I love this place! I've feared dentists for a long time. Dr Lee and the staff here have helped me over come that fear. The office ladies Kat and Marella are the BEST, they always have an amazing attitude and help take the tension out of going to the dentist. Mary the office manager helped me find a way that fit my budget to get.the work done I needed without stressing me out financially. Definitely recommend!

What is the Mouth-Body Connection® ?


The Mouth-Body Connection® refers to the link between oral health and overall health, and the role that the harmful bacteria and inflammation in our mouths play in chronic, systemic disease. That’s why it’s time we talked about more than your teeth. Our office prioritizes your overall health as it relates to your oral health. When we care for your smile we’re also looking out for your entire self.
