Restorative Dentistry
Restorative services repair or replace damaged or missing teeth. Common procedures include fillings for cavities, crowns to protect damaged teeth, bridges to replace missing teeth, dentures for multiple missing teeth, and dental implants for permanent tooth replacement. These treatments restore function and appearance.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic services enhance the appearance of your smile. Popular treatments include teeth whitening, veneers to cover imperfections, bonding to repair chips, gum contouring for a better smile line, and smile makeovers combining multiple procedures. While primarily aesthetic, many cosmetic treatments also improve function.
Orthodontics
Orthodontic services straighten teeth and correct bite problems. Options include traditional braces, clear aligners like Invisalign, retainers to maintain results, and palate expanders for children. Straight teeth aren't just attractive - they're easier to clean and reduce risk of decay and gum disease.
Endodontics
Endodontic services treat the inside of teeth. Root canal therapy removes infected pulp and saves teeth that would otherwise need extraction. Apicoectomy treats infections at the tooth root tip. These procedures relieve pain and preserve natural teeth.
Periodontics
Periodontal services treat gum disease and related conditions. Treatments include deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), gum grafts to cover exposed roots, pocket reduction surgery, and dental implant placement. Healthy gums are essential for keeping your teeth.
Oral Surgery
Oral surgery addresses complex dental issues. Common procedures include tooth extractions (including wisdom teeth), dental implant placement, jaw surgery to correct alignment, and treatment of facial trauma. Oral surgeons have specialized training for these advanced procedures.
Emergency Dentistry
Emergency services address urgent dental problems like severe toothaches, knocked-out teeth, broken teeth, abscesses, and uncontrolled bleeding. Quick treatment can save teeth and prevent complications.
Understanding the types of dental services available helps you communicate with your dentist and make informed decisions about your care. Most dental practices offer multiple service categories to provide comprehensive care.
