PATIENT EDUCATION








CROWNS


A crown (cap) is a restoration that is placed on teeth that have lost a lot of their structure or are weakened in some other way.



CLEAR ALIGNERS


Aligners are the clear & simple way to straighten your teeth, so you can show off your smile! We also offer traditional metal braces.



TEETH SEALANTS


Sealants are thin layers of resin that are placed on the pits, fissures, and grooves of molars to prevent decay on these surfaces.



TMJ TREATMENT


TMJ is the joint that connects the lower and upper jaw. The term TMJ stands for Temporo-mandibular Joint. Some people may refer to TMJ when what they are actually describing is TMD or Temporomandibular Dysfunction. This is when there is pain, popping, or clicking associated with that joint.



DENTURES


Dentures are false teeth used to replace missing teeth. While nothing is as good as a natural tooth, dentures help people smile and chew better than having no teeth.



TOOTH COLORED FILLINGS


While in the past silver fillings had been used, most people prefer fillings that look more like real teeth. Current day composites help restore strength and beauty to your smile.



SEDATION DENTISTRY


Many people are anxious about having dental treatment. We offer various forms of sedation to make your appointments much more relaxed and enjoyable.



BRIDGES


Bridges are an option of replacing a missing tooth by anchoring onto adjacent teeth with a porcelain or metal prosthetic and can be done many times in one appointment.



DENTAL IMPLANTS


Implants are titanium screws placed in the bone to replace missing teeth. They are as close to having real teeth as possible and have a great long term prognosis with proper care.



TEETH CLEANING


We recommend for most patients to receive a professional cleaning 2x/year. One of our amazing hygienists use specialized instruments to clean your teeth more thoroughly than you can at home by yourself.



TOOTH EXTRACTIONS


Sometimes teeth are too broken or decayed to restore reliably. When this happens, extractions could be recommended where we remove the affected tooth. Always make sure we inform you of replacement options!



ROOT CANALS


When cavities or fractures involve the pulp or nerve of a tooth, root canal treatment can be performed to save the affected tooth and relieve any pain.



WISDOM TEETH


Wisdom teeth or 3rd molars usually start to show around ages 18-23. Many times there isn’t sufficient room in the mouth for them and they can cause problems down the road.



SILVER DIAMINE FLUORIDE


For some patients-particularly young children and the elderly-an alternative to fillings for cavities has presented itself. The application of this medication stops the decay and re-hardens the tooth.



3D PRINTING


This revolutionary technology of additive manufacturing allows us to treat patients more affordably and quicker than ever before. Ask Dr. Alex to show you his favorite toy! (The 3D Printer)
