Dr. Ho wants you to show off your beautiful smile! Your teeth should be healthy, strong --and yes--absolutely beautiful. Don’t let common treatable problems keep you from smiling; Dr. Ho can help.
Smile Makeover
Am I a candidate for a smile makeover?
- Have you found creative ways to cover your mouth when you smile or laugh?
- Do you have crooked or overlapping teeth?
- Do you have unsightly metal fillings?
- Are your teeth stained or discolored?
- Do you have gaps or spaces between your teeth?
- Do your gums show more than your teeth?
- Do you have teeth that appear worn or short?
All over the world, across every language and every culture, a smile is universal. Dr. Ho cannot understate the importance of a healthy smile.
Computer Imaging
See your new smile BEFORE you begin treatment!
Dr. Ho uses “Smile Art Communications” for his smile makeovers. Using the latest computer imaging technology, you can actually see an image of what your smile will look like before you decide to undergo certain procedures. This is one way that Dr. Ho can help you make the most informed decisions about your dental care.

Invisalign®
The invisible alternative to braces!
Is the thought of a mouthful of braces almost as embarrassing as the appearance of your teeth? Then forget about braces, and set your sights on Invisalign®!
Dr. Ho will plan your treatment using a series of computer generated molds that are precision made to fit your mouth. Every two weeks, you switch to the next aligner in your program. Over time, your teeth gradually move into the proper position.
Invisalign® is:
- Virtually invisible. Smile all you like, during and after treatment.
- Removable. Take them out to eat, brush, and floss. Progress to the next aligner in your program at home!
- Effective. Invisalign® can fix most of the problems for which traditional braces are often prescribed.
- Affordable. An Invisalign® program does not cost significantly more than traditional braces, and is usually covered by any dental insurance which covers braces.
Now there’s nothing standing between you and the attractive smile you’ve always wanted!
Porcelain Veneers
The best option for repairing worn or damaged teeth
When you bond a wafer-thin sheet of porcelain to the front of a worn, chipped, or discolored tooth, you get a beautiful and durable new tooth surface. Porcelain has a very life-like tooth appearance, and is highly resistant to stains. Because porcelain is glass-like and translucent, it adds a naturally shiny surface to the underlying tooth.
Anxiety Free Dentistry
Dr. Stephen Ho uses the latest technology and sedation dentistry for safety and comfort. He offers both oral sedation (pill) and nitrous oxide sedation.
Teeth Whitening
A simple way to rejuvenate your smile
Old, worn, discolored teeth can be a big turn-off, but it’s an easy problem to fix. You don’t have to curl your lips over your teeth anymore because Dr. Ho can help! We offer both in-office tooth whitening with custom trays and take-home Rembrandt whitening strips. Don’t let discolored teeth keep you from smiling, contact Dr. Ho today.
Porcelain Inlays and Onlays
A beautiful way to renew unsightly fillings or decay
Porcelain inlays and onlays are a durable and esthetic option for restoring teeth that have deteriorated by decay, but still have sufficient enamel left. Inlays are used to replace small amounts of the biting surface and onlays are used to replace larger biting surfaces.
It feels good to smile, and a beautiful smile makes you feel good about yourself.
Tooth Colored Fillings
Tooth colored fillings are custom made to match the color of your natural teeth. They are made from composite resin, a durable form of plastic. Tooth-colored fillings are preferable to silver fillings on any visible tooth surface. With proper care and regular dental visits, tooth colored fillings can last a long time.
Sedation Dentistry
Don’t let Dentist Anxiety keep you from having the smile you deserve
Do you finally get up the nerve to make a dental appointment, and then “forget” about it when the time comes? Will you tolerate a throbbing toothache for days, weeks, or months before going to a dentist? Does the mere thought of a needle make you cringe?
Dentist anxiety is extremely common, and Dr. Ho understands.
It doesn’t matter why you don’t like going to the dentist, Dr. Ho can help.
One safe and simple pill can have you so relaxed; you may just sleep through your entire visit. You are not completely unconscious, so there is less risk of complications than conventional dental anesthesia. This is also an excellent option for patients with a strong gag reflex.

If you prefer, Dr. Ho also offers sedation with nitrous oxide.
