- Dental SealantsWhen we apply a dental sealant, we paint a plastic coating on top of your teeth. This makes your teeth smooth getting rid of the rough edges, depressions, and grooves that are commonly found on teeth. It is essentially a protective coating against tooth decay and cavities.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeMany people get cavities and broken teeth. To treat them, we offer fillings. Most people prefer to use composite resin because it looks like your normal teeth, though there are other options if you prefer. Composite resin takes a little longer because we have to apply it one layer at a time. We also need to use a special light to harden the area around the filling.
- VeneersVeneers are a more affordable option than caps. They are used to cover stains, chips, decays, and irregularities. They are better than bonding because they won’t lose their color like bonding will.
- CrownsCrowns are placed to help improve your smile. They cover up your bad tooth, giving you a natural-looking, healthy smile.
- BridgesBridges – Bridges can solve the issue of missing teeth. Similar to dentures, bridges replace gaps in your smile with artificial teeth. Bridges can be made from a variety of materials including porcelain, gold, and alloys. Bridges can be removable or fixed. Removable bridges can be taken out and cleaned by patients, whereas fixed bridges have to be removed by a dentist. Bridges can be implanted to the jaw or under the gums. With so many options, it is important to consult with your dentist about which type of bridge is best for you.
- Dental BondingDental bonding is a procedure where we apply a tooth-colored plastic material to a patient’s tooth. Using a special light, we make the material harden and bond to the tooth.
- Root Canal TreatmentWe perform root canals on decayed teeth that can’t be fixed with fillings. We also do them on infected teeth or teeth that have suffered blunt trauma.
- Deep Cleaning
- DenturesAfter you start to lose your teeth, you can have problems. Your teeth and bones will start to shift, causing you to have trouble eating. This may also alter the look of your face. Because of this, dentures can be very helpful.
- Dental ImplantsIt is our goal to give our patients smiles of which they are proud. If you have missing teeth, you may need dental implants.
- Gum SurgeryLasers are helpful for many different procedures. They are good for gum surgery, whether we are remolding gums or removing a tumor from the gums. Dental surgery is done to remove extra tissue, tumors, and more.
- Tooth Extractions

- Teeth WhiteningThere are many options for teeth whitening including toothpastes, at-home bleaching, and bleaching in our office. Since each one works differently (and has different results), you should talk to us before you decide to bleach your teeth.
- Cosmetic DentistryCosmetic Dentistry – A beautiful smile is one of the most sought after features in cosmetic medicine. People from all backgrounds and professions want a white, straight smile, and we can help make it a reality. Whether through minor adjustments or major changes, cosmetic dentistry aims to help people feel good about the way their teeth look. There are many procedures that can improve your teeth and correct issues such as discoloration, chips, gaps, or irregularities. Common options include bonding, veneers, bleaching, reshaping, and crowns. In addition to cosmetic improvements, these procedures can help solve other oral problems as well.
- General DentistryDr. Ed Obrock practiced on the 2nd floor of the Kresge Building at 6th & Maine from 1957 to 1966, at which time he moved the practice to 803 Ohio, in the new professional building adjacent to 8th & State St. He continued in the solo practice of general dentistry in that location for the next 17 years. With the addition of Dr. Paul in 1983, the group practice changed locations to 334 S. 8th St., on the NW corner of 8th & Kentucky. By moving only two blocks, the practice was able to stay in the German Village of Quincy, a State of Illinois Historic District.
