Whether you are looking for a general dentist or whether you are interested in our additional services, including clear braces and treatments for TMJ disorder or sleep apnea, you have found the right place. Complete Dental Care Philosophy Dr. O'Brien believes that there is more to oral health than just your teeth. That's why we follow the Dawson Academy's philosophy of complete dental care. Complete dental care takes into account not only your teeth but also the surrounding joints and muscles, all of which must work in harmony to provide a solid foundation for oral health. Complete dentistry seeks to diagnose underlying dental problems before recommending a treatment to ensure that the outcome will be a comfortable, balanced bite and long term dental health. Dr. O'Brien takes this comprehensive approach to all dentistry, from preventative to cosmetic, and devotes numerous hours annually to continuing education as part of her commitment to bringing the latest techniques and treatments to her patients at O'Brien Smiles.
