Teeth Whitening
Whitening is one of the simplest and least expensive techniques and it can give you a brilliant smile you’ll be proud of. Our custom made whitening kits to use at home are comfortable, easy to use, and deliver a great result.

Lumineers/Veneers
If your teeth are chipped, broken, or discolored, porcelain veneers are a great way to change the color and shape of your teeth.  A porcelain veneer is a covering over the tooth that gives natural color and bridges small gaps.  Veneers can be a great alternative to braces for slight orthodontic problems and provide a beautiful smile in a short amount of time. The results are simply gorgeous!

Bonding
Dental bonding can produce amazing improvements by fixing chips in your teeth.  Bonding is covering the front surface of teeth with durable plastic to either change the tooth's color or shape, or to rebuild broken teeth.  Bonding is similar to veneers, however, tooth colored resin material is used instead of porcelain for a lower cost alternative to improve your smile.  Bonding is great for children who have chipped front teeth and for adults who need an alternative for veneers.

Metal Free Crowns and Bridges
Crowns, or caps, are used to restore broken or cracked teeth. The new metal-free crowns eliminate the ugly black line you may have seen next to the gumline on older crowns. Porcelain bridgework can replace missing teeth in a naturally beautiful way. Since bridgework is bonded into place the result is solid and looks and feels like your own teeth.

Tooth Colored Fillings
Inlays and Onlays are tooth-colored restorations that are used in place of silver fillings on the chewing surfaces of back teeth.  This approach has become very popular because silver (mercury) fillings are not safe and are less attractive.  Larger fillings on back teeth often require a stronger and properly contoured restoration, such as porcelain inlays or onlays. 

 

Single Visit Root Canal Therapy
Single visit root canal therapy is performed to quickly eliminate tooth pain caused by injury or infection. The procedure can save the tooth from extraction and preserve it as a naturally functioning and comfortable tooth again.

CEREC single visit crowns and onlays - CEREC technology is revolutionary to dentistry because it creates a beautiful, esthetic, strong and durable ceramic restoration that is precisely bonded to the tooth, and is accomplish in one visit. Click here to learn more about CEREC.

Removable Full and Partial Dentures
When dentures are indicated we take the time necessary to create attractive, well fitting dentures. They can’t beat a set of your own teeth when they are healthy and straight, but when natural teeth can’t be restored dentures look great and chew well.

Dental Implants Restoration
Implants are an increasingly popular alternative to dentures and bridges. They have many advantages, including their natural appearance, improved comfort and unequaled convenience. If you are considering implants, we can discuss the considerations and help you make the decision that is right for you.
 

Non-surgical Periodontal Treatment
Periodontal Disease starts when plaque and tartar accumulate at the base of your teeth and affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth.  The bacteria in the plaque leads to an infection in the gums (gingiva) called Gingivitis. Gingivitis is an early state of periodontal disease where the gums may become red, swollen, and bleed easily.If left untreated, the infection can spread through the oral cavity and into the rest of the body. The spread of bacteria may cause infection, delayed healing and generalized illness.. Because of the bacterial infection associated with Periodontitis, tooth abscesses are also common.
Periodontal disease is treatable and preventable. We provide you with professional care in our office and instructions on proper home care as well.
