If you’re suffering from decayed, broken or missing teeth, you should know it is in your best interest to have them repaired or replaced to avoid further damage. At Whalen Dentistry, we understand the hesitancy many patients face when it comes time to restore or replace teeth, because in the past and in many dental offices still today, the process can be less than enjoyable.
Traditionally, you would have to come in and have messy impressions taken, get a numbing injection to prepare the tooth, and be placed with a temporary restoration while your impressions were sent to a lab to be created. Temporaries are not pretty and not very functional. You would return a few weeks later, get another injection, have the temporary removed, and finally be fitted with the final restoration.
- • No return appointments
- • No messy impressions
- • No temporaries
- • Fewer injections
- • Ultimate convenience
Whalen Dentistry is happy to be able to provide quality restorations like inlays/onlays, crowns, bridges and veneers in a single appointment! Come in with a dental problem and leave with a new smile the same day!

WHY OUR PATIENTS SMILE
“I called Dr. Whalen’s office needing an emergency appointment to repair a crown that had popped off late one Monday afternoon. I was scheduled to travel to Chicago on that Wednesday. Kelly from the office was extremely helpful and went out of her way to fit me into the next day’s schedule. The next day I saw Dr. Whalen and the tooth was repaired. The staff is fantastic – everyone was friendly and professional. Highly recommend.”
– James M.
