Welcome to Arsenal Hill Dentistry!

Conveniently located right across the street from the Governor’s mansion in downtown Columbia SC.

Why choose Dr. Kaitlyn Rucker to be your dentist in Columbia? 

We realize that a visit to the dentist isn’t everyone’s favorite pastime, but our patient focused team is determined to make it more enjoyable. We help you feel comfortable smiling, have the best health and enjoy the foods you love. Everything we do is focused on the whole person – all of our dental solutions look naturally healthy, are functional and beautiful.

We always listen to your goals and needs before we recommend a treatment plan. We are thorough and pay attention to the smallest details so your smile reflects who you are. We believe in a doctor-patient partnership – Dr. Rucker always listens to your concerns and recommends treatments you can trust.

Dr. Rucker works very closely with one of the best dental laboratories in the southeast, which is located a few doors away from our office. The case engineers from the laboratory are available during your appointments to take custom shades, make custom changes and consult with us about materials or design. We also offer our patients cosmetic one on one consults with the laboratory ceramists.

Our Dental Services

Treatment that puts your needs first. We want you to feel safe, comfortable and excited about your dental care.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Crowns, veneers and bridges can be used to improve the appearance of stained, chipped, missing or broken down teeth. We also offer laser gum recontouring to improve a “gummy” smile or to even out different height gingival margins.

We love transforming smiles – call us to see how we can help you get the smile you’ve always wanted.

Dental Implants

Eat, speak, and smile with confidence with implant dentistry. We can renew the joy and function of broken smiles, no matter how many years have passed. 

Our team can handle all of your implant needs from single tooth replacement all the way up to “all-on-four” full arch replacement.

Laser hygiene and cold sore treatment

Laser Bacterial Reduction (LBR) enables us to destroy the bacteria that cause inflammation and periodontal disease. Cold sores are most effectively treated before they develop a crust, so call us for an appointment as soon as the sore begins to feel tingly or itchy. Laser treatment may prevent the cold sore from breaking out altogether or even from recurring in the future.

Teeth Whitening

Tooth whitening is a safe and affordable way to restore a bright, beautiful shade to your teeth. 

We offer in-office Zoom! Whitening to significantly whiten your smile in only one visit. Additionally, take home whitening trays can be made to perfectly fit your teeth and can be used with professional-strength whitening gel to maintain a bright white smile.

Clear Orthodontic Aligners

Clear Aligners are nearly invisible and provide you with discreet orthodontic treatment. These removable trays are made from transparent plastic, fit closely to your teeth and are almost invisible to the naked eye.

Ask us if you are a candidate to straighten your teeth  without braces!

Botox/Xeomin

Dr. Rucker has been trained through the American Academy of Facial Esthetics (AAFE) on facial anatomy and advanced Botox and Xeomin injection techniques. Botox is a wrinkle relaxer that is used to soften forehead lines, smile lines, crow’s feet, and can even do a “lip flip”.

Botox can also be used to hide a gummy smile, and is often used as a therapeutic treatment for TMJ disorders.

Experience dentistry differently.

No dental insurance? Join our Dental Membership plan – your alternative to overpriced dental insurance or paying out of pocket.

Our dental membership plan is a low-cost annual membership that includes all of your essential dental care at 100% coverage.

Dental care can be less expensive than you think, especially when issues are addressed early with consistent preventative care. We also offer cosmetic addons to the plan like whitening and aligners with no insurance hassles like waiting periods, deductibles, or annual maximums. Ask us which plan is right for you.
