At our Chesapeake office, Dr. Robert Simmons and the dental team are constantly striving to deliver the best patient 
experience and treatment. By staying ahead of the curve and employing the latest developments in dentistry, we can provide relaxing care with lasting results. Conservative dentistry is our goal, so we’ve invested our resources in precise, non-invasive tools and in continuing education for our staff members, all for our patients’ benefit.
Dr. Simmons’ technology includes:
Laser Dentistry
The dental field is full of applications for laser technology. In surgical procedures such as gum disease therapy, a laser acts as a cutting tool, and can also vaporize tissue. Other uses include curing a filling, when it works to strengthen the bond between a patient’s filling and tooth, and a heat source to activate teeth whitening chemicals during a cosmetic treatment. Laser technology is also employed in devices that detect dental decay, such as the DIAGNOdent. Learn more about dental lasers…
DIAGNOdent
You can fight the development of dental decay with routine checkups, good home hygiene, and professional deep cleanings. Prevention is always preferable to treatment, but Dr. Simmons believes in early detection of any cavities that do occur, so that treatment is as conservative and comfortable as possible. DIAGNOdent uses laser technology to find any areas of decay, some that may yet be undetectable by routine visual inspection. Spotting and arresting a cavity in its early stages saves our patients the cost and time that more aggressive treatment would require down the road. Learn more about DIAGNOdent…
Digital X-Rays
Cleaner, clearer, and safer, digital X-rays are the future of dental radiography. They are also easily stored for future review, and can be magnified for more accurate diagnostic capability. Learn more about digital X-rays…
Dental Implants
As a man-made tooth root that anchors a single crown, bridge, or denture, dental implants are the most secure tooth-replacement option available today. They are designed to mimic the structure of natural teeth, so they look and feel like the real thing. You’ll never again need to worry about denture slippage or whether you can eat a meal with confidence. Dr. Simmons has restored many mouths to full function with dental implants.

Snoring and Sleep Apnea Devices
Patients who are diagnosed with sleep apnea have access to a compact, comfortable solution from Dr. Simmons. An oral appliance is a kind of mouthguard that patients with sleep apnea or snoring problems wear during sleep. The appliance keeps their airway open and free of obstruction.

Sedation Dentistry Options
We believe that every patient deserves dental health. For many people, dental phobia and anxiety is a major obstacle to preventive, general, or restorative care. As a sedation dentist with a gentle touch, Dr. Simmons can soothe even the most fearful patients with one or more of our safe and effective sedative options. Our relaxing office is staffed with a team who truly cares about your overall wellbeing, too. So if you have avoided dental treatment in the past, don’t put it off any longer.
