- Dental ExaminationDental exams are the cornerstone of good dental health. Maintaining your oral health is the best way to avoid having to endure pain, tooth loss, and costly restorative procedures in the future.

- FillingsTooth-colored fillings are ideal for patients who have a metal sensitivity, are concerned about the mercury content of amalgam fillings, or who simply want to preserve their beautiful smile. Today’s technology allows for a tenacious, long-lasting bond between the restoration and the tooth. We can even replace old metal fillings — which are always at risk for cracking and discoloring — with tooth-colored restorations. You’ll love your new smile and wonder how you ever put up with unsightly metal fillings!
- Resin CompositeModern dental materials allow us to use tooth-colored fillings to fill cavities and restore dental health. Composed of durable composite resins and plastics, these fillings contain no mercury, and provide a completely natural look!
- VeneersWith the use of porcelain veneers, Dr. Pickard can correct a wide range of imperfections, giving you the smile you have always wanted. This procedure can repair gaps, permanent stains, and broken or chipped teeth. They can also repair crooked teeth, and much more. With porcelain veneers, you can have a straight, white smile in a little as two office visits.
- CrownsDo your teeth seem too short? Or your smile too gummy? Your teeth may actually be the proper length, but they are covered with too much gum tissue. The gum tissue can be removed or reshaped with the ease and comfort of a laser. Crown lengthening and gum contouring return your teeth to the appropriate proportions and your gums to an aesthetically pleasing shape
- BridgesDentures restore the look and function of your smile, are custom-crafted just for you, and are easy to maintain. Today’s dentures are natural-looking, more comfortable than ever, and last for decades with proper care. If you are missing one or more teeth, you should look into dentures as a long-term solution, as well as alternatives such as dental bridges and dental implants.
- Dental BondingDr. Pickard knows that there are a variety of ways to maintain positive oral care and a fresh image, which guides his commitment in helping patients meet their needs. Top procedures and treatments offered at our office include porcelain veneers, dental implants, teeth whitening, and dental bonding. We hold high standards of health and wellness, striving to make your visit with us comfortable, secure, and memorable.
- Root Canal TreatmentIf a tooth's pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or damaged because of decay or injury, root-canal treatment is often the only way to save your tooth and repair the damage. This procedure takes anywhere from one to two visits and the tooth will need to be crowned after the root canal is completed in order to protect the tooth structure.
- DenturesThere are many types of dentures, each designed to remedy specific dental problems. If you are missing only a few teeth, partial dentures may be a great choice for you. If you are missing more teeth, complete dentures may be needed. Complete dentures can only be fitted after any remaining teeth are extracted and the gums have healed.
- Dental ImplantsThe loss of even one tooth can seriously impact both the function of your bite and your confidence in your appearance. Adjacent teeth can be compromised by the gap left by a missing tooth, shifting position or becoming more vulnerable to chips and cracking. For our clients dental implants offer a permanent and proven solution to missing teeth. The implant process involves attaching a custom-made, artificial tooth to an anchor post surgically implanted in the jawbone. This post integrates into the bone, providing a firm anchor on which natural-looking, custom-made restorations can be placed.
