Our Services Consultations:
We
know that it is essential for patients to feel absolutely comfortable
when choosing a dentist as well as a “dental home”. That is why we
offer complimentary consultations. At this time you are invited to meet
us, see our office, and with no obligation or pressure discuss your
individual needs and desires for a beautiful smile.
Diagnostics: In
order to insure success in our procedures, we take the necessary time to
fully and thoroughly evaluate your present dental condition. We use the
appropriate diagnostic tools such as X-rays, models, photographs, visual
examination, full periodontal exam, cancer screening, and esthetic
evaluations. Our goal is to give our patients the necessary information
and education so that they may enjoy a beautiful, healthy smile for many
years to come.
Cleanings: We
believe a good foundation is the key to optimal oral health, therefore,
our periodontal care is of utmost priority. We customize cleanings to
properly care for your specific periodontal (gums & bone) needs.
Whether a six month checkup or full periodontal therapy, our hygienists
will always strive to provide the very best treatment while maintaining
your absolute comfort. You can even watch a movie while you visit! Try
it, we know you'll like it!
Fillings: Modern
dentistry has allowed us the pleasure of combining beauty as well as
strength when filling teeth. We take pride in "restoring"
teeth to as close to their original strength and appearance with
composite resins and ceramics. Since patient comfort is top priority,
our clinical staff and doctors go the extra mile to make coming to the
dentist a whole new positive experience.
Crowns:
Crowns are used to restore both anterior and posterior teeth that
have been broken or are at high risk of doing so due to over-sized old
fillings or fractures. There are a variety of materials used to
construct these and by working with the finest laboratories in the
country we are pleased to produce crowns that look and feel like your
real teeth.
Bridges: Bridges are fixed, or non-removable prosthesis constructed
to replace one or more missing teeth. The teeth on either side of the
existing space are used to anchor the bridge to restore functionality as
well as esthetics. We are now able to construct beautiful porcelain over
metal as well as full porcelain and resin-based bridges to produce the
best results for each particular situation.
