  • Sleep Apnea Treatment

    Sleep apnea is very common and affects more than twelve million Americans, according to the National Institutes of Health, and is caused when there is a blockage in the airway, usually when the soft tissue in the rear of the throat collapses and closes during sleep. Males are highly at risk for obstructive sleep apnea; other risk factors include being overweight and over the age of forty, but sleep apnea can affect even children. Because of the lack of awareness by public and healthcare professionals, the majority of the population remains undiagnosed and consequently, untreated, despite the fact that this serious disorder can have significant implications.

  • Fillings

    Fillings can be completed in one appointment. Anesthesia is used for the dentist to remove the decay and apply medication to prevent further damage to the nerve endings. Once the decay is removed, filler is inserted into the damaged area of the tooth to close the cavity. There are several types of filler materials. Your dentist will determine which material is best for you depending on the damage to your tooth, the location in your mouth and your budget as some filler materials are more expensive than others.

  • Cosmetic Dentistry

    Damaged teeth can often be uncomfortable, embarrassing, and even painful. Even just one missing or chipped tooth can change the appearance of your smile. Left untreated, a damaged tooth will only worsen and may lead to decay, which can cause problems for surrounding teeth as well. If you have a misshapen, cracked, or missing tooth, call our office to get more information on treatment options. Begin your journey to great oral health today!

  • KOR Teeth Whitening

    Teeth yellowing can occur from drinking coffee, tea or wine, eating certain foods, smoking or just age. Although there are many teeth whitening solutions, they can either be expensive, time consuming or impermanent and need to be repeated several times. That is why the KOR whitening system has proven to be a preferred whitening system. The KOR teeth whitening system is the only permanent whitening solution. In fact, it is the only product that can whiten tetracycline damaged teeth, which often result in deep-brown stains. Developed by Dr. Rod Kurthy, this system is praised by dentists around the world. This system restores oxygen in the teeth, removing all stains and discoloration.

  • Dental Implants

    Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth, and can also keep surrounding teeth from shifting. Missing teeth can cause great discomfort and make the task of eating or even smiling something to dread. Implants look natural, are secure, and long lasting. Your dentist will place the implant directly into the bone,and this helps to prevent facial sagging and restores your chewing ability. In just a few visits, your implant can be placed, followed by a custom fit dental crown. Lastly, a permanent crown is set where your tooth was missing. Through a surgical procedure, these artificial roots and teeth are placed directly into the bone.

  • Gum Disease Treatment

    Periodontal disease causes pockets or spaces in the gum tissue, allowing bacteria to enter, and affects a large portion of the population. The buildup of plaque causes inflammation to the gums which create these pockets. Normal brushing cannot reach this buildup and overtime the pockets continue to get deeper. Without proper treatment, symptoms may include bad breath, red and puffy gums, bleeding gums and loose or sensitive teeth. Follow-up appointments are recommended to monitor the healing progress. Medicated rinses, consistent flossing and the use of an electric toothbrush are some suggested home treatments. Your dentist will discuss a thorough in-home follow-up care plan for you.

  • Root Canal Therapy

    A root canal is a dental procedure that helps save a decayed tooth. Teeth are made of layers – the outer layer is the enamel and inside layer is called the dentin. Inside the dentin is the pulp. Tooth decay eats into the enamel, the dentin and then the pulp. Once this happens, it can lead to infection or loss of the tooth. This is when your dentist will recommend that you have a root canal, which removes the pulp and the damaged nerves, cleans the pocket and then fills the tooth with a dental filler.
