OUR SERVICES

We offer a wide yet limited range of services in order to create your new dazzling smile. All dazzling smiles start off with a solid foundation. Just like you wouldn’t want to have your house built on a sand foundation, we do not want to rejuvenate your smile on a shaky and unstable foundation. The foundation to which we are referring to is the bone support around your teeth as well as the health of your gum tissue. With that said, we offer an extensive range of gum therapy from a simple cleaning to a laser soft tissue management program or any combination in between which will hopefully prevent you from requiring any surgical intervention in the future.

Once the gum foundation is healthy we make sure that your “bite” foundation is healthy. Your teeth are part of your skeletal system and they are connected to your jawbone (mandible) which is one of the 206 bones in your body. Your jawbone is connected to your head by your temporomandibular joints (TMJ’s). These joints (one on the left and one on the right, just in front of your ears) are the most complex joints in our bodies. They simultaneously function together in 3 dimensions – up and down, back and forward, and left and right. The way in which your teeth come together dictates the position of your jaw joints. When your teeth come together they are in “occlusion”. If the teeth don’t come together the proper way you have a condition called “malocclusion” which literally means “bad bite”. So, if the teeth are improperly positioned this can lead to an improperly positioned jawbone and an improperly positioned jawbone can lead to improperly positioned TMJ joints which in turn can lead to an unhealthy foundation – which is what we want to avoid during a smile makeover. The positioning of the teeth, jawbone and TMJ’s cannot be accomplished without the musculature surrounding these structures coming into play and this is where the realm of neuromuscular dentistry takes over.

Finally, once the gums and jaw joints are determined to be relatively disease free and healthy, then we can begin to restore your smile. This is accomplished in several ways: thin glass-like facings for the teeth called veneers, full coverage restorations called crowns/caps and restorations that replace already missing teeth called bridges. Many times a tooth can be repaired with a relatively conservative restoration called an inlay/onlay which is made by taking out an old filling, removing the cavity under that filling, removing any weak tooth structure and leaving behind everything that is good. Then the inlay/onlay is placed into the tooth at a second visit (you wear a temporary inlay/onlay for 2 weeks). It is like placing a puzzle piece into your tooth.
