Porcelain veneers are extremely thin, custom-made, dental restorations that I, a dentist, can place on the front of the teeth to improve their appearance. In our practice we use veneers to change and drastically improve smiles by hiding stained, uneven, and chipped teeth.
Periodontal disease, or most commonly referred to as gum disease, is an infection of the gingival and bone tissues that hold your teeth in place. Gum disease is typically caused by poor oral hygiene habits such as lack of brushing, flossing, and visiting your dentist regularly for cleanings.
Despite dental care being more readily available in the 21st century, there are still millions of Americans who will unfortunately endure tooth loss throughout their lives. The primary reasons for tooth loss are typically tooth decay, periodontal disease, or tooth injury.
Dentistry is built upon the bond and relationship that we forge with our patients. The trust that we develop with a patient when we alleviate his or her dental pain is truly amazing. We believe our work makes a difference in the everyday lives of our patients, and the relationships we form are the most rewarding part of our profession.
We treat every patient as if he or she is family. Our staff understands the importance of making people feel comfortable in the dental environment, and takes the time to really get to know every patient as an individual. We are a family-based practice and take great joy in treating patients of all ages.
