Our Philosophy
Dr. Kosinski and our entire staff are dedicated to providing compassionate, professional care to all our patients. From the moment you walk through our doors, our mission is to help you feel completely at ease. Our patient-first philosophy is evident in everything we do. We provide a wide variety of restorative and family dentistry services. Our team will work with you to form a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
Amenities
Our staff is delighted to provide individualized care in a stress-free environment for all our patients. To help you relax, we provide headphones and flat panel monitors in every one of our treatment rooms. While they wait during your visit, your friends and family can enjoy a refreshing beverage and the use of a telephone, television, DVD, or computer equipment upon request.
Friendly, Warm, Compassionate
Our goal is to provide you with exquisite dentistry in the most comfortable atmosphere possible. We want you to feel free to discuss your treatment with us. Our care runs the gamut from comprehensive preventative care and routine restorative procedures to full mouth reconstruction. This allows us to care for the entire family no matter their needs. In addition to our comprehensive approach to family dentistry, our practice focuses on three specific areas of dentistry: dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, and special needs dentistry.

Our Office
We are very proud of our state-of-the-art dental facility and our professional staff who are constantly striving to make your visit pleasant and rewarding. We invite you to take a virtual tour of our office. Each dental treatment room has a television for you to watch during treatment. There are also individual stereo headphones in each treatment room. This entertainment relaxes patients and helps the time to pass quickly.
Sterilization/Safety
All instruments and handpieces are sterilized in an autoclave under steam pressure. This is the same type of sterilization that is used in hospitals. For your protection, we adhere to infection control procedures known as universal precautions. We use the same infection control measures for each patient. You can be confident that all personnel follows guidelines as prescribed by the Centers for Disease Control. We would be happy to discuss these procedures with you.
