Routine Teeth Cleanings are crucial to keeping on top of your dental hygiene. Recommended every six months, your routine cleaning allows our trained hygienists to remove tartar and plaque that builds up on your teeth over time and provide a deep cleaning that brushing and flossing can't accomplish alone. It is also a great opportunity for us to inspect your teeth, gums, and mouth for any other issues, including cavities, early signs of gum disease, and more.
Periodontal Disease, also known as gum disease, is an infection of the gum tissue and surrounding bone and is a major contributor to tooth loss. Often evident in the early stages by bleeding, swollen, or detached gums, periodontis can have serious repercussions to your body's health as a whole. Seeking proper treatment at the first sign of infection is key to restoring health to your gums. Procedures, such as periodontal scaling, planing, or laser surgery, will help remove the excessive buildup of tartar and infection below the gum line, allowing your gums to heal and reattach to your teeth.
Digital Radiography, or x-rays, provide our staff with a close-up view of your teeth, gums, and mouth. With the progression of dental technology, digital x-ray machines offer enhanced and highly accurate images and have replaced traditional film x-ray machines. Through the use of these tools, our staff is able to detect problems or abnormalities earlier, allowing for faster, more effective treatment.
Are you unhappy with your smile? Not only can your teeth affect your self-esteem, but they can also impede daily functions, such as normal chewing or speech. Restorative dentistry allows you to both address the aesthetics of your smile while also restoring limited function or pain caused by missing teeth, misalignments, and gaps in the mouth. Through the use of dental fillings, crowns, bridges, and more, our professional dental team can correct these issues and provide you with natural and cost effective solutions to all of your dental needs.
Fillings are a routine way of addressing cavities and tooth decay in both children and adults. Our trained dental staff will remove the decaying tooth material and clean the area thoroughly. The affected area will then be filled and reshaped using a composite resin, porcelain, amalgam (silver), or gold filling material.
Crowns and Bridges offer a permanent functional and aesthetic fix to correct gaps, damaged, or missing teeth. Cemented in place, crowns act as a cap to cover a fractured or severely damaged tooth, giving the appearance of a natural and healthy tooth. Bridges are often used when bridging one or more missing teeth. They cover the span of the gap and are typically cemented in place to the bordering natural teeth.
Extractions are the removal of your tooth or teeth from the socket. There can be a number of reasons why your dentist may suggest an extraction, including baby teeth that won't fall out, crowding of teeth in the mouth, decayed or severely damaged teeth, wisdom teeth extraction, and more.
Tooth Bonding is a quick and painless procedure that can help the appearance of discolored or chipped teeth. While not a permanent solution, bonding can provide an affordable option that can still last for years. Using a natural-toned resin material, your dentist will apply and shape the resin, curing with a light to ensure it is bonded to your tooth's surface.
Dental Implants are artificial tooth roots, typically shaped like a screw. These implants are attached directly into your jawbone, providing a sturdy foundation to support prosthetic teeth and mimic the roots of your natural teeth. Your dentist will work with you to develop a treatment and ongoing care plan, ensuring your implants, gum, and teeth are healthy.
