Restoring Your Mouth to Health

Crowns & Bridges

We can rebuild your broken, cracked or missing teeth with porcelain fused to precious metal crowns or bridges. New technologies allow us to bond these restorations directly to your tooth structure. This results in a strong and natural-looking restoration that is healthier for your teeth and gums. Our goal is to restore your mouth to optimal function and esthetics. Back to Services.

 

Metal-Free Tooth-Colored Fillings

The old-fashioned silver-mercury fillings that were common when we were kids can often be replaced with more attractive and natural-looking tooth-colored restorations. Imagine a smile without the gray and black shadows of silver-mercury fillings! These metal-free and mercury-free fillings will not only brighten your smile, they can actually make your teeth stronger. Back to Services.

 

Implants

Strong, secure, comfortable, and attractive-implants are the modern alternative to bridges and dentures. With implants you can smile and eat with confidence. If you thought the look, feel and function of your natural teeth were gone forever, ask us about our specialized dental implant treatment methods. Implants can support single missing teeth, multiple missing teeth, or removable dentures. They can never decay, and are the closet and most natural replacement for missing teeth.

TMJ-Temporo-Mandibular Joint Disorder

T.M.J. is an acronym for Temporo-Mandibular Joint. This joint is located in front of your ear and connects the temporal bone of the skull with the mandible bone of the lower jaw. If you grind or clench your teeth or if you suffer from headaches, earaches, difficulty opening and closing your mouth, clicking or popping noises in the joint, or other discomforts, you may have a TMJ disorder. We can analyze your condition and recommend a treatment option that will provide relief. Back to Services.

 

Endodontic Therapy

If one of your teeth becomes injured or diseased, it can often be saved through a specialized procedure known as root canal (endodontic) therapy. Our gentle endodontic therapy, often completed in one visit, enables us to comfortably prevent serious dental conditions associated with tooth loss. Back to Services.

 

Periodontal Surgery

In cases of advanced periodontal disease (gum disease), we may need to perform periodontal surgery to restore your mouth to health. Treatments can include reducing the depth of the pockets between your teeth and gums where bacteria thrive, and replacing lost bone and soft tissue (gums) through grafting. These treatments are gently performed by our skilled periodontist whose advanced specialty training insures the highest level of care. Throughout the process, as we return your teeth and gums to health, we will always focus on your comfort and well being. Back to Services.
