Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  The most common oral diseases are those of the hard tissues (caries of enamel, dentine and cementum) and soft tissues and supporting bone (gingivitis, periodontitis) and are usually easily treated by a thorough dental examination and radiographs performed by a dental practitioner. However, other conditions, such as the ones asterisked below, can cause acute, recurring pain that may need the assistance of a pain management clinic.
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
• Fluoride Treatment
  Regular value of $52. Offer includes an exam, cleaning, fluoride treatment and necessary x-rays. Offer is good for each child up to age 13 in your family.
• Dental Sealants
  Although fluoride, regular brushing, and flossing lower the chance of developing cavities, these methods are not fully effective at reaching the most decay-prone areas of the teeth. The grooves and depressions on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth are still left susceptible to decay-causing bacteria and should be painted with a plastic-like coating called a sealant to prevent cavities from forming in this area.

Restorative

• Fillings
  Please call our office for more info or with any questions concerning the benefits of replacing silver amalgam fillings with more natural, tooth-colored composite fillings.
• Veneers
  Teeth bleaching whitens teeth that have been darkened with age or stained by coffee, tea or tobacco. It has over a 90% success rate and can last up to five years depending on personal habits such as smoking or drinking coffee or tea. Results can vary in certain cases like when people are taking certain medications, or have fluorosis, a condition in which there is too much fluoride present. Also, teeth whitening will not lighten fillings or other artificial materials used in dental crowns, porcelain veneers, etc. Although bleaching is tough on stains but gentle on your teeth, if you have sensitive teeth (periodontal disease) with worn enamel or if you're pregnant or breast feeding, your dentist may discourage treatment.
• Crowns
  Crowns Dental crowns, also called caps, are natural-looking covers that fit snugly over teeth to conceal cracked, badly discolored, injured, or chipped teeth. Dental crowns minimize physical discomfort and provide support for damaged teeth. Ultimately, dental crowns can improve the overall appearance of your smile while making your teeth more resistant to injury.
• Bridges

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  *Post endodontic surgery pain is severe aching pain following endodontic treatment, such as root canal therapy or apicetomy. Most patients’ pain improves over a few weeks; however, a few endodontic patients develop persistent, chronic pain.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  When you first get dentures, it takes a little time to get used to them. They may feel awkward or loose until your cheek and tongue muscles learn to hold them in place. When first getting used to dentures, you may notice slipping when you laugh, smile or cough. This is caused by air getting under the base and moving it; you will eventually be able to better control these movements once you get more practice wearing them.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Implant Bridges Would having a flawless smile increase your self-confidence? Are missing teeth preventing you from eating the foods that you love? Well, implant bridges may be the perfect solution for you. These comfortable, effective bridges—which can either be removable or fixed—fit discreetly over dental implants, allowing for maximum support.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
• Tooth Extractions
  Alveolar osteitis (“dry socket”) occurs several days after a tooth extraction when the blood does not clot well and leaves the bone and the nerve endings exposed. The pain is experienced as a deep ache in the extraction socket.
