Microdentistry

We can detect the tiniest areas of decay or damage with a DIAGNOdent laser. Microdentistry allows us to place a tiny micro filling of porcelain in a tooth after locating decay. This conservative, proactive measure allows for minimal removal of natural tooth structure and less filling material. Nanotechnology has become a part of everyday modern dentistry here, so we can offer filling material that is actually stronger than natural tooth structure. Imagine porcelain veneers as thin as a contact lens, but stronger than a natural tooth once placed. We bring these innovations to you so that you can have the best dentistry can offer.

Technology

We’ve invested in state-of-the-art technology to serve you better. Our digital radiography is faster than traditional X-rays and exposes you to much less radiation. With DIAGNOdent, we can detect cavities in their early stages, when they can be repaired more easily. Intraoral cameras project an image of your teeth onto a chairside monitor to help our dentists diagnose the treatment you need. These and other innovative dental technologies make the patient experience more comfortable, and they make dentistry more efficient and lasting.

Veneers

Lumineers are a conservative type of veneer that can cover chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth. Made of thin porcelain material, Lumineers are applied to the front of your teeth to create a beautifully white, perfectly aligned smile. The process takes just a couple of visits to our office. Lumineers are unique in that in many cases, there is no reduction of sensitive tooth structure required, allowing us to create your new smile without painful shots or drilling into the teeth, as is necessary with traditional veneers and crowns. Just go to Lumineers.com for more information.

Invisalign

If you’d like to straighten your teeth inconspicuously and without the discomfort of metal braces, Invisalign may be the choice for you. Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually reposition teeth into a predetermined alignment. All of our dentists are Invisalign certified.

Crowns

Teeth that have extensive damage or repairs may reach a point when their structure is compromised and they can only be restored with a crown.

Bridges

When you lose a tooth, the balance of your bite is disrupted. Changes in bite pattern, loss of tissue support for surrounding teeth, and increased decay are just some problems that can result. We design fixed bridges to replace missing teeth and correct associated dental health issues. A full smile is not only beautiful, but it's practical, functional, and good for your health.

Implants

If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer a natural-looking solution. An implant is an artificial tooth root that looks and feels so real, you may forget you ever lost a tooth. Our dentists work with a nearby team of oral surgeons who attach the implant to your jaw. We then place a strong, long-lasting prosthetic tooth to restore function and beauty to your smile. These restorations are so strong that we will guarantee them for LIFE! Ask about our Lifetime Guarantee on our implants and porcelain crowns.
