192 E Chestnut St B Asheville NC, 28801About
We are a neighborhood family oriented general dental practice located near downtown Asheville. We are committed to providing the highest quality dental care in a beautiful pleasant atmosphere that will take your breath away as soon as you walk in our door. We have the latest up to date technology you can find in a general dental practice. What that means for our patient is that we can take x-rays with a machine that has the lowest dose of radiation of any other machine on the market today. With our new 3D Cone Beam Machine we can place implants in the exact position for a perfect restoration right in our own office. No more referrals to oral surgeons or periodontist, specialist that you don't know and don't have a relationship with. We also have the Serona-Cerec machine that allows us to make crowns in a day, so no more gooey impressions that you have to sit with your mouth open and stuff flowing down your throat, and then wait 2-3 weeks while your crown is being made. We simply take a digital picture of your teeth and from there it is all done via computer, while you sit back and read a magazine or work on your iPad or lap top with our free wi-fi. Higher education goes along with all this technology. Wendy Willoughby has spent hundreds of hours outside of her dental office learning from the top experts in their field about, dental implants, advanced surgical techiques, and the latest in new materails and procedures in composite restorations, crown and bridge, aesthetic dentistry, dentures, partials, the newest technique in a traumatic tooth extraction, 3D imaging, placing and restoring implants.Our staff is highly trained and well educated and continue to stay up on the latest techniques and technology,because we require continuing their education outside the of the dental office. Our office is devoted to making your dental care as pleasant and pain free as possible. Even though we are here to provide general dental services to our patients, what our staff and Doctors enjoy most is the friendship we form with our patients. Our appointments may take us a little longer than in most other office because we sit down and get to know you as a person not a tooth or treatment plan. We ar a one chair one person at a time general dental practce and we enjoy providing great dentistry for our friends and family. If you are interested in getting started please call our office at (828) 2255-0936.
