Restore Your Smile with Dental Implants
Dental implants are a great way to replace lost teeth. From the front of the mouth, where they can be seen, to the back, where they provide a platform to chew a complete range of foods, implants can assist you in regaining your beautiful and healthy smile. Unlike bridges or removable dentures, which rest above your gums, dental implants are installed under your gums. The “tooth” positioned on an implant seems life-like, because it comes through your gums just like your original did – it’s like growing a new tooth! Implants will replace any number of lost teeth. Even people with no teeth can take advantage of implants, because they can exchange their dentures for teeth that won’t shift around when they talk and don’t need to be removed at night. Because we do the entire process from implant placement to crown fabrication, you usually don't need to be referred to another office.

A Clear Alternative for a Straighter Smile
Dr. Brent is delighted to offer Invisalign™ invisible aligners, a state-of-the-art solution that permits many patients to have straight teeth in as little as 6 - 15 months! These aligners can adjust for overcrowding, widely spaced teeth, overbite, underbite, crossbite, open bite, or deep bite. If malocclusion is left untreated, it can lead to stress and early wear on your teeth and gum disease.
Invisalign uses 3-D computer-imaging technology to plan your entire treatment from the present position of your teeth to your future smile. From this plan, clear thermoplastic aligners are produced. These are like teeth-whitening trays and are tailor-made to exactly fit your teeth. When you install the first set of aligners, they use gentle forces to shift your teeth slowly into position. Every one to two weeks, you swap them with the next set of aligners. You only need to visit the office for assessment every four to eight weeks. Total treatment time is based on your personal needs and goals. Dr. Brent and members of her team have undergone Invisalign, so you can see the results first hand!

Do You Have Receding Gums? Consider a Lunchtime Gum Lift™!Many factors can contribute to gum tissue becoming lost, leaving the roots of your teeth at risk: growing older, periodontal disease, even brushing too hard. When your gums recede and the root structure of your tooth is exposed, the chances of decay, sensitivity, and other infections increase exponentially. Since healthy gums are essential to maintaining healthy teeth, getting gum recession treated as soon as possible is a vital step in your oral care.
After advanced training, Dr. Brent is excited to offer a minimally invasive newer technique known as the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique (PST™). In just one visit, Dr. Brent can treat as many teeth as needed, and you will have minimal recovery time! No grafts, no stitches, and no incisions!
With Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation, a small hole is created in the gums, and the gum tissue is gently released and shifted to cover the root structure. Your existing tissue is simply moved to a better position. The results are natural-looking and long-lasting. Ask us if this treatment is right for you.
