A Dental Clinic Built Around You
Choosing a dentist is about more than finding a convenient location. You want to understand your oral health, know what your options are, and feel comfortable with the care you’re receiving.
At The Teal Umbrella, we take the time to listen to your concerns, assess your oral health, and explain what we’re seeing. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about your dental care.
Whether you’re maintaining your oral health or addressing a specific concern, we’ll work with you to determine the appropriate next steps.
Personalized Care
Your dental needs, concerns, and goals help guide your care.
Clear Communication
We explain our findings and treatment options in straightforward language, so you can make informed decisions.
Comprehensive Dental Care
Our clinic provides a range of preventive, restorative, cosmetic, orthodontic, emergency, and family dental services.
Your Visit Starts With a Conversation
A dental appointment isn’t just about examining your teeth. It’s also an opportunity to talk about your oral health, ask questions, and understand your options.
When you visit The Teal Umbrella, your appointment may include a review of your dental history, a clinical examination, diagnostic imaging, photographs, or digital scanning depending on your needs.
We’ll explain what we’re seeing and discuss the appropriate options with you

Modern Dentistry, Used With Purpose
Technology can provide valuable information about your oral health, but we believe it should support care rather than replace personal communication.
Our dental clinic uses digital tools to assist with diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient education when appropriate.
Depending on your needs, this may include:
Digital X-Rays
Detailed dental imaging can help our team evaluate areas that may not be visible during a routine examination.
Clinical Photography
Dental photographs can help document your oral health and provide a visual reference when discussing your care.
Digital 3D Scanning
Digital scanning can provide detailed information about your teeth and bite and may be used for certain diagnostic and treatment-planning needs.
Our approach is simple: use the right technology when it can help us understand your dental health and provide appropriate care.
