Regular Checkups

The best form of dental treatment is prevention. Our Hygienists will discuss home care needs, flossing and brushing to help monitor your oral health. We want children and adults to have a positive first experience at our office.

Mercury Free Practice

New white composite fillings can replace those old, dark, metal fillings that are keeping your smile from being as bright as possible. We are a "mercury free practice" and no longer use "silver" fillings. Smaller portions of healthy tooth material are removed when using composite fillings than when metal fillings are used. This saves more of the good portion of the tooth keeping the structure sound.

Comprehensive Health Examinations

The oral examination includes an oral cancer screening and a periodontal (gum) disease check. We'll also ask about your medical history, take your blood pressure, and uncover any general health issues that could relate back to your oral health.

Sealants

Decay often occurs on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. In order to prevent decay on those surfaces, sealants, clear plastic materials, are applied to act as a barrier against these decay-prone areas. Sealants have long-term effects to help avoid tooth decay.

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is needed if your tooth's pulp is irreversibly damaged. The procedure can save teeth that otherwise would require extraction.

Periodontal Treatment

The single most important factor in stopping periodontal disease is the control of bacteria. If plaque starts to creep below the gumline, gingivitis can deteriorate into a condition known as periodontitis, a more serious form of gum disease. We can work with you to develop a specialized periodontal program that you can do on your own, thus avoiding serious gum disease treatment. A number of treatments that are conservative in use are available.

Diode Laser

Studies show laser surgery can achieve killing 99% of the bacteria that causes periodontal disease. Laser curettage offers a treatment option which transforms conventional cleaning with uncertain results into effective treatment. Therefore, the diode laser can prevent you from needing more extensive periodontal treatments and surgeries. The laser is especially useful for cosmetic procedures and several are performed without anesthesia. This results in a safe and effective treatment and causes no bleeding or post-operative discomfort.
