Procedures
Implants
-- If you tend to hide your smile because
of missing teeth, dental implants can
help. Teeth lost due to injury, disease,
or infection can make speaking and eating
difficult. You may feel self-conscious
and uncomfortable with your appearance.
Dental implants are the most durable
way of replacing missing teeth. An implant,
essentially an artificial tooth root
to which a new crown can be attached,
can successfully replace a single tooth
or all of your natural teeth. Whether
an injury, periodontal disease, or another
cause has left you with missing teeth,
we can help! The dental implant procedure
involves three phases. During the first
phase, we place the implant, usually
made of titanium, into your jawbone.
It then requires a period of healing,
known as osseointegration, that lasts
for several months. Finally, we attach
a new crown to the implant, giving you
a strong, natural-looking new tooth!

Tooth
Whitening -- Having a white
smile often means having more confidence
and feeling better about yourself.
Tooth whitening is one of the most
popular and simplest procedures available
in dentistry today. You can have your
teeth whitened in our office in under
an hour. Using a whitening gel and
a special light, in-office tooth whitening
is the quickest, most effective way
to achieve a brighter smile. Whether
you are looking for a change that
is subtle or dramatic, we can help
you achieve a whiter, more beautiful
smile. To learn more about tooth whitening,

All
Porcelain Crowns -- When
teeth are damaged or decayed, they
can cause pain and negatively affect
appearance. Using all porcelain crowns,
the evidence of having your teeth
restored is virtually undetectable.
Your smile will be stronger and healthier
while still looking natural and beautiful.
Porcelain crowns fit over your natural
teeth like jackets. They can make
teeth stronger and less susceptible
to damage. At the same time, porcelain
crowns can be used to improve the
appearance of the teeth by reshaping
them, changing their alignment, and
making them whiter. To learn more
about crowns, please contact us today!
Porcelain
Veneers -- Changing the
appearance of your smile is easier than
ever with porcelain veneers. Veneers are
thin layers of tooth-colored material
that can be bonded to your teeth to
change their shape, size, alignment, or
color. Porcelain veneers can repair
chips and cracks, hide discoloration,
and straighten crooked teeth. If your
smile is in need of a new look,
porcelain veneers may be the answer.
They look completely natural and very
little tooth structure needs to be
removed in order for them to be placed.

Metal-Free
White Fillings -- Teeth
that are suffering from decay and
need filling can now be treated with
metal-free white fillings. In the
past, teeth were usually filled with
silver amalgam or other metals.
White fillings eliminate the risks
that may be associated with older
mercury-containing amalgam fillings
while offering a cosmetic benefit as
well. Because they can be matched to
your natural tooth color, white
fillings offer renewed health and
strength without telltale signs of
treatment. Recent advances have made
white fillings stronger,
longer-lasting and better than ever.

fillings, please contact us today!
Instant
Orthodontics -- If you have
always wanted straighter teeth but
don't want to have to endure braces,
instant orthodontics are a quick and
effective alternative. While braces
are often associated with
discomfort, teenagers, and years of
treatment, instant orthodontics can
give adults straight smiles in just
a few short appointments! Instant
orthodontics is a procedure in which
we use porcelain veneers to alter
the alignment and shape of your
teeth. A smile that was once marred
by crooked teeth can appear flawless
when veneers are used as instant
orthodontics. Even significantly
crooked teeth can be corrected.
Porcelain veneers are easy to
customize, so your correction will
look natural and attractive. Sound
appealing? To learn more about
instant orthodontics,

Microabrasion
("Drill-less Dentistry")
-- For some patients, needles and
drills produce anxiety, and the idea
of having to face the drill may prevent
some patients from having much needed
dental work performed. Fortunately,
we offer our patients microabrasion,
a simple way to remove cavities without
the drill. Microabrasion is also useful
for removing superficial stains and
for preparing the teeth for other
procedures, such as veneers or crowns.
Microabrasion works by spraying tiny
particles (often aluminum oxide) onto
the teeth in a stream of highly pressurized
air. Cavities, stains, and damaged
tooth structure can be easily and
safely removed. Another benefit of
microabrasion is that it does not
require the use of anesthesia. To
