Treatment Methods
Our practice provides a variety of surgical services for the treatment of periodontal issues. We pride ourselves on a conservative approach to our recommendations and limit surgery to the areas where it is absolutely necessary. Often times, the early stages of periodontal disease are best treated with non-surgical periodontal therapy. Even in severe cases, non-surgical periodontal therapy often precedes surgical therapy. This is done to improve the overall tissue quality prior to surgery and also to help limit the areas requiring surgery.
Dental Implants
Replace missing teeth with an implant and a crown. A dental implant replaces both the lost natural tooth and its root. Learn more here.
Periodontics
Periodontal procedures lay the groundwork for restorative and cosmetic dentistry as well as improve the esthetics of your gum line.
Extractions
Simple extractions are for the teeth that are easy to see, while surgical extractions are for the teeth that cannot be easily seen.
Laser Therapy
With lasers we can remove decay and bacteria, as well as reshape gums with more precision and is less invasive than regular surgery. Patients also see quicker healing. Learn more here.
Pinhole Surgical Technique
This procedure can correct gum recession without incision or suturing, leaving patients with minimal post-operative symptoms. Learn more here.
Periodontal Maintenance
By age 45, 80% of people will be afflicted with periodontal disease. Professional maintenance will support the long-term health of your gums.
Prophylaxis (Teeth Cleaning)
An effective procedure that cleans the teeth and gums to stop the progression of gingivitis and periodontal disease. Recommended twice annually.
Bruxism Treatments
Bruxism is a common oral parafunctional activity that is characterized by the grinding of teeth and clenching of the jaw, usually during sleep.
Scaling and Root Planing
A non-surgical procedure to remove plaque, tartar, or calculus which can cause gingival inflammation and disease.
Bone Grafting
This procedure rebuilds bone to restore functionality and aesthetic appearance. The repair also enables secure placement of dental implants.
Guided Bone Regeneration
To stabilize endangered teeth or prepare the jaw for dental implants, pockets of degenerated bone are cleaned and filled with new membranes and soft tissue.
Teeth Cleaning & Whitening
Whitening is one of the easiest way to bring confidence to your smile. In just one session you can see an immediate improvement.
Gum Grafting
This procedure treats gum recession, which can cause damage to supporting bone and result in tooth sensitivity. See before and after photos.
Pocket Reduction Surgery
Reducing pocket depth and eliminating existing bacteria will allow gum tissue to better reattach to healthy bone.
Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery
This is a conventional way to cover unsightly, sensitive, or exposed root surfaces and to prevent further gum recession.
Bite Adjustments
Restoring function without damage requires a custom procedure based on the current condition of a patient’s bite.
Dental Implant Options
Whether you are missing one tooth, several, or all of your teeth, our implants are so natural that you will surely smile with confidence.
CT Scans
Equipped with our very own CT scanner, we are able to produce 3D images of your teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways and bone in a single scan.
Oral Cancer Exam
The exam is a completely painless process and should be scheduled annually. If caught early, oral cancer can be effectively treated.
Perioscopic Treatment
A non-surgical procedure for treating gum disease. Instead of removing plaque blindly by feel, we can use a perioscope to comfortably reach under your gums.
Stem Cell Recovery
Healthy dental pulp contains powerful stem cells that show great promise for future regenerative medical treatments.
PIEZOSURGERY®
This special instrument and technique only cuts bone, which preserves the soft tissue and reduces patient discomfort for faster healing. Learn more here.
