Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
AACD-accredited cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles with porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, and Invisalign treatments. Our dentists combine artistic skill with technical expertise to address discoloration, misalignment, and structural issues. Patients receive customized treatment plans using materials that mimic natural tooth appearance for seamless results.
Dental Implants
Comprehensive dental implant solutions replace missing teeth with permanent restorations anchored by titanium posts. Dr. Betancourt's fellowship training ensures advanced placement techniques for optimal integration and longevity. The process includes bone grafting when necessary and final restorations matching natural tooth function and aesthetics.
Sedation Dentistry
Multiple sedation options including IV sedation and general anesthesia allow comfortable treatment for anxious patients. Certified specialists administer medications that enable comprehensive care during single visits. This approach benefits patients requiring extensive procedures or those with dental phobias.
Restorative Treatments
Modern restorative services address decay, trauma, and wear with crowns, bridges, and dentures. Using biocompatible materials and precision-fitting technology, we restore proper function and appearance. Treatments include minimally invasive cavity removal and same-day ceramic restorations.
Digital Smile Design
Digital smile design uses 3D imaging and simulation software to visualize treatment outcomes before starting procedures. Patients collaborate in designing their ideal smile through virtual models. This technology enhances treatment accuracy while ensuring patient expectations align with achievable results.
