Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
  A traditional oral cancer screening by your Staten Island dentist typically involves an intra and extra oral head and neck examination to find abnormalities using palpation, or touch, and reflective light. While feeling for lumps in the face and mouth can indicate obvious precancerous or cancerous areas, viewing the mucosa with the naked eye is not the most accurate or effective method of finding abnormalities in their early stages.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  Oral hygiene is so important in order to prevent gum disease and plaque build up. Our team at Oakwood Dental regularly provides an oral hygiene instruction programme that our patients follow at home. A patient should brush and floss their teeth twice per day, for optimal dental and gum health. We have a team of hygienists in house to take care of your teeth cleaning needs and a Specialist Periodontist for more advanced gum disease.
• Fluoride Treatment
• Dental Sealants
  Our Staten Island dental team and New Jersey dentist team are happy to provide your children with general services for all dental issues. We have highly experienced dentists who provide check-ups, cleanings, restorations to the affected tooth, and fissure sealants with the best dentists. Fissure sealants are a painless way to help prevent tooth decay. A fissure sealant is a liquid that flows into the fissures of the biting surface of the tooth, which in turn protects the tooth from cavities. We use the highest quality products to ensure you receive the best dental care.

Restorative

• Fillings
• Resin Composite
  Traditional dental veneers are typically made of porcelain or composite resin, which are both durable and natural-looking materials that can mimic the color and translucency of natural teeth. Vivaneers are different from traditional dental veneers because traditional veneers require dental anesthetic, to numb the mouth as existing teeth are shaved down with a drill.  Vivaneers™ No-Prep Veneers provide you with an amazing smile without any shots, drilling, or pain. Dental veneers can provide several benefits for patients seeking restorative dentistry options. They are a minimally invasive solution that can cover up a variety of dental imperfections without the need for more extensive procedures, such as dental crowns or implants. They can also help improve the functionality of your teeth, allowing for better chewing and speaking abilities.
• Veneers
  As your dentist at Oakwood Dental, one of our areas of specialty is using porcelain veneers to give our new and existing patients a gorgeous, healthy, and natural-looking smile. This treatment is custom-made to fit your mouth perfectly, each porcelain veneer is delicately crafted to exhibit a beautiful, lifelike look for your teeth. Whether replacing a few teeth or several, take comfort in knowing each veneer will blend naturally with your surrounding teeth.
• Crowns
  Traditional crowns can be created from several materials including metal, porcelain, ceramic or resin. With CEREC, crowns are created from ceramic, which is the most desirable material to produce a natural looking and long-lasting tooth cap.
• Bridges
  If you live anywhere in Staten Island, NY, and would like to learn more about our crowns and bridges procedures, please do not hesitate to contact us at Oakwood Dental. We have two locations in the Oakwood and Tottenville areas, and you can choose the one that is most convenient for you.
• Dental Bonding
  Dental bonding is a cosmetic dental procedure that uses a tooth-colored resin material to improve the appearance of your teeth. The material is applied to your teeth, sculpted to the desired shape, and then hardened with a special light. It’s a non-invasive cosmetic procedure, that can improve the appearance of a patient’s teeth that are chipped, cracked, discolored, or misshapen. The benefits of dental bonding include a cost-effective, quick, and painless solution for various cosmetic dental issues. Risks and considerations include the possibility of staining, chipping, or breaking the bonding material.
• Restorative Dentistry
  If you are nervous about the dental veneer procedure or suffer from dental anxiety, your Staten Island dentist or New Jersey dentist may offer sedation dentistry options. This will help you feel more comfortable and relaxed during the process. Our patients find that the benefits of porcelain veneers, including a natural-looking, beautiful smile, are well worth the cost. If you’re considering porcelain veneers, it’s important to consult with our highly qualified professionals, who have vast experience in restorative dentistry and can provide you with a personalized treatment plan. With the right care and maintenance, porcelain veneers can provide a long-lasting, natural-looking solution for improving the appearance of your smile and the functionality of your teeth.

Endodontics

• Pulpotomy
  In addition to root canal therapy, our dental specialists also provide other endodontic services, such as pulp capping, pulpotomy, and apicoectomy. Pulp capping and pulpotomy are procedures that are used to treat teeth with deep cavities or decay, where the pulp is still healthy. Apicoectomy is a surgical procedure that is used to remove the tip of the tooth’s root, in cases where a root canal has failed or was not possible.
• Root Canal Treatment
  Endodontic or root canal therapy may be required if the nerve of the tooth has died or been damaged due to trauma or decay. If a nerve has been injured or diseased, a patient may suffer sensitivity, pain or an abscess on the tooth. An Endodontist will clean the infected pulp from inside the tooth root, and seal the root to prevent further infection.  This is an extremely successful treatment to save a damaged tooth and prevent extraction.
• Apicoectomy

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Our philosophy at Oakwood Dental is that every one of our patients has the right to a beautiful, healthy and natural-looking smile; that’s why we offer a full range of denture services that provide you with plenty of high quality options for tooth replacement. When teeth fall out due to decay or aging, it negatively affects your oral health in many ways. Your remaining teeth begin to shift out of place, which ruins your bite and the structure of your teeth, leading to jaw and facial bone pain and possibly facial bone tissue deterioration. The loss of teeth also causes stress on your remaining teeth as they compensate for the loss, which can cause damage to them as well. This can lead to numerous oral health problems as well as unnecessary pain and discomfort. In order to counteract the damage of tooth loss and ensure our patients keep their healthy and beautiful smiles, we at Oakwood Dental offer a full range of dentures and partials. Whether you are missing one tooth or several, Simply Natural Dentures™ and Simply Natural Partials™ are convenient and durable solutions to tooth loss that seamlessly and subtly restore what’s missing. They are custom-designed based on your individual mouth to replace your teeth and look as natural as possible. Simply Natural Dentures™ and Partials™ are removable, durable, and exceptionally designed to provide the maximum fit and comfort so they easily fit your lifestyle. You can finally have the beautiful smile you were meant to have and no longer feel embarrassed to smile, eat, or talk. Call or visit our office of Oakwood Dental to learn more about how dentures or partials can give you a new outlook on life.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  A dental implant is an artificial tooth root placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge in place. Whether you are missing one tooth or many, you might not only be dealing with impaired self-esteem, but also functional disadvantages. Implants can help you eat better, look younger and feel more confident. They can be more conservative than traditional bridgework because the surrounding teeth do not need to be filed down. Dental implants are so natural looking and feeling that you may forget you ever lost a tooth.
