Our Services

Periodontal Disease​
Did you know that 75% of tooth loss is due to periodontal disease? Periodontal disease is the 6th most prevalent chronic disease in the world.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial roots used to replace teeth that have been lost. Nearly everyone who is missing a tooth is a candidate for a dental implant.

Soft Tissue Grafting
Sometimes, our gum tissue can break down and thin in a process known as recession. The process of soft tissue grafting transplants gum tissue for reinforcement.

Oral Biopsy
The tissues of our oral cavity can morph from normal to abnormal. Any abnormal areas should be assessed and monitored.

Crown Lengthening
The crown is the portion of tooth that can be seen above the gum line. In some instances, the tissues around the crown must be altered for aesthetic or conventional purposes.

Frenectomy
The frenum is the muscle that attaches the lips to the gums and tongue to the floor of the mouth. Sometimes, however, the attachment is too strong. A frenectomy effectively loosens this tight attachment for normal speech, smiles, and eating.

CBCT
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a 3D digital x-ray.
CBCTs improve imaging, treatment planning, and allow for a virtual surgery.

Sedation Dentistry
Nearly 75% of adults are afraid of the dentist.
Our team can provide your experience with us under conscious sedation.

Dr Fritz is the most kind and genuine person. I had gum grafts done in June and they’ve healed amazing. I’m someone who is afraid of the dentist but Dr Fritz and his team made an intimidating process, honestly, enjoyable. I honestly could not recommend him and his team enough. Amazing and everyone is so kind.

As someone who has a lot of anxiety about medial procedures and even regular dentist visits, I have to say that my experience (implant procedure) with the Fritz team was far better than I ever could’ve imagined! All of the staff were very pleasant and really took the time to make me feel comfortable and address my questions. I was also impressed by the facilities. Beyond the clinical standards you’d expect (cleanliness, modern equipment, etc.), it’s evident that they invest in, and take pride in, the customer experience. Some examples are, relaxation music, comfortable recliners, heated blankets and even a nautical theme! If you didn’t know better, you’d think you were at a spa. So in one of the very few positive reviews I’ve ever taken the time to write, I have to say, well done Fritz team!

Dr. Fritz, his assistant and all staff at the clinic were amazing – welcoming, informative and polite. Dr Fritz and his assistant took their time to explain in detail the procedure and ensured complete understanding. Office was impeccably clean and welcoming as well.

Such a positive experience from start to finish! Wonderful caring staff. Dr.Fritz has changed my opinion of dentistry – state of the art equipment and air quality. Such attention to detail, explaining carefully the whole experience and checking my comfort level throughout. The office is welcoming with beautiful decor and art work and spotlessly clean. Definitely 10 out of 10!
