Implants
Dental implants are small titanium
cylinders that are embedded in the bone of the
jaw. They act as a replacement for the tooth's
original root system. Bone is continuously lost
after teeth have been lost. Implants help keep
the bone from receding . Dental implants are
more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework,
since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth
for support.. Some people are just not able
to comfortably wear an upper or lower denture,
dental implant provide support for a denture,
making it more secure and comfortable.

Root Canals:
Deep tooth decay or injury can cause serious
damage and infection to the pulps nerves and
vessels.and cause severe pain. Root canal, also
known as endodontic treatment, cleans out the
infected nerve and canals and replaces the organic
material with an inert filling.
Some indications of the need for root canal
treatment may be:
• Spontaneous pain or throbbing
• Pain while biting or chewing
• Sensitivity to hot and cold
We use State of the Art techniques and in most
cases a root canal can be completed in one visit! Digital Imaging:
Digital dental
x-ray imaging is a state of the art diagnostic tool. Instead of viewing
tiny x-ray film images the digital images are displayed on computer monitors.
In addition to being a much better diagnostic aid the amount of radiation
is reduced by 80% compared to regular dental x-ray film!
Regular
dental x-ray film time exposure is 1 second vs. digital x-ray 8/100th
of a second more accurate diagnosis with 80% less radiation.
