Friendly Gentle Care - Services We Offer
Let us guide you on your path to a lifelong healthy and beautiful smile. Modern restorative dentistry preserves and conserves your natural teeth. With whitening, porcelain veneers, natural-looking crowns and bridges, lifelike bonding and clear braces, we’ve changed dentistry from a dull gray or glinting gold experience to a reflection of nature’s own handiwork. Review how these modern treatments can give you the smile you’ve always wanted. Single Visit Crowns – strong, ceramic crowns in a little over an hour Implant Restoration - stable, comfortable tooth replacements that last Orthodontics (tooth straightening) – straighten your teeth without ugly braces Cosmetic Dentures - life like natural beauty, so real even dentists can’t tell Esthetic Smile Makeover (with no shots or painful drilling) - Creating a magazine cover smile Complete Rehabilitation - rebuilding what disease and decay have destroyed Esthetic Techniques – improving the appearance of your teeth at no additional cost Restorative Care - the techniques of reintroducing health and function Continuing Smile Care - regular preventive care Implant Restoration For whatever reason tooth loss has occurred – ineffective dentistry, lack of prevention (fluoride, flossing, brushing), periodontal disease – modern dentistry can provide permanent tooth replacement with the use of implant technology. There are many different implant solutions depending on your existing condition. We can replace one tooth, a few teeth or all your teeth with implant dentistry. They will look and feel much more like natural teeth than dentures. Implants have literally given complete functionality back to our patients. Back To Top Cosmetic Dentures If dentures are still your best option and you want the most life-like and natural result possible, then Dr. Mathias’ Cosmetic Dentures are the answer. Dr. Mathias designs the denture to fit your facial shape and personality. Your teeth appear so real that even dentists are fooled. Back To Top Esthetic Smile Makeover Who can benefit from a smile makeover? Patients with crowded, crooked or short teeth or those with spaces between many teeth, patients with congenitally underdeveloped or disfigured teeth or an entire smile darkened and stained by tetracycline medicine. Because this is a makeover, not just a few front teeth, we are very conscious about how each tooth restoration will effect the other. Replacing the front six or eight teeth might make the most sense when considering what most people will see when you smile, but only enhancing a few front teeth can mean those new teeth might be prone to break or chip. An esthetic makeover without proper planning and follow through is not in our patients’ best long-term interest. Since we strive for the highest quality and long-term patient satisfaction, it is difficult to proceed unless the patient approves a comprehensive makeover when warranted. Not every patient needs a comprehensive makeover, but we want to make sure our patients get the care they deserve. For information on the techniques we use to create a smile makeover go to the Restorative and Esthetic sections below. Back To Top Complete Rehabilitation There are many reasons why one might need a full dental reconstruction. It can be because periodontal disease has destroyed supporting bone causing the loss of teeth or because of recurrent decay on multiple crowns and bridges. Maybe there are bite problems, which have caused excessive wear on the natural teeth and aggravated the TM jaw joint. Perhaps there has been traumatic injury to the mouth and teeth. These conditions could warrant a rehabilitation of the entire mouth. Properly diagnosed, planned and executed, this type of dentistry has allowed patients to return to comfortable, functional, and stable oral health. A beautiful smile is an added benefit of this kind of dentistry. We believe patients are best served by taking advantage of our comprehensive expertise right from the beginning. If you are ready for a comprehensive approach, please contact us at (866) 612-2733 to schedule an appointment. For information on the techniques used to bring back health and harmony, go to the Restorative and Implant sections below. Back To Top Esthetic Techniques • Porcelain Veneers A straighter, whiter, fuller smile is possible without braces and usually in two visits with veneers. These porcelain restorations are lifelike in strength, beauty and function. • Tooth Contouring/Bonding Chipped, cracked teeth refashioned and gaps closed usually in one visit. An enamel-like resin material is molecularly bonded to your teeth, layer by layer, to form a durable, natural-like fusion. • Smile Whitening Tooth whitening can make your teeth far whiter than they ever were. Years of smoking, coffee, and age can be erased. Touch-up treatments are needed since the teeth do continue to age along with the rest of you! Back To Top • Modern Orthodontics Depending on the way a smile has developed, Invisalign might be the best and most effective solution for getting the results desired by the patient. Fortunately, straightening teeth for adults and teens is faster and easier than ever before with “invisible” clear, removable aligners. • Gum line Reshaping A smile can be transformed from gummy to perfect with painless laser treatment. Our expertise in laser dentistry offers patients a high level of artistic results and comfort. Back To Top Restorative Care • Single Visit Ceramic Inlays/Onlays These are amazing breakthroughs in restorative care. Not too long ago we would have been placing many more crowns. When a tooth deteriorated from disease or cracked because of an old metal filling, it often required removal of significant natural tooth structure to securely place a crown. Now, there is an ‘in-between’ solution. With ceramic onlays or inlays, we remove much less tooth to create an appropriate surface to secure the natural looking, tooth-like material. It’s molecularly bonded for a strong, durable, nature-mimicking result that can withstand the tremendous biting and chewing forces the mouth produces. Back To Top • Single Visit Porcelain Crowns Restoring worn, broken down teeth is more effective with modern esthetic crowns because they are molecularly bonded to your teeth, not cemented like metal-based crowns. Because they are ALL-porcelain you won’t ever see a darkened line near the gum line like a metal-based crown. • Porcelain Bridges This natural-looking, missing teeth option can give patients the ability to remove their partial denture for good. • Tooth-Colored ‘Fillings’ This is the modern, non-metal alternative to silver mercury fillings – minimal removable of tooth structure is required. Metal fillings usually need more space so they can be ‘plugged in’. Composite resin restorations or tooth-colored ‘fillings’ are molecularly bonded – creating a fusion of nature and advanced material. It’s healthy high-tech care. Back To Top Continuing Smile Care The bacteria that cause periodontal (gum) disease and tooth decay are constantly present in our mouths. Home care is our first defense against this onslaught. However, brushing and flossing isn’t enough. That’s why we recommend a minimum of two visits each year to our office. Please read our periodontal care information below. We offer many services that make your visit more comfortable and can help you keep your teeth healthy for life. As a comprehensive dental practice with specialized training, we can give you the care you deserve. • Dentistry for adults • Dentistry for the fearful • Painless, one visit root canals • TMJ (jaw joint) Therapy - to relieve aches and pains • Orthodontics - adults and teens • Restorative/Esthetic Dentistry • Crowns, bridges, veneers, bonding, natural-looking fillings • Implant Restoration • Cosmetic Dentures & Cosmetic Partials • Second Opinions • Periodontal (gum and bone infection) Treatment Back To Top Periodontal Care Since periodontal gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults, we are diligent in our approach to making sure periodontal disease doesn’t destroy your smile. If you have noticed bleeding while brushing or flossing, you are experiencing the early stages of the disease. Please call our office and set up an appointment. We have many advanced treatments that can keep the disease from ruining your smile. (Periodontal disease may significantly impact pregnant individuals or those with diabetes or cardiovascular disease. Individuals with periodontal disease may have significantly increased risk for heart diseases and stroke. Women with periodontitis may have increased risk for delivering pre-term, low birth weight babies. Preliminary evidence suggests that periodontal infections may also be associated with lung disease and other remote site infections.) Back To Top |
