OUR PROCEDURES

• Preventive Dentistry and Cleaning

  We all know that good oral hygiene keeps your teeth looking clean and shiny, but did you know that it's also essential to your overall health? It's true, poor oral hygiene can lead to a variety of dental and medical problems such as gum disease, infection, heart disease, stroke and even diabetes.
  
  That's why dentist recommend that teeth be cleaned professionally twice a year. Teeth cleaning is the removal of dental plaque and tartar in order to prevent cavities, gingivitis and gum disease. The average dental cleaning is a routine procedure that is rarely painful and takes 30 to 45 minutes.

• Cosmetic Dentistry

  We offer a full range of cosmetic dentistry including:

  • - Dental Bonding, Veneers
  • - Professional Whitening
  • - "Tooth-Colored" Fillings
• Dental Bridges

  Having one or more missing teeth can have a serious effect not only on your smile, but also on your dental health. Specifically, missing teeth can cause:

  • - A shift in the alignment of your teeth
  • - Increased risk of periodontal disease and tooth decay
  • - Loss of adjacent teeth
  • - Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ)

  Dental Bridges are one way of replacing missing teeth. They literally "bridge" the gap of an empty tooth space. The procedure of installing a dental bridge is typically completed in 2 visits.

• Crowns

  Depending on the type of treatment you have received for your dental problem, it might be necessary to:

  • - Have your tooth restored to it's original size and shape
  • - Supply additional physical support for the treated tooth
  • - Get a complete "makeover" of the affected tooth

  For cases like these, a crown is the most logical option. Crowns completely cover every visible part of the tooth - which is why they sometimes referred to as "caps." A part of your tooth remains but is essentially "rebuilt" to resemble the tooth.

• Root Canal

  Within the walls of every tooth is a strand of dental pulp - the substance that supplies the tooth with nerves, nutrients and vessels. If the dental pulp becomes diseased, in some cases it is necessary to remove the dental pulp to effectively protect and save the tooth. Root canals remove the diseased pulp, clean the walls of the tooth and seal it from further infection.

• Dental Bonding

  A quick and affordable way to correct a variety of dental flaws such as:

  • - Cracks
  • - Discoloration
  • - Gaps
• Implant Crowns

  An implant crown is the second piece of a dental implant. The crown is the tooth- looking portion placed over the implant. Significantly stronger than bridges or dentures, an implant offers a single and permanent solution to a lost tooth.

• Teeth Whitening

  Many people associate professional teeth whitening with movie stars and bridges - but in fact, it is the most popular procedure in the cosmetic dentistry. Stained and discolored teeth are very common among adults of all ages, and come from a variety of sources, such as:

  • - Coffee, Tea, Soda, Red Wine
  • - Tobacco
  • - Some Medications

  Whether you choose an in-office or at-home procedure, you can achieve a whiter, brighter smile with our help!

• Veneers

  Veneers are thin, custom made casings that cover the front side of your teeth. They are used to correct uneven teeth, worn enamel, discoloration, chipped teeth and irregular spacing. Veneers can give your teeth a more natural, aesthetically pleasing appearance and are stain resistant.

• Dentures

  Another way of replacing missing teeth is by complete dentures or removable partial dentures. They are recommended only when there are multiple teeth missing.
