Restorative

• Fillings
• Veneers
  Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain or plastic cemented over the front of your teeth to change their color or shape.
• Crowns
  Crowns are synthetic “caps” that fit over the top of a damaged or broken tooth and prevent additional damage to the tooth.
• Bridges
  Dental bridges replace a single missing tooth. They are attached to teeth on either side, forming a “bridge.” Bridges sit on top of the gum and are permanent.
• Dental Bonding
• Restorative Dentistry

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment

Periodontics

• Deep Cleaning

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Both bridges and dentures are normally attached to other natural teeth, but depending on the situation, we may recommend implanting them.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Implants are anchored securely to your jaw bone, allowing you to have a stronger bite force. When you have implants, you don’t need to worry about dislodging your dental work.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  Orthodontics are used to align poorly positioned teeth, jaws, and bite patterns. Orthodontic services are for growing kids and teenagers whose facial structure is changing as well as adults who want to correct their smiles later in life.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  Our orthodontic services create happier and healthier smiles for patients of all ages. We offer several treatments to align and straighten teeth that will help you look better and feel more confident.
• Braces
  Traditional metal braces are a highly effective way to straighten your teeth, and modern technology means they are more comfortable to wear than ever before.

General

• Teeth Whitening
  If you have crooked or discolored teeth, veneers and whitening can enhance your appearance without requiring extensive restorative work.
