What we do
Six treatments we’ve built this practice around.
We kept the things that change how someone lives — chewing, smiling, sleeping without pain — and referred out the rest. Everything below happens in this building.
Full-Arch Restoration
Four to six implants supporting a fixed, non-removable arch. Failing or missing teeth to a complete smile — often with temporaries placed the same day.
From $21,500 per archPorcelain Veneers
Hand-layered porcelain designed against your face, not a catalogue. We mock the result up in your mouth first, so you approve the smile before we prepare a single tooth.
From $1,650 per toothInvisalign Clear Aligners
Diamond-tier provider. Digital scan, no goop, and a simulation of your finished smile at the consult. Most adult cases finish in nine to fourteen months.
From $4,200 · $135/moSame-Day CEREC Crowns
Milled in our lab while you wait. One appointment, one anaesthetic, no temporary crown to fall off over a weekend and no second visit.
From $1,450 · One visitSedation & Emergency Care
Oral and IV sedation for anxious patients, plus same-day emergency slots held open every single weekday for pain, breaks and knocked-out teeth.

Who you’ll see
One dentist. Every appointment. For eighteen years.
I opened Northlake in 2008 because I was tired of watching corporate practices book three chairs to one dentist and call it care. Here, you see me — the whole appointment, every appointment. No rotating associates, no handoffs halfway through a treatment plan.
A large part of my practice is people who have avoided dentistry for years, sometimes decades. Nobody gets a lecture here about what they should have done sooner. We start from wherever you are and we go at your pace.

Your visit
What makes this different, in four steps.
01
A consult that isn't a sales pitch
Ninety minutes, 3D imaging, and a written plan with real numbers. If nothing needs doing, we will happily tell you that.
02
You see it before we start
Digital smile design and an in-mouth mock-up for cosmetic work. You approve the final look before any tooth is touched.
03
Comfort is engineered, not promised
Topical before every injection, buffered anaesthetic, noise-cancelling headphones, and sedation whenever you want it.
04
One team, start to finish
Surgical and restorative work happen in this building, with one doctor accountable. Nothing gets handed off mid-treatment.

★★★★★
I avoided dentists for eleven years out of pure fear. Dr. Vance let me come in twice just to sit in the chair and talk. I have since had two implants and I genuinely do not dread appointments any more.
Before you call
The questions we get most.
We are in-network with Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, Guardian and United Concordia, and we file out-of-network claims for everyone else at no extra charge. Our treatment coordinator will run a full benefits check before you commit to anything, so the number on your plan is the number you actually pay.
Our in-house membership plan is $32/month and covers two cleanings, two exams, all routine x-rays and an emergency visit, plus 20% off any treatment. For most people without insurance it works out better than a policy, because there is no annual maximum and no waiting period.
A single implant with abutment and crown runs $3,900 to $5,200 here, all-inclusive. Beware quotes advertising $1,200 — that is usually the post alone, with the abutment, crown, imaging and any grafting billed separately, which typically lands in the same place or higher. Our quote is one number, in writing.
Genuinely, far less than people expect. We use topical anaesthetic before every injection, buffered anaesthetic that works faster and stings less, and we offer oral or IV sedation for any procedure at any time — including a cleaning, if that is what gets you in the door.
We hold emergency slots open every weekday and see most urgent cases the same day. Pain, swelling, a broken tooth or a knocked-out tooth all count. If a tooth has been knocked out, keep it in milk and call us immediately — the first hour genuinely matters.
Yes. We offer CareCredit and Cherry with 0% for 12 to 24 months on approved credit, plus our own in-house payment plans for larger cases like full-arch work. Pre-qualifying is a soft credit check and takes about a minute at the front desk.

New patient exam, full imaging and a cleaning is $189 without insurance — and usually fully covered with it. Emergencies are seen the same day.
