Specialty Services

Dr. Sutton has more than two decades of experience providing sedation dentistry, so even patients who have avoided care for years can sit through longer appointments with ease.
Why Bodega Bay Patients Choose Our Office
Patients from the Sonoma Coast consistently choose Santa Rosa Dentistry and Implant Center for several reasons.
Experience You Can Trust
Dr. Wayne Sutton earned his DDS from UCSF School of Dentistry and completed postgraduate training at The Pacific Aesthetic Continuum and the Hornbrook Group. He holds fellowships from the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD), the American Academy of Cosmetic Esthetics (FACE), and the American Dental Implant Association (FADIA), and he is a licensed sedation dentist (FDOCS). With over 25 years in practice and decades of sedation experience, Dr. Sutton handles complex procedures like full mouth reconstructions right here, not at a specialist’s office an hour away. Many patients have been with the practice for years.
Modern Technology, Comfortable Care
We use 3-D digital x-rays for precise diagnostics with minimal radiation exposure. For patients with dental anxiety, our relaxing sedation options range from mild oral sedation to deeper sedation, so you can settle into a warm blanket, listen to music, and finish treatment without the white-knuckle tension some people associate with the dental chair.
One Office, Many Services
Rather than bouncing between a general dentist, implant specialist, and cosmetic provider, you can complete most treatments under one roof at Santa Rosa Dentistry and Implant Center. This saves Bodega Bay residents multiple trips over the Coast Range.
Flexible Payment Options
We work with most major dental insurance plans and offer financing to help make treatment accessible. Our team explains costs upfront so there are no surprises.
A Caring Positive Experience
From your first phone call to your follow-up appointments, our team treats you like a neighbor, not a number.
