Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges are two of the most trusted methods for repairing damaged teeth and replacing missing teeth. Crowns completely cover and protect the visible portion of a tooth, while bridges replace one or more missing teeth in a row with custom prosthetics.
Extractions
Before performing tooth extraction, we will always attempt to save a decayed or damaged tooth with restorative dentistry. Sometimes, though, the tooth must be extracted to preserve your oral health. We provide effective and gentle treatments and can repair your smile with a custom restoration.
Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, generally emerge in the late teens or early twenties. These teeth are often impacted or misaligned, and, many patients do not have enough room in their jaw to support them. To prevent and address complications, we can perform safe, efficient wisdom tooth removal.
Children's Dentistry
Children have unique dental needs, and we offer preventive treatments that are specifically designed for our younger patients. During routine visits, we can provide dental sealants and fluoride treatments, and we can monitor the development of your child’s teeth and jaw to ensure proper treatment.
Root Canal Therapy
In order to protect a decayed tooth from extraction, we perform root canal therapy. Our office is equipped with rotary endodontics, which are advanced tools designed to remove all traces of decay, while preserving healthy tissue. Following treatment, we can restore your tooth with a custom crown.
Periodontal Care
The gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. However, over time, bacteria can accumulate below the gum line and cause gum disease. To maintain your oral health, we offer deep cleanings, scaling and root planing, dental debridement, periodontal flap closure, and Arestin® antibiotic treatment.
TMJ Treatment
The temporomandibular joints allow the jaw to move up, down, and side to side. When these joints are damaged or misaligned, they can become inflamed, resulting in headaches and neck pain. To relieve strain on the joints and minimize discomfort, we can provide custom splints and night guards.
Preventive Dentistry
The best way to maintain your oral health is through preventive dentistry. We recommend that patients undergo regular checkups every six months, including an exam, professional cleaning, and fluoride treatment. Depending upon your needs, we can also place sealants to protect your molars from decay.
Dental Fillings
To address dental decay and preserve your oral health, we can place a composite filling. This material is designed to match the color of adjacent teeth to ensure natural-looking results. In addition, we can carefully layer the composite resin before “curing” it in place, for a long-lasting solution.
Sleep Apnea
Dr. Glenn provides comprehensive treatment for obstructive sleep apnea, or the recurring interruption of breathing during sleep. Often, he can provide a custom mouth guards to prevent the soft tissues of the throat from blocking the airways during sleep, improving your health and quality of life.
Oral Cancer Screening
As your dentists, we are focused on the relationship between oral health and your overall health. During routine exams, we perform oral cancer screening to detect signs of cancer in its earliest and most treatable stage. If we identify abnormalities, we can perform a biopsy and recommend treatment.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer a complete range of services to enhance your appearance, including BOTOX® Cosmetic, porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, gum contouring, and Invisalign®. Many patients choose to combine several custom services into a comprehensive smile makeover to achieve dramatic results.
Implant Dentistry
Implant dentistry is the best way to replace missing teeth. A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces missing tooth roots and provides superior support for crowns, bridges, and dentures. For your convenience, we plan and perform every step of implant placement and restoration in-house.
Restorative Dentistry
Using modern techniques, we can repair a compromised smile with restorative dentistry. We offer a range of services, including crowns, bridges, and dentures. We can also perform a full mouth reconstruction, combining several procedures into a customized plan for restored function and aesthetics.
Sedation Dentistry
We understand dental anxiety and the fear of treatments, and therefore offer sedation to help calm your nerves. Our practice chooses to provide nitrous oxide sedation due to its safety, ease of use, and effectiveness.
Emergency Dental Services
We provide emergency dental services for patients requiring immediate attention. Emergencies can include: a toothache, trauma such as chips or cracks, a foreign object stuck in your mouth, and many more.
LANAP Laser Gum Therapy
