If a tooth's pulp (nerve and blood supply) becomes infected or inflamed, root canal treatment may be the only way to save the tooth or relieve severe pain, short of removing the tooth. Root canal treatment consists of removing the nerve that lies within the root of the tooth. With modern techniques, this is generally a very comfortable procedure. Our practice performs root canals, when necessary, on all teeth including molars without outside referrals. In rare instances when root canal treatment does not succeed, retreatment and root canal surgery (apicoectomy) can be done in our office. Very complicated cases will be referred to an endodontist (root canal specialist) as needed.

A remarkable procedure, implants can replace any or all of your teeth. The implant becomes integrated with the bone and acts like an artificial root, which ultimately supports a new tooth. The advantages of implants for patients with dentures are denture stability, increased patient comfort and confidence.

Crowns can strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure and improve the appearance of your teeth. A "cap," "jacket" or "crown" will restore a broken, heavily filled or cracked tooth to an ideal size and shape. This may also be recommended after root canal therapy has been completed, as the tooth is more apt to fracture.

Our dentists are trained and experienced in a broad spectrum of treatment procedures. From routine care-fillings, root canals and extractions-to major services including crowns and bridges, and everything else in between, we would be pleased to create a treatment plan tailored to your needs. 
At our dental office, we value the importance of preventative care and educating patients regarding proper oral hygiene. After all, it is healthy teeth that make you look and feel good and also help ensure that you are able to eat and speak properly. Thorough examinations and professional cleanings allow our dentists to identify problem areas and conditions while they are still in the early stages.

Our dental office is open late during the week to meet your busy schedule.
