Kind, friendly and funny. I have never been so happy at the dentist and excited to make a new appointment.
Dr. Cross was awesome.
And so was her assistant.
I never ever felt so at ease and comfortable.
I didn’t even tense up.
Thank you. God bless.

Dr. Vail (junior) recently fixed 2 chipped teeth for me, and another 2 for my husband, with composite veneers. We are both thrilled with the results. An inexpensive (compared to other estimates we got), quick procedure & very natural… looks just like our original teeth!
Great team! Amazing staff! Everyone at Dr. Vail’s office is amazing but I would like thank Lamia, who is an exceptional associate who I noticed goes above and beyond to ensure her patient thank you to everyone and the staff .
Everyone at Dr. Vail’s office is amazing but I would like to mention Lamia, who is an exceptional associate who I noticed consistently goes above and beyond to ensure her patients receive top-quality care. Her approach makes even the most anxious patients feel at ease.
Clear aligners are an effective orthodontic treatment for a variety of alignment needs. However, they may not be suitable for everyone, particularly individuals with severe orthodontic issues. Additionally, if you struggle with compliance or commitment to wearing the aligners as directed, you may not achieve the desired results. During your consultation, we’ll determine if you are a suitable candidate for treatment and discuss your options.
Unlike traditional braces that use metal brackets, bands, and wires, clear plastic teeth aligners gradually straighten your teeth with each set. You simply slide the aligners over your teeth and wear them for at least 20-22 hours a day. You can freely remove your aligners for eating, brushing, or a special occasion, so long as you put them back in when you’re done.
The average clear aligners treatment time for adults is 12 months, which is months less than most patients spend in braces. Instead of moving each tooth individually as braces do, aligners move your teeth simultaneously. This results in quicker overall treatment. To achieve the best results, you’ll need to wear your aligners at least 22 hours a day.
