Fillings - Silver and Tooth Colored
Advances in modern dental materials and techniques increasingly offer new ways to create more pleasing, natural-looking smiles. As a result, dentists and patients today have several choices when it comes to selecting materials used to repair missing, worn, damaged or decayed teeth.

The advent of these new materials has not eliminated the usefulness of more traditional dental restoratives, which include base metal alloys and dental amalgam. The strength and durability of traditional dental materials continue to make them useful for situations where restored teeth must withstand extreme forces that result from chewing, such as in the back of the mouth. To find out which type is right for you, contact our office.

Crowns & Bridges
A crown ("cap") is a tooth-like covering placed over a carefully prepared pre-existing tooth. Crowns serve many functions, such as to strengthen, restore or improve the appearance of your natural tooth. A crown can support the tooth when there is no longer sufficient tooth structure left to place a filling. Crowns may also be used to protect the structure of a tooth that is fractured or broken, and can be attached to bridges or dentures.

A bridge is a custom device anchored to neighboring teeth that replaces one or more missing teeth. When a lost tooth is replaced with bridgework, the teeth on either side of the missing one are prepared as crowns to serve as abutments to hold the prosthetic (replacement) tooth in place.

Invisalign® Orthodontics
Invisalign orthodontics uses a series of clear removable aligners. Invisalign straightens your teeth right before your eyes. Your dentist changes the aligners about every 2 weeks, your teeth will move-little by little, week by week-until you've reached the planned result. The aligners are worn continuously except when you eat and clean your teeth.

Invisalign is an invisible solution. So you won't draw undue attention to your mouth while in treatment. In fact, virtually no one will know you're wearing them unless you tell them.

Since Invisalign is practically invisible, there's no unwarranted attention to your mouth. In fact, very few people will notice at all - unless you tell them. They're comfortable to wear and remove easily when you eat, brush, and floss.

All across the country, people like you now have great smiles and straighter teeth, thanks to Invisalign. Why not join them? To find an Invisalign Certified Orthodontist or Dentist in your area, just click here. That gorgeous smile you want is just a click away.

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 very natural. 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 some people also 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. We will give you a thorough evaluation to determine whether you are a good candidate for dental implants.

Root Canals
Inside each tooth lies a slender strand of "pulp," which contains nerves and provides nutrients to the tooth. This pulp reaches all the way down to the tooth's root. When a tooth's pulp becomes infected or irreversibly inflamed, endodontic treatment is urgently needed-otherwise the tooth itself may be at risk of dying. Root canals are used to save teeth in such situations.

After administering anesthesia, an opening is made through the biting surface of the tooth. The pulp is then removed and the pulp chamber is sealed. The tooth is then sealed with a crown made of porcelain or gold. Most of the time, a root canal is a relatively simple procedure with little or no discomfort involving one visit.

Dentures & Partials
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. Replacing missing teeth will benefit your appearance and your health. Without support from the denture, facial muscles sag, making a person look older. You'll be able to eat and speak-things that people often take for granted until their natural teeth are lost.

Removable partial dentures usually consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-colored plastic bases, which are connected by metal framework. Removable partial dentures attach to your natural teeth with metal clasps or devices called precision attachments. Precision attachments are generally more esthetic than metal clasps and they are nearly invisible.

To find out which type is right for you, contact our office.

Preventive & Periodontal - Gum Treatment
Regular cleanings remove soft (plaque) and hard (tartar, calculus, or stains) deposits from your teeth. The primary purpose of having your teeth cleaned is to prevent or delay the progression of periodontal (gum) disease and to maintain good oral health. An examination of your mouth is usually done at each cleaning.

The frequency of your professional teeth cleaning will depend on the health of your teeth and gums. Healthy children and adults should have their teeth cleaned at least twice a year. If you are at risk of periodontal disease because of age, tobacco use, rate of accumulation of deposits, personal oral hygiene practices, medications, or medical conditions such as diabetes or HIV infection, your teeth may need to be cleaned more often.

Bonding
A smile can be the most eye-catching feature of a face. With dentistry's many advances, you no longer have to settle for stained, chipped, or misshapen teeth. Even the most subtle change in your smile can make a dramatic difference in the way you look and feel about yourself.

Bonding can improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, broken, cracked, stained, or have spaces between them. With bonding, tooth-colored materials are applied, or bonded, to the tooth surface.

Bleaching
Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look they've been dreaming of with our simple "whitening" procedures.

It's safe, quick, and inexpensive. Just let us know at any appointment if you would like to begin whitening your teeth. You can lighten only your upper teeth or both the upper and lower, depending on how much of each shows when you talk and smile.

Veneers
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of teeth.
