Implant Replacement

Dental implants are used for many reasons such as a support for crowns, bridges, and dentures. Implants can also be cosmetic. Either way, they are designed to be durable, when properly cared for. Our doctors are skilled in replacing missing teeth with dental implants. If a tooth or teeth are missing, this can lead to shifting of teeth and an un-even bite, as well as, further bone loss. Allow our experienced team to evaluate and solve the problem.

Endodontics

Endodontics, also known as Root Canal Therapy, is the treatment of the inner nerve inside a tooth. If the nerve is infected or decaying, this treatment may be able to help restore the tooth. One of the most common side effects of an affected nerve is noticeable sensitivity to pressure and/or temperature. However, there may not be any symptoms during the initial stages.  If you notice severe sensitivity or an abscess forming, please, call us for an evaluation.

Fillings

If you have a tooth that is decaying, cracked, fractured, or slightly damaged in another way, a dental filling maybe necessary. The dental filling process takes just one appointment where we remove the affected portion, clean, and fill the area of the tooth. Fillings used to be noticeable, but we now offer tooth-colored fillings for a more aesthetically pleasing solution.
