- Dental ExaminationWhen was the last time you visited a dentist for a full dental exam? If it’s been too long, but you’re afraid or embarrassed for whatever reason, then it’s time to rethink the importance of your oral health and the impact it has on your overall health. Undetected dental issues can turn into serious health problems that can end up costing more time, money, and stress.
- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningYour overall health depends on your oral health, which is why exams and oral cancer screenings at the dentist are such a big deal.
- Teeth Cleaning
- FillingsDental amalgam fillings have been used for years to fill cavities – a mixture of liquid (elemental) mercury with a powdered alloy of silver, tin, and copper. We offer metal-free fillings that are discreet and effectively fill cavities just as well as metal fillings.
- Resin CompositeWe apply the composite resin to the tooth, smooth it, harden by light, and polish the area. Once finished, our dentist checks the bite and your comfort level. Any slight sensitivity will soon subside. Be sure to maintain good hygiene at home and visit your dentist regularly.
- VeneersFind a doctor that does not cut corners and has integrity for smile perfection. The formation of veneers and ceramic materials is done in the laboratory. Your dentist’s choice in first-rate materials and equipment is key. It is important that you recognize a sense of integrity and perfectionism from your cosmetic dentist because this mindset will carry through all aspects of your smile creation.
- CrownsA crown is recommended for a fractured, cracked tooth or a large filling replacement. A bridge is recommended if you entirely lose one or multiple teeth, creating a gap in your smile. Getting a crown or bridge is a simple process.
- BridgesBridges are a fixed or non-removable prosthesis constructed to replace one or more missing teeth. The teeth on either side of the existing space anchor the bridge. We are now able to construct beautiful full porcelain bridges and porcelain over metal bridges to produce beautiful aesthetic results.
- Dental BondingDental Bonding By directly applying a composite tooth-colored resin material to the teeth and hardening it with a high-intensity light, Dr. McNeill can address a variety of smile concerns. Bonding is a one-appointment procedure that is used for a variety of smile issues, ranging from repairing chipped and broken teeth to closing gaps, covering discoloration, and even lengthening the teeth.
- Restorative Dentistry
- Root Canal TreatmentDo you have a severely infected and sore tooth that requires a root canal but afraid of surgery? Many years ago, root canals may have been painful, but with today’s anesthetics and improved treatment methods, patients feel comfortable during and after the quick procedure.

- Oral Surgery
- Tooth ExtractionsTooth Extractions Extractions are needed when a tooth cannot be saved from a root canal or the smile needs to be prepared for future treatment (orthodontics, dental implants, etc.). At Smile Artistry, your comfort is our utmost priority and we can perform the extraction right in our office instead of sending you to another office. This ensures you see the same face from start to finish.
- OrthodonticsPatients who wish to restore or enhance the beauty of their smile quickly and easily will appreciate the sudden, dramatic improvement offered by porcelain veneers. Also known as “Instant Orthodontics,” porcelain laminate veneers are a “shell covering” placed over the teeth to enhance or correct their appearance. They can close a space between teeth, restore traumatized teeth, repair worn teeth, increase the size, replace deteriorating restorations, conceal badly stained teeth, and straighten misaligned teeth. Hence, “instant” orthodontics – in as few as two visits, you can have the beautiful smile you have always wanted.
