Routine dental checkups and x-rays are essential for identifying and treating issues such as oral cancer, growth or placement problems, and infections at an early stage, preventing them from worsening. It is advisable to schedule a dental checkup at least once a year to ensure optimal oral health.

While brushing and flossing are vital for oral hygiene, regular dental cleanings are necessary to eliminate accumulated plaque, tartar, and food particles from areas that are difficult to reach.

Professional teeth whitening is a simple process that includes in-office treatments to restore the whiteness of teeth. Whitening from a dental professional is both safer and more effective than over-the-counter whitening kits done at home.

If you have stained, chipped, or missing teeth and are not eligible for dental implants, porcelain veneers can help you achieve the stunning smile you desire! It's crucial to note that veneers are a permanent dental solution; therefore, careful consideration and planning are crucial.

Dental contouring, also known as tooth reshaping or enameloplasty, is a cosmetic dental treatment that involves removing small portions of enamel to create a more uniform length, shape, and surface of the teeth. Besides improving the aesthetics of teeth, contouring can also enhance oral health by eliminating crevices and overlaps between teeth where plaque and tartar can accumulate. Our dental office is dedicated to tooth contouring procedures, which are designed to restore the appearance of various dental abnormalities, such as chips, deformities, irregular tooth shape caused by overcrowding, uneven tooth length, and pointed teeth.

A dental crown is a restorative dental procedure that involves placing a cap over a weakened or broken tooth to restore its natural appearance and prevent further damage. This treatment is typically used to repair chipped or broken teeth, cover exposed teeth following surgery, or replace fillings. Crowns provide a long-lasting solution to restore the function and appearance of damaged teeth.

Metal braces straighten your teeth using high-grade stainless steel metal brackets and archwires. Braces come in alternative materials for patients looking for a more subtle appliance that is not as visible on the teeth.

Dentures, or “false teeth,” are a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Two types are available — complete and partial. Complete dentures are used when all the teeth are missing, while partials are used when some natural teeth remain.

Extraction is often recommended when someone has decaying or impacted wisdom teeth. Many patients are scared to have a tooth removed, but your dentist will administer general anesthesia so that you are completely pain-free and unaware during the surgery. Post-op care is incredibly important to your results, so make sure to discuss the aftercare plan with your oral surgeon.

Tooth loss can result from various factors such as age, poor oral hygiene, or certain medical conditions, leading to a negative impact on both tooth function and appearance. For a permanent solution, dental implants are designed to fuse with the jawbone, providing an authentic replacement for natural teeth. They are highly durable and can last a lifetime with proper care, eliminating the inconvenience and embarrassment often associated with removable dentures, which can move or become loose.

When a tooth's pulp is infected with bacteria due to an injury or untreated cavity, root canal therapy is often recommended to prevent the infection from worsening and requiring tooth removal. Seeking endodontic treatment from a professional is crucial in treating the infection and saving the tooth.
