Bone Grafting
Bone grafting restores jawbone volume lost to gum disease or prepares patients for dental implants. We use guided tissue regeneration and platelet-rich fibrin to stimulate natural bone growth. This procedure creates a stable foundation for implants while preventing further bone deterioration through regenerative techniques.
Dental Implants
Dental implants permanently replace missing teeth with titanium posts that fuse to the jawbone. We offer guided implant placement using SIMPLANT technology for precision. Implant-supported dentures and full-arch solutions like Straumann Pro Arch provide stable, long-lasting restorations for improved function and aesthetics.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation options include IV sedation, nitrous oxide, and The Wand anesthesia for patient comfort. These methods help anxious patients receive necessary care without fear. We tailor sedation levels to individual needs while ensuring safety through continuous monitoring during procedures.
Gum Disease Treatment
We treat gum disease through scaling and root planing, laser therapy, and osseous surgery. Early intervention prevents tooth loss and systemic health complications. Maintenance programs include regular deep cleanings to control infection and preserve periodontal health over time.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting restores receded gum tissue using traditional techniques or the Pinhole Surgical Method. This protects exposed tooth roots and improves smile aesthetics. Procedures address sensitivity and structural damage caused by periodontal disease or aggressive brushing habits.
