Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning

Restorative

• Fillings
  Silver amalgam has been the traditional choice for filling material prior to composite resin. It is composed of 35% silver, 15% tin, small amounts of zinc, and about 50% mercury. Amalgam restoration can be durable but can corrode and stain teeth over time. In larger amalgam fillings, the remaining tooth may weaken and fracture.
• Resin Composite
  In our practice, we only offer what is best for our patients. In that respect, we only offer composite resins as the filling material of choice. Composite restorations can achieve the appearance of your natural teeth. It is a more conservative restoration because they require less tooth structure removal and the composite is bonded to your teeth to provide better retention.
• Veneers
  Veneers are conservative crowns that can help restore a smile by correcting the shape and color of the teeth. It is a minimally invasive procedure and the results can dramatically improve one’s appearance and confidence.
• Crowns
  Occasionally a temporary crown may come off. Call us if this happens and bring the temporary crown with you so we can re-cement it. It is very important for the temporary to stay in place, as it will prevent other teeth from moving and compromising the fit of your final restoration.
• Bridges
  Crowns and bridges usually take two or three appointments to complete. In the first visit, the teeth are prepared and molds of the are taken. Temporary crowns or bridges are placed to protect the teeth while the custom restoration is being made. Since the teeth will be anesthetized, the tongue, lips, and roof of the mouth may be numb.  Please refrain from eating and drinking hot beverages until the numbness has completely worn off.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  The anatomy of the tooth is structured in such a way that the enamel is on the outermost layer, followed by dentin, and inside the dentin lies the pulp. The pulp is housed within the root canal space of a tooth and consists of blood vessels, connective tissues and nerves.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Dentures are prosthetic devices fabricated to replace missing teeth and can restore facial collapse from prolonged period of tooth loss. Dentures are supported by the surrounding hard and soft tissues in the mouth. Dentures can help improve food chewing, speech, esthetics, and ultimately help the patient gain self esteem. Patients can select from various materials of denture teeth to achieve the most optimal results.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  For patients who want more retention and support, dental implants may be an option. Implants most closely resemble the feel and functions of natural teeth. Feel free to ask us for more information or click on the following link.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Tooth Extractions
  After tooth extraction, it’s important for a blood clot to form to stop the bleeding and begin the healing process. That’s why we ask you to bite on a gauze pad for 30-45 minutes after the appointment. If the bleeding or oozing still persists, place another gauze pad over the wound and bite firmly for another 30 minutes. You may have to do this several times.

Orthodontics

• Invisalign Orthodontics
  Invisalign are completely transparent aligners that can straighten your teeth and can correct crowding, overbite, or close the spacing in your teeth. Invisalign is more esthetic and hygienic than conventional braces. Call us for a free evaluation and consultation today.

General

• Teeth Whitening
  Dietary habits and the process of aging can stain and discolor your teeth. Non-professional procedures and products can damage your teeth and gums or yield unsatisfactory results. We offer Ultradent’s Opalescence Boost in-office whitening. The procedure takes about an hour and patients can usually get their teeth a few shades whiter.
