"New Patients
Always Welcome"
We provide a full range of modern dental services for your entire family.  Below you will find just some examples of the
wide variety of care that our patients receive.  
Athletic mouth guards should be worn by all athletes to lessen the risk of injury to their mouth.  A custom-fitted
guard is made by taking a model of one's mouth.  This gives the mouth guard a comfortable and exact fit.  Our office
provides these guards to all our student patients for FREE!   (Link to

Sealants  are a protective coating applied to a tooth to eliminate deep grooves and pits that naturally occur on some
teeth.  These deep grooves accumulate bacteria and food debris which can lead to tooth decay.  A sealant creates a
smooth surface which allows the toothbrush to clean better.  (Link to

Deep Grooves                           Sealant
Fluoride when applied, will attach to and harden the tooth surface.  This will make the tooth more resistant to tooth
decay.  We use a 2 minute, in office rinse, for our patients under 18.  For adults or teens with active tooth decay, we
prescribe Prevident fluoride gel for daily home application.  (Link to

Recaldent or MI paste goes a step further than Fluoride.  Recaldent is made from milk protein, and when applied to a
tooth, actually replaces (repairs) lost calcium and protein.  Recaldent can be applied at home, using custom fitted trays.  
Please note that Recaldent is cross allergic to milk products.  (Link to

Snoring affects an estimated 80 million people in North America. Take into account the snorer’s
spouse and children, as many as 160 million people are negatively affected by snoring. The Silent
Nite is an affordable custom-made snore prevention device that is flexible, thin and comfortable for
the patient. The Silent Nite has exhibited excellent clinical success for preventing annoying and
unhealthy snoring.  For more information, please give our office a call. (

Bad breath (Halitosis) can be a sign of an active mouth infection or general health condition.  Bad
breath can also be caused by a build-up of bacteria on the surface of the tongue which produce a
sulfur based bi-product.  If these bacteria are the culprit, a system of tongue cleaning and specific
medicated mouthwash can correct the problem.   (Link to

TMJ problems and night clenching (bruxism) are very common.  Some symptoms include pain  
around the ear, clicking noises when opening the mouth, or tenderness of the jaw when waking.  
Clenching can also cause receding gums, notching of the sides of the teeth, generalized tooth
sensitivity, and even fractured teeth.  Most patients can be treated by simply having them wear a
custom-fit night guard (retainer) when they sleep. (Link to

Metal-free dentistry is an option for all patients receiving dental care.  Silver fillings are still  
considered as a safe and cost-effective option for tooth repair. (Link to
more information)  But with
the advancement of modern dental materials, new more cosmetic metal-free alternatives are
available to all our patients.  Services such as tooth colored fillings, metal free all-porcelain crowns
and bridges, as well as metal free partial dentures are among the possibilities.  We will be happy to
discuss with you all your treatment options.
Sleep Apnea and snoring can be caused by a constricted or collapsed airway.  When asleep, a
person's tongue can relax into the back of their throat. This tongue position causes their airway to
narrow.  One treatment option for sleep apnea is the use of a night-time retainer called a TAP
appliance. The TAP is designed to hold the lower jaw forward which repositions the tongue and
allows the airway to remain open. Please ask your physician if you are a candidate for the TAP
appliance.  For more information, please give our office a call.  (Link to
