Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Full mouth rehabilitation involves restoring the teeth, bite and muscles to a natural-looking and youthful-feeling condition, which improves self esteem and enhances appearance. Combining computerized technology and an expert's artistic eye, full mouth rehabilitation may be the answer to countless problems, such as migraines, tooth heat sensitivity, sore jaw muscles and pain in the arms, neck and shoulders.
Implants
Implants are changing the way people live! With implants, people are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, laugh and enjoy life. Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. A person with implants regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours have been preserved. Implants consist of small titanium posts which are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition to restoring a natural appearance in the mouth, implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing bone deterioration, which typically occurs when teeth are missing.
Smile Design
A newly designed smile is truly a work of art. The term "smile design" applies to the enhancement of a smile using a combination of methods. A patient's eyes, lip line, coloring, gum tissue contouring and face are all considered when a new smile is being designed. Our goal is to redesign your smile so that it fits you, is beautiful, strong and natural looking. We will create a smile especially for you that will make you smile for years to come!
Porcelain Veneers
Of all the methods available today for changing and improving the look of your smile, veneers are among the most popular and successful with our patients. The process involves removing a small amount of tooth structure to make room for the veneers. The dental lab then fabricates the veneers from impressions. After placement, the veneers look like natural teeth. Some advantages of porcelain veneers over bonding include: increased longevity, natural beauty and resistance to staining.
Porcelain Crowns
The most common crown restoration placed today utilizes a metal lining covered with porcelain. These types of restorations are not as natural in appearance because light is not able to pass through porcelain-metal crowns as it does with a natural tooth. The result is an opaque or flat-looking tooth. Often, these types of traditional crowns leave a dark or gray line next to the gumline. Our talented team is proud to offer a natural looking alternative: all-ceramic, non-metal crowns! With these newer restorations you will notice the "life-like" appearance that mimics natural teeth and does not produce the black gumline so common with porcelain-metal crowns.
TMJ Treatment
"TMJ" stands for temporomandibular joint. The TMJs are the small joints in front of each ear that attach the lower jaw to the skull. They allow you to perform such functions as opening and closing your mouth, chewing, speaking and swallowing. TMJ problems are manifested by pain in the muscles along with limitations in the ability to execute normal movements. If you suffer from such pain, neuromuscular dentistry may be the answer to your problems!
