At River Oaks Dental in Crosslake, we offer complete care to keep your family’s smiles healthy, comfortable, and confident. Whether you’re here for a routine visit or more advanced treatment, everything starts with prevention and builds from there.

General Dentistry

For most new patients, general dentistry is where their oral health begins. Regular exams and cleanings help prevent problems, catch issues early, and keep your oral health on track.

For new patients, this is an easy place to begin and the best way to get comfortable with your care.

Restorative Dentistry

When teeth are damaged or missing, we restore both function and appearance.

From fillings and same-day crowns to bridges, dentures, and implants, every treatment is tailored to your needs. Whenever possible, we preserve your natural tooth while rebuilding strength and comfort.

Cosmetic Dentistry

A confident smile can make a real difference in business and personal relationships. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the look of your teeth in a natural, balanced way.

We’ll help you choose the right approach based on your goals, whether you want a subtle refresh or a more noticeable change.

We understand the anxiety that can come with dental work, and our aim is to help you through it with every aspect of our practice. Sometimes these negative feelings result from a previous painful experience or a dentist or hygienist who embarrassed you about the condition of your teeth.

We accept patients where they are at, even if it’s been decades since they’ve had a cleaning or treatment. We tackle these fears head-on through compassion, sedation dentistry, and by listening when you need reassurance.

We want you to have a great experience at River Oaks Dental and leave with a confident smile, knowing your dental concerns are being addressed.

For your convenience, we accept cash, personal checks, money orders, and major credit cards. Payment is expected at the time services are performed. When more extensive dental care is necessary, financial arrangements can be made with our office.

For more details about payment options, please see our insurance page.

First visits are about getting to know you and your dental history. Arrive 15-20 minutes early for your appointment to complete intake forms. They’ll help us understand any immediate needs and the history that led you to River Oaks Dental.

Next, we’ll x-ray your teeth, and our dental hygienist will clean them and refresh your mouth.  Our dentists will examine your mouth and gums and work with you to develop a treatment plan.
