- Dental ExaminationOver-the-counter mouth rinses can help to fight bad breath, remove loose food particles after brushing, and freshen the mouth. However, mouth rinses are never a substitute for brushing, flossing, or regular dental examinations, and may disguise warning signs of periodontal disease.

- Teeth CleaningRegular dental cleanings, performed by a registered dental hygienist, are a crucial part of preventive dental care. By removing plaque and tartar, your oral health is enhanced and your risk of gingivitis and periodontal disease are reduced. Your dental hygienist will utilize manual instruments to remove moderate plaque and tartar buildup, or an ultrasonic device to scale away heavier buildup. The cleaning is finished with polishing, a pleasant procedure that cleans the surface of teeth, removes stains, and leaves the mouth feeling clean and refreshed.
- Fluoride Treatment
- Dental SealantsDental sealants are thin plastic coatings that are applied to the grooves on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. They fill in the crevasses there, keeping out food particles that could get caught in the teeth and cause cavities. The application is fast and comfortable and can effectively protect teeth for many years.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeYour dentist will remove all areas of decay, and replace with a filling made of composite resin. Composite resin fillings have surged in popularity because their appearance perfectly matches the natural appearance of teeth.
- VeneersTeeth that are chipped, discolored, uneven, stained, gapped, out-of-proportion in relation to the mouth, crooked or worn are reasons to consider veneers.
- CrownsHad several cracked teeth and had to get a filling and crown. Appointment was for cleaning, but they worked me in to get filling and temporary crown done same afternoon. Not cheap procedure for a crown. I’m happy though with customer service and staff treated me nicely!
- BridgesYou should consider a fixed bridge if you experience difficulty chewing and speaking, dental shifts, or have an undesirable sunken facial appearance due to missing a tooth or several teeth. In addition, missing teeth can eventually lead to jaw and joint problems that are costly to treat.
- Dental BondingPorcelain veneers, inlays, dental bonding, tooth contouring and reshaping, crowns, teeth whitening, dental bridges and tooth-colored fillings
- Restorative DentistryAlmost everyone will experience tooth decay at some point in his or her life. Swift detection and correction of tooth decay can minimize the significant expenses and inconveniences associated with more serious problems caused by tooth decay. Restorative dentistry treats all phases of tooth decay, from simple cavity fillings to entire tooth replacements.
- Root Canal TreatmentMy family an I come to Lenox village dentistry for years now. We Love Nicole our hygienist. So caring and makes our smile the best it can be. The dentist here are good and caring. I've had root canals and a permanent bridge an crowns, done here. Wonderful work. When you find a good dentist keep them. Lenox village is ours ! Happy Holidays. ?
- Deep CleaningPeriodontitis will require more aggressive treatment. A deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) may be recommended which involves the removal of plaque/calculus below the gums. For your comfort, local anesthesia is used and the procedure is broken up into 2 (or more) visits for the deep cleaning itself and a final polish visit where we remove any residual stain and check for persistent areas of inflammation.
- DenturesYou should consider getting implant dentures if you have loose or poorly fit dentures. Loose dentures can make eating difficult and they can also cause painful sore spots on the gums as they slide around while chewing.
- Dental ImplantsImplants offer stability because they fuse to your bone. Integration of the implants into your jaw also helps your replacement teeth feel more natural and some people also find the secure fit more comfortable than conventional substitutes.
- Oral Surgery
- Tooth ExtractionsModern dentistry makes routine tooth extractions relatively comfortable, painless procedures. For seven days after the extraction, your tooth socket will require some care. You will be instructed to steer clear of the empty tooth socket when brushing your teeth. Some bleeding can be expected, and pain medication may be prescribed for residual discomfort.
- Orthodontics
- Invisalign OrthodonticsAn Invisalign-trained dentist will utilize 3D computer imaging technology to demonstrate the complete treatment plan from the initial position to the final desired position. This imaging technology is then used to design an individualized series of custom-made aligners. The patient wears the aligner for about two weeks while the teeth move incrementally. After two weeks, the current aligner is replaced with the next one until the final position is achieved.
- BracesCost is always a concern, and only your doctor can determine the price of treatment. It is typically in the same range as ordinary metal braces, ranging from $3,000 to $5,000 or more, depending on the requirements of your case.
- Teeth WhiteningCustomized trays are filled with a whitening gel and worn in the mouth for as little as 1 hour per day. In as little as one week, this process can erase most stains from coffee drinking and tobacco, as well as tooth yellowing associated with aging, producing a brilliant, bright white smile.
- Cosmetic DentistryEnhancing the smile's aesthetic appearance can lead to increased self-confidence, improved social skills, and even a more positive outlook on life. Modern cosmetic dentistry merges advanced technology with fine art, and can often produce amazing results in less time than you would expect.
