Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using BioHorizons titanium posts. Our process includes bone grafting preparation, implant placement surgery, and custom crown restoration. Patients benefit from improved chewing function and jawbone preservation. With proper care, implants can last 25+ years. We offer nitrous oxide and oral sedation options for patient comfort during procedures.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligner therapy straightens teeth discreetly using customized plastic trays. Treatment averages 12 months with biweekly tray changes. Ideal for mild-to-moderate alignment issues, this orthodontic solution allows normal eating habits and easier oral hygiene compared to traditional braces. We use digital scanning technology to create precise treatment plans tailored to each patient's needs.
Same-Day Crowns
CEREC technology creates custom ceramic crowns in one visit using CAD/CAM digital design and milling. This eliminates temporary crowns and multiple appointments. The process includes tooth preparation, 3D scanning, and immediate restoration bonding. Crowns typically last 10-15 years with proper maintenance and offer natural aesthetics matching existing dentition.
Preventive Care
Our preventive services include biannual cleanings, oral exams, and fluoride treatments. We use intraoral cameras and VELscope cancer screening technology for comprehensive assessments. Periodontal care ranges from deep cleanings to surgical interventions. Regular maintenance helps prevent cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer through early detection and professional plaque removal.
Cosmetic Makeovers
Customized smile transformations combine multiple procedures like veneers, whitening, and bonding. We offer in-office and take-home whitening systems with peroxide-based gels. Porcelain veneers address stains, chips, and gaps while dental bonding provides immediate shape correction. Treatment plans consider both aesthetic goals and long-term oral health requirements.
