emergency dentistry
Whether you have an avulsed (knocked out) tooth, lost a crown or a filling or you chipped, cracked or broke a few teeth, our Emergency dental services can get you out of pain and repair the damage done.
ROOT CANAL THERAPY
A root canal is often needed when a cavity, crack or trauma has caused the nerve to die. Also, if a tooth is “infected” an abscess will result, and a root canal is the treatment of choice to save the tooth.
Fillings
We use tooth-colored composite as a tooth filling material. The material is very esthetic and is a more conservative treatment when compared to the silver amalgam fillings. With composite fillings, only the decayed portion of the tooth is removed. The adhesive is placed between the tooth and the composite is bonded to the tooth. In general, composites allow for smaller, conservative fillings and that helps maintain a tooth’s longevity.
Ultrasonic teeth cleaning
For patients with tartar build up or who do not enjoy the traditional “tooth scraping’ instruments: Our team utilizes state of the art ultrasonic cleaning instruments (like a ‘sonicare toothbrush’) to clean your teeth with very fine vibrations and a water spray to remove tartar, or dental calculus, from your teeth.
Crowns
Crowns (AKA “caps”) are a porcelain covering that is used to protect a broken tooth and/or alter the shape, color and appearance of a tooth. Crowns are used on teeth that have large fillings, cracks and/or root canals. Also, crowns are used in cosmetic cases to complete ‘smile makeovers.’
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are porcelain coverings that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They are used to alter the color, shape, and even alignment of your teeth with minimum alteration to the enamel. Modern porcelain crowns are very life aesthetic and match exactly the adjacent teeth. Front teeth are usually the most common teeth to receive veneers.
Invisalign Braces
Invisalign braces are a clear tray alternative to traditional orthodontics. Invisalign is a great treatment option for “cosmetic orthodontic cases” and it can be paired with other cosmetic dentistry options like: veneers, porcelain crowns and teeth whitening. Invisalign uses a series of clear trays that are changed out every 1-2 weeks. These trays move the teeth to the ideal position. Rotated teeth, cross bites, tooth gaps and tipped teeth can be predictably treated with invisalign aligners.
Composite Teeth Bonding
Composite teeth bonding is a very conservative to cosmetically improve the position, shape & color of teeth that are stained, crooked and/or broken. This procedure involves placing a “white filling” or resin composite material onto the enamel of your teeth. Usually this procedure can be complete without any shots or numbing! The bonded composite fillings are long lasting, look just like your natural teeth and can be completed in a single appointment!
