What we do and don't do
Okada Dental is a general dental office with a narrow focus. Here is where our work stops, so you aren't surprised.
What we do
Look at your teeth, gums and bite
An exam, with X-rays only when they are needed.
Make and fit night guards
From an impression or scan, with a check afterward.
Check how your jaw moves
And tell you what that suggests.
Tell you when to see someone else
A physician, another dentist or another provider.
What we don't do
Cleanings, fillings, crowns, root canals or tooth removal
If you need one, Dr. Okada tells you and can send your records to the dentist you choose.
Diagnose or treat sleep apnea
A physician does that. We ask about your sleep so we can tell you when to see one.
Treat headaches, neck pain or conditions outside the mouth
We can tell you what we see in your teeth and bite. We are not a substitute for medical care.
Emergency care
If you have trouble breathing or swallowing, swelling that spreads to your face or neck, or bleeding that won't stop, call 911.
Not sure it's the right office?
Call and Catherine will tell you honestly whether we can help or who to see instead.
