Preventative

Early Detection for Optimal Oral Health
Routine dental care is essential for preventing issues before they escalate. Our preventive services include:

Teeth Cleaning

Committing to routine preventive dental care can result in fewer oral health problems. Semi-annual professional cleanings allow us to proactively address your dental health. Using specialized tools, your dental hygienist removes excess plaque and tartar, followed by gentle teeth polishing. Hygienists also check for signs of gingivitis, providing hygiene tips for improved smile health.

Fluoride

Fluoride, known as nature’s cavity fighter, strengthens tooth enamel, increasing resistance to decay. Fluoride toothpaste, fluoridated water, and professional fluoride treatments are effective in fighting tooth decay, strengthening enamel, and promoting healthy teeth development in children.

Oral Cancer Screening

Early detection of oral cancer is crucial for quick recovery. During hygiene visits, all mouth tissues, including gums, cheeks, lips, tongue, and jaw, are examined. Tobacco users face a higher risk, and if any unusual changes are detected, a biopsy and microscopic analysis are suggested.

Gas Sedation

Laughing gas, a mild sedation method, combats anxiety during dental procedures. Inhaled through a small mask over the nose, it induces relaxation without memory loss or the need for an escort after the appointment.

Oral Sedation

Oral sedation, deeper than laughing gas, involves prescribed medication before appointments, enhancing comfort and reducing memory of the experience. A responsible individual is needed to drive you home after the longer-lasting effects.

IV Sedation

IV sedation offers a deep level of relaxation for anxious patients, administered directly into the bloodstream. Most patients undergoing IV sedation have no recollection of the procedure, with vital signs closely monitored for safety.

Restorative

Restoring your teeth to perfect health is our goal.
Our restorative services aim to bring your teeth back to optimal health:

Crowns

Dental crowns, or caps, rebuild and cover damaged teeth, mimicking natural materials. Crafted for single or multiple teeth, crowns can also be used with dental implants.

Fillings

Dental fillings, a common procedure, involves numbing the area, removing decay, and filling the space with restoration material.

Implants

Dental implants feel and function like natural teeth, providing a permanent solution lasting a lifetime. Unlike dentures, they allow patients to eat, speak, and smile confidently.

Bridges

Dental bridges replace missing teeth by spanning the gap, attaching to adjacent teeth. An affordable option for multiple missing teeth.

Dentures

Dentures are an affordable way to replace missing teeth, customized for each patient’s needs. Full dentures replace all natural teeth, while partial dentures address specific gaps.

Extractions

Tooth extractions are performed when necessary for health reasons, ensuring patient comfort during minor surgical procedures.

Root Canals

Root canals address problematic pulp, removing it, cleaning the canal, and sealing the space. A protective structure is placed on the treated tooth, followed by slight pain and discomfort for a few days.

Bone Grafting

Bone grafting fills voids in the jawbone, preventing further loss and providing support for dental implants. It restores integrity to areas experiencing bone collapse.

Cosmetic

Achieving Your Dream Smile
Our cosmetic services bring you closer to your ideal smile:

Veneers

Veneers, a combination of dental art and science, are custom-designed porcelain pieces bonding to natural teeth, addressing stains, chips, gaps, and misalignment.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening removes stains, offering a brighter smile. Professional treatments can be done in-office or with a custom whitening kit at home.

Clear Aligner

Clear Aligner provides a modern straightening solution using clear plastic trays, gently moving teeth into place. Removable trays allow normal eating and cleaning.

Braces

Braces, also known as dental appliances, are utilized to address various dental issues such as crowding, misaligned, or crooked teeth. While braces are commonly associated with teenagers, adults also opt for them. Over time, braces gradually straighten and align teeth, ultimately correcting your bite

Oral Condition Treatment

Caring for Overall Wellness
Our treatments for oral conditions prioritize both oral and overall health:

TMJ & TMD Treatment

TMJ disorder relief includes least-invasive approaches, relaxation techniques, and restorative tools such as night guards and splint therapy.

Sleep Apnea

Dentistry plays a crucial role in treating obstructive sleep apnea, with oral appliances recommended as primary therapy by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.

Teeth Grinding

Teeth grinding, a common habit, is addressed with custom oral appliances, protecting against nighttime wear.

Injections Treatment for TMD

Injections for TMD offer lasting relaxation to muscles causing chronic headaches and TMJ pain. Results last for months, with reapplication available.

Family

Comprehensive Dental Care for All Ages
Our family services cater to the dental needs of every family member:

Sealant

Sealants reduce childhood cavities, filling grooves on molars for a smooth surface and easier cleaning. Research confirms a 90% reduction in tooth decay in sealed molars.

Infant Exams

Infant exams, following AAPD recommendations, start between six months to one year. Proper diet, hygiene, and pacifier use are discussed for strong oral health.

Frenectomies

Frenectomies address tight frenum or frenulum attachments, instantly improving movement and addressing concerns like tongue-tie.

Pediatric Restorative Dentistry

Pediatric restorative dentistry provides customized treatment plans for children, ensuring comfort and excellent care.

Sports Mouthguards

Sports mouthguards protect children engaged in after-school sports or activities, reducing the risk of fractured or damaged teeth.
