Family Dentistry
Every family should have a high-quality dentist with whom they can grow and build a trusting relationship.
We offer a family-oriented practice to provide patients with all of their dental needs.
While our office offers numerous dental services, gentle and thorough regular cleanings and check-ups are still at the foundation of our practice.
Family-Oriented Dentistry
Our team recognizes the importance of providing the services families need and customizing care for kids.
Our office is warm and inviting, and our hygienists, assistants, and front desk staff are all very friendly. We will do whatever it takes to ensure that you’re comfortable and happy during your visit.
Our office is a peaceful place, and our team will work with you to alleviate your concerns.
Outstanding Oral Hygiene
Regular cleanings and check-ups are a crucial ingredient to a healthy preventive care routine. These allow us to give your teeth a thorough cleaning to remove the plaque and tartar that build up on your teeth over the months.
By examining your teeth during your visit, we can screen for any issues that may be developing, such as tooth decay or gum disease. Instead of waiting until a problem is in advanced stages, we can identify them early and avoid extensive treatment in the future.
We look forward to serving your entire family.
We recommend your child start seeing a dentist early to monitor their development. As children lose their baby teeth and grow new teeth, it’s important to check in and ensure the constant changes associated with a developing child’s teeth are occurring normally.
We also know how valuable your time is and will do everything we can to ensure that we begin your regular visits on time and complete them efficiently.
Special Services
Hopefully, with proper oral hygiene care and regular cleanings and check-ups at our office, your teeth will be healthy and problem-free. However, if you do require special services, we offer many additional types of care in-house. For example, our office can replace missing teeth, support your cosmetic needs, provide orthodontic care, and relieve pain.
If you do happen to require a service that our office does not provide in-house, we can refer you to a qualified, local specialist to fulfill your needs.
We look forward to satisfying more patients each day. Call our office to schedule an appointment for you and your family.
Always received excellent care for regular cleanings
My family and I have been patients at Token Creek Dental for about three years now. We have always received excellent care for regular cleanings, checkups and cavity fillings. Dr. Thor and the staff of Token Creek Dental are friendly, professional, timely and knowledgeable. And they are really patient with my kiddos, which eases my stress as a parent and helps our visits go smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions
A fractured tooth is a tooth at risk. You may not even know a tooth is cracked or fractured, or you may feel pain or sensitivity when biting down or exposing the tooth to hot or cold temperatures. An endodontist specialist can diagnose and treat fractures in a tooth and damage to its inner pulp.
Treating fractured teeth is critical. With continuous pressure from chewing, the interior tissues of a tooth may be unable to heal, leading to irritation and even infection. These inner tissues, or pulp, include a tooth’s interior nerves, tissues, and blood vessels.
An endodontist specialist will treat a tooth fracture depending on its location and severity. A dental crown can usually protect teeth with small fractures above the gum line, and you can see your dentist for this type of restoration.
However, if the tooth has a crack below the gum line, you may need a root canal to treat the damaged pulp. Endodontists specialize in root canal treatment, preventing the fracture from spreading or even causing tooth loss. A dental crown completes the restoration.
If the tooth is severely damaged, an endodontist specialist may recommend endodontic surgery to save part of the tooth or an extraction. If the tooth needs extraction, your endodontist can discuss options for replacing the tooth, such as a dental implant.
