Who treats you

Dr. Waris & Dr. Arafa

You’ll be seen by Dr. Waris or Dr. Arafa, and because oral surgery is handled in-house by Dr. Arafa, even a tooth that can’t be saved doesn’t mean being sent to another office. One team, one plan, start to finish.

Nervous about the dentist? You’re not alone. Nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and extra-gentle numbing are all available, and nothing happens until you’re ready.

Best dental care since I’ve moved to this area. I had two emergencies last year, which they put me in the same day to be taken care of so I’ve moved my routine care over as well. The staff is always super nice! Our whole family goes here!

Cost & coverage

Pain First. Paperwork Second.

We’re in-network with most major PPO plans and accept Medicaid, and coverage shouldn’t decide whether you get care when you’re in pain. We’ll get you comfortable first, then walk through costs before any treatment begins.

No insurance? We offer financing plus in-house payment plans, so you know your options before you decide anything.
