Cosmetic Dentistry
In a study completed by the American Academy of Cosmetic
Dentistry, researchers found that 9 out of 10 patients agree
that an attractive smile is an important asset. They also found
that 75% of Americans agree that an unattractive smile can
hurt an applicant’s chance for career success.
Having a smile you love can increase your confidence and
boost your self-image. If you are unhappy with your smile,
you may be surprised to know that modern cosmetic dentistry
offers many solutions to common aesthetic problems. Our
office provides the full spectrum of cosmetic dentistry to our
patients.


Cosmetic Dentistry
Whether you are seeking simple tooth whitening or to repair
crooked or damaged teeth, we can help you to achieve a more
attractive smile.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain Veneers are artistically designed custom thin
porcelain layers that are bonded on to teeth to create straight,
healthy looking teeth without the use of orthodontics. It is
usually a 2 visit procedure
Lumineers
Lumineers (trademark)are porcelain veneers made with
patented Cerinate (trademark)porcelain technology.


Cosmetic Dentistry
They are the painless alternative to traditional veneers and
crowns. They can permanently change the color of your teeth
and align them in two dental visits.
Invisalign
Invisalign® is a revolutionary way to help you get even,
straight teeth without noticeable, painful metal braces.
Virtually undetectable, Invisalign® aligners are made of
strong, clear plastic that gradually guides your teeth into
perfect alignment.


Tooth Whitening
As we age, our teeth lose the brilliant whiteness that implies
good dental health and youth. The unsightly stains associated
with tobacco, dark liquids,
and other factors can leave us feeling less-than-confident
about our smiles. Fortunately, there is a simple solution to
this dental problem: cosmetic tooth whitening. Our practice
provides convenient, take-home tooth-whitening programs
and in-office ZOOM! tooth whitening to our patients.


Restorative Care
we carefully diagnose each patient and their needs and
recommend the best solutions. Below you will find more
information and explanations about restorative care options.
We encourage our patient to talk with our Dentists about all
of the options and preventive care as well.
Crowns & Bridges
When a tooth is fractured, has a large old filling, or is severely
damaged by decay, your dentist may recommend the
placement of a crown. Crowns strengthen and protect the
remaining tooth structure and can improve the appearance of
your smile.


Restorative Care
Dental Implants
The consequences of tooth loss can be prevented by replacing
the lost tooth in a timely manner. Although there are several
options to replace a missing tooth the number one choice for
replacing lost teeth are dental implants.
Implants are tiny titanium screws or posts that are surgically
placed in the bone. Once integrated into bone they act like
roots onto which small posts are attached which protrude
through the gums.


Restorative Care
Dentures
Over time, people’s teeth tend to naturally deteriorate. When
a tooth has deteriorated substantially, it often needs to be
extracted; and when multiple teeth are extracted, dentures
may be the most appropriate solution. Dentures can create a
natural and healthy looking set of teeth. In addition, a
properly fitting set of dentures can greatly enhance your
smile and sense of self-esteem.


Periodontal Care
For Americans in their 30s and beyond, the threat of gum
disease (periodontal disease) is a very real and potentially
dangerous condition.
Gum disease is particularly dangerous because the
progression of the disease is often painless, going undetected
until it creates serious problems.Although genetics may play a
small role in its development, doctors agree that gum disease
is most often directly related to how well people care for their
teeth and gums.


Preventive Care
Preventive dentistry is the general term for dental carerelated procedures or treatments that are meant to prevent
oral health problems from rearing their ugly heads. A great
example of a preventive dentistry procedure is sealants. A
sealant is a layer of a protective, long-lasting special plastic.
Dental Sealants
Sealants protect the occlusal surfaces, inhibiting bacterial
growth and providing a smooth surface that increases the
probability that the surface will stay clean. The ultimate goal
of sealants is penetrating into the pit and fissures of the tooth
and sealing them from bacteria.


Preventive Care
Space Maintainers
Space maintainers are appliances made to custom fit your
child’s mouth to maintain the space intended for the
permanent tooth when it decides to come in.
They do this by “holding open” the empty space left by a lost
tooth by preventing movement in the remaining teeth until
the permanent tooth takes its natural position in the child’s
mouth.


Preventive Care
Fluoride Treatments
The fluoride ion comes from the element fluorine. Fluoride,
either applied topically to erupted teeth, or ingested orally
(called systemic fluoride) during tooth development, helps to
prevent tooth decay, strengthen tooth enamel, and reduce the
harmful effects of plaque.


Dental Care for Infants
Most pediatric dentists will agree that regular dental care
should begin by one year of age, with a dental check-up at
least twice each consecutive year for most children. Some
children may need more frequent evaluations and care.
In accordance with this recommendation, the following dental
checklist for infants and toddlers has been provided by the
American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry


Dentistry for Anxious Patients
Through the modern miracle of sedation dentistry, dentists
can treat anxious patients and often accomplish dental work
in one or two visits that may have required many more visits
without it.
Nitrous oxide and intravenous (I.V.) sedation are the two
conscious sedation techniques most commonly used to help
patients relax.
