Philosophy

Dr. Hansen and her staff approach patient care with three principal goals in mind:

They invest in a life-long relationship with the lives and individual needs of patients. They understand that comprehensive treatment extends far beyond treating teeth. Excellence in dentistry demands an approach that embraces systemic, psychological and financial health.

Dr. Hansen also fundamentally believes in the value of comprehensive care and the precision and attention to detail that can only be found in microscope-enhanced dentistry.

Finally, there can be found in every facet of Hansen & Associates a deep commitment to quality and excellence. An interview on a patient's initial visit is routine, and it allows enough time for patients to discuss personal concerns and goals in regard to their care. The comprehensive exam also allows Dr. Hansen to establish a baseline for current oral health conditions, and allows her to appropriately plan treatment for immediate and long-term objectives. These objectives include diagnosis, education, treatment and prevention of three disease states: tooth decay, periodontal (gum) disease and occlusion (the bite). A thorough evaluation of these three facets provides a solid foundational stage for developing oral health, exquisite esthetics and natural beauty.


Ampersand

am·per·sand [am-per-sand] -noun

1. a character or symbol (& or Fancy Ampersand) for and: Hansen & Associates.

Ampersand is a logogram representing the conjunction word "and". The word was adapted in the 1830's from the phrase "and per se and" meaning in itself. The symbol is a ligature of the letters et, which is Latin for the word "and".

At Hansen & Associates we feel the "&" in itself signifies the relationship with our patients, our team of specialists and each other. We are committed to guiding the highest level of long-term dental health.
