Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that function like natural teeth. Our multi-stage process includes implant placement, osseointegration, and custom crown restoration. Patients receive temporary prosthetics during healing periods lasting 3-6 months. This solution preserves jawbone structure and prevents adjacent teeth from shifting.
Cosmetic Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services use custom-fitted trays and medical-grade gel to achieve 4-8 shade improvements. The at-home treatment involves daily gel application over several days. We provide personalized whitening plans to address surface stains from food, beverages, and smoking while maintaining enamel integrity.
Restorative Bridges
Fixed dental bridges replace missing teeth using adjacent natural teeth as anchors. The process involves abutment preparation, impression taking, and placement of porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations. Temporary bridges protect exposed areas during the 2-3 week lab fabrication period for permanent installations.
Crowns
Custom dental crowns restore damaged teeth through a two-visit process. We prepare teeth by removing decay and shaping enamel before placing temporary crowns. Permanent restorations made from porcelain, metal, or gold alloys are cemented after 2-3 weeks. These caps protect weakened teeth and improve aesthetic appearance.
Extractions
Wisdom teeth extractions address impacted or problematic molars through surgical removal. Procedures use local or general anesthesia with post-operative care including gauze application and pain management. Patients receive dietary restrictions and healing timelines, with follow-up appointments for suture removal when necessary.
