Preventative Care
We use preventative care as part of our general dentistry services. We’re here to keep your teeth and gums healthy and prevent future dental problems.
Routine dental cleanings are key to preventing common dental issues like tooth and gum infections. One of our registered dental hygienists (RDH) will scale, brush, floss, and polish your teeth. During your visit, we also perform a thorough exam to check for early signs of decay or other dental concerns.
If we find a cavity, we may recommend a dental filling to restore the tooth and protect it from further damage. In cases where decay reaches deeper into the tooth, you may need a root canal. We’re here to remove infection and relieve pain while saving the natural tooth.
Orthodontics for Teens and Adults
Cosmetic dentistry is all about improving how your teeth and gums look. Invisalign is one of the most common and popular cosmetic treatments. Many teens and adults choose this orthodontic treatment because it offers a more comfortable and discreet way to straighten their teeth.
Instead of metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners. The clear aligners gently move teeth into better positions over time. Invisalign aligners are easy to remove and clean. Unlike metal braces, you have no dietary restrictions because Invisalign uses removable aligners.
Implant Dentistry
Losing a tooth affects more than just your smile. It can make chewing harder, change the way you speak, and even cause nearby teeth to shift out of place. Missing teeth can also lead to bone loss in the jaw over time, which may change the shape of your face.
As an experienced implant dentist, Dr. Lotardo recommends dental implant restorations because they replace both the root and the visible part of the tooth. Dental implants are placed in the jawbone, where they act like natural tooth roots.
The titanium implant posts provide strong and long-lasting support. Once healed, the implant is restored with a custom crown, bridge, or denture that looks and feels like a natural tooth.
