A new approach to dental care
The mouth is a window into the health of your body.
When we view everything through the lens of total body health, we can pinpoint root causes of disease, balance the environment in the mouth, restore your mouth to health, and work to minimize total body inflammation, which reduces your risk for over 57 systemic diseases.
“We restore the teeth to health and address why the teeth need to be restored in the first place.”
DR. JENNIFER COCHRAN
You’re invited on a wellness journey, where we will help answer the most important questions about your health.
“This place is amazing! Everyone feels like family. The hygienist was on top of the oral systemic connection for my personal health! Dr. Cochran was so kind and listened to my issues. I will definitely be going back and refer everyone I know to come here as well! Top-notch!

Our Treatments
-
Wellness Visits
These are customized appointments where you are screened and educated about potential dental and health problems. This goes well beyond a typical “dental cleaning.” We perform biofilm management to balance the oral environment and promote dental and total body wellness.
-
Health + Nutrition Coaching
Healthy food choices are important for your teeth as well your body. We guide you toward a path to improved nutrition, antioxidant status and digestion to help you look and feel your best. Learn about how the pH of food and drinks can impact your risk for dental decay.
-
Periodontal therapy + Gingivitis Care
We treat your saliva, biofilm and bad bacteria that are causing the disease and destruction associated with gingivitis and periodontal disease. We also help your body become more resistant to disease. This promotes long-lasting healing to avoid the need for future therapies and surgeries.
-
Advanced Testing
We offer oral DNA saliva testing for dangerous oral bacteria and genetic risk, antioxidant testing, dental materials reactivity testing and more. As needed, we collaborate with physician partners for sleep studies and additional imaging for evaluation by a dental radiologist.
-
Restorative Care
Tooth-colored bonded fillings: Strong and free of BPA, these fillings are both biocompatible and beautifully match your natural teeth.
Metal-free crowns and bridges: We use the most durable and natural-looking material available. The result is a restoration without the darkness found at the gumline with older type crowns. Biocompatible AND beautiful.
-
Cosmetic Dentistry
With an eye for detail and an artistic flair, we are able to deliver you the smile you have always dreamed of in the most conservative possible way. A smile evaluation will give you answers to your questions and a path to treatments that will make your smile as healthy and beautiful as possible.
-
Esthetic Bondings
Used to restore minor chips and imperfections, bondings are a very conservative and beautiful choice. Small changes can often make a big improvement in your smile. Usually no numbing is required and this treatment can be completed in one visit.
-
Porcelain Veneers
Do you want a smile makeover? The best compliment is when friends and family notice something different about you but can’t quite put their finger on it. That is what veneers can do! With minimal and no-prep veneers, little to no tooth structure is disturbed. It’s a conservative solution with the potential to dramatically change your smile.
-
Teeth Whitening
In-office whitening: In as little as 2 hours, you can have whiter teeth.
Take-home trays with gel: Great results in 2 weeks using custom-made trays and gel. Replenish and whiten as needed for years to come.
Grab and go kits: A quick and affordable solution to spruce up before a wedding or big event. Pick up a do-it-yourself kit of pre-filled one-size-fits all trays.
-
Invisalign
Fix crowded, crooked or spaced teeth with clear aligners in a very precise and streamlined way. Balance your bite for better chewing function and to prevent chipping and breaking teeth. The aligners are clear, so nobody will know you are wearing braces.
-
Dental Implant Restoration
When a tooth is lost, often a dental implant is the best solution. Dental implants have the advantage of maintaining bone in the area where a tooth is lost. They also never decay like natural teeth can, making it a great option for teeth lost due to decay. We work with dental surgeons to deliver Implant-restored replacement teeth that are both functional and beautiful.
-
Teeth Grinding Devices
Protect your teeth from wear and tear due to clenching and grinding habits with a custom-made BPA-free bite guard. These are designed to be comfortable to wear and minimize the strain on your TMJ. We also educate you on why you might be clenching or grinding and recommend other methods to break the cycle of bruxism, pain and tooth sensistivity.
-
SAFE Amalgam Removal
Approximately 25% of the population has genetic factors that make it difficult to eliminate toxins from the body. Often physicians will refer patients for the safe removal of dental amalgam fillings (alloys containing mercury and a blend of other heavy metals) in order to improve their health. Sometimes patients request this service for a multitude of reasons. With this optional procedure, extra precautions are taken in addition to the usual careful removal techniques in order to dramatically reduce or eliminate heavy metal exposure to the patient. Dental amalgam separators are now required in dental offices to keep this material out of the water system and amalgams are being phased out of use in many parts of the world because of health and environmental concerns.
-
Cardiovascular Consults
We evaluate the various causes of inflammation stemming from oral and dental origin to assist your physician in preventing or treating your cardiovascular and metabolic disease. After a thorough evaluation and follow-through with our recommendations, your inflammatory markers as measured on lab tests will be lower, reducing your risk for heart attack, stroke, diabetes and dementia. We send a very detailed report of specific findings and treatments along with home care recommendations designed to improve your overall health and reduce risk for cardiovascular disease. Even if you are happy with your current dentist, our consults are available to you.
-
Snoring + Sleep Apnea Devices
After a careful assessment to determine your airway health, a dental appliance can be a great option to the standard CPAP machine. Most people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are not aware of this condition but it is extremely important to treat it in order to keep oxygen flowing to the brain during sleep. Improve your health and eliminate the annoying sound of snoring during sleep – your bed partner will thank you.
Kind to the planet and to your body.
We use only natural dental materials to restore your teeth.
There is nothing better than healthy natural tooth structure. However, when teeth become broken down or decayed, it often becomes necessary to restore the teeth with a substitute material. When it comes to dental materials, are some better than others? If your goal is to have a healthy body, the answer is YES! We know that biocompatible materials are less likely to disturb your body than others and have carefully chosen the best to suit most mouths.
If you have extra concerns or a history of many allergies and sensitivities, we recommend a dental materials allergy test prior to treatment. Our materials are BPA-free and metal-free. You can rest assured that they will look and feel natural and not disturb your health.
