- Teeth CleaningHaving your teeth professionally cleaned on a regular basis is an important part of dental hygiene. During a typical cleaning procedure, a hand scaling instrument is used to remove plaque and tartar from each individual tooth. We use a combination of hand scaling and ultrasonic scaling instruments. When used with water irrigation, these ultrasonic tools are effective in the removal of plaque from the deep pocket areas around your teeth. Combined with proper home care, professional cleanings are your best prevention against tooth decay and gum disease.
- Dental SealantsWhen your child’s first molars appear at age 6, it’s important to protect them with dental sealants. A sealant is a thin protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of their back teeth. This creates a barrier against entrapping food and bacteria that cause decay.
- Fillings
- VeneersWe use veneers when the shape or size of the teeth require a larger degree of change. These are custom-made porcelain covers, which are adhered to the tooth to give you a functional, attractive smile.
- CrownsA crown is a cover for a tooth weakened by decay or lost fillings. Crowns decrease sensitivity, help prevent further damage to other teeth, and restore a natural looking smile.

- Restorative Dentistry
- Root Canal TreatmentYears ago, infected teeth had to be extracted. Today these teeth can be saved with root canal therapy. If you have pain or throbbing when biting, sensitivity to hot or cold foods or an abscess, contact our office immediately. When treated early, root canal therapy is more comfortable and predictable in its outcome.
- Dentures
- Dental ImplantsImplants have become a more common treatment solution for missing teeth. Our dentists will evaluate if implants are a good treatment option. We then work as a team with area Oral Surgeons to place implants and monitor healing. Once the implant has successfully integrated with bone, we can place the implant retained crown into the site.
