Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking solutions. Using Straumann and Astra implants, we ensure secure anchoring through jawbone integration. Ideal for preserving bone structure and restoring function, this service includes pre-surgical planning and post-operative care. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability and confidence in their smile.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting restores jawbone volume for implant support. Using autografts, allografts, or synthetic materials, we rebuild deficient bone structures through minimally invasive techniques. This service enables implant placement where bone loss occurred, ensuring long-term stability. Recovery typically involves 3-7 months of healing before implant placement.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting treats recession by reinforcing thinning tissue with donor or palatal grafts. This procedure protects exposed roots, reduces sensitivity, and improves smile aesthetics. Using precise suturing techniques, we achieve natural-looking results that prevent further gum loss and enhance oral health.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation options include oral medication, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation for nervous patients. These methods ensure comfortable treatment experiences while maintaining safety through continuous monitoring. Patients receive personalized sedation plans to address specific fears and procedural requirements.
Tooth Extractions
Extractions address impacted wisdom teeth, crowding, or irreparable damage using minimally traumatic techniques. Pre-operative imaging guides precise removal while preserving surrounding bone. Post-operative care includes bone grafting recommendations to maintain implant options and prevent complications.
