Both restore the appearance and function of your natural teeth.

• Dental Bonding

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  Through laser technology we eliminate scalpels and sutures from soft tissue treatments and perform root canals. We can even use it to treat your sleep apnea, rejuvenate your facial appearance, or provide fillings without Novocain. With great precision, our Fotona laser instantly destroys bacteria and removes diseased or unsightly tissues while leaving adjacent healthy tissues untouched. You’ll experience less discomfort and bleeding throughout your procedure!

Periodontics

• Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
  When your gums separate from your teeth it can indicate an infection on the teeth underneath the gums. Bacteria-releasing tartar and calculus are the typical culprits. We can eliminate both with a gingivectomy—removing any diseased tissue and signs of infection to allow gum reattachment. Using our laser technology, we can perform this procedure without scalpels or sutures!
• Deep Cleaning
  Dental implants are designed to last. However, if the surrounding tissue becomes infected—a condition called peri-implantitis—your implants can loosen, become misaligned, and even fall out. The underlying bone can follow. Additional treatments including implant replacement then become necessary. Our team can restore your implant—and your smile—through deep cleaning, diseased tissue removal, and bone grafting.

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Removable Dentures are a time-tested, cost-effective replacement for missing teeth. One reason they’ve lasted is because they have evolved over the years. Today’s dentures are made to fit comfortably and look just like real teeth. Whether you have a few teeth missing or all of them are gone, we can provide denture solutions that meet your needs. We offer full and partial dentures.

• Tooth Extractions
  Dental implants feel, look, and perform just like real teeth. And they never decay or lose their color. We can replace a single missing tooth, multiple missing teeth, or a full mouth of missing teeth with this long-term tooth replacement Our practice uses high-quality implants from BioHorizons®, one of the top manufacturers in the industry. In some cases, we can usually place dental implants the same day as a tooth extraction!
• Ridge Augmentation
  If you suffer jawbone loss following a tooth extraction, your face can take on a sunken, aged appearance. With ridge augmentation, a type of bone grafting, we can reconstruct and strengthen the bone, giving you back your unique facial appearance and restoring your oral health. With this procedure we add bone grafting material onto your jawbone ridge and inside the vacant tooth socket. This will enable your jawbone to regain the strength and mass to support dental implants.
• Bone Grafting
  A natural part of your blood, PRGF can reliably accelerate your healing after surgery. We harvest these growth factors by taking a small sample of your blood and spinning it in a centrifuge. Once the PRGF are isolated, we introduce them in concentrated form into the surgical sites during bone grafting and other treatments. They form a protective layer over treatment areas during your recovery.
