Our Services
We understand how important a smile can be to give you confidence! There are many avenues we can take to improve your smile, from Invisalign to veneers, teeth whitening to implant restorations. We look forward to giving you your best smile ever.
Implants
Implants are the most state-of-the-art method to replacing missing teeth. They not only feel like teeth, but they never decay and look like your natural teeth! Implants can also be used for multiple missing teeth, such as improving stability of dentures or full mouth rehabilitation cases. Typically, implants are a multi-step process, because healing is required for good success. We only use Nobel Biocare implants, which are the best implants available on the market today. We use the best because we believe our patients deserve the best.
Sealants
Sealants are a fantastic way of preventing tooth decay when adult teeth first come in. In order to avoid cavities, sealants seal off areas where children are at high risk of decay, such as deep grooves in the biting surfaces of teeth. These will typically be recommended in our pediatric patients when they come in for a routine exam and cleaning, and can possibly be done in the same appointment!
Crowns
Crowns, or 'caps', surround a tooth completely and are typically used to restore large areas of decay or repair teeth that are fractured. In some cases they may also be necessary for teeth that have had previous root canal therapy, or even for solely cosmetic purposes. We use the most up-to-date and advanced materials for our crowns, which are much more esthetic, stronger, and more wear-resistant than previous older crown materials.
Extractions
If your tooth is non-restorable or must be removed for other reasons, we are able to surgically remove them for you. We ensure that you will not feel any pain during the procedure and are fully numb. For more complicated extractions we will typically refer to one of our friends who is an oral surgeon.
Fillings
Fillings are used to restore small areas of decay, or “cavities”. They are typically resin, tooth-colored composite material, but can sometimes be silver amalgam depending on the site of the decay and the age of the patient. There are times when anesthesia is not necessary if the decay is found early enough, so make sure you make your regularly-scheduled hygiene appointments!
Dentures
We understand that there are some cases where many teeth may need to be removed in certain situations, and one method to replace them is with dentures. Dentures may replace all or some teeth and are removable.
Pediatric Dentistry
We love kids! Screenings can be done as early as age two, but cleanings can be attempted as early as age three. If any restorative work must be done, we offer nitrous to help keep kids at ease.
Root Canals
Root canal therapy, or “endodontics”, involves cleaning and removing the nerve of the tooth due to deep decay into the pulp, or to maintain the stability of a restoration. Contrary to popular belief, root canal therapy is very rarely painful. The vast majority of our patients have very little discomfort afterwards and feel great in no time!
