Preventive Care Services
Our preventive services are geared to establishing your dental
health, then maintaining it with daily habits. Early detection
is the key to avoiding costly, more involved dental treatment.
Prevention begins with the control of your normal oral bacteria
or plaque, which is the main cause of cavities and gum disease.
With regular dental visits, we can treat cavities and gum disease
at an early stage. We use the latest technology to thoroughly
examine your teeth, gums, and bone which supports the teeth. We
emphasize the importance of home care, demonstrate proper hygiene
techniques and customize cleanings for each patient.

Fillings
& Restorative Services
We emphasize comprehensive care using only the latest materials
and techniques to design and achieve an optimal smile. When it
comes to restorative care, we approach things conservatively,
trying to save as much natural tooth structure as possible while
restoring function and esthetics where needed.

Root
Canal Treatment
When decay has damaged or already killed the nerve of the tooth,
root canal treatment is needed. This procedure can relieve toothache,
promote healing, and prevent the development of painful infections
that may spread.

Crowns
and Bridges
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over a tooth,
covering the tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and/or
to improve appearance. A dental bridge replaces the space created
by one or more missing teeth. It is made up of two crowns, one
for each tooth on either side of the gap and a false tooth/teeth
in between. Crowns and bridges can be made from gold, alloys,
porcelain or a combination of these materials.

Complete
& Partial Dentures
A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding
tissues. Two types of dentures are available – complete
and partial dentures. Complete dentures are used when all the
teeth are missing, while partial dentures are used when some natural
teeth remain. We also offer the esthetic, metal-free partial dentures.

Onlays
& Inlays
As opposed to using silver fillings or preparing an entire crown,
this approach conserves the tooth structure, thereby promoting
strength while remaining highly esthetic. These indirect fillings
are made in a dental laboratory and require two visits before
being placed. They are considered when not enough tooth structure
remains to support a filling but the tooth is not so severely
damaged that it needs a crown.

Implants
Despite improvements in dental care, millions of Americans suffer
tooth loss mostly due to tooth decay, gum disease, or injury.
For many years, the only treatment options available for people
with missing teeth were bridges and dentures. But today dental
implants are available. An implant is a titanium cylinder, which
is surgically placed into the bone, replacing the root of a missing
tooth. A crown is then made to fit right on top of the implant.
Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or
removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural
teeth.

Oral
Surgery
The goal of our dental practice is to prevent tooth loss and for
you to keep your natural teeth for as long as possible. First,
we carefully analyze your particular situation and determine whether
extraction is the best option. Sometimes, there are situations
in which extraction is the only course of treatment. If so, we
take all the time necessary to explain the procedure, allay any
fears, and keep you comfortable. And in cases where a specialist
is advisable, we will provide an excellent and trustworthy referral.

Periodontal
Services for Gum Disease
A major cause of tooth loss in adults is periodontal disease.
Since it is relatively painless and unnoticeable in the early
stages it may go undetected until it is too late. Without treatment,
it leads to bone loss, tooth damage and eventually tooth loss.
To prevent the loss of teeth from periodontal disease, we emphasize
prevention education, monitor potential problems, chart meticulously,
and employ the latest therapies.
