- Dental ExaminationWe will analyze the source of your bad breath and try to solve your problem in a timely manner. This might require a thorough oral examination and current full mouth x-rays of all your teeth. Certain bacteria in the mouth give off these odorous compounds and the more bacteria there are, the more of a problem the bad breath can be. During the oral exam we will look for broken fillings or teeth, obvious infections and any severe tartar build up. A periodontal examination might be needed to determine if a gum infection could be contributing to the persons breath problem.
- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningOral cancer is typically discovered in late stages, when the five-year survival rate is only 22%. If detected in early stages, however, the five-year survival rate is 80% or higher. The VELscope System can also help discover abnormal growths before they become cancerous. According to Dr. Magida of Newtown Dental Care, "We have always conducted an annual comprehensive oral cancer screening for all of our patients, but now the VELscope System will help us see things we might have missed previously. By detecting potential problems earlier, we will be providing our patients with the best health care currently available".

- Fluoride Treatment
- Dental SealantsMeasurements from the Diagnodent will help us determine if certain suspected areas on the teeth are decay and treat them with conservative fillings, or to monitor them over time and treat them with preventive therapies like fluoride and/or sealants.

- VeneersDental Bonding is a non invasive technique which is often used to close gaps between teeth, repair broken or chipped teeth or changing the color and shape of teeth. Bonding is a low cost alternative to veneers, but not as strong and has some limitations.
- CrownsPlease try to chew on the opposite side from the tooth which has just been treated, as much as possible. In approximately 2-3 weeks impressions will be taken for a crown on that tooth. Until that time, your tooth is weak and could fracture.
- BridgesDental bridges are a great way to replace missing teeth. Your existing teeth are used to literally create a bridge to cross the area where your tooth is missing. Bridges are made from gold, metal, alloys, or porcelain to ensure that they are strong and durable.

- Restorative Dentistry
- Root Canal TreatmentIt is not uncommon for a tooth to be uncomfortable or even experience a dull ache Immediately after receiving root canal therapy. This should subside within one week.
- DenturesFull dentures are a treatment option of last resort. When a patient has had all their teeth removed, or is about to have the remaining teeth taken out, dentures are a treatment choice to help restore some of the function of the lost teeth.
- OverdenturesOverdentures - these are the same as conventional dentures but either some of the persons teeth have been left for the denture to fit over or implants are placed in the jawbone for the denture to lock onto. If there are remaining teeth left, they have had root canal treatment to remove the nerves and then they are trimmed down and reshaped to accommodate the denture fitting over them.

- Teeth WhiteningHome Bleaching is a popular procedure which is simple and effective. Impressions are taken of your teeth and from these impressions, clear trays are made that fit over your teeth. Once at home, you inject a small amount of the bleaching gel into the tray. You then place the tray over your teeth and wear it for a few hours daily. Most people choose to wear the trays while they are sleeping. After about two weeks, most people find their teeth to be as white as they are going to get.
