Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium screw placement in the jawbone. The process involves osseointegration over 3-6 months, followed by crown attachment. Our team ensures natural-looking results that function like original teeth while preventing bone loss and adjacent tooth movement.
Crown Lengthening
This procedure removes excess gum and bone tissue to expose more tooth structure for restorative or cosmetic purposes. We address decay below the gumline and improve 'gummy' smiles by reshaping tissue. The treatment enables proper crown placement and enhances aesthetic appearance through precise gum contouring.
Sinus Augmentation
Sinus augmentation creates space for dental implants by repositioning the sinus floor in upper posterior areas. Using bone graft materials, we stimulate natural bone growth over 6-9 months. This predictable procedure achieves 95% success rates, ensuring stable implant placement even with initial bone deficiencies.
Soft Tissue Graft
Soft tissue grafts restore receded gums using donor tissue from the palate or adjacent areas. This procedure protects exposed roots from sensitivity and decay while preventing further recession. Our predictable technique addresses both functional concerns and aesthetic improvements through natural tissue integration.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting builds jawbone structure to support dental implants using patient-derived or cadaver bone materials. We harvest bone fragments during drilling procedures or source from tissue banks. This common technique creates stable foundations for implants through natural bone regeneration over several months.

Questions
What causes tooth sensitivity?
Exposed dentin from gum recession allows stimuli to reach nerves, causing sensitivity. We offer specialized treatments and products to manage this condition effectively.
How can I prevent gum disease?
Daily brushing and flossing combined with regular professional cleanings prevent bacterial buildup that causes gingivitis and periodontal disease.
What is periodontal disease?
Chronic bacterial infection affecting gums and supporting bone structures, progressing from gingivitis to severe symptoms like tooth loss if left untreated.
How are dental implants beneficial?
Implants preserve bone structure, function like natural teeth, and avoid altering adjacent teeth compared to traditional bridges while offering permanent tooth replacement.
Who qualifies for dental implants?
Most patients qualify except those with severe systemic conditions affecting healing. We evaluate individual cases considering overall health status and oral anatomy.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, we provide financing options to make periodontal treatments and dental implants accessible. Contact our office for specific details and arrangements.
