Cleanings: When you come in for a cleaning, our hygienist will perform what we call, a dental prophy. This is when the hygienist removes plaque and calculus that have grown on your teeth. You will also have all your teeth polished to remove any stains and other plaque left behind after teeth brushing. During a cleaning your hygienist will also check your gums, throat and other tissues to make sure everything is in tip top shape and that your pearly whites are smooth and clean. Exams: After your teeth cleaning, Dr. Wilson will pop in to check...

Teeth whitening (or bleaching) is a simple, non-invasive dental treatment used to change the color of natural tooth enamel and is an ideal way to enhance the beauty of your smile. Because having whiter teeth has now become the number one aesthetic concern of most patients, there are a number of ways to whiten teeth. The most popular method is using a home teeth whitening system that will whiten teeth dramatically. Since teeth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, it is important to evaluate replacement of any old fillings, crowns,...

Extraction: Impacted or exposed teeth can potentially cause infections and may need to be removed. Extractions can range from a single tooth, to removing all teeth at once. Based on the preference of Dr. Wilson and/or the patient, a local anesthetic will be used to numb the areas where the teeth will be extracted.The gum tissue around the tooth is cut open to reveal the bottom half of the tooth. The tooth is loosened by gripping it tightly and wiggling it back and forth until it can be lifted out of the gums. Sometimes a tooth may be impacted...

Endodontics is the dental specialty that deals with the nerves of the teeth, otherwise known as root canal therapy. Root canals are probably the most dreaded procedure in dentistry and the most common procedure relating to endodontics. When a tooth becomes infected it is usually because the nerve of the tooth has died, and the infected nerves need to be removed. If left untreated an infection can turn into an abscess, which is a much more serious problem that includes bone loss. "Root canal" has become a scary term for dental patients to hear,...

Bonding/Fillings: Composite fillings/bonding is a popular method to enhance the aesthetics of your smile. They can be used to correct cracks or gaps in teeth. They are also used to fill in the void after a cavity or replacement of an old "silver" amalgam filling. The composites/bonding used at our office are custom tooth colored. With the advancements in dental technology, composites/bonding usually lasts up to 5-7 years. It is a safe, affordable, and attractive solution for many dental problems.Crowns: Over time our teeth begin to weaken and...
