Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  Regular dental exams, professional cleanings, and good oral hygiene practices at home are essential to detecting and strategically managing periodontitis.
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
  Every time we provide care, we're observing many different aspects of your overall health. Most people are surprised at the large amount of surface area that lines the mouth. While this lining repairs itself quickly, it is susceptible to changes that may require monitoring or further evaluation.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  Periodic dental cleanings at Marshall Dental keep your dental health on track. Discover the benefits of optimal care & regular check-ups.
• Dental Sealants
  Sealants give us a tool that can dramatically reduce the number of fillings placed in permanent teeth during critical stages of growth and development. On the chewing surface of molars, deep grooves reach into the center of the teeth. Under a microscope, these crevices might look like a deep canyon. In fact, most of them are narrower than a single toothbrush bristle but wide enough for bacteria to hide. It's easy to see how cavities can form in such a perfect hideout.

Restorative

• Fillings
• Veneers
  Veneers display the ultimate in dental art and science, handcrafted and customized to fit your smile. Like a contact lens, these paper-thin pieces of porcelain bond to the outside of your natural teeth. But don't be fooled by the thin characteristics of this material. Many unique features can be incorporated into the ceramics, replicating any look you want to create.
• Crowns
  Modern anesthetics provide powerful numbing for gentle removal of the inflamed nerve inside the tooth. The nerve canal undergoes disinfection and careful shaping, and a sealer fills the internal space. A filling or crown over the tooth helps return the tooth to its original condition.
• Bridges
  Whenever you cruise across a bridge over the water, you're being supported by the same principles that hold a dental bridge. Critical stabilization on each side helps bear the load, year after year. Teeth on either side of a space support a replacement tooth engineered from durable materials and glued into place. While this often serves for many years, the load-bearing teeth may deteriorate after thousands of chewing cycles. In some cases, this leads to more missing teeth.
• Dental Bonding
• Restorative Dentistry
  We know it's not always easy for you to sort through the complicated possibilities. Dr. Marshall's background in restorative dentistry allow them to develop solutions for every scenario.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  A deep cavity can give bacteria access to the inner nerve bundle. A crack extending into the same region can create stress that will need additional care to relieve. In some cases, a significant infection may develop in your jaw without any symptoms at all. If Dr. Marshall determines that the nerve won't recover or infection is present, then root canal treatment may be suggested.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is the most common adult dental affliction. About 30% of the population experiences gum disease, and it's the number one cause of tooth loss in adults. Many denture cases begin as a result of the ravages of this condition. While not curable, it is controllable. But it requires a focused strategy, similar to managing other chronic conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  When it's time to replace missing teeth, whether it's one or a full set, several options might be available to you. Dental implants often give you the best opportunity to enjoy normal chewing and a full smile, although all therapeutic possibilities deserve consideration.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  Despite your best efforts, teeth sometimes need to be removed to protect your health. When we've discussed all other possibilities and you've decided on extraction, we'll take every step to help you. Your well-being always takes priority in any treatment decision. Some patients prefer sedation to help with oral surgery, and we can include medicated options into your plan. Regardless, we take every measure to make even minor surgical procedures as comfortable as possible.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  A variety of tooth and jaw issues open up the door to orthodontics in a growing child. Dr. Marshall may point out that your child's baby teeth appear crowded, or the relationship between the jaws isn't ideal. While not generally the time for treatment, it may help you prepare for the possibility of future corrective care. As permanent teeth start to appear, usually around age 6, Dr. Marshall monitors the process further and helps you decide if early orthodontic treatment makes sense.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  We treat everything from your entire family’s checkups to fillings, crowns, dentures, and Invisalign. We even offer a special in-office whitening treatment called Smile Perfected.
• Braces
  Although the majority of cases involve teenagers, braces can play a role for some kids in their earlier years. Since permanent teeth are typically larger than baby teeth, space may need to be opened with the gentle force of braces. This allows teeth to move into place properly, helping avoid more extensive treatment later.

General

• Teeth Whitening
  Sometimes a new smile emerges from the simplest steps. Teeth whitening removes years of dingy stains from your teeth. Coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and chocolate dull white enamel surfaces. A brilliant boost along with some gentle polishing and reshaping of chipped, uneven edges can create an easy transformation. Simple and safe, most patients don't realize how much discoloration embeds into their teeth until they see a new shine emerge.
• Cosmetic Dentistry
  Smiles matter, probably more than we realize. Volumes of research confirm the influential role of smiles on our relationships and our self-esteem. If you're confident, you smile more. If you smile more, you feel more confident. But what if you don't want to flash your smile because you're embarrassed by bad teeth? It becomes a psychological short-circuit, with effects that may ripple through your life. Fortunately, a growing range of options opens doors for anyone to enjoy a stunning new smile. And Dr. Marshall's passion for enhancing smiles brings you the best in modern dentistry.
• General Dentistry
  Dr. Marshall is trained in all the fields of general dentistry, as well as the placement and restoration of dental implants, treatment of patients with special needs, and managing medically compromised patients. Upon completion of his general practice residency, Dr. Marshall entered private practice as a general dentist in Stow, Ohio where his practice emphasized comprehensive treatment.
