Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  Under most cases, the extraction of the tooth is the last resource to maintain dental health. In order to keep your teeth healthy and functional, it is important that you maintain proper oral hygiene within the home and consistently attend regularly scheduled dental appointments. The odds of detecting decay and preventing infection are greatly increased by scheduling regular exams and cleanings.
• X-rays
  Dental x-rays are essential in helping dentists identify hidden tooth decay, plaque and tartar buildup and potential root rot, among other things. Finding these issues as early as possible is essential in implementing an effective treatment plan that can get rid of them. Without dental x-rays, problems that are not immediately visible could go undiagnosed and could get progressively worse, leading to worse problems that are harder to treat and can be extremely threatening to your overall health.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  To determine if the infection exists, x-rays and pocket depth readings are taken into consideration. When there is evidence of this infection, the need for interceptive gum therapy is required with the goal to prevent disease progression. When you hear your hygienist call out 4, 5 or 6, it’s time to take action...yes, the deep teeth cleaning!
• Fluoride Treatment

Restorative

• Fillings
• Veneers
  Veneers are a cosmetic addition to a smile and mouth. They are made specifically to help your smile look its best. Veneers are made of porcelain, and they are shaped and custom-made in a dental laboratory. When porcelain veneers are bonded to your teeth, they can make your smile beautiful and flawless.
• Crowns
  Inlays and Onlays have become known as Partial Crowns. They are so called because a full crown is not needed to restore the damage or decay that has incurred on the tooth. Specifically, this service is for the cases in which a tooth has decay, but the decay has not destroyed all of the healthy enamel of the tooth. The inlay or onlay acts as the missing part of your tooth, fitted and placed to complete your naturally grown tooth.
• Bridges
  There are a variety of different bridges. Consulting with the dentist is necessary for deciding which option fits your particular circumstance. The most commonly used bridge is the porcelain fixed bridge, because it resembles your natural teeth. This type of bridge consists of two different crowns that are placed on two anchoring teeth (abutment teeth). The crowns are attached to the pontics (artificial teeth), that fill the gap created by one or more missing teeth.
• Dental Bonding
  Bonding can be an important part of restoring or completing your smile. When a dental problem has surfaced in your mouth and causes unsightly flaws and/or slight discomfort, dental bonding will improve and strengthen your confidence of your smile.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  Root canal therapy becomes necessary when the inner nerve of a tooth becomes affected by decay or infection. When this happens, the tooth may become extremely sensitive to both pressure and temperature, and intense pain can be expected. In the initial stages of decay and infection, it is possible that no symptoms would be present. However, in the advanced stages of decay and infection an abscess (pimple-like inflammation on the gums) will form.

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning
  A dental deep cleaning, sometimes referred to as gum therapy, is a treatment that cleans between the gums and teeth down to the roots. Like a regular cleaning, the hygienist or dentist will clean the tooth, gum line and sides of the teeth. However in a deep teeth cleaning, they continue to remove tartar buildup down below the gum line to the root of the tooth. This process can also be referred to as a “root planing and scaling” and may require several visits in order to complete the treatment. It is more extensive than a standard cleaning and is designed to treat gum disease and to stop it from becoming worse.
