Welcome to Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry
I love practicing dentistry and am delighted to have been a Las Vegas dentist since 1992. It is gratifying for me to see, even after 25 years in practice, the dramatic changes in a patient's smile, confidence, and self-esteem after receiving quality dental care.

Featured Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dental procedures are aimed at improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and bite and fighting the effects of age and wear that affect even the healthiest teeth. From alignment, shape, or size to whitening and stain removal, our cosmetic dental services can improve the aesthetic quality of your teeth so that your smile looks as good as it feels.
More informationInvisalign
Custom-made to straighten your teeth, Invisalign’s clear aligners are nearly invisible. Each aligner is made of a proprietary, multi-layer SmartTrack material, which gently shifts your teeth into place over time, moving them slightly both horizontally and vertically and even rotating them if necessary. The aligners are engineered so that as you change to the next set of aligners (typically every two weeks), your teeth gradually move into their correct position.
More informationImplants
Dental implants provide a comfortable, permanent solution to lost teeth. The dental replacements are attached to titanium posts that actually fuse to your jawbone and become natural anchors, so your new teeth will remain securely in place without the need for messy adhesives. A fully restored smile is as healthy as it is beautiful by promoting bone growth and reducing the risk of receding gums.

From the time I was 16 years old I knew I wanted to become a dentist. I was intrigued watching my own dentist masterfully combine the art and science of dentistry. I quickly set my sights on this career path.

Dental Services at The Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry
General Dentistry
General Dentistry focuses on the connection between dental care and your body's overall health. The dentist works with you to develop an effective regimen for dental hygiene, preventative maintenance, and regularly scheduled exams. In order to provide the best possible service, our entire dental team pursues continuing education and professional training in the latest diagnostic techniques, treatment, and technology. In addition to caring for the physical integrity of your teeth and restorative structures such as fillings and crowns, we also monitor any changes that could indicate diseases or disorders that might significantly affect the entire maxillofacial area.
Professional Teeth Cleaning
We recommend that you visit us at least twice a year for a regular check-up and professional teeth cleaning. A professional cleaning will remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing at home just can't handle. Professionally eliminating this build-up of plaque and tartar helps to prevent bad breath, tooth decay, and periodontal disease. The best dental care we can provide for our patients is preventative care. Regular check-ups and professional teeth cleaning prevent small problems from becoming more complex and difficult to treat.
Fillings and Crowns
Regardless of how meticulous you are about your oral health care, problems can always occur. Whether the cause is physical trauma or untreated decay, our team here at The Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry will work with you to find the dental treatment option that is perfectly suited to your individual oral health needs.
We want you to be well informed about your dental treatment options so that you will be satisfied with your care. The Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry is dedicated to providing the people of Henderson, Nevada with dental services that are effective, affordable, and convenient.
Our dental team will apply a custom, natural-looking crown (or "cap") in cases where decay or trauma has done too much damage to completely restore the original tooth. Crowns are an excellent alternative to extraction that offer long-term durability, protection from decay or cracking, and an improved, natural appearance. We can even create and place your crown in just one day.
A crown may be right for you if...
- you have chipped or broken teeth that are immediately visible as soon as the dental array is revealed. This situation could require tooth removal and cause a gap in your teeth that requires a surface replacement.
- you have undergone a root canal that requires a significant portion of the tooth to be removed to make way for the support structure and the cleaning process.
- you have weak and damage-prone teeth.
- you have a tooth that is severely discolored.
Cosmetic Dentistry
At The Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry, we want your smile to look as good as it feels. Our dental team can help you smile with pride by effectively treating problems that range from discoloration to misalignment.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front of the teeth in order to change their color, shape, size or length. Porcelain veneers are stronger, more durable, and resist stains better than resin veneers. These veneers are a popular option because they mimic the light reflecting properties of natural teeth. Dental veneers can also provide relief from the tooth pain associated with worn enamel.
Invisalign and Invisalign Teen
The Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry is proud to be your Invisalign provider in Henderson, Nevada. Invisalign is an innovative alternative to traditional metal braces for correcting dental misalignment or spacing problems. Your teeth are gradually shifted into their optimal position by a series of custom-made clear aligners that are virtually invisible, comfortable to wear, and easily removed to accommodate activities such as eating or sports. Working adults are able to maintain a professional appearance and enjoy the dramatic improvement of properly aligned teeth without feeling self-conscious. Invisalign Teen is specially designed to complement your adolescent patient's lifestyle, which also encourages their enthusiastic participation in a way that traditional metal braces simply can't match.
