- Dental ExaminationOur practice goal is to improve our patients’ oral health and enhance the beauty of their smiles. We provide a comprehensive examination, diagnosis and treatment plan for each and every patient. During our “educational consultation” appointment, each patient has the opportunity to discuss their concerns, fears and needs in an unhurried and relaxed environment. Working with each patient, we customize a treatment plan that is appropriate for them. We like to say that an educated patient can “drive the bus” of their own treatment.

- Oral Cancer Screening
- Teeth CleaningCalculus cannot be removed by brushing and can only be removed through a regular dental cleaning performed by a hygienist. Untreated, plaque can result in the pockets of the gums becoming deeper, a severe condition known as periodontitis. These deeper pockets expose more of the supporting bone and tissue that retain the teeth and prevent decay and infection. Severe periodontal disease can result in oral problems such as tooth loss and tissue recession as the bone breaks down and the teeth become demineralized.

- CrownsImplants come in two varieties, endosteal and subperiosteal. Endosteal implants are placed in the jawbone and subperiosteal dental implants are for people who do not have adequate jawbone to place in the graft. Dental implants can hold dental crowns, caps and bridges.
- Bridges
- Dental Bonding
- Root Canal Treatment
- Deep Cleaning
- DenturesTeeth may be lost due to periodontal disease, injury or some other trauma. With p eriodontal disease, bacteria gradually eats away at the underlying jawbone. When a tooth is not replaced immediately, the jawbone area beneath the tooth shrinks because of the lack of chewing and biting stimulation. Dentures and bridges do not provide this stimulation and can accelerate the rate of depletion.

- Bone GraftingAfter the procedure, you may have some swelling in the surgery area. There can be some bleeding from the mouth or nose. Make sure you do not blow your nose or sneeze with force. Your dentist may give you pain medicine, antibiotics and anti-bacterial mouthwash to prevent infection. After a sinus procedure, you need to wait for the bone material to harden. Depending on the bone grafting material used, the dental implants may be placed in four to nine months. The cost of a sinus lift depends on the complexity and material used for bone grafting.
