- Dental SealantsWhen we apply a dental sealant, we paint a plastic coating on top of your teeth. This makes your teeth smooth getting rid of the rough edges, depressions, and grooves that are commonly found on teeth. It is essentially a protective coating against tooth decay and cavities.

- CrownsGetting porcelain crowns is the best way to have a very natural looking smile. They are used when simply filling in a tooth is not an option. There are times when they decay is so bad that we just have to use a porcelain crown. We also use them with severely damaged teeth or teeth that have already had multiple fillings. Porcelain crowns are attached right to your teeth so that they can function, even when you bite something really hard! There are several types of porcelain crowns so it is important to discuss which type is best for you with your dentist.
- BridgesWhen your teeth are missing, it greatly affects your smile. At the same time, the missing tooth has the potential to negatively affect your oral hygiene because of unprotected gum exposure. Dental bridges are one of many options aimed at improving the appearance and function of your teeth by replacing the missing tooth or teeth. During your exam, we will discuss whether or not dental bridges are right for you.
- Dental BondingDental bonding is the procedure where we apply a tooth colored plastic material to a patient’s tooth. Using a special light, the material hardens and bonds the material to the tooth.
- Restorative Dentistry
- Root Canal TreatmentHad to get a root canal procedure and was accommodated quickly by being squeezed in the next day. Dr. Patel’s staff is responsive, courteous, and very friendly. Procedure was quick, painless and I was in and out in less than an hour. Great job Arcadia Dental!
- DenturesWe also offer bridges which "bridge" the gap between teeth. They are often cemented into place. We also offer dentures, either full or partial, depending on how many teeth you are missing. Once we are finished with your mouth, you will love to show your new smile off!
- OverdenturesAll-on-4® overdentures reduce the complexity of treatment, the number of surgeries, and the overall treatment time. It is less expensive compared with fixed implants.

- Invisalign OrthodonticsIf I could give 10 stars, I would. I HATE the dentist. I had not gone in 10 years, purposely, as I had never had a cavity and all my experiences were awful. I knew I needed to go but didn’t decide until I got invisalign and was told I had tartar that needed to be cleaned. I was extremely nervous and cancelled my appointments probably 5 times before going in. How silly I felt once Rosie started cleaning my teeth. I FELT NO PAIN. Not only did I not feel discomfort, but Rosie is sweet and calming and happily answered any questions I had. Dr. Patel was the same way. We ended up finding my first cavity and filling it. AGAIN. NO. PAIN.
- BracesWe offer advanced and innovative procedures like dental implant restoration, Invisalign invisible braces, and much more. This allows us to provide you with the dental care that you are looking for and deserve.
- Teeth WhiteningA common request we receive is how to make a smile whiter and brighter. This is a relatively simple and quick treatment option that can be performed periodically. Certain foods and beverages, such as wine and coffee, stain the teeth and contribute to discoloration. The teeth whitening process provides a solution that lightens the shade of the teeth. Additionally, the process actually rids the teeth of plaque and tartar that tend to lead to dental problems.
- Cosmetic DentistryA beautiful smile is one of the most sought after cosmetic features in the world. People from all backgrounds and professions want a bright, straight smile, and we are here to help turn that desire into reality. Whether through minor adjustments or major treatment plans, our cosmetic dentistry practice aims to improve your smile and help you build confidence in the way your teeth look.
- General DentistryHelping our patients maintain a healthy mouth and smile is the main goal of general dentistry. We prefer to provide more minor, preventive care than to see patients suffer with more intensive treatments from a problem that was not managed in time. We want to ensure that your oral health is in its optimal state and positively contributing to the health of your entire body. We are here to brighten your smile and pave the way for a brighter life.
