- Dental ExaminationWe recommend twice-annual appointments for a cleaning and exam. During your cleaning, our dental hygienist will remove plaque and tartar from your teeth, evaluate the health of your gums. The dentist will then perform a thorough examination to determine if there is decay present, bone or soft tissue pathology, occlusion or TMJ issues, screen for oral cancer, as well as addressing each patient’s chief concern. Your dentist will construct a treatment plan and explain those recommendations in detail.
- X-raysRecent advancements within the field of dentistry make it easier than ever to gain a comprehensive understanding of your dental needs. We have 3D cone beam imaging, showing much more than traditional dental X-rays. Additionally, we have a laser to keep treatments quick. We’re the only Greensboro dentist utilizing a MicrO2
- Teeth CleaningPreventative dentistry is crucial to your oral health. For instance, staying proactive with your dental health will avoid serious and expensive-to-fix issues down the road. Missing teeth, root canals, and more are easily avoidable with at-home care and regular check-ups. While engaging in excellent at-home oral hygiene techniques is essential, your teeth require professional assistance as well. Preventative dentistry helps patients do what they can’t at home. It starts with semi-annual dental cleanings and continues through a lifetime of dental care.
- Fluoride TreatmentFortunately, parents have plenty of items in their toolbox to prevent cavities and tooth decay. The fluoride treatments that we provide at our office will go a long way toward preventing cavities during childhood.
- Dental SealantsSealants are placed to protect the deep grooves and fissures found in molars that even a tooth brush bristle can be too wide to properly clean. Sealants can prevent food from sticking in these grooves and causing potential cavities. The procedure is simple and painless and incredibly helpful for our younger patients.
- Fillings
- VeneersPorcelain veneers are custom-fitted “shells” that are applied and bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth in your smile “zone.” They are used to cosmetically correct teeth that are crooked or misshapen or to cover up gaps, stains and chips in your teeth. Porcelain veneers are not only aesthetically pleasing, they’re functional because they protect your damaged teeth.
- CrownsDental crowns are caps used to cover damaged teeth. Typically composed of porcelain or metal, these dental tools help patients who have suffered from cavities or tooth decay that expose them to other issues or pain. They are aesthetically-pleasing and easy to place.
- BridgesBridges are an option for replacing a missing tooth or a few missing teeth. The bridge is matched to the color of your teeth and then cemented into place to provide a permanent solution to your missing tooth dilemma!
- Dental BondingBonding is a simple procedure that makes a noticeable difference in the appearance of a smile. We can complete it in just one visit, making it a preferable option for many patients.

- Root Canal TreatmentSome – but not all treatment may be uncomfortable. Sedation dentistry is particularly useful when performing extractions or root canals.
- DenturesDentures are the final option we offer to patients with missing teeth. Typically, we reserve the use of dentures for patients with many missing teeth instead of just one or two because they are a whole-mouth solution. Some dentures can be held in place with implants for improved retention and chewing function.
- Dental ImplantsThere are several options available to patients with missing teeth. Which one you choose will depend on a variety of factors, including your budget. Implants can be more time-consuming than other methods, but they are incredibly durable and restore full functionality to your mouth.

- Tooth Extractions
- OrthodonticsOrthodontics achieves two goals. First, the practice improves the appearance of your smile by closing gaps and aligning teeth. While how your smile looks is important, your teeth’s ability to bite and chew is more important. When your teeth overcrowd or align poorly, it challenges the health of your mouth. Correcting the alignment and closing gaps is the only way to secure a healthy bite and less interference while chewing food and speaking. One of the common side effects of ignoring these issues is a temporomandibular joint disorder, which results in popping noises and even pain.
- BracesSometimes, the oldest and most traditional orthodontic method is the best. Our top-of-the-line metal braces can treat overcrowding and can be less expensive than invisible aligners. We have a range of color options for brackets and elastics and our hygienists are experts in consulting you on how to take care for your braces properly.
