Kind words from a Gig Harbor area patient:
Prompt, professional! I’m referring my husband – asap! Not only was I informed of current needs but also future dental care/management; there is a realization that I truly have choices in long-term care. It’s the first time I’ve EVER been given that information. Thank you so much!

The Benefits of a Healthy Smile
How can comprehensive dentistry benefit our Gig Harbor area patients?
Confidence
Your smile is one of the first attributes that people notice. When you live with a beautiful, healthy smile, it can positively impact your entire life.
Improved Health
Your oral health plays an integral role in your overall health. Gum disease has been linked to severe health conditions, such as heart disease and Alzheimer’s.
Better Function
Even the most common activities, such as smiling, socializing, and eating, can be difficult if you suffer from missing or damaged teeth. Comprehensive dentistry helps prevent potential issues and restores beauty and function to your smile.

Our Restorative Treatments


Hygiene
Your oral hygiene is fundamental to preserving the health of your smile for a lifetime, as well as preventing significant issues down the road. When you visit SoundBridge Dental Arts & Sleep Therapy for your routine teeth cleaning, we don’t only clean and examine your smile. We also complete a full periodontal charting and an oral cancer screening.
Hygiene visits allow Dr. Bloomquist to monitor your oral health and teach you about techniques you can use to keep your smile healthy for years to come.
Children’s Dentistry
Dr. Bloomquist and our team have the expertise to treat patients of all ages. When you choose our Gig Harbor practice for your child’s dental care, you’re investing in a team of dental professionals whose focus is on ensuring they have a positive experience and properly learn how to care for their teeth.
Crowns and Bridges
Depending on the severity of damage or decay, we can use a dental crown to restore the way your tooth functions and appears. If you’re missing a tooth, Dr. Bloomquist may recommend a dental bridge. Bridges work by anchoring the restoration to the adjacent teeth.
Metal-Free Fillings
At SoundBridge Dental Arts & Sleep Therapy, we use tooth-colored composite resin or porcelain fillings to restore areas of your teeth that were affected by decay, fractures, or trauma. Our natural-looking fillings blend with your smile. They also provide added strength and protection, stabilizing the structure of your tooth.
Sealants
Sealants are a common way to defend your smile from cavity-causing bacteria. A sealant is a thin coat of resin that’s applied to the surface of a tooth. This treatment is often used in hard-to-clean areas.


Nightguards and Sports Mouthguards
Lost or damaged teeth can negatively affect not only the function of your smile but also your self-esteem. We offer custom-fitted mouthguards to protect your teeth from grinding while you sleep and from injury during sports. Unlike store-bought mouthguards, ours are customized to fit comfortably on your smile so they’ll stay in place.
Root Canal Therapy
Over the years, root canals have gained a reputation for being scary and painful. However, they don’t have to be. Dr. Bloomquist will use root canal therapy if your tooth is severely damaged from trauma or decay, but thanks to anesthetics, the procedure is nearly painless.
Root canal therapy removes the infected pulp from the center of the tooth, saving the structure from extraction.
Periodontics
During your appointments, we’ll clean your teeth, but we’ll also check your smile for gum disease. If needed, we can schedule a deep cleaning to remove bacteria and take control of the effects of gum disease.
Soft-Tissue Laser
Dr. Bloomquist is qualified to use a special dental laser that’s excellent for treatments that involve soft tissue, such as cold sore removal, periodontal therapy, and gum recontouring. Our patients love the soft-tissue laser because it’s minimally invasive, virtually painless, and promotes faster healing times.
