Initial Oral Examination
Your initial oral examination includes a visual examination, charting,
periodontal probing, diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We will also
take x-rays, which includes the panoramic x-ray for proper diagnosis of the
anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth as well as the bite-wing x-ray
series for proper diagnosis of proximal decay of posterior teeth.
Implants
Implants are synthetic structures that are placed in the area of the tooth
normally occupied by the root. Implants are anchored to the jawbone or metal
framework on the bone and act as a foundation for an artificial tooth or
permanent bridge. In some cases, implants can be used to attach dentures.

Veneers
Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain or plastic cemented over the front of
your teeth to change their color or shape. Veneers are used on teeth with
uneven surfaces or are chipped, discolored, oddly shaped, unevenly spaced or
crooked.

Crowns and Bridges
Crowns are synthetic caps, usually made of a material like porcelain, placed
on the top of a tooth. Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth's
function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root
canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of
the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth.

Teeth Whitening
Whitening procedures have effectively restored the smile of people with
stained, dull, or discolored teeth. The darker tissue of your teeth, the
dentin, can become exposed as the outer layer of enamel is worn away by the
effects of aging or things like caffeine and tobacco.

Root canals are tiny passageways that branch off from beneath the top of the
tooth, coursing their way vertically downward, until they reach the tip of
the root.

Toothaches
Simple toothaches can often be relieved by rinsing the mouth to clear it of
debris and other matter. Sometimes, a toothache can be caused or aggravated
by a piece of debris lodged between the tooth and another tooth. Avoid
placing an aspirin between your tooth and gum to relieve pain, because the
dissolving aspirin can actually harm your gum tissue.
