Initial Oral Examination
Your initial oral examination includes a  comprehensive visual examination, charting, periodontal probing, diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We will also take the necessary x-rays, which includes the panoramic x-ray for proper diagnosis of the anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth as well as the bite-wing x-ray series for proper diagnosis of proximal decay of posterior teeth.

Implants
When a tooth is missing, a dental implant with a crown is an excellent treatment option for replacing it.  Although each case will be different, placing an implant generally involves two phases, surgically placing the implant and restoring the implant with a crown.

Placing the implant – For the surgical placement of the implant, your mouth is thoroughly numbed.  An opening is made in your gums, and then a channel is shaped in the bone to receive the implant.  Next we place the body of the implant into the prepared channel.  Sometimes a cover is placed onto the implant and the gums are stitched closed.  This method is called a two-stage procedure.  In other cases that allow a single-stage procedure, an extension is attached to the implant at the time of surgery.  Healing may take several months as the implant becomes fused securely to the bone.

Restoring the implant with a crown- If the first phase included closing the gums over the implant, the second phase starts with surgical re-exposure of the implant.  Another incision is made in your gums, and a small extension is placed to bring the implant above the gumline.  Then we start with a series of digital scanning to create the final crown.  The digital scans are used to make an accurate model of your mouth, including the implant.  The scans are entered into the mill which creates a crown that precisely fits the implant and your bite.  When the final crown is completed in our office the same day the crown is seated on the implant.

The benefits of an implant with a crown- An implant restored with a crown has several advantages.  The implant stops the bone loss that occurs when a tooth is lost, and it prevents the surrounding teeth from shifting into the space.  Unlike replacing the tooth with a traditional bridge,  there is no need to reduce the size of neighboring teeth.  The implant with a crown also looks and feels like your natural teeth when you chew and talk.  With proper homecare and regular checkups, your implant can be a long-term solution for a natural-looking smile.

Cosmetic Contouring
Bonding is a process in which an enamel-like material is applied to a tooth`s surface, sculpted to an ideal shape, hardened, and then polished for an ideal smile. This procedure usually can be accomplished in a single visit. Read More…

Crowns and Bridges
Crowns are synthetic caps, usually made of a material like porcelain, placed on the top of a tooth. Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth’s function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth. Read More…

Teeth Whitening
Whitening procedures have effectively restored the smile of people with stained, dull, or discolored teeth.The darker tissue of your teeth, the dentin, can become exposed as the outer layer of enamel is worn away by the effects of aging or things like caffeine and tobacco. Read More…

Root Canal Therapy
Root canals are tiny passageways that branch off from beneath the top of the tooth, coursing their way vertically downward, until they reach the tip of the root. Read More…

Toothaches
Simple toothaches can often be relieved by rinsing the mouth to clear it of debris and other matter. Sometimes, a toothache can be caused or aggravated by a piece of debris lodged between the tooth and another tooth. Avoid placing an aspirin between your tooth and gum to relieve pain, because the dissolving aspirin can actually harm your gum tissue. Read More…
