Sealants

Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings that are applied to the grooves on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to protect from tooth decay. They act as a barrier to protect the teeth against decay-causing bacteria.

sealants

Most tooth decay in children and teens occurs on the surfaces of these teeth. Sealants protect the teeth from decay by keeping bacteria and food particles out of these grooves.

Restoration of Implants

Dental Implants are one of several options when it comes to replacing missing or damaged teeth. Dental implants vary in shape and size and implants can vary based upon the number of missing or damaged teeth and whether the patient prefers their replacement teeth to be fixed or removable.

We offer State of the Art, enhanced denture retention, replacement of lost teeth and/or cosmetic replacement of congenitally missing teeth. This helps increase function, meaning you can throw away your dentures.

The restoration of a dental implant refers to designing, fabricating, and attaching the replacement teeth to the implant.

Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

It is estimated that 80 percent of American adults currently suffer from some form of Periodontal disease.

disease

Periodontal diseases range from simple gum inflammation to more serious diseases that can result in damage to the soft tissue and bone that support the teeth.

Besides the obvious threat to your oral health, research is indicating negative health effects of periodontal diseases that go far beyond your mouth. Whether it is stopped, slowed, or gets worse depends mostly on how you care for your teeth and gums every day, from this point forward.

Having your teeth cleaned on a regular basis greatly reduces your chances of periodontal disease.

Digital X-Rays

X-ray images are among the best tools your dentist has for keeping your mouth and teeth healthy. By taking a closer look at the structures of your mouth with an X-ray, your dentist can diagnose problems in the teeth and jaws.

xrays

Most people require X-rays on a regular basis so that their dental condition can be monitored. How often this happens will depend on your medical and dental history and current condition.

By using Digital X-rays, your dentist can reduce radiation by as much as 80 percent!

Root Canals

A Root Canal is a treatment used to repair and save a tooth that has become badly decayed. Unless treated, abscesses may form and the tissue around the tooth can become infected.

root

Once a tooth has emerged through the gums, its nerve is no longer vitally important to its health. The nerve's function is sensory, that is, to provide the sensation of hot and cold. The removal of a nerve will not adversely affect the function of the tooth.
