Services
Porcelain Veneers
Custom porcelain veneers enhance smiles by correcting chipped, stained, or misaligned teeth. Using digital design software, Dr. Meden creates natural-looking, durable shells bonded to teeth for aesthetic and functional improvement. Ideal for patients seeking permanent solutions with minimal tooth reshaping.
All-on-X Implants
All-on-X implants replace missing teeth with fixed prosthetics anchored by four or more implants. This technique avoids bone grafting in many cases, offering faster healing and immediate functionality. Patients regain confidence with natural-looking, permanent teeth that mimic real tooth roots.
Gummy Smile Treatment
Gummy smile treatment reduces excess gum exposure through laser gingivectomy or lip repositioning. These minimally invasive procedures sculpt gum tissue or adjust lip movement for balanced aesthetics. Results are permanent, improving both appearance and oral health.
Dental Crowns
Custom metal-free crowns restore damaged or weakened teeth with durable porcelain caps. The process involves digital impressions and temporary placement, ensuring precise fit and aesthetics. Crowns protect compromised teeth while enhancing their shape, color, and function.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation options like IV anesthesia and nitrous oxide ensure comfortable procedures for anxious patients. On-site anesthesiologists manage deep sedation, allowing complex treatments to be completed efficiently. This approach prioritizes patient relaxation and safety during restorative or cosmetic work.
