite fillings match the color of your existing teeth making them undetectable. Only you will know that you have fillings. Plus, the composite material is mercury-free unlike older fillings.

Crowns and Bridges

Crowns, also called caps, when connected can "bridge" the gaps between missing teeth to create natural-looking, beautiful smiles.

Dental Implants

Implants can be used to replace a single missing tooth or to rehabilitate a full mouth of missing teeth. Ds. Lewis can facilitate the implant process by providing you with reliable, permanent implant restorations.
