Fillings

There are many advantages to tooth colored restorations. Resin onlays are bonded to the teeth creating a tight, superior fit to the natural tooth. Such restorations can be used in instances where much of the tooth structure has been lost. The tooth remains intact and stronger. Learn more about Fillings.

Orthodontics / Invisalign

Traditional braces are available in clear and silver. Every color imaginable can be used to make your own statement. In some cases appliances are used in young children first to alter the shapes of the jaws to set up the proper alignment of the new teeth. Learn more about Orthodontics / Invisalign.

Crowns

Most dentistry looks like dentistry. Our goal is to provide dentistry that is undetectable. We replace existing crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel like your natural teeth. Learn more about Crowns.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front and top surfaces of the teeth. They are an ideal choice for improving your smile and have become increasingly popular due to their versatility. Learn more about Porcelain Veneers.

Endodontics (Root Canals)

At the center of your tooth is pulp. Pulp is a collection of blood vessels that helps to build the surrounding tooth. Infection of the pulp can be caused by trauma to the tooth, deep decay, cracks and chips, or repeated dental procedures. Learn more about Endodontics (Root Canals).

Sealants

Highly effective in preventing decay on the biting surfaces of your chewing teeth, sealants are a simple procedure in which a tooth-colored acrylic "coating" is painted onto the surface of the tooth. This effectively "seals" the deep grooves acting as a barrier, protecting enamel from plaque and acids. Learn more about Sealants.

Dentures

A prosthetic replacement of all natural teeth, which are missing. Dentures can be a viable treatment option when all teeth are missing either on the upper or lower arch. Usually made of a lightweight resin material, they can be comfortable to wear when the fit is adjusted precisely. Learn more about Dentures.

Temporomandibular Disorders

TMJ stands for Temporomandibular Joint, which is the name for each joint (right and left) that connects your jaw to your skull. Since some types of TMJ problems can lead to more serious conditions, early detection and treatment are important. Learn more about TMJ Disorders.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are metal anchors, which act as tooth root substitutes. They are surgically placed into the jawbone. Small posts are then attached to the implant, which protrude through the gums. These posts provide stable anchors for artificial replacement teeth. Learn more about Dental Implants.

Bridges

All of your teeth play an important role in speaking, chewing and in maintaining proper alignment of other teeth. Tooth loss doesn't necessarily have to occur as you age, but if you do lose teeth, they must be replaced to maintain proper function of your mouth. Learn more about Bridges.

Bonding

The tooth is prepared for the procedure by lightly etching the surface and applying a bonding liquid. Once the liquid sets, a plastic resin is applied and sculpted into the desired shape by the dentist. Learn more about Bonding.

Nitrous Oxide

Bite Stabilization

Bite Stabilization utilizes Dental Bonding to allow all of your teeth to land at the same time when both jaw joints are seated in their sockets. This treatment does not hurt and is very conservative. That means that the patient does not typically need braces, new fillings or crowns. Novocain is not necessary because in most cases, drilling on teeth is not required. Learn more about Bite Stabilization.
