CEREC®: CEREC is a computerized dental restorative system that allows the dentist to make your ceramic crown, veneer, or onlay in just one visit instead of the standard 2 or 3 visits usually required.

LumiBrite™ Teeth Whitening: A gentle, safe and effective professional whitening method, Lumibrite Whitening produces whitening results in as little as 30 minutes of treatment time. Formulated with 35 percent hydrogen peroxide, this professional whitening system can be used by your dentist with or without a light. However, when used in conjunction with the Sapphire Supreme Light, the system is proven to produce greater whitening effects.

LUMINEERS®: Ultra-thin LUMINEERS are a type of dental veneer that is custom designed to give you the beautiful smile you’ve always dreamed of. Unlike traditional veneers, there are no shots, no drilling of sensitive tooth structure, and no pain. They’re even reversible, so you have nothing to lose and a beautiful smile to gain.

NuCalm™: NuCalm is a safe, proven system that quickly relaxes you without using narcotics or controlled substances. NuCalm naturally brings your body to the first stage of sleep. You will feel the same way you feel just as you are about to fall asleep. The amazing thing is, you feel this way for your entire appointment!

Snap-On Smile®: Snap-on Smile's unique, proprietary formula of hi-tech dental resin make it very thin yet extremely strong. It fits right over your own teeth to give you a beautiful, natural looking smile—even if you have stains, chips, gaps or missing teeth.

Bonding: Dental bonding is a procedure in which a tooth-colored resin material is applied to your teeth and hardened with a special light, which ultimately "bonds" the material to the tooth to restore or improve your smile.

Braces: Dental braces are used to help align and straighten teeth and help to position them with regard to a person’s bite, while also working to improve dental health. There are many options available including traditional braces, ClearCorrect®, Invisalign®, Fastbraces®, and Six Month Smiles®.

Broken Tooth / Chipped Tooth: A broken tooth requires immediate attention. Our office can help you with the care and treatment of broken teeth.

Bruxism Appliances: Stress or misalignment of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ) can cause a patient to grind or clench teeth, a condition known as bruxism. Most patients experience bruxism during sleep and are unaware that they grind teeth. Bruxism can cause tooth wear, cracks, and chips; our office offers bruxism appliances to prevent grinding and clenching.

Caps: Many people find themselves with teeth that are no longer structurally sound. Root canals, lost fillings, decay below a filling, and chipping and cracking of the enamel are things that may lead to large scale defects in a tooth's surface. When the entire surface of the tooth is a problem, but the root system is intact, a cap might be appropriate for you.

Checkup, Exam, X-ray and Cleaning: Professional dental cleanings are usually performed by Registered Dental Hygienists. Your cleaning appointment will include a dental exam and the removal of tartar, removal of plaque, and teeth polishing. Tartar is hardened plaque that has been left on the tooth for some time and is now firmly attached to the tooth surface. Tartar forms above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments. Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth. It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva. The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease! Teeth polishing helps remove stains and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.

Cosmetic Dentistry / Smile MakeOvers: Cosmetic dentistry or Smile MakeOvers are terms generally used to refer to any dental work that improves the appearance of a person's teeth, gums and/or smile.

Cosmetic Contouring: Cosmetic contouring corrects crooked teeth, chipped teeth, cracked teeth or even overlapping teeth in just one session. A few millimeters of reduction and a few millimeters of tooth-colored laminate can create a beautiful smile with no discomfort.

Cosmetic Dental Fillings (Cavity Correction): Advances in dental materials and techniques allows teeth to be restored with a more aesthetic and natural appearance. There are different types of cosmetic fillings currently available. The type used will depend on the location of the tooth and the amount of tooth structure that needs to be repaired.

Dental Implants: A dental implant is a titanium "root" or “pole” that is used as a support for the restoration that will replace one or more missing teeth.

Dental Sealants: Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings that are applied to the grooves on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to protect them from tooth decay. Most tooth decay in children and teens occurs on these surfaces. Sealants protect the chewing surfaces from tooth decay by keeping germs and food particles out of these grooves.

Dentures / Specialty Dentures: Dentures are prosthetic devices constructed to replace missing teeth, and supported by surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. Conventional dentures are removable; however there are many different denture designs, some which rely on bonding or clasping onto teeth or dental implants. Our office uses technological advancements to create dentures that are lightweight and mimic the look and feel of natural teeth.

Emergency Appointments: Dental emergencies arise when you least expect them. And while every emergency causes worry, knowing our office handles dental emergencies can help ease your mind.

Inlays and Onlays: Inlays and Onlays are indirect restorations that strengthen an existing tooth. An inlay consists of a solid substance, such as gold or porcelain, fitted to a cavity in a tooth and cemented into place. An onlay is the same as an inlay, except that it extends to replace a cusp. Crowns are onlays which completely cover all surfaces of a tooth. An inlay or onlay is used when the existing tooth is too damaged for a filling, but not damaged enough to require a dental crown or other treatment.

Mouth Guards / Sports Guards: Sports mouth guards are resilient plastic appliances designed to cover and encase an athlete's teeth and the gums and bone that support them. When a guard is worn it helps to provide protection for the hard (teeth and jaw) and soft (lips, cheeks, gums) tissues of the mouth by way of absorbing and redistributing the forces generated by traumatic blows.

Pediatric Dentistry: Pediatric Dentistry is the branch of dentistry dealing with children from birth through adolescence. Our training in pediatric dentistry addresses the special needs of children with a gentle touch.

Teeth Whitening / Teeth Bleaching: Tooth Whitening or Tooth Bleaching is ideal for people who have healthy teeth and gums but would like a whiter, brighter smile. Many teeth whitening systems are available, both at-home and in-office, including BriteSmile®, NiteWhite®, DayWhite®, LumiBrite™, ZOOM!®, and Opalescence®.

Toothache / Tooth Pain: Toothache or tooth pain is caused when the nerve root of a tooth is irritated. Dental (tooth) infection, decay, injury, or loss of a tooth are the most common causes of dental pain. Our office is here to help you if you are experiencing any tooth pain.

Veneers & LUMINEERS®: A veneer is a thin layer of restorative material placed over a tooth surface, either to improve the aesthetics of a tooth, or to protect a damaged tooth surface. There are several versions of veneers including traditional veneers and ultra-thin LUMINEERS, which require no shots, no drilling of sensitive tooth structure, and no pain. Veneers & LUMINEERS are custom made to give you a beautiful smile.
