For those undergoing Oral or IV sedation, we utilize an EKG with Capnography that will automatically record and track on a computer all your vitals and ensure the utmost safety.

In 2016, Dr. Bond passed the Academy of Laser Dentistry Standard Proficiency Exam qualifying him in all currently available dental lasers. He is recognized as the only LANAP/LAPIP trained and certified provider in the county. To be put simply, LANAP/LAPIP can save teeth and implants without significant surgery, bone grafting, or postoperative pain.
