- Dental ExaminationHaving regular dental checkups and periodontal examinations is very important and will help detect if periodontal problems exist.
- X-rays
- Oral Cancer ScreeningOral cancer screening: We check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues and gums for any signs of oral cancer.
- Teeth CleaningRegular dental exams and cleaning visits are essential in preventing dental problems and maintaining the health of your teeth and gums. At these visits, your teeth are cleaned and checked for cavities. Additionally, we check and monitor many other things to help maintain your dental health.
- Fluoride Treatment
- FillingsAlthough studies indicate that there are no measurable health risks to patients who have silver fillings, we do know that mercury is a toxic material when we are exposed at high, unsafe levels. For instance, we have been warned to limit the consumption of certain types of fish that carry high levels of mercury in them. However, with respect to amalgam fillings, the ADA maintains that when the mercury combines with the other components of the filling, it becomes an inactive substance that is safe.
- VeneersPorcelain veneers are very thin shells of tooth-shaped porcelain that are individually crafted to cover the fronts of teeth. They are very durable and will not stain, making them a popular solution for those seeking to restore or enhance the beauty of their smiles.
- CrownsPorcelain crowns (caps): A crown is a tooth-colored, custom-made covering that encases the entire tooth surface, restoring it to its original shape and size. Crowns protect and strengthen teeth that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of restorations. They are ideal for teeth that have large, fractured or broken fillings, and also for those that are badly decayed.
- Bridges
- Dental Bonding
- Restorative DentistryRestorative dentistry focuses on repairing teeth that have been damaged, decayed, or lost. We offer dentures, crowns, bridges, and dental implants that enhance oral functions like speaking and eating. These procedures also improve your dental health.
- Root Canal TreatmentA root canal is a dental procedure that treats infections within a tooth’s pulp. It involves removing infected or damaged tissue, cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, and sealing them. This procedure saves a tooth from extraction and alleviates pain, promoting oral health and function.
- Deep Cleaning
- DenturesReplace your toothbrush every 2 to 3 months. If you wear dentures or removable bridges, clean them thoroughly and place them back in your mouth in the morning. See your dentist regularly. Get a checkup and cleaning at least twice a year. If you have or have had periodontal disease, your dentist will recommend more frequent visits.

- Oral Surgery
- Tooth ExtractionsTooth extractions involve removing a damaged, decayed, or problematic tooth from its socket in the jawbone. We perform extractions for various reasons, including severe decay, infection, overcrowding, or before orthodontic treatment.
- OrthodonticsThe purpose of this therapy is to influence your lower jaw to function freely and without pain. Many situations cause the malfunction of your lower jaw. Some examples are accidents, surgery, developmental defects, peculiar oral habits, many fillings placed over numerous years, naturally occurring malocclusion (poor bite), orthodontics, psychological stress, and clenching or bruxing of teeth.
- BracesOrthodontics: Less visible and more effective than ever, today’s brackets and wires appeal to adult patients who want straighter teeth. In some cases, teeth may be straightened with custom-made, clear, removable aligners that require no braces.
