Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  Regular dental checkups and periodontal examinations are essential for maintaining your health and the health of your smile. You don’t have to lose teeth to periodontal disease. By practicing good oral hygiene at home, you can significantly reduce your chances of getting gum disease. Remember to brush regularly, clean between your teeth, eat a balanced diet, and schedule regular dental visits to help keep your smile healthy.

  Regular dental checkups are an essential part of maintaining your oral health. During your regular checkup, your hygienist will...
• Fluoride Treatment
• Dental Sealants
  Sometimes brushing is not enough, especially when it comes to those hard-to-reach spots in your mouth. It is difficult for your toothbrush to get in between the small cracks and grooves on your teeth. If left alone, those tiny areas can develop tooth decay. Sealants give your teeth extra protection against decay and help prevent cavities.

Restorative

• Fillings
• Resin Composite
  Newer dental fillings include ceramic and plastic compounds that mimic the appearance of natural teeth. Often called composite resins, these compounds are used on the front teeth where a natural appearance is essential. Still, they can also be used on the back teeth depending on the location and extent of the tooth decay.
• Veneers
  Porcelain is the most popular veneer from a cosmetic standpoint; however, they tend to be the most expensive. Porcelain veneers also tend to be the most customized, as they are molded, created by a dental technician in a lab, and fitted based on precise dimensions.
• Crowns
  Crowns are a cosmetic restoration used to strengthen a tooth or improve its shape. Crowns are most often used for teeth that are broken, worn, or partially destroyed by tooth decay.

  In the past, if you had a tooth with a diseased nerve, you would probably lose that tooth. Today, that tooth can be saved with a special dental procedure called root canal treatment. Root canals are a relatively simple procedure involving one to three office visits. Best of all, having a root canal when necessary can save your tooth and your smile!

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Let’s face it when you have missing teeth—whether one, two, or many—you’re not getting as much out of life as you deserve. Maybe you can’t eat the foods you used to enjoy. Perhaps you don’t laugh or smile as much for fear of the gaps showing. Or maybe you avoid looking in the mirror altogether because you don’t like what you see. Dental implants can help restore your smile and oral health. In many cases, we can take care of you from beginning to end, with no need to seek outside services.

• Invisalign Orthodontics
  Invisalign® uses a series of clear, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you’re wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after. Invisalign® is made with 3D computer imaging technology and has been proven effective. More than 70 percent of orthodontists in the U.S. and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign®.
• Braces
  Yes! In fact, it’s even more important that patients receiving orthodontic treatment visit their dentist regularly. With braces, food may be caught in places that your toothbrush can’t reach. This causes bacteria to build up and can lead to cavities, gingivitis, and gum disease. Your dentist will work closely with your orthodontist to make sure that your teeth stay clean and healthy while wearing braces.
