Things we often take for granted with natural, healthy teeth—such as eating, talking, smiling, and laughing—can all become easier again with restorative dentistry. Our doctors can determine the best of several restorative dental treatment options for patients whose smiles need a second chance, from natural looking dental fillings and porcelain crowns to dental implant restorations and dentures.

Periodontal (Gum) Care
According to MedlinePlus, a service of the U.S. National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health, about 80 percent of U.S. adults currently have some form of gum disease, ranging from gingivitis to serious periodontal disease. The prevalence of gum disease increases with age, because teeth wear down and become more sensitive as time passes, gums naturally recede, and medications can affect oral health. If your gums feel tender or sore, or if they look red and swollen, you may have gum disease. Other warning signs include bleeding and/or receding gums, pain or sensitivity in your teeth (and even loose teeth caused by weakening gum fibers or bone loss), and persistent bad breath. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss as well as various serious health problems. A healthy body needs a healthy mouth!
Non-Surgical Treatment for Gum Disease
If you have any degree of gum disease, we can help. Gum disease used to require surgery more often than not. While surgery is still an option and sometimes needed, many cases are now treated with less invasive techniques first, such as deep dental cleanings, local antibiotics, and special mouth rinses. We also have a soft tissue dental laser that, in most cases, can be used to treat periodontal disease without the need for stitches!
Oral Cancer Is Nothing to Smile About
Oral cancer is actually curable in 80-90% of cases when it is caught in its early stages. The challenge with visual oral cancer screenings is that to the eye, early-stage oral cancer tissues are often indistinguishable from non-cancerous mouth tissues. Our solution? ViziLite®. The screenings are simple and painless, involving special light technology that has proven successful in identifying early-stage soft tissue abnormalities that can turn into oral cancer.
One American dies of oral cancer approximately every hour of every day. While tobacco and alcohol use are the primary lifestyle risk factors for oral cancer, surprisingly 27% of oral cancer victims do not use tobacco or alcohol, nor do they have any other lifestyle risk factors. That is 1 in 4 people who develop oral cancer! Please come in for your screening. It only takes five minutes and could save your life!
General Dentistry
In addition to being interested in the beauty of your smile, we are concerned with the health of your mouth. General dentistry treatments involve diagnosis and treatment of general conditions affecting the teeth, gums, and jaw. Prevention and gum care are important parts of general dentistry, as is treating problems before they grow to be painful and often expensive. Keeping up with your oral health can also significantly reduce the amount of money you will need to spend on dental treatment later in life.
