General Dentistry

Routine and preventive care is the foundation of long-term oral health, and it’s most of what we do. Regular cleanings and exams catch small problems (a cavity starting, gums that are inflamed, a tooth wearing down) while they’re still simple to fix. For most families in North Las Vegas, two visits a year is enough to stay ahead of trouble.

What general dentistry covers

General dentistry is broad on purpose. At our office on Craig Road, it includes:

• Cleanings and exams to keep teeth and gums healthy and spot issues early
• Tooth-colored fillings for cavities
• Children’s dentistry, from a toddler’s first visit through the teenage years
• Sealants and fluoride to protect kids’ teeth from decay
• Digital X-rays that show what an exam alone can’t
• Periodontal (gum) therapy when gums need more than a routine cleaning
• Tooth extractions when a tooth can’t be saved
• Emergency visits for a toothache, a broken tooth, or a lost filling
• Oral sedation for patients who get anxious in the chair

We start every new patient with a cleaning and exam, talk through what we find, and plan care around your schedule and budget instead of a fixed script.

A practice for the whole family

We treat kids and adults, often on the same day, so parents aren’t making separate trips. Dr. Zac is a father of five, and the office is set up to stay calm for nervous patients and patient with young ones.

Common questions

How often should I come in?

For most people, a cleaning and exam every six months. If you’ve had gum problems, we may suggest coming in more often for a while.

Do you see children?

Yes. We see kids and adults, and we’re used to first visits. The goal is to make them easy, so a child grows up comfortable at the dentist.

What should I do in a dental emergency?

Call us at (702) 633-4333. For a knocked-out or badly broken tooth, the sooner we see you the better, so phone ahead and we’ll fit you in.

Do you take my insurance?

We accept more than 30 plans, including most major PPOs. If you’re not sure yours is covered, call and we’ll check your benefits before your visit.
