• Fillings
• Veneers
  If you’re looking to radically improve the look of your teeth and create the smile you’ve always dreamed of, dental veneers may be the way to go. Here’s how it works: dental veneers are made from very thin porcelain piece, which is bonded onto the front of a crooked, misshapen, or discolored tooth. The intention is to create a more uniform, attractive appearance. Porcelain veneers can be applied to a few as a single tooth, or as many as your entire smile. Porcelain is used in dental restorations because it is durable and can be made to resemble your natural teeth in color, texture and shape for a natural looking and long-lasting, beautiful smile. Done correctly, dental veneers can completely reshape your smile by correcting slight color and irregularities.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Benefits of dental implants Dental implant technology was first created about 30 years ago. Since arriving on the dental scene, dental implants have revolutionized how we replace missing teeth. Dentures and removable “false teeth” are no longer the only – or even the best – option for all patients. Instead, patients benefit from permanent tooth implants that look, feel, and function just like the real thing. The benefits of this are many. In fact, dental implants: Make you look younger. At least in comparison to alternative dental treatments. People who are missing teeth often look older than they are. This happens because facial muscles no longer have the support provided by teeth and the root structure beneath. Improve your smile. When you imagine a beautiful smile, you probably don’t picture missing teeth. Endearing (and natural) in children, missing teeth in adults does not have quite the same effect. Additionally, missing teeth create gaps, which in turn weakens the jawbone (due to bone loss) and can contribute to teeth shifting over time. Make eating easier. Gaps in teeth can interfere with biting, chewing, and drinking; filled with implants, you can eat and drink like normal. Are stable and long lasting. Unlike dentures, which are designed to be removed for cleaning, implants are permanent additions to your smile. They look and function just like normal teeth; in fact, it’s easy to forget which teeth are implants to begin with. Implants do not shift or come loose, nor do they need any special care above and beyond your normal oral hygiene routine. Provide a solid foundation for additional dental treatments. One of the best things about dental implants is just how sturdy they are. As such, they provide an excellent anchor point for additional treatments, including dental crowns, bridges, and implant-supported dentures. See below for more on these. Are discreet. Dental implants look just like your other, natural teeth. Unless you tell someone, it’s unlikely anyone will know or notice that one or more of your teeth are implants. Provide a more comfortable alternative to dentures. Dental implants don’t need adjustments, and offer a permanent solution to missing teeth. Unlike dentures, they do not pop in and out. They simply become a part of your natural, healthy smile.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Missing teeth? Filling the gap in your smile isn’t just good cosmetically. There are serious health benefits to dental implants. A dental implant treatment consists of placing a small titanium screw below the gum into the upper or lower jawbones which can then secure a new single tooth or set of teeth. Titanium is able to fuse with bone, allowing the screw to anchor and support new teeth so that they feel and function like natural teeth. Overview of dental implants

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  The primary recover period takes a few days. Generally, patients may want to take a day or two off work. During this time, patients are limited in what they can eat and drink. However, o ur state-of-the-art oral surgery techniques result in minimal discomfort and significantly reduce healing time. Implants are nearly fully settled after two weeks. They will continue to bond with the surrounding jaw bone for a few months, but functionally patients won’t notice any changes after that initial recover period.
