Services

Our staff of more than 30 dental hygienists is trained in providing preventive and periodontal procedures to maintain your oral health. Our most important concern is the comfort of our patients.
Fluoride treatments are routinely used after cleaning for children, but many adults benefit from fluoride treatment as much as, or even more than children. Active orthodontic treatment (brackets trap more plaque making teeth more likely to decay). If you have never had a cavity or have not had one for several years, eat a healthy diet low in sugar, brush 2-3 times a day and floss once a day, you do not need Fluoride Varnish.
It is estimated that approximately 80% of Americans suffer from Recurrent Apthous Ulcers also known as "canker sores." Outbreaks of these oral ulcerations can range from mildly annoying to extremely painful and life-altering. Contrary to popular belief, canker sores are not caused by the same virus as cold sores, nor are they contagious.
Research has shown that up to 80% of Americans have been exposed to and up to 33% have routine outbreaks of Recurrent Herpes Labialis, also known as "cold sores." Cold sores are a virus that remains dormant or inactive with in nerve ganglia (tissue) and becomes activated by certain triggers. Outbreaks tend to last around two weeks, can be painful, and are often temporarily disfiguring.

I used to like this place b/c Dr. Elcano is amazing but trying to get in for a sedated procedure is like pulling teeth (no pun intended). Had to wait forever just to get in for a consult (even had to resort to getting a friend that works there to get things moving for me to even get the consult set up). I get to the consult, told I will be called within a week to schedule the procedure.that was 3.5 weeks ago and, no surprise, no one called me. I really like my general dentist but the sedation procedures team is just. no.

I am someone who has had horrendous dental experiences which has caused me to have a lot of anxiety as an adult with dental procedures. Dr. Sterner not only did an absolute PERFECT job with my broken front tooth making it look better than it did originally, but she did it all with compassion. She explained every step to me and was patient with my hesitations.
All of the dental hygienists, techs, and other staff working with Dr. Sterner are fabulous as well. Lisa sat with me for a majority of my appointment talking me through everything and supporting me.

I've been a patient at Racine Dental Group for over 30 years, and have been very satisfied with the quality of care I received and with the professional way in which the services were delivered. You too can expect to be treated with respect and professionalism regardless of which dentist and/or hygienist you choose.

The staff at Racine Dental are fabulous! Professional, compassionate, kind, friendly, and really make you feel welcomed. Very educating staff as well. They really make you understand how and why certain things happen with any dental issues you may have. They also give you advice about what to do to improve your dental health and literally explain how it improves it in detail. Love it!

I imagine it's rare to look forward to dental appointments, but Dr. Waldau and my dental hygienist Betty, make the trip fun. I very much enjoy talking to the staff and everyone is friendly and knowledgeable. I happened to have an appointment the week of Christmas this year. The office was decorated beautifully and the staff were dressed in holiday costumes (including the dentist). I had a great time. Oh, and they take great care of my teeth too! I'm glad I found this office for my family.

Dr Cruthers and his team were so efficient and friendly. Amanda and Dr Cruthers always went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and gave me the confidence I needed all the way from start to aftercare. Dr Cruthers and Amanda listed to me and gave me more then I wanted in my smile. The Six Month Smile ( braces) were pain free and easy to manage.
My teeth were straightened and corrected in 6 months. I am 100% satisfied and would refer any and all family and friends to Dr Cruthers and his team for all dental care needs. Thank you so much for everything.
