cleaning. This comprehensive examination includes:

The entire exam takes approximately one hour and ten minutes.

My wife and I have been seeing
Dr. Stanfield for over 20 years, and we think he couldn’t be a more personable or caring dentist! We really appreciate Dr. Stanfield’s personal service and caring attitude. He always makes a point to check us thoroughly based on our recent medical history. It’s nice, too, that sitting in the dental chair looking at the lake is such a peaceful, nice setting.
