• Bleaching
  
  Bleaching is a treatment that whitens teeth. There are two methods of bleaching teeth: at-home or in-office treatments. Under their dentist's supervision, the at-home treatment requires patients to place a bleaching agent in their custom fitted tooth tray. Patients are required to wear the tray nightly for 2-3 weeks. However, the in-office treatments take approximately 1 hour. The results are immediate. The dentist will cover your gums and apply a bleaching solution to the teeth. A light is then applied to the teeth in order to activate the solution and discolor teeth.
  
  
  
• Braces
  
  Braces align the teeth and jaws to improve dental health. Orthodontic treatment corrects problems such as overbites, underbites, crooked or crowded teeth, and uneven jaw alignment. Braces come in three different types: metal, ceramic (clear) or lingual (brackets attached to the back of the teeth). Dentists generally suggest braces in order to improve a patient's physical appearance.
  
  
  
• Bridges
  
  Bridges are fixed or removable artificial teeth spanning a space where one or more teeth have been lost in the dental arch. The teeth adjacent to the area of missing teeth will be prepared for crowns in order to support the bridge.
  
  
  
• Cleanings
  
  A cleaning is a treatment done usually by a dental hygienist. The hygienist removes stains, plaque and tartar from teeth and finishes with a polishing.
  
  
  
• Crowns
  
  Crowns are made from a variety of materials that strengthen and protect the tooth structure. There are three types of crowns: a full-porcelain crown, a porcelain fused-to-metal crown and the all-metal crown. Your dentist will discuss and help you decide which type of crown is suitable for you. Crowns are suggested for the following reasons:

• Severe damage from decay
  
  
• A filled tooth can no longer support the filling
  
  
• Root Canal - after a root canal, the tooth becomes brittle and requires the protection of a crown
  
  
• Bridges - when teeth are replaced by a bridge, the adjacent teeth need crowns in order to support the bridge.
  
  

• Dentures-Full & Partial
  
  Dentures are artificial and removable replacements for missing teeth. They are made of acrylic resin. Complete dentures replace all teeth and are custom fitted for each individual, while partial dentures are fitted with clasps to replace a section of missing teeth. With dentures, patients improve their chewing and speech. Dentures also provide support for facial muscles.
  
  
  
• Fillings
  
  Fillings are made up of amalgams (silver) or composites (white fillings). After the decay has been removed from a tooth, the dentist will place the filling into the tooth, harden it and adjust it to your bite.
  
  
  
• Implants
  
  Implants replace a missing tooth permanently. A titanium post is surgically implanted into the jawbone. The post will fuse with the jawbone and after a three to six month healing period, an artificial tooth is screwed to the post.
  
  
  
• Root Canals
  
  A Root Canal treatment is performed when a tooth's pulp (nerve and blood supply) become infected or inflamed. With local anesthesia, the tooth is opened and the pulp and bacteria are removed, leaving an empty pulp chamber. The chamber is filled with a sealant and a filling. The tooth may require additional protection and reinforcement with a crown.
  
  
  
• Sedation
  
  We offer Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) as well as Pre Sedation for those patients who feel too apprehensive to receive treatment.
  
  
  
• Veneers
  
  Veneers are wafer thin shells of porcelain which are bonded onto the front side of teeth and are an excellent solution for teeth that are stained, chipped, or slightly misaligned.
