Oral health maintenance procedures:
Regular dental check-ups:
This will help keep your teeth and smile healthy and help to prevent tooth decay, plaque build up and gum disease. Our check-ups include an oral health evaluation, tooth polishing and removal of tartar and plaque.
Treating a tooth with decay:
We will fill and restore a decayed tooth and return it to its normal function and shape. Decay will be removed; the tooth will be cleaned and then filled with a composite resin that closely matches the color of the tooth.
Deep decay or other structural issues might require a crown. Crowns will be porcelain, gold or composite material and designed to closely match the color and style of your other teeth.
Restorative dental procedures
Tooth whitening: We will work to remove stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, aging or other causes.
Dental crowns: Based on the level of tooth damage we might recommend a crown as a more permanent solution. We can bond the crown to your own tooth or to an implant in order to improve the look, alignment, and strength of your teeth.
Dental implant crowns: After a dental implant has been placed and healed, we will insert a dental crown on the implant to replace the missing tooth. We will design this crown to match your current teeth functionally and visually.
Porcelain veneers: We offer custom made veneers designed to enhance the color, shape, size, or length of your teeth and improve your smile.
Bonding: We can restore teeth that might be decayed, fractured or discolored by applying a tooth color resin to improve your appearance and smile.
Invisalign: As an alternative to traditional braces, we offer a clear-aligner treatment. This treatment utilizes a transparent, plastic and removable orthodontic device that provides an alternative to conventional dental braces used to adjust teeth.
Night guards: If you grind your teeth at night or during the day, a night guard might be recommended. A night guard customized for your mouth reduces stress on your teeth and jaw.
Bone grafting: We can help restore bone lost due to periodontal disease by making a small incision into the gum and adding grafting material which allows new bone to grow organically.
Bridges: We can develop and apply bridges to restore a gap caused by missing teeth. They are made to be permanent by cementing or bonding the artificial tooth in the bridge to natural teeth, teeth prepared with crowns, or implants next to the space filled by the bridge.
Removable partial denture/dentures: A removeable partial denture or dentures can be developed and used as an alternative to replace a missing tooth or teeth.
Tooth removal: We can perform tooth extractions or removals to alleviate issues like decay, excessive pain, trauma or a crowded mouth. This in-office procedure can be done as part of a treatment plan to enhance oral health.
