| Preventive
Dental Care For All Ages |

Dental
Cleaning & Periodontal Therapy: We provide comprehensive
hygiene services including routine dental cleanings for the
healthy mouth as well as focused therapies to eliminate
periodontal disease. |

Pit &
Fissure Sealants: Sealants are effective in controlling
decay in certain areas of the mouth, particularly in
children. |
|
Digital
Dental X-rays: Digital radiographs are one of the newest
X-ray techniques around. Digital dental X-ray systems are
more sensitive than film systems, so your exposure to X-rays
is cut by as much as 75 percent. The large digital images
let you see what your dentist sees, so it's easier for you
to understand how your dentist will treat your teeth. Once
captured digitally, a radiograph can be examined on the
computer, allowing Dr. Avant to manipulate and/or magnify
the image exponentially. Images acquired digitally can be
instantly shared with specialists and thus improve treatment
planning capabilities. |

| Cosmetic
Dentistry |
| A smile can be
the most eye-catching feature of a face. With
dentistry's many advances, you no longer have to settle
for stained, chipped, or misshapen teeth. You now have
choices that can help you smile with confidence.
|
| Even the most
subtle change in your smile can make a dramatic
difference in the way you look and feel about yourself.
Talk to Dr. Avant about the options most suitable for
you, what your expectations are and the dental fees
involved. |
| Tooth
whitening
is effective in removing some or all of the internal
tooth discolorations due to congenital, systemic,
pharmacologic, traumatic, etc., factors and aging. Teeth
remain lighter for years. |
|
Composite
Bonding is one of the most conservative, versatile, and
affordable ways to esthetically restore a multitude of
dental cases. This material is used to restore cavities in
front & back teeth, replace old or unattractive "silver
fillings", repair root abrasion - helping prevent cavities
and improve appearance, and more. |
|
Unlike
"silver fillings" that depend on undercuts to hold them in
place, composite bonding adheres to the tooth itself. Only a
small amount of natural tooth (as well as any decay) need be
removed in order to place a tooth colored filling. |
| Bonding can
improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped,
broken, cracked, stained, or have spaces between them.
With bonding, tooth-colored materials are applied, or
bonded, to the tooth surface. |
|
All
Porcelain Restorations: All-porcelain (ceramic) dental
materials include porcelain, ceramic or glasslike fillings
and crowns. They are used as inlays, onlays, crowns and
aesthetic veneers.
Veneers are thin
custom-made shells designed to cover the front side of
teeth. Made of tooth-colored materials, veneers are used to
treat spaces between teeth and teeth that are chipped or
worn, permanently stained, poorly shaped or slightly
crooked. |
|
Crowns &
Bridges: Crowns cover your teeth to restore your
natural, youthful smile. They improve your smile by changing
the color, size, shape, and position of your teeth. Bridges
replace lost or missing teeth by using the teeth on each
side of the space for support giving you back your
beautiful, well-balanced smile and prevent shifting and
further damage to your bite. |
|
Crown and
bridge treatment will restore lost teeth, support remaining
teeth and help you maintain optimum dental heath. This
long-term solution can help prevent the cycle of problems
that can occur when just one tooth is missing, such as
shifting of the remaining teeth, decay, periodontal disease
and bone loss. |
