Cosmetic Dentistry
There’s no reason to hide behind less-than-perfect teeth. After all, a clean, healthy mouth and a beautiful smile are your best assets! Our practice specializes in a wide array of cosmetic dentistry procedures, including bonding, crowns, and veneers, and we aim to give you the dazzling results you want—and deserve. We are devoted to giving you the exact look you desire, whether that requires delicate enhancement or more complex procedures. We offer a vast range of missing tooth-replacement options, including crowns, bridges, removable dentures, partial dentures, and implants. Here are just a few of the cosmetic dentistry procedures we offer that are designed to beautify your smile:

Whitening
We are now proud to offer 1 hour in-office teeth whitening with Zoom™. Many of us feel that our smiles are most striking when our teeth look especially white, but unfortunately, soft drinks, coffee, tea, and tobacco can leave behind ugly stains. To help you restore your gleaming, bright white smile and to give you an added boost of confidence, we offer many options, including both in-office and take-home whitening procedures. Please contact us today to learn more about our tooth whitening options or to find out which one is best for you.

Bleaching
Everyone feels more beautiful when he or she has a gleaming, bright white smile. Unfortunately, soft drinks, coffee, tea, tobacco, and other dark foods or drinks leave ugly stains on our teeth. We offer a wide range of in-office bleaching options to restore teeth to dazzling perfection and to provide an extra boost of confidence. To find out which option is best for you, please contact our practice today.

Bridges
Sometimes a little extra work is needed to create your desired smile. If you are missing teeth, having trouble speaking or chewing, or notice strain when biting, bridges may be the ideal option to help make your mouth healthy and beautiful again. Sometimes referred to as fixed partial dentures, bridges literally bridge gaps between teeth by filling them with strong, natural-looking artificial teeth. Bridges are relatively permanent and can only be removed by a dentist, but are completely comfortable and proven to make teeth strong. To find out if bridges are the right option for you, please contact us today.

Bonding
A smile can be dulled by stained, chipped, cracked or misaligned teeth, but bonding can quickly and painlessly restore your smile’s natural beauty. During the procedure, a thin coating of plastic or resin is painted over the damaged teeth. The new coating strengthens your teeth and is virtually indistinguishable from natural color.

Crowns
Also called caps, crowns are natural-looking covers that fit snugly over teeth to conceal cracked, badly discolored, injured, or chipped teeth. Crowns minimize physical discomfort and provide support to damaged teeth. Ultimately, crowns can improve the overall appearance of your smile while making your teeth more resistant to injury.

Implants
Dental implants are an excellent solution to missing individual teeth. Dr. Green will attach artificial teeth below the gum line using an anchor. The anchor holds the implant in place, allowing excess bone and gum to grow around it. The result is a strong, secure tooth that is virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. Because dental implants require surgery, they are intended only for candidates with sufficient bone and healthy gums.

Veneers
An excellent alternative to crowns, veneers can perfect your smile by masking stains, hiding chips, correcting misalignment, and creating uniformity. Veneers, which are made of thin, customized material, are designed to slide over the teeth, look incredibly natural, are long lasting, and are relatively easy to apply.

To find out which option is best for you, please contact our office today.

General Preventative Dentistry
Regular brushing and flossing are excellent for maintenance between office visits, but a healthy mouth and beautiful smile require routine general and preventative care to stay that way. Our practice offers general care that includes regular oral examinations and cleanings. Our preventative care includes fluoride, professional breath control, and periodontal (gum disease) treatments designed to help you maintain your smile’s health and beauty. Keep your teeth and gums strong and healthy. Contact our office today to schedule a cleaning or consultation.

CariFree Treatment Program
Do you know that today the number one dental disease is carries? The biofilm that the bacteria reside in causes carries. There is a new mouth and tooth rinse (CariFree) that will help make you less susceptible to dental carries.

Children’s Dentistry
Kids want to be comfortable, entertained, and respected. Adults want the best technology, the most informed doctors, and the highest quality care. We understand that kids and adults have different needs and priorities, and here we address them all. That's why our staff has extensive experience working with children. Dr. Green knows how to make children’s dental experience as pleasant as possible. Please contact us today for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Restorative Dentistry
Having a dazzling, healthy smile can make a positive difference in anyone’s life—it can restore not only one’s youthful appearance, but also the confidence and self-esteem that come with it. We offer a full range of restorative dentistry procedures, from missing tooth replacement to endodontics. Dr. Green welcomes patients with high esthetic expectations. We have a solution for all restorative dental needs. Please contact our office today to schedule a consultation.

Dentures – Prosthodontics

Dr. Green has over 30 years of experience and education in prosthodontics. He taught partial and complete dentures at Ohio State University College of Dentistry from 1974–1979, and continues to advance with modern technology. Contact Dr. Green today to discuss your options.

Custom Dentures
Today’s technology allows us to fully customize dentures to fit your mouth precisely and to exactly match the color of your existing teeth. A good fit ensures chewing comfort and added strength. If you have any questions about dentures, we can help. Please contact our office today.

Full Dentures
Dentures are an excellent option for people who have lost all their teeth. Precisely designed and molded to fit one’s mouth, full dentures slide over the gums and are held in place with strong cheek and mouth muscles. They allow for comfortable chewing and keep the mouth and its surrounding facial features in proper alignment.

Partial Dentures
Sometimes, dentures are the best option to solve the problem of missing teeth. When properly fitted and designed, dentures—which are strong, comfortable, and virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth—can provide extra chewing comfort, maintain facial structure, and ensure added strength.

Partial or Removable Dentures
Partial or removable dentures fill gaps left by missing teeth. Partial dentures are held in place with metal clasps or precision devices (tooth-colored, discreet clasps) that are attached to natural teeth. Usually made of resin or metal, partial dentures allow more comfortable and effective chewing, improve speech, and prevent sagging of the cheeks and lips. To find out if partial dentures are right for you, please contact our practice today.

TECHNOLOGY
Our practice is proud to use cutting-edge technology to give you the best experience and most dramatic results possible. Dr. Green is committed to continuing education, and makes full use of the latest innovations. When you come to our practice, you can be sure that you are getting the most advanced care with the latest technology.

IV SEDATION & COMFORTABLE DENTISTRY

Dr. Green is certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (A.C.L.S.) to provide comfortable dentistry through IV sedation. Although our patients are not unconscious under sedation, they are in a complete state of relaxation and cannot feel any pain. We ensure maximum comfort during oral treatment, and monitor you throughout the procedure to assure your safety.

COMPUTER IMAGING
