Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  The first step in any smile makeover is a thorough dental examination to make sure that your cosmetic problems really are just that, and not a sign of underlying dental disease. Once your health has been established, your smile can be cosmetically enhanced in a variety of ways.
• X-rays
  Digital X-Rays. Diagnostic x-rays have long been invaluable to dentistry. The emergence of digital technology in the past decade, however, has made dental x-rays safer and even more useful. Digital technology cuts radiation exposure to patients by as much as 90% over traditional x-rays. And there are other advantages including the elimination of waiting time for pictures to develop, and sharper images that can be enhanced instantly to show detail.
• Oral Cancer Screening
  Cancer screenings help detect pre- cancerous changes in the oral tissues at a stage when they can be more successfully treated. If cancer is not found early, tumors may grow deep into local tissues and spread to lymph glands in the neck. When tumors invade lymph glands, there is less of a chance for an effective treatment. Early detection is the key!

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  What does good oral hygiene mean to you: Flashing a pearly-white smile? Having fresh smelling breath? Feeling that squeaky-clean sensation all around your teeth and tongue? All of these are important indicators about the state of your oral health — and they're often the first thing people notice when they meet you. But getting your teeth, gums and mouth really clean, and maintaining that healthy state throughout the day (and in the months between professional dental cleanings) can be challenging.
• Fluoride Treatment
• Dental Sealants
  A plastic coating can be applied at the dental office to prevent cavities by sealing the little grooves on the chewing surfaces of back teeth known as “pits and fissures.†These little crevices become the perfect environments for decay-causing bacteria. Immature tooth enamel is more permeable and therefore less resistant to tooth decay. Dental sealants are easy to apply and provide years of protection

Restorative

• Fillings
• Veneers
  In addition to our mission to bypass the drilling and grinding methods of traditional dentistry, we not only provide no-prep veneer and other noninvasive options, but also use rinses that promote enamel growth and reverse cavities, eliminating the need for drilling. When children regularly visit for checkups, we are able to easily detect the early stages of a cavity, treat it and prevent the need for an invasive dental procedure.
• Crowns
  For one thing, primary teeth guide the eruption of permanent (adult) teeth, holding the space into which these new teeth will erupt. The crowns (tops) of the permanent teeth actually push against the roots of the baby teeth, causing them to resorb, or melt away. In this way, the adult teeth can take their proper place.
• Bridges
• Dental Bonding
  If you are ready to proceed with your comprehensive or cosmetic dentistry treatment, the treatment could possibly commence the very next day. Friday, and also Saturday if required, will be solely devoted to your dental needs. A final check of our beautiful temporary restorations will be done before your departure. During your next appointment, which typically follows 4-5 weeks later, your permanent restorations will be placed in one day. We like to follow up on this visit one or two days later with a final check and after photos. Some Cosmetic Bonding cases can be completed in just one visit to Atlanta.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  Endodontics is the dental specialty that deals with tissues and structures located inside the tooth. One of the most common endodontic treatments is root canal therapy, a procedure which effectively eases the pain associated with a bacterial infection deep within the pulp of the tooth. Of course, root canal treatment doesn't just relieve pain — it also stops the infection by removing dead and dying tissue from the tooth's pulp. Plus, it helps to save the tooth, which is in danger of being lost if left untreated.

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning
  Scaling and Root Planing. These deep-cleaning techniques are the best starting point to control gum disease. Plaque and calculus (tartar) are removed from beneath the gum tissues, using hand scalers and/or ultrasonic instruments.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Both bridges and partial dentures replace missing teeth. A bridge is permanently attached to abutment teeth or, in some cases, implants. A partial denture is attached by clasps to the teeth and is easily removed by the patient. Patients are usually more satisfied with bridges than with partial dentures.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Of all the ways modern dentistry has to replace missing teeth, dental implants are by far the best. There is no tooth-replacement option that will give you a longer-lasting result. Implants also help preserve tooth-supporting bone that naturally deteriorates when a tooth is lost. Loss of bone is one of the major hidden consequences of losing teeth.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  Oral surgery procedures may be performed to relieve pain, treat an infection or trauma, restore function or improve a person's appearance. Procedures and conditions treated include...
• Jaw Surgery
  Corrective Jaw Surgery. Sometimes a person's jaws don't fit together properly. This can affect both jaw function and appearance.
• Gum Surgery
  Laser Diagnosis and Treatment. They're inside DVD players and scanner wands — and now, they are making their dental debut. Lasers are being used to detect tiny spots of tooth decay, treat gum disease, and remove cancerous cells in the mouth. They are also employed in gum surgery... even cavity treatments!
• Tooth Extractions
  In some cases, the best course of action for a dental emergency may be to extract a tooth. Our dentists will take the time to evaluate your situation and discuss all available options with you so that you can make an informed decision. In cases where tooth extraction is necessary, we offer patients options for temporary or permanent tooth filling to ensure your smile remains healthy and functional.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  The amazing thing about orthodontics is that it harnesses the body's natural ability to remodel its own tissue. With the application of light, constant force, orthodontic appliances gently reshape bone and move teeth into better positions. Some examples of these appliances are traditional metal braces, inconspicuous clear or tooth-colored braces, and clear aligners, a relatively new option for adults and teens.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that utilizes a series of clear, custom-made aligners. Made from smooth, comfortable plastic, these aligners gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions over time. This virtually invisible treatment allows you to straighten your teeth without drawing attention to your smile.
• Braces
  To correct bite problems, teeth need to be moved — but doing that isn't as hard as you might think! Teeth aren't fixed rigidly in their supporting bone; instead, they're held in place by a hammock-like structure called the periodontal ligament, which is very responsive to forces placed on the teeth. Orthodontic appliances move teeth by careful application of light, constant pressure. This force can be applied via metal wires that run through small brackets attached to the teeth (braces), or via the semi-rigid plastic of clear aligners.

General

• Teeth Whitening
  Teeth whitening done in a professional dental setting is a safe, effective way to brighten your smile. It's also perhaps the most economical cosmetic dental procedure. Depending on the whitening method you choose, results can be dramatic: in-office whitening, for example, can lighten teeth three to eight shades in a single hour.
• Cosmetic Dentistry
  Dr. Fabiola’s primary focus is on comprehensive esthetic restorative and cosmetic dentistry. Part of her advanced training is achieved through The Pankey Institute, one of the country's premier centers for post-graduate dental education.
• General Dentistry
  We are a team of highly skilled, experienced, and talented cosmetic dentists. That’s a given. What sets us apart is that after we finish your smile, we still want to see you around for your continuing care appointments and general dentistry needs. So many dentists get to a point where they want to do the “big time†procedures and that’s it. They don’t want to be bothered with seeing you for check-ups or fillings — or heaven forbid — seeing your kids!
