Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services offer non-invasive solutions to improve smile aesthetics. We specialize in veneers, teeth whitening, and ceramic implants using advanced techniques like the Itero Digital Scanner. Patients benefit from personalized treatment plans that address discoloration, misalignment, and other cosmetic concerns while maintaining oral health. Our mercury-free approach ensures safe, biocompatible materials.
Periodontics
Led by a board-certified periodontist, our gum disease treatments include implant surgery and bone grafting. We address periodontal disease, the leading cause of adult tooth loss, through minimally invasive procedures. Advanced diagnostics help identify issues early, while regenerative techniques restore gum health and support structures for long-term dental stability.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth discreetly using custom BPA-free aligners. Our digital scanning technology creates precise treatment plans for correcting crowding, gaps, and bite issues. Patients appreciate the removable design for eating and cleaning, with treatment durations typically ranging from 12-18 months for optimal results and improved oral function.
Oral Surgery
Our oral surgery services include wisdom tooth extraction and facial cosmetic procedures performed with IV sedation for comfort. Dr. Hearne's dual expertise in dentistry and medicine ensures comprehensive care for complex cases. We prioritize patient education about recovery protocols to minimize complications and promote rapid healing after procedures.
Ozone Treatment
Ozone therapy applications treat over 260 oral pathologies through antimicrobial action. This minimally invasive approach addresses biofilm-related issues like periodontal disease using ozonated water and gas. The treatment supports tissue regeneration while reducing bacterial load, offering an alternative to traditional antibiotic therapies with fewer side effects.
