Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
• X-rays

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning

Restorative

• Crowns
  Since the teeth, jaw joints and muscles can all be involved, treatment for this condition varies. Typically, treatment will involve several phases. The first goal is to relieve the muscle spasm and pain. Then, your dentist must correct the way the teeth fit together. Often a temporary device (known as an orthotic, or "splint") is worn over the teeth until the bite is stabilized. Permanent correction may involve selective re-shaping of the teeth, building crowns on the teeth, orthodontics, or a permanent appliance to lay over the teeth. If the jaw joint itself is damaged, it must be specifically treated. Though infrequent, surgery is sometimes required to correct a damaged joint. Ultimately, your dentist will stabilize your bite so that the teeth, muscles and joints all work together without strain.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
• Bone Grafting
  During this procedure, a few small incisions are made, and an antibiotic saturated bone-grafting material is placed under the gums. The graft is placed over the areas where the bone needs to be softened. This allows for easy tooth movement. The newly formed supporting bone will aid in holding the straightened teeth.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  Shokri Wahib, DDS and Alexander Lambrinides DDS have 30 years of combined experience in the dental field, with over 1500 hours of post graduate education in head, neck and facial pain, dental sleep medicine and orthodontics.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  We are a state-of-the-art practice providing a full range of orthodontic services - including early orthodontic treatment, braces, adult orthodontics, Invisalign, and TMJ treatment.
• Braces
  Phase II treatment - to include the use of braces - is usually started after a time that elapses between the two phases. During this time, all of the adult teeth emerge and adult growth occurs. If both Phase I and Phase II treatment are required, each Phase necessitates a separate set of x-rays, photos and models, as well as a separate treatment plan and fees.
