A filling restores a damaged tooth back to its normal function and shape, and prevents further decay by eliminating areas of the tooth where bacteria can enter. There are a number of factors to consider when choosing which type of filling material is best for you; including the extent of the repair, any allergies you may have to certain dental materials, location of the filling and cost.
Scaling and Root Planing is a non-surgical deep cleaning around and below the gumline, all the way down to the bottom of the pocket, to remove plaque and tartar and any infection that may be developing or already present. The roots are then smoothed to help the gums reattach to the teeth. Scaling and root planing often take more than one visit to complete and may require a local anesthetic.

For fast and efficient whitening, we suggest supervised treatments by a dental professional. This option contains whitening agents in higher concentrations and produces quicker results than over-the-counter options. In fact, your teeth may be visibly whiter in just one visit!

Teeth Whitening
Report
Having your teeth whitened is one of the easiest and safest ways to take years off your smile! Unsightly stains from food, beverages or tobacco use can be reduced or eliminated through our whitening process. Prior to whitening, you will receive a thorough exam to ensure that whitening alone will provide you with the results you're looking for.
Periodontal Services
Report
Periodontal, or Gum, disease is a serious infection of the tissues that hold your teeth in place and can destroy the jawbone. It is common but fairly preventable and typically caused by poor oral hygiene that allows plaque to build up on the teeth and harden, inflaming the gums which leads to tooth loss.
