Implants
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants may be an option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason.
Comprehensive Exams
Comprehensive exams help to to identify any health risks that you may have, to identify current teeth and gum conditions, to identify caries before they cause further decay, and to create a treatment plan so you understand what you need and your options for services.
Fillings
Fillings are a way to restore a tooth damaged by decay back to its normal function and shape.
Cleanings
Cleanings include checking the cleanliness of your teeth and gums, removing any plaque and tartar, polishing your teeth, flossing between your teeth, and reviewing recommended brushing and flossing techniques
Dental X-Rays
The benefits of X-rays are well known: They help dentists diagnose common problems, such as cavities, gum disease and some types of infections.
Root Canals
A root canal is a treatment used to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or becomes infected. Without treatment, the tissue surrounding the tooth will become infected and abscesses may form.
Extraction/Oral Surgery
There are times when extracting a tooth might be in your best long-term health interest. If that happens there are effective methods to remove the tooth safely and efficiently, and with minimal discomfort.
Crowns
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth to cover the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance.
