Dental Fillings

A filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures, etc. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with either a composite(tooth-colored) or amalgam(silver) filling. There are many types of filling materials available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. We will discuss the best options for restoring your teeth.

Oral Hygiene

A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions. Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet. It is continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health. Prevention also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are also great preventive treatments that help protect the teeth.

Root Canals

Dental Implants

The Greek word “Endodontics” literally means “inside the tooth” and relates to the tooth pulp, tissues, and nerves. Endodontic treatment (or root canal therapy) is performed to save the natural tooth. Most dentists agree that there is no substitute for healthy, natural teeth.

If you have one or more missing teeth, dental implants may be your best option. Implants have a high success rate due to their ability to become a permanent part of your jawbone. This is possible because dental implants are titanium posts that serve as artificial tooth roots once surgically placed into the jawbone by skilled dentists. Living tissue and bone fuse with the implant in a process called osseointegration and become a permanent part of your smile.
