Family Dentistry

Healthy teeth, attractive smiles for the entire family: We are here for you, providing family dentistry services for adults and children throughout the tristate area. Kids as young as 3 years old can ease into oral hygiene by accompanying a parent to a routine cleaning: your child will simply watch the appointment in our calm, inviting office to begin building a positive association with dental visits. 

Typical tooth cleaning involves the following steps:

• Scaling teeth to remove built up plaque

• Polishing the teeth to remove stains and restore shine to the enamel

• Flossing to remove stubborn plaque between teeth

• Strengthening the enamel with a fluoride rinse

Cosmetic Dentistry

• White dental fillings maintain the natural appearance of your teeth

• Inlays/onlays: Longing-lasting porcelain or composite material

• Composite bonding to repair chipped, broke, discolored or decayed teeth

• Teeth Whitening: Stained from smoking, food, drink, or poor oral hygiene 

• Dental Veneers: Laminates adhesively bonded to the surface of a tooth

• Invisalign: Clear alternative to metal braces for adults, kids, or teens

Emergency Care

Any dental problem that requires immediate treatment:

Saving a tooth, stopping bleeding, or alleviating severe pain are all considered dental emergencies. A severe infection or abscess in the mouth should be dealt with immediately. Basically, any dental problem that requires immediate treatment in order to save a tooth, stop ongoing tissue bleeding, or alleviate severe pain is considered a dental emergency.

Your dentist should be the first person you call if you have a dental emergency. Be sure to keep our after hours contact information readily available at all times.

Preventative Dentistry

At-home oral hygiene and regular dental visits:

Schedule regular dental check-ups every six months; more often if you’re at higher risk for oral disease. Have dental cleanings and screenings which may include x-rays that enable dentists to look for signs of dental problems that are not visible to the eye such as oral diseases, which can interfere with eating, speaking, daily activities, and self-esteem.
