Gentle general dentistry encompasses many aspects. First of all let's explain why we are proud to emphasize the word gentle. Be assured that every time you step into our office we will do our best to make you comfortable. We understand that many people have had a bad experience sometime in their past that has made them fearful. Less than 1% of our patients even ask for nitrous oxide (laughing gas). Because the figure is almost zero, we no longer offer gas in our office. Less than 1% of our patients who are children ever need to be referred to a specialist. This is because we show them how much treatment has advanced, and because Dr. Harrison is truly very gentle. We are VERY proud of those statistics.

When you become part of our family we will try to note your preference for music, movies and TV shows to help make your visits easier. Please share this information with us.

General dentistry includes work from exams to root canals. Below note several procedures. Remember that if you do not have good dental health-you do not have good overall health. That is a fact. Too many people think that because they are in good physical shape - their mouth automatically is fine as well. The fact that no teeth hurt right now does not mean you have good dental health. Only a dentist can confirm if you do or do not have good dental health. The majority of people with gum disease are unaware they have it. Tooth decay, that means teeth are rotting away, starts small and gradually gets bigger. You don't feel it until it is big-many times already in your nerve. Good dental health requires regular exams and cleanings. This catches problems and can prevent future pain, time in the dental chair, expense and worst of all-tooth loss. Please review the procedures listed below and feel free to call or e-mail us with any questions.
