A Perfect Smile, Joan's Reconstructive Journey
A 68-year-old woman came to our office with broken teeth and a damaged veneer. She wanted her teeth to look longer, whiter, and prevent further chipping.
Under the expertise of Dr. Sweet, Peninsula Dental provides outstanding dental care built on trust, comfort, and precision
Our goal is to provide the best quality dental care available anywhere, and to deliver that carein an environment of exceptional service. We keep our office small, with dedicated and highly-trained staff, and state of the art equipment and materials.
We move patients from patchwork dentistry to optimal dental health along a path that is planned out according to clinical need and the patient’s dental wishes.
Happy Smiles
We believe the best dentistry is no dentistry, and educate and encourage patients to follow a healthy maintenance program of cleanings and check ups. This helps prevent gum disease and dental decay, and enables the early detection of bigger issues. Early detection means fewer emergency visits, less invasive procedures, and less time and money spent in the dental office.
We help patients obtain beautiful long-lasting smiles by ensuring underlying health and dental function are optimized.
