Tooth fillings. We'll repair cavities and protect your teeth from further decay with a tooth-colored filling.

Inlays and onlays. If your tooth is too damaged for a filling but not damaged enough for a dental crown, an inlay or onlay will strengthen your tooth and protect it from further damage.

Dental veneers. We can cover minor chips or cracks and strengthen your teeth with dental veneers, ultra-thin porcelain "shells" that cover the front surface of teeth.

Dental crowns. We can completely cover a broken or badly cracked tooth with a dental crown.

Bone grafting. Bone grafts are also good for patients who are at risk of losing more teeth due to bone loss. For instance, if you have already lost a tooth, your body can start to reabsorb the bone material. This can affect the surrounding teeth.

Soft tissue grafting. Your gums can start to recede for a variety of reasons, but when they do, your teeth can become at increased risk for decay and loss. The benefits of soft tissue grafting – also known as a gum graft procedure – to not only improve their oral health but also their self-esteem.

Scaling. When we see a patient who has buildup on their teeth, we often recommend scaling to help remove it and keep your teeth shiny, white, and healthy.

Root planing. Deep cleanings are extremely important to help remove any hardened calculus and bacteria from your teeth and up underneath your gumline. This helps us clean deep under your gums, helping stop gum disease from advancing further and reducing the depth of your gum pockets.

Symptoms of gum disease. The symptoms of gum disease may vary from patient to patient, but they include red and swollen gums, bad breath (also known as halitosis), receding gums, and the presence of blood in your saliva after you brush and floss your teeth.

What are wisdom teeth?. Most of us get set of teeth as we enter late adolescence and early adulthood. These teeth are what are called wisdom teeth or your third molars.
|

Wisdom teeth removal. Wisdom teeth need to be removed for a variety of reasons, but the most common reason is that they become impacted. Other reasons that we may advise removal is due to tooth decay, as they are often harder to keep clean because they are so far back in your mouth.

Impacted canines. Dental impaction can be a fairly serious problem, and while it is usually the back molars (normally the wisdom teeth) that suffer from this common condition, occasionally your canines can also become impacted.

Dental implants and full-mouth reconstruction. We can use dental implants to replace anything from a single missing tooth to a whole mouthful of missing teeth. |
