Meet Dr. Klein
We grow up with our patients. Join the family!
From checkups & cleanings to full-mouth implants.
The treatment you deserve, within any budget.
The cornerstone of our practice is preventive dental care. Through bi-annual dental checkups and cleanings, Dr. Klein is able to screen for problems such as gum disease, cavities and oral cancer — and when caught early, they can be treated completely before progressing into costly, cumbersome issues. We also welcome patients of all ages, so bring the whole family! From pediatric to geriatric, our friendly team is ready to help everyone achieve and maintain their brightest, healthiest smiles yet.
About Checkups & Cleanings Other Preventive Services
With a success rate over 97%, dental implants are the gold standard in replacing as little as one tooth and as much as one or both arches. Compared to traditional tooth replacement options, implants restore the entire missing structure, including both roots and crowns. This results in an incredibly stable, life-like prosthetic that can last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. Best of all, Dr. Klein is trained to both place and restore implants, eliminating the need to visit an oral surgeon!
About Dental Implants Other Replacement Options
Do you snore loudly at night? Have others witnessed you gasping for air in your sleep? Is your blood pressure high? Do you experience brain-fog and an inability to focus throughout the day? These are all tell-tale signs of sleep apnea, a common sleep disorder affecting over 22 million US adults. The good news? Dr. Klein offers a treatment that is simple, safe, affordable — and most importantly — effective: oral appliance therapy. Contact us today to request a consultation and learn more!
About Sleep Apnea Therapy
When it comes to cracked teeth or a tooth infected beyond repair — dental crowns are your best option. Dr. Klein can custom-craft a new exterior portion of the damaged tooth to re-establish its original function and create a natural appearance. If you are missing one or more teeth, we can also create a dental bridge that anchors onto adjacent, healthy teeth to restore the missing tooth in the middle. Ask us today about your options — we’re always ready to help you explore them.
About Dental Crowns & Bridges Other Restorative Options
Dr. Klein has invested in the latest training, technologies and materials to offer Harrisburg families dental care that is precise, comfortable and long-lasting. Our all-digital x-rays are instantaneous and reduce exposure to radiation; cone-beam scanning and 3D printing allows us to accurately measure bone density and increase the success of dental implant placement; intraoral cameras show patients exactly what’s happening inside their mouths on a big monitor; and our soft-tissue laser effectively eliminates gum disease and can even whiten your teeth.

We’ll be more than happy to answer any questions you might have in person, but before then, you can check out the helpful answers we’ve provided for our patients’ common dental inquiries.
It’s generally ideal to schedule a same-day appointment with a dentist if you have a cracked tooth or another kind of oral health issue that can be considered an emergency. Same-day appointments usually focus on identifying the underlying cause of your problem, addressing any pain you're experiencing, and creating a treatment plan.
If you would like to set up a same-day appointment with our team, please pick up the phone and give our office a call. We will ask questions in order to learn more about your situation, and we’ll do everything we can to ensure that we’re able to see you as quickly as possible. Additionally, our team will give you any first-aid tips you might need to protect your smile and manage your discomfort while you’re waiting for your emergency appointment.
Choosing the right dental practice requires careful consideration of your specific needs. For example, if you want to enhance your smile with veneers or teeth whitening, you should search for a cosmetic dentist in Harrisburg who provides those specific services. Additionally, you’ll need to consider factors such as whether the practice will take your dental insurance or if they’re located close to where you live.
Write down everything you’re looking for from a new dental practice so that you can narrow down your search to candidates that have those traits. If you find a practice that you’re interested in, read some of their online reviews to see what other patients think of them.
While the cost of a dental checkup and cleaning in the United States is often between $200 and $350, not all dental practices charge the exact same amount for their services. The geographic location of your chosen dental practice, your dental health, and your dental insurance will all affect the final price tag of your routine preventive dental visit. Don’t hesitate to speak to our team if you want to learn more about how much a given service will cost.
We’re ready to work with you to make paying for necessary dental care easier. Not only do we take dental insurance, but we offer an in-house membership plan as well as convenient financing through CareCredit and Proceed Finance. Remember, it’s better to pay for preventive care now than it is to wait to visit the dentist until a problem has already occurred. The longer dental issues go unaddressed, the more severe they grow, and the more costly they become to treat.
