Custom Dental Implant Restorations
Dental implants are often the best solution for replacing missing teeth. Once the dental implant is healed and integrated into the jaw, a crown is then attached for function and esthetics. These dental implant restorations are often supported by generic or stock attachments, which can compromise the long-term success or appearance.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a new approach to tissue regeneration and it is becoming a valuable adjunct to promote healing in many procedures in dental and oral surgery, especially in aging patients. PRP derives from the centrifugation of the patient's own blood and it contains growth factors that influence wound healing, thereby playing an important role in tissue repairing mechanisms.
Diagnodent Cavity Detection
The DIAGNOdent laser is a high tech tool that has made a significant breakthrough in diagnosing tooth decay. As a Class 1 laser, the DIAGNOdent emits a safe, painless pulse of light through the tooth structure and uncovers hidden decay by comparing the reflected florescence of the tooth structure against the established baseline reading. This allows us to identity tooth decay early-on and treat your tooth before it becomes more of a problem.
