- X-rays
- Teeth CleaningIf you are seeking a dental cleaning or another dental treatment for yourself or your child, then Dr. Whatley and our Alabama Family Dental team may be able to surprise you with some of the options available to you.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeIf you have a decayed tooth that needs to be restored, our cosmetic tooth-colored fillings in Mobile, AL, and the Semmes, West Mobile, and Theodore, AL, areas are a natural-looking solution. A filling is a common procedure, but Dr. Whatley uses a resin composite material instead of the traditional metal type. Any surface area where a filling can be noticed is a great location for tooth-colored fillings because we perfectly match the resin composite to the color of your existing teeth.
- VeneersDentists urge those with veneers to practice proper daily brushing with a non-abrasive toothpaste. In addition, you should floss as you would with regular teeth. Although veneers are highly stain-resistant, Dr. Whatley recommends that you limit your intake of coffee, tea, wine, and other stain-inducing foods. With the proper care, veneers can last up to 10 years before needing to be replaced.
- CrownsOur experienced dental team is proud to offer a wide variety of services, including dental crowns in Mobile, AL, and the Semmes, West Mobile, and Theodore, AL, areas. Restoration dentistry is generally used to improve the health of your teeth, but it can also improve their appearance in notable ways.
- BridgesA bridge also prevents your remaining teeth from moving out of position, which can cause other unwanted dental problems. In addition, a dental bridge will enhance your ability to speak and chew normally. If you have a missing tooth, Dr. Whatley can replace the gap with a dental bridge.
- Dental Bonding
- Restorative Dentistry
- Root Canal TreatmentModern dentistry has come a long way in terms of root canals. If you are concerned about the pain associated with a root canal, rest assured that Dr. Whatley can ensure that your root canal in Mobile, AL, and the Semmes, West Mobile, and Theodore, AL, areas is entirely painless. We also offer relaxation options if you feel nervous prior to your procedure, and we help minimize any discomfort after you return home, too. At our office, your comfort is our priority!
- Deep CleaningScaling and root planing are often referred to as deep cleaning, and they can be performed using both ultrasonic instruments and hard instruments. After your root planing and scaling procedure, we may also prescribe medication to help treat any infection.
- DenturesIf you’ve lost all or some of your natural teeth, whether from gum disease or tooth decay, dentures can restore your smile. With the advancements in modern dentistry, dentures can even be made to closely resemble your natural teeth, so there’s minimal change to your appearance.
- Dental ImplantsIf you need to replace any of your teeth, our dental implants in Mobile, AL, and the Semmes, West Mobile, and Theodore, AL, areas are a great option. At Alabama Family Dental, Dr. Whatley can use dental implants to replace all your teeth or fill in the gaps of just a few missing teeth. Thanks to today’s advanced technology, getting dental implants is a pain-free procedure with minimal discomfort during recovery.
- Oral SurgeryIn certain cases, Dr. Whatley may recommend oral surgery in Mobile, AL, and the Semmes, West Mobile, and Theodore, AL, areas.

Along with our expert team, Dr. Whatley can help you with a variety of cosmetic or reconstructive dental needs.
