We are always striving forward! When I bought the practice the previous dentist was still using film and paper charts. Now we are fully digital and using all of the cutting edge technologies. We do Wellness scans every time you come in which tracks changes in your mouth, shows you a 3D replica of your mouth and does a simulation of what your teeth look like now and what they could look like with Invisalign. We offer in house dental memberships for our non insurance patients but for our insurance patients we check all benefits ahead of time so we can give you accurate treatment plans. Everything we do is purposeful and intentional so we can be our best for our patients.
Some areas where Humlicek Family Dental Excels:
1) Reducing dental anxiety. We have noise cancelling headphones, blankets, air diffusers, offer laughing gas and pre appointment sedation medications.
2) Keeping everything we can in house. We are certified in both Implants and Invisalign, we do crowns/bridges, root canals etc. and we treat ages 1 on up!
3) Customer service is at our core and we do everything we can to make our patients informed and satisfied.
