Initial Oral Examination
Your initial oral
examination includes a visual examination, charting, periodontal
probing, diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We will also take
x-rays, which includes the panoramic x-ray for proper diagnosis of the
anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth as well as the bite-wing
x-ray series for proper diagnosis of proximal decay of posterior teeth.
Implants
are synthetic structures that are placed in the area of the tooth
normally occupied by the root. Implants are anchored to the jawbone or
metal framework on the bone and act as a foundation for an artificial
tooth or permanent bridge. In some cases, implants can be used to attach
dentures.

surface, sculpted to an ideal shape, hardened, and then polished for an
ideal smile. This procedure usually can be accomplished in a single
visit.

Crowns
are synthetic caps, usually made of a material like porcelain, placed
on the top of a tooth. Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth's
function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root
canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions
of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the
tooth.

Whitening
procedures have effectively restored the smile of people with stained,
dull, or discolored teeth.The darker tissue of your teeth, the dentin,
can become exposed as the outer layer of enamel is worn away by the
effects of aging or things like caffeine and tobacco.

Simple
toothaches can often be relieved by rinsing the mouth to clear it of
debris and other matter. Sometimes, a toothache can be caused or
aggravated by a piece of debris lodged between the tooth and another
tooth. Avoid placing an aspirin between your tooth and gum to relieve
pain, because the dissolving aspirin can actually harm your gum tissue.

tissues. It is made of acrylic resin, sometimes in combination with
various metals.
