Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  If any level of periodontal disease is diagnosed in your regular dental exam and hygiene visit, we will recommend a course of perio therapy for you.
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
  He will do a comprehensive dental exam, an oral cancer screening, and then determine what type of hygiene appointment you will need. The doctor will also develop an individualized treatment plan for you and then go over it with you in a consultation. Together you will prioritize the plan, including any immediate issues that need to be addressed.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  You may think that regular hygiene appointments are just simple and routine teeth cleanings, teeth polishings and exams. But they’re far more important than that for both children and adults.
• Fluoride Treatment
  Fluoride treatment is the single most important thing that you can do to help your child keep their teeth for a lifetime. Fluoride supplements and regular professional fluoride treatments in the dental office will reduce dental decay by 50-70%. Fluoride is one of the most researched subjects there is. It works and it is safe. We have the research to back this up. Ask us.
• Dental Sealants
  Sealants are available to children at the age of 7. Made of tooth-colored resin, sealants are barriers that are placed on the chewing surfaces of molars, protecting them from decay-causing bacteria.

Restorative

• Fillings
  Silver-amalgam fillings have been used for the last 100 years. They have saved literally millions of teeth. While their benefit cannot be underestimated, current research and technology have shown a better alternative.
• Resin Composite
  At Jackson Creek Dental Group, in Jackson, CA, we use only white fillings to restore teeth to health and appearance. Safer, more attractive alternatives to silver-mercury, these fillings, made of composite resin, virtually disappear in the teeth, creating a natural-looking smile.
• Veneers
  Are you unhappy with the appearance of your smile? Are your teeth crooked? Are there gaps between your teeth? Do you want a beautiful smile, but just can’t afford porcelain veneers?
• Crowns
  For a number of years Dr. Ask, along with his partners, taught a group practice management seminar at their alma mater.  He has lectured for his peers on a number of occasions, on “Opening the Vertical Dimension, Made Simple”, along with authoring an article on the same subject.  The last time was a full day course to 158 dentists, students, and instructors at Loma Linda University School of Dentistry.  He has taught “Biblical Financial Small Group Study” seminars and was the Crown Financial Ministries director at his church.
• Bridges
  Allowing for opening the deep dental bite for properly placing and aligning crowns and bridges for adults with worn, overclosed bites.
• Dental Bonding
  Tooth bonding is a method of restoring decayed teeth, making cosmetic improvements, changing the color of teeth or reshaping teeth with a composite resin filling. Bonding is an ideal solution for lightening any stains, closing minor gaps and correcting crooked teeth.
• Restorative Dentistry
  The entire process only takes two, short, painless visits. It is great for those who want to have a beautiful, confidence-building smile but can’t immediately commit to more involved restorative treatment for medical or anxiety reasons. It is also available to those who may have current budget limitations and are looking for short-term affordable solutions that will allow them to proceed down the road with more extensive restorative dentistry at their own financial pace.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  Endodontics is the area of dental science that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the dental pulp. The most common procedure of endodontics is root canal therapy.

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  “Dr. Ask did a tremendous job on my smile. (Oh, by the way I have a full set of dentures). New dentures were made that gave me the more natural look instead of the humdrum every day looking dentures. I can now smile and laugh with confidence.”

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Accurate diagnosis. Precise treatment plans. Excellent results. These are just a few of the benefits provided by our CT Scanner technology. The CT Scanner produces high-definition 3-D images that allow us to accurately diagnose and treat many dental conditions, from planning and placing implants to diagnosing and treating periodontal disease.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  During the course of his dental training, Dr. Kinzer received numerous awards including the Omnicron Kappa Upsilon award, which is the highest award a dental student can attain.

• Braces

When my braces finally came off, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Dr. Ask had transformed my crooked, spacious teeth into the most beautiful smile I had ever seen.”
