- Dental ExaminationAfter which, a comprehensive exam is performed to gather all the necessary information to develop a customized treatment plan. During this exam, photos of your smile, digital impressions of your teeth and mouth, along with a 3D Ct-scan x-ray is taken to evaluate the health of your bone to better formulate a comprehensive treatment plan. A follow-up appointment is set up to go over treatment options for your desired transformation.

- Space MaintainersSpace maintainers are helpful dental devices that can help teeth grow in normally following premature tooth loss, injury or other problems. The devices can help ensure that proper spaces are maintained to allow future permanent teeth to erupt.
- VeneersVeneers are a fast and safe way to rejuvenate your smile. They re-sculpt, recolor, and strengthen the teeth.
- CrownsDuring your follow up appointment, we evaluate the implant and determine when to start the process of preparing the site for receiving a tooth. Once the gums are prepared, a digital impression is taken to custom design the abutment and crown at our office. At your final visit, your new tooth is permanently placed onto the implant. Your new tooth looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth, and requires only regular good oral hygiene to last a lifetime.

- DenturesDental Implants solve many issues. Dental Implants may be used to retain partial or a full set of teeth for a more secure fit in the form of an implant bridge. The quality-of-life improvement is immeasurable, as denture-wearers discover they can smile, speak, and finally eat the food they love with confidence.
- Dental ImplantsAs a stand-alone restoration, a single implant will restore your appearance and chewing function without compromising the adjoining teeth (as is necessary with a bridge).

- Bone GraftingIn the event where inadequate bone volume exists where teeth have been missing for quite some time, you might have to undergo a procedure of bone regeneration known as “bone-grafting” to rebuild the bone in anticipation of implant placement. At Garden State Dental Design, we use a homeopathic approach utilizing your own blood, in the form of PRGF Endoret® (Plasma Rich in Growth Factors). This is performed at the time of hopeless tooth removal or at the time of implant surgery to help with the regeneration of bone and soft tissue ensuring successful healing.
