Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts that fuse with jawbone tissue. Our computer-guided placement ensures optimal positioning for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Patients benefit from same-day procedures, mini implants for limited bone cases, and full-mouth restoration options like All-on-4. The process includes 3D imaging, surgical stents, and customized prosthetics for natural-looking results.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers discreet orthodontic treatment through custom-made clear aligners that gradually straighten teeth. Our practice utilizes 3D scanning technology and TMJ analysis to create precise treatment plans. Benefits include removable trays for eating and cleaning, reduced mouth irritation compared to traditional braces, and virtual treatment previews. We specialize in complex cases requiring bite correction and long-term smile stability.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers improve smile aesthetics by bonding thin ceramic shells to tooth fronts. Our process includes facial analysis, 3D scanning, and trial sessions for optimal shape and color matching. The multi-step procedure ensures proper bite alignment while addressing discoloration, chips, or misshapen teeth. Patients receive customized veneers with microesthetic details for natural-looking, durable results.
Emergency Care
Same-day emergency services address dental trauma, infections, and severe pain. Treatments include cracked tooth repair, root canals, and immediate extractions with temporary restorations. Our NoMad location provides walk-in availability for NYC patients, with advanced diagnostics using 3D imaging and digital scans. Emergency care prioritizes pain relief while developing comprehensive follow-up treatment plans.
Dental Exams
Comprehensive dental exams combine traditional techniques with advanced technology for early problem detection. Services include digital X-rays, oral cancer screenings, gum disease assessment, and Diagnodent cavity detection. Wellness scans identify wear patterns and orthodontic needs while reviewing existing dental work. Regular check-ups emphasize personalized hygiene education and preventive maintenance tailored to individual oral health requirements.
