About Willow Tree Dental

Willow Tree Dental serves patients from its Cherry Lane office at 317 W. Cherry Lane in Meridian, Idaho, one of three Treasure Valley locations that also include a second Meridian office on Overland Road and a Boise office at Columbia Village. The practice offers a variety of dental procedures ranging from routine dental care to cosmetic and complex restorative dentistry, with a team dedicated to providing excellent, compassionate, and convenient care in a friendly and comfortable environment. The team takes time to explain procedures and answer questions, listening to each patient's unique needs, and the Cherry Lane office offers extended weekday hours plus Saturday appointments.

For patients considering dental implants, the practice explains that a dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw that fuses to the bone, and it can then be used to attach a crown for single tooth replacement or to anchor a denture for more stability. Because not everyone is a candidate, implant treatment starts with a consultation to determine whether an implant is right for you. Beyond implants, services at Willow Tree Dental include cleanings and exams, tooth colored fillings, crowns, bridges, root canal treatment, oral surgery including wisdom teeth removal, teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, sealants, night guards, and digital x-rays. For oral surgery visits, the office offers oral sedation or nitrous oxide, also called laughing gas, to help patients feel at ease.
