General and Cosmetic Dental Services
With general dentistry, cosmetic services, pediatric dentistry, and orthodontics all available in one location, we make it easy for you and your family to receive the care you need.
- Bonding: Dental bonding is a conservative cosmetic treatment, which uses composite resin to repair and restore the tooth surface.
- Bridges: Bridges use prosthetic teeth to “bridge” the gaps caused by missing teeth. Traditional bridges are fixed in place and are anchored by crowns placed on the healthy teeth on each side of the gap. Bridges can also be attached to dental implants.
- Crowns: A crown is a custom-made “cap” which covers the entire visible surface of the tooth. Crowns are used to strengthen and protect teeth with extensive decay, breakage, or cracks, restore a tooth after a root canal procedure, cover a discolored or irregularly shaped tooth, serve as an anchor for a dental bridge, or complete a dental implant procedure.
- Dentures: Conventional full dentures are created and placed after the gums have healed following any extractions. Immediate dentures are placed directly after extraction, and typically require regular adjustments for fit and comfort. Partial dentures are secured to adjacent teeth, and, unlike bridges, are removable. Implant-supported full and partial dentures are also an option.
- Extractions: It’s always our goal to save your natural teeth, but sometimes extractions are necessary. Teeth might be too damaged to save due to trauma, infection, deep decay, or gum disease. Baby teeth that don’t fall out, wisdom teeth that pressure adjacent teeth, or severely overcrowded teeth might also be best treated with extraction.
- Fillings: When decay is caught early, our dentists can treat your cavity conservatively by restoring your tooth’s function and appearance with a filling.
- Nightguards: Tooth grinding, or bruxism, puts hundreds of pounds of pressure on the teeth. Grinding damages teeth, dental work, and jaw joints. We can create a custom nightguard tailored to your teeth and mouth for the most effective protection and the most comfortable fit.
- Root Canal Treatment: When bacteria infect the tooth pulp, a root canal procedure is necessary. Root canal treatment prevents more widespread infection by removing infected pulp tissue and saves your natural tooth by restoring tooth strength and structure with a crown.
- Veneers: A dental veneer is a thin, durable porcelain shell that is custom fabricated to cover the front of a tooth. Veneers can restore the appearance of teeth with chips, cracks, and stains, can close small gaps between the teeth, and can reshape misshapen or slightly misaligned teeth.
- Teeth Whitening: In-office teeth whitening is fast, effective, and long lasting, as we use gels with a higher concentration of peroxide than those gels found in OTC products. In-office whitening usually takes 30-90 minutes. We can also create custom gel trays for professional whitening treatments at home!
