Cadenza Family Dentistry

Cadenza Family Dentistry is a distinguished dental practice located in Holladay, UT, led by Dr. Cindy Sumarauw, DDS, MAGD. The practice is built on a foundation of comprehensive dental care, focusing on both the immediate needs and long-term oral health goals of its patients. Dr. Sumarauw established Cadenza Family Dentistry in October 2001, drawing inspiration from the musical term "cadenza" to represent a soloist's virtuoso performance, akin to the solo dental practice she envisioned. The clinic offers a broad spectrum of dental services, encompassing general, cosmetic, restorative, and specialized treatments. This includes routine preventive care like cleanings, fluoride treatments, and oral cancer screenings, as well as advanced restorative procedures such as tooth-colored fillings, crowns and bridges (often completed in a single visit with CEREC technology), and full or partial dentures. Cadenza Family Dentistry is highly regarded for its orthodontic offerings, providing various options like traditional braces, Invisalign, Six Month Smiles, Cfast Smiles, and other aligner systems. They are also proficient in dental implant procedures, including implant overdentures and bone grafting, utilizing different implant brands such as Bicon, Nobel Biocare, and Ankylos. Cosmetic dentistry is a significant focus, with services ranging from KOR Whitening and porcelain veneers to composite bonding and complete smile makeovers. The practice also provides extensive periodontal (gum) care, including scaling and root planing, laser treatments with Waterlase MD for gingivectomy and crown lengthening, and various medicament applications for gum health. Dr. Sumarauw is notable for being one of the few female dentists in Utah with a Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD), the highest professional designation in the AGD. She is also recognized for her use of advanced technology, including the Waterlase MD Erbium Laser Machine, which allows for comfortable, drill-free fillings and various soft tissue procedures. Other technologies include digital X-rays, intra-oral cameras, and CEREC CAD/CAM for same-day crowns. Patient comfort and education are paramount at Cadenza Family Dentistry. They offer various sedation options, including conscious sedation with Valium or Xanax, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation with a nurse anesthetist, to help anxious patients feel at ease. The practice emphasizes listening to patients' concerns, understanding their dental history, and collaborating on personalized treatment plans. They aim to empower patients to take control of their oral health, believing that a well-informed community with healthy masticatory function contributes to lasting beauty beyond just aesthetics.
