OUR DENTAL TREATMENTS

DENTAL CLEANINGS AND EXAMS

Scheduling dental exams every six months helps assess oral health, identify potential issues, and offer guidance. Our dental exam includes a tooth decay check, cleaning, x-rays, cancer screening, and addressing additional concerns.

TOOTH FILLINGS

Decayed teeth weaken and may need fillings. Our dental office uses only mercury-free composite restorations to reinforce teeth. They look natural, bond precisely to your teeth, and maintain structural integrity.

DENTURES AND PARTIALS

Dentures, which are also referred to as false teeth, are custom-made prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth. They are designed to be supported by the surrounding hard and soft tissues of the mouth.

Partial dentures are a viable option when there are some healthy teeth remaining. They typically consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored plastic base, and in some cases, they are connected by a metal framework to secure the partial denture in place within the mouth.

EXTRACTIONS

In the case of severe decay, breakage, or positioning problems, a tooth may require extraction. Our team ensures that you are comfortable throughout the entire process and that the affected area is well taken care of after treatment. We will also discuss potential options for dental implants or orthodontic treatments as needed.

ROOT CANALS

Root canal therapy is a crucial procedure that helps save a tooth that has been infected. This treatment helps in preserving the natural tooth instead of having it extracted. The process involves removing the infected nerve tissue, cleaning and sterilizing the inside of the tooth, and filling the canals with a rubbery material called gutta-percha. After the root canal, a protective crown is usually placed on the tooth to ensure it functions properly.
