Meet Your Providers
Advanced Technology for Superior Dental Care
Our commitment to providing the highest standard of dental care is reflected in our investment in cutting-edge dental technology. Our modern downtown Wilmington office is equipped with advanced dental tools that enhance accuracy, efficiency, and comfort during every procedure. One such innovation is our ability to provide same-day crowns, significantly reducing the time and inconvenience often associated with traditional crown procedures. Using computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology, patients can enjoy durable, aesthetically-pleasing restorations completed in a single visit.
Comprehensive Sedation Dentistry by Our Expert Nurse Anesthetist
Understanding that many patients experience anxiety or have complex health histories, we offer comprehensive sedation dentistry options, including IV sedation administered by our experienced nurse anesthetist, Esther Cassidy, RN, MSN, CRNA. Having a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA) on staff is unique among Wilmington area dental practices, offering an unparalleled level of safety and comfort, particularly for patients requiring extensive or complex dental treatments.
This specialized sedation option not only calms anxiety but also allows Dr. Bland and his clinical team to perform procedures ranging from routine care to intricate full-mouth restorations efficiently and comfortably. Our sedation dentistry options ensure that every patient, regardless of dental anxiety or complicated medical history, receives top-tier care in a relaxed and stress-free environment.

Unlike traditional implant methods, our advanced imaging and surgical planning technology enable precise placement of implants, significantly reducing procedure time and discomfort. Patients benefit from quicker recovery periods and more predictable, long-lasting results. Whether you require a single tooth replacement or full arch implant solutions, our expertise in 3D guided implant surgery provides the highest standard of care available in Wilmington and beyond.
