Dental Sealants

As a part of Preventative Care for younger patients, Dental sealants are done on six and twelve-year molars in children to protect those teeth from cavities.

Composite Fillings

Composite restorations are white-colored fillings performed to repair teeth that have minor cavities or small chips/fractures. We have different shades to match any area of the mouth in order to create a natural look! Our office does not perform any fillings with silver mercury amalgam.


Dental Crowns/Bridges

When a tooth has a very large existing filling that is wearing down, or if a larger fracture of a tooth occurs, replacement with a new filling may not be feasible. The new filling will be highly susceptible to fracturing again due to the lack of tooth structure to hold the filling in. This often occurs READ MORE

Veneers

Veneers are very similar to crowns, except it only goes on the front side of the tooth. Veneers can be done for patients looking to change the way their front teeth or smile look. It can be used to close small gaps between front teeth as well.

Complete & Partial Dentures

A complete denture is a removal appliance that is fabricated to replace all the teeth in an arch (upper or lower). A partial denture is created to replace some missing teeth in an arch (the missing teeth do not have to be next to each other). Removable dentures are a great way to replace many lost teeth with one appliance.


Dental Extractions

In some cases, a tooth may fracture in such a way that may not be fixable. The only option for the tooth may be extraction. Deep cavities that involve too much of the tooth to properly restore can also require extraction.

Comprehensive Orthodontics

We believe that tooth position at an early age plays a large role in the development of teeth, facial profile, and overall physical and mental health. We offer comprehensive orthodontics, from traditional braces to READ MORE

Teeth Whitening

Dental Cleanings

In patients with normal periodontal support around their teeth and with no evidence of bone loss, a traditional dental cleaning is performed at your recall visits. In a dental cleaning, our hygienist will clean/scale around all surfaces of your teeth with both an ultrasonic scaler (for more resilient tartar) and with hand instruments. The hygienist will also polish your teeth with a paste, floss, and review homecare.

Periodontal Scaling & Root Planing

In some patients, there may be evidence of bone loss around the teeth. This occurs due to a condition known as periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is an infection where tartar and bacteria are accumulating below your gumline in areas that cannot be reached by floss/toothbrush. This can aggravate the bone surrounding your teeth READ MORE
