Neuromuscular Analysis

This can be understood as an electronic massage. Further computer equipment analysis may be needed for the more difficult situations.

Whether you are aware of grinding your teeth or not, the wear will show and negatively affect your oral health. We custom-fit night guards to ensure your smile and sleep quality are protected.

I am generally unhappy with my smile

Partial or Full Restorations

Fillings, Inlays and Onlays are examples of Partial Restorations made out of Resin material, Reinforced Resin material, Porcelain and even Gold. Full coverage Restorations are typically made using Porcelain Fused to Metal, full core Zirconia or even Gold. All of these restorations are bonded to the tooth structures to provide longevity. Lately, there has been a tendency to NOT use metals for restorations, and so “gold” is out of favor.

Smile Analysis

The dentist completes a visual analysis of the relationship among the anterior teeth and the rest of the face and head of the presenting patient. Although we can utilize some “Objective and Topological” norms that lead to a beautiful smile, an overall feel of the smile using subjective parameters is also important customized for each patient.

Porcelain Restorations

Replacement of some or all of the tooth material with man-made porcelain (glass-like) material. This material can be sculpted to give life like aesthetic end results and is generally bonded to the existing tooth to give it strength.
