- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningDr. Ollason has invested in a suite of cutting-edge dental technologies that he uses to treat emergencies and restore smiles.

His other state-of-the-art devices include digital scanners and advanced oral cancer screening tools.

We believe each patient deserves a stunning smile and are happy to reward those who maintain their regular cleanings and exams.

As part of this visit, our dentist will perform a comprehensive examination along with a thorough professional teeth cleaning, to protect your teeth against the detrimental effects of plaque and the consequences of dental disease. For our pediatric patients, we offer dental sealants and fluoride treatments, which are proven to reduce the risk of cavities in children.

- Fillings
- Resin CompositeDental bonding can address many of the same concerns as porcelain veneers, such as chips, cracks, and discoloration. However, this process is less invasive than veneers, as it simply involves the application of a composite resin material. Dr. Ollason can use dental bonding to alter the shape, size, and color of your teeth for a more balanced, symmetrical appearance.
- VeneersVeneers Chipped, gapped, and discolored teeth can detract from an otherwise beautiful smile. With porcelain veneers, Dr. Steve Ollason can address all kinds of aesthetic concerns, improving your smile and boosting your confidence.
- CrownsDental Crowns Do you find yourself hiding your smile because of a broken or decayed tooth that also makes tasks like eating and speaking difficult? The team at New Mexico Smile Center in Albuquerque, NM, can ease discomfort and restore your smile with a porcelain dental crown.
- BridgesDental Bridges Do you struggle to eat and speak properly due to one or more consecutive missing teeth? A dental bridge can fill in the gaps to restore the function and appearance of your smile and improve your quality of life.
- Dental BondingDental bonding is a quick cosmetic dental procedure that involves applying tooth-colored resin to improve the appearance of your teeth. It's a relatively short procedure and offers a cost-effective way to fix issues like chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth. The procedure preserves the patient's natural tooth structure and is more conservative than other alternatives. However, bonded teeth will require maintenance over time.
- Restorative DentistryNot only do implants provide superior stability for your custom restoration, but they also provide much-needed stimulation to the jawbone. Implants are the only restorative dentistry procedure that is proven to stop and prevent the jawbone atrophy that occurs after tooth loss.
- Root Canal TreatmentRoot Canal Therapy An infected tooth can cause a great deal of pain. Root canal treatment to remove the infection has minimal discomfort when performed by an attentive dentist.
- Deep Cleaning
- DenturesDentures Missing teeth can be embarrassing and impact your ability to eat and speak properly. Dentures can replace several or all of your missing teeth along one or both dental arches to restore function to your smile.
- Dental ImplantsDental Implants Tooth loss can affect virtually every aspect of your life, from your nutrition and speech to your sense of self-confidence. At New Mexico Smile Center, we offer state-of-the-art dental implants to help patients with missing teeth regain a complete smile.
- Oral SurgeryDentures supported by All-on-4 implants are often an excellent option for those who lack sufficient bone density for traditional implant placement techniques. However, All-on-4 is not right for everyone. Our dentist will review your medical history to ensure that you are in good overall health and that no medical conditions could increase the risks associated with oral surgery.
- Tooth ExtractionsThere are several minor oral surgeries that can utilize sedation dentistry, including tooth extraction, root canal therapy, and dental implant placement.
- Bone GraftingAll-on-4 uses just four implants and allows patients to forgo preparatory procedures like bone grafting. With fewer implants and preparatory procedures, patients can typically expect an easier recovery.
