Effective Oral Care For a Healthier Smile

General Dentistry

Cleanings

Dental prophylaxis (commonly known as a dental checkup/cleaning) involves the removal of plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth, helping to prevent cavities and gum disease. It typically includes polishing the teeth along with a thorough examination to check for and maintain good oral health.

Periodontal Treatment

Periodontal treatment focuses on managing gum disease along with maintaining the health of the supporting structures of your teeth. To protect your gums, we offer preventative periodontal care.

If your gums are infected, we’ll perform scaling and root planing, which involves deep cleaning beneath the gum line and smoothing out the tooth roots to allow the gums to firmly reattach themselves and seal out bacteria. Some advanced cases of periodontal/gum disease may require surgical intervention.

X-Rays

Dental X-rays allow dentists to view the condition of your teeth, bones, and surrounding tissues, which helps in diagnosing problems that are not visible during a visual examination. X-Rays are crucial for detecting problems such as cavities, infections, and bone loss early, ensuring timely intervention and effective treatment.

Solea Laser Dentistry

Solea is a groundbreaking technology that uses the first FDA-cleared, CO2 dental laser system for both hard and soft tissue procedures. It has replaced traditional dental drills in most treatments at our practice, offering an experience that minimizes pain, vibrations, and noise. Because of this, many patients at our practice forgo anesthesia altogether.

This innovative system uses an intense, narrow beam of light energy to reshape or remove affected soft tissues, effectively addressing a range of oral health needs. Whether treating gums, enamel, dentin, or bone tissues, Solea’s precise and efficient approach significantly reduces your treatment time and discomfort.

Can be used for:

  • Removing Cavities
  • Placing Fillings
  • Root Canal Therapy
  • Treating/Removing Damaged Tissue
  • & More!

Restorative Dentistry

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing your missing teeth with little intrusion. We surgically insert titanium fixtures into the gums, which then integrate with your jawbone over a few months to serve as the foundation for the restoration.

This procedure does not require preparation of neighboring teeth, as opposed to bridges, and helps maintain your jawbone health while preventing bone loss over time.

CEREC Same-Day Crowns

CEREC® is an advanced technology that allows us to create ceramic crowns in a single appointment through the use of CAD/CAM technology. Unlike the traditional process which involves three separate visits for impressions, fabrication, and placement, this innovative solution allows you to enhance your smile in just one appointment.

Bridges

Dental bridges are fixed prosthetic devices used to replace one or more of your missing teeth by spanning the gap between two healthy teeth. They help restore functionality and aesthetics, allowing for you to chew and speak easier while maintaining the natural alignment of your remaining teeth.

Oral Surgery

We offer oral surgery encompassing a variety of procedures aimed at diagnosing and treating conditions affecting your teeth, gums, and jaw. These range from tooth extractions and dental implants to corrective jaw surgery, which can all significantly improve your oral health and quality of life.

Anesthesia-Free Fillings

Anesthesia-free fillings utilize innovative techniques and technologies to offer a painless alternative for repairing cavities, making your dental visits more comfortable. By using methods such Solea Laser Dentistry (#solea-laser-dentistry), we can effectively remove decay and apply fillings without the need for numbing, allowing for a quick and less stressful experience.

Dentures

Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace your missing teeth, helping restore both function and aesthetics for individuals who have lost their natural teeth. The procedure typically involves an initial consultation, impressions of the mouth, and follow-up fittings to ensure comfort and proper alignment. Proper-fitting dentures can improve your chewing ability and speech while making you more confident in your smile.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Invisalign®

Invisalign® is a clear aligner system designed to straighten teeth through a series of custom-made plastic trays that are virtually invisible on your teeth. These removable aligners offer convenience for eating, drinking, and brushing, resulting in an aligned smile without the need for costly metal braces or invasive procedures.

Zoom! Teeth Whitening

Zoom! Teeth Whitening offers a noticeably whiter smile in just one hour through an in-office procedure that uses a light-activated hydrogen peroxide bleaching gel. The process involves a brief preparation to expose your teeth, followed by three 15-minute sessions of gel application and light activation (45 minutes total) to effectively break down stains and discoloration. A sensitivity-reducing, fluoride paste-gel is applied after the final session to ensure your comfort.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin shells that are bonded to the front of your natural teeth to enhance their appearance. They effectively disguise stains, chips, and gaps, while also creating a more straight and aesthetically pleasing smile.

Dental Bonding

A tooth-colored resin is applied to your teeth to repair imperfections such as chips or discoloration. This versatile treatment can improve the appearance of your smile while providing durable and natural-looking results.

Orthodontics/Braces

Orthodontic treatment, such as braces, can greatly improve the alignment and appearance of your teeth, boosting your self-confidence and overall oral health. Through the use of customized brackets, wires, and other appliances, braces work to gently guide your teeth into their ideal position, resulting in a straighter and more radiant smile.
