Preventive Dentistry
Routine Dental Care and Examinations
There are many benefits to maintaining a healthy mouth such as the prevention of heart disease.
Without routine dental care, plaque builds up on your teeth and gums and can lead to periodontal disease, making you more vulnerable to heart disease, clogged arteries, and even strokes.
The bottom line is that good oral care is imperative to your overall well being. Be sure to come see us at least every six months to ensure that your oral health is at its best.
Mouth guards
A properly fitted mouth guard can help prevent broken teeth and injuries to the lips, tongue, face or jaw. Have a custom mouth guard made specifically for you if you participate in athletics.
Sealants
Dental sealants act as a barrier, protecting the teeth against decay-causing bacteria. The sealants are usually applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (premolars and molars) where decay occurs most often.
General Dentistry
Bridges
Bridges help maintain the shape of your face, as well as alleviating the stress in your bite by replacing missing teeth.
Fillings
Dental researchers are continuing their often decades-long work developing materials, such as ceramics and polymer compounds that look more like natural teeth. Patients today have several choices when it comes to selecting materials to repair missing, worn, damaged or decayed teeth.
Tooth Extractions
When having an extraction, today's modern procedures and follow up care as recommended by your dentist are there to provide you the patient great benefit and comfort.
Dentures
If you’ve lost all of your natural teeth, whether from periodontal disease, tooth decay or injury, complete dentures can replace your missing teeth and your smile. You’ll be able to eat and speak—things that people often take for granted until their natural teeth are lost.
Crowns
A crown can make your tooth stronger and improve its appearance. It can cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there isn't enough tooth left, attach a bridge, and protect a weak tooth from breaking. It can also restore one that's already broken. A crown is a good way to cover teeth that are discolored or badly shaped.
Implants
Crowns and conventional bridges or dentures may not be your only options when replacing missing teeth. For some people, dental implants offer a smile that looks and feels as natural as their own teeth. Surgically placed below the gums over a series of appointments, implants fuse to the jawbone and serve as a base for individual replacement teeth, bridges, or a denture.
Implants offer stability because they fuse to your bone. Integration of the implants into your jaw also helps your replacement teeth feel more natural and many people find the secure fit more comfortable than conventional substitutes.
Candidates for dental implants need to have healthy gums and adequate bone to support the implant. A thorough evaluation will help determine whether you are a good candidate for dental implants.
Partial Dentures
Removable partial dentures usually consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-colored plastic bases, which are connected by metal framework.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Porcelain Veneers
You don’t have to live with gaps in your teeth or with teeth that are stained, poorly shaped or crooked. A Veneer placed on top of your teeth can correct the cards you were dealt or the results of an injury and ensure you have a beautiful smile. Porcelain Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of teeth. They are strong and a virtually impossible to distinguish from actual teeth.
Teeth Whitening Treatments
Everybody loves a bright white smile, and there are a variety of products and procedures available to help you improve the look of yours. We offer in-office and take-home solutions that can dramatically enhance the impact of your smile.
