Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services address aesthetic concerns through treatments like veneers, teeth whitening, and smile makeovers. Dr. Michael Hatcher specializes in creating natural-looking results using porcelain veneers and professional whitening systems. We focus on correcting chipped teeth, discoloration, and alignment issues while maintaining functional dental health, combining artistry with technical expertise to achieve personalized transformations.
Dental Implants
Dental implant restorations provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium post integration with the jawbone. We offer crowns, bridges, and dentures supported by implants to restore both function and appearance. Our process includes bone density evaluation and customized implant placement planning, emphasizing long-term oral health benefits like jawbone preservation and stable tooth replacement.
Veneers
Custom porcelain veneers conceal cosmetic imperfections including stains, chips, and gaps between teeth. Our treatment involves minimal enamel removal and precise impression-taking for optimal fit. We utilize digital imaging to preview results and offer temporary veneers during fabrication, ensuring patients achieve their desired smile aesthetics with durable, stain-resistant materials.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services deliver dramatic results through in-office sessions and custom take-home trays. Our Kor whitening system includes conditioning treatments for deeper stain removal while incorporating desensitizing agents. We provide multiple whitening options tailored to individual needs, from quick one-visit treatments to gradual home applications with maintenance protocols.
Pediatric Dentistry
Our pediatric dental services focus on establishing positive early experiences for children starting around age four. We employ gentle techniques for fillings and preventive care, including fluoride-releasing sealants. Through TV distractions and comfortable environments, we help young patients develop healthy oral habits while educating parents on proper home care and developmental milestones.
