Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures, preserving jawbone integrity and offering a natural look and feel. Our board-certified periodontist, Dr. Gluck, uses high-quality implants from ZimVie and Straumann, ensuring durability and aesthetics. The process includes 3D imaging for precise placement and immediate temporization options to minimize healing time.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening at McOmber Dental uses Opalescence gels to safely brighten smiles by several shades. Custom-fitted trays allow at-home treatment with minimal sensitivity, while advanced formulas target stubborn stains from coffee, wine, or smoking. Our team evaluates each patient's needs to determine suitability, addressing concerns like gum recession or existing restorations. Results last 1-3 years with proper care, and touch-ups are available to maintain a radiant smile.
Dental Crowns
Crowns restore damaged or decayed teeth with durable, natural-looking coverage. We offer porcelain, porcelain-fused-to-metal, and gold options tailored to each patient's bite and aesthetic goals. Digital impressions via TRIOS scanner ensure precise fit without traditional putty molds. Temporary crowns are custom-made, and all restorations are reviewed by our doctors for color and shape accuracy before final placement.
Preventive Dentistry
Preventive care includes routine cleanings, exams, and patient education to maintain oral health. Our hygienists remove plaque buildup, screen for oral cancer, and apply fluoride or sealants to protect against decay. We emphasize home care guidance, addressing habits like bruxism with nightguards. Early detection of issues like cavities or gum disease reduces long-term treatment needs, saving time and costs while preserving natural teeth.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation options, including oral and IV sedation, help patients with dental anxiety undergo procedures comfortably. Dr. McOmber holds one of the few state sedation permits in New Jersey, ensuring safe administration by trained professionals. Sedation is ideal for complex treatments or sensitive patients, allowing multiple procedures in a single visit. Vital signs are monitored throughout to prioritize patient safety and comfort.
