Forest Smiles

Forest Smiles The advances in dentistry are constantly providing patients with new treatment options and overall improved oral health.

We believe that quality dental care should be enjoyed by everyone whether it be a regular cleaning, cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening, or full mouth restoration. Because of recent breakthroughs in cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening, and sedation techniques, patients may have treatment options not available even a few years ago. Dr. Claiborne and Dr. Schmidt are committed to using the latest treatments and educating patients so they can proudly display their smile.

"How long will this actually take?" It's the #1 question we hear about dental implants — and the honest answer is: it depends. Some patients are done in a single day. Others need a few months for the best long-term result.

Our latest blog breaks down the real dental implant timeline, from your first consultation to your final crown, plus how Forest Smiles' same-day full-arch option can dramatically speed things up. 🦷✨
