The experience at Dr. Burhoop's was one of the best visits I have had at a dental office. The dental assistants and dental hygienists are compassionate and very calming. Dr. Burhoop makes the experience an enjoyable one and guides you in what you need to complete on each visit. If you are in need of a dentist, call The Dentist at Lakeport!

Using Technology to Empower Optimal Health
At The Dentist, it is our goal to help each of our patients achieve optimal oral health through convenient, comprehensive family care. That is why we provide thorough diagnosis and treatment with the help of 3-D Cone Beam technology. 3-D Dental X-Rays are safe and they allow us to obtain images at the highest resolution possible.
3D Cone Beams X-Rays
Dr. Burhoop uses the 3D Cone Beam X-ray not only to diagnose various conditions, but to prepare the best possible treatment plan for each individual patient. Not everyone is the same, and the 3D X-ray shows Dr. Burhoop and our staff things like your bone density, thickness, and where your nerves are, allowing us to provide you the best care possible. We are committed to having current technology to give each patient the care they deserve. Providing exceptional patient care that you can trust is our highest priority.
