Gum Disease
We emphasize the fight against gum disease because it is the silent killer of teeth. Patients who brush and floss regularly can still have gum disease, which is why regular check-ups are so important. We teach you everything you need to know to keep up the good fight agains gum disease at home, but you may still need scaling and root planning in our office. The latest research indicates gum disease may increase chances of other health problems. With the latest technologies and procedures, we have more options available to combat periodontal disease.
Cosmetic Services
Cosmetic dentistry is an aspect of modern dentistry that allows us to conservatively restore your teeth back to their natural strength and beauty, it also allows us to enhance the appearance of your smile by closing gaps, straightening teeth for a more youthful, clean, and healthy-looking smile.
Every smile is as unique as the person who wears it. We take great care in designing a smile that suits you. A series of careful facial measurements will help us to create a smile that is in proportion to your bone structure, age, and gender. Thanks to advances in computer technology, we are also able to show you an image of your new smile before you ever begin the procedure. Through digital imaging software, we can manipulate a digital photograph of your existing smile and show you your redesigned smile. This is an excellent way to share your excitement with your family and friends.
Patient Comfort and Technology
Modern technology is an integral part of Family Dentistry. The use of intra-oral cameras, for example, allows us to see your teeth magnified on a high-resolution monitor, allowing for better diagnosis and more conservative treatment. Our digital radiography systems allow us to view your x-rays immediately on a large monitor with you to better understand your dental concerns.
Communication is extremely enhanced with digital cameras. Both patient and doctor are able to better understand functional and cosmetic concerns to a much higher level. Digital cameras are extensively used to this end.
