Preventive & Diagnostic Care
Cantrell West Dental’s full range of services includes preventive and diagnostic dental care.
Highlights
Digital X-rays, which reduces the amount of radiation you would have received through traditional means only a few years ago by nearly 90%.
Digital images to help you see and understand your current state of dental health.
Cari-Vu and laser cavity detection so precise we can catch tooth decay long before you might need anesthetic to repair the tooth, and long before the decay would show itself on X-rays.
Comprehensive oral exams—the most thorough you’ve ever had. Period!
Oral cancer exams and non-invasive biopsies of questionable lesions
Consultations and second opinions when there are unanswered questions.
Cantrell West Dental’s full range of services includes restorative dentistry, such as fillings, crowns, implants, and cosmetic dentistry, such as teeth whitening, gum re-shaping, and more.

Cantrell West Dental is one of the 5% of all dental practices nationally to utilize LASER technology for easier, less painful, and more effective periodontal (gum) treatments that are faster healing, last longer, and require fewer antibiotics. Laser technology also provides significant and rapid relief by treating canker sores, herpes outbreaks, and denture sores more quickly and efficiently, and can be used for a variety of other soft tissue treatments.
Dr. Deems is certified in performing the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique, a scalpel-free, suture-free, graft-free treatment option for receding gums and saving teeth. Since there is no cutting or stitching, patients can expect minimal post-operative symptoms (pain, swelling and bleeding), and are pleasantly surprised by the instant cosmetic improvement. No more open wounds and lengthy discomfort associated with similar procedures! Most patients are able to resume light normal activities after 24-48 hours.
