Children’s Dentistry
The ADA recommends that the first dental visit take place within six months after the first tooth appears, but no later than a child's first birthday. It is important to bring your child to see the dentist once every six months. This visit allows us to examine their teeth and provide them with essential teeth cleaning and check their growth pattern.
Dental Bonding
Bonding is a common cosmetic procedure that can be done comfortably in our office. Unlike other treatments, bonding typically doesn't require any type of anesthetic to complete.
Dental Cleaning and Exam
Even with the best brushing habits, you can still benefit from a professional cleaning. Exams are just as necessary, since they can alert us of minor problems before they become severe so that treatment is both easier and more effective. Cleanings help to prevent gum disease and tooth decay when done regularly. It's never too late to start taking better care of your smile with routine preventative treatment.
Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a type of restoration that is designed to fit over a damaged or compromised tooth. If a tooth has fractured, broken or has recently been treated with a root canal, we may recommend that it be crowned. Crowns both protect the tooth from further damage as well as improve its size and shape. You can expect the restoration to last for many years before it'll need to be replaced.
Dental Fillings
A dental filling is a restoration that is specifically used to fill in an area of one or more teeth that have become decayed. Dental decay, known as a cavity, can infiltrate a tooth and cause it to become weak.
Dentures and Partials
