From extractions and dentures to crowns and implants, our skilled doctors have a talent for tapping into the services that can best restore your mouth to its healthiest state. In the instance of advanced tooth decay and infection, they can perform a full mouth restoration.
root canals
In the event of infection inside the nerve of the tooth or at the base of a tooth, a root canal is indicated. Our doctors use specialized instruments to remove the infection. After root canal therapy is complete a crown is necessary to fully restore the tooth back to its original function.
Extractions
Extractions are required if a filling or crown can’t control the spread of cavities or infection, or as part of an orthodontic plan to address crowded teeth. Dr. Nieves and Dr. Paranthaman are skilled at extracting teeth and their patient’s comfort is of utmost priority. In most cases, it is imperative to place a bone graft to preserve bone level and thickness for subsequent dentures, partials, or implants.
dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium medical devices used to replace missing or damaged teeth. After the implant integrates into bone, it is restored with a crown. The implant crown looks and functions just like a real tooth.
Who is a good candidate for dental implants?:
Anyone missing a tooth and has the adequate amount of bone to support the implant, is an excellent candidate for implants. After an extraction, it is important to place a bone graft to ensure the implant has enough bone for placement. Implants may be placed immediately after extraction under the right conditions. Dental Implants are not recommended for patients who are smokers and have uncontrolled diabetes.
