- Dental Examination
- X-rays
- Teeth CleaningOur office provides some periodontal therapy and maintenance cleanings. Most times, we work in conjunction with a Periodontist.
- FillingsWe offer amalgam “silver” and composite “tooth colored” restorations. The use of silver amalgam filling is supported by the American Dental Association and the F.D.A. has concluded that silver amalgam fillings are safe. Both materials have pros and cons, and we base our recommendations upon the clinical situation and which material we feel would give the patient the best long term success for adult or children’s dentistry.
- Veneers
- CrownsTo keep your temporaries in place, avoid eating sticky foods (gum), hard foods, and if possible, chew on the opposite side of your mouth. It is important to brush normally, but floss carefully. Don’t pull up on the floss which may dislodge the temporary, but pull the floss out from the side of the temporary crown. Occasionally, the temporary crowns come off. If so, place toothpaste in the temporary crown and seat it back on your tooth. Call the office at 706-863-0111 so we can schedule you to recement the temporary crown. It is very important for the temporary to stay in place, as it will prevent other teeth from moving and compromising the fit of your final restoration. It is normal to experience some temperature and pressure sensitivity after each appointment. The sensitivity should subside a few weeks after the placement of the final restoration. If your bite feels uneven, if you have persistent pain, or if you have any other questions or concerns, please call our office at 706-863-0111.

- Dental ImplantsDental Implant crowns and Dental Implant supported Dentures. Dental Implants have enhanced and improved the lifestyle of many patients, and implants could be a great option to replace any missing tooth.
- Oral Surgery
- Tooth ExtractionsAfter tooth extraction, it’s important for a blood clot to form to stop the bleeding and begin the healing process. That’s why we ask you to bite on a gauze pad for 30-45 minutes after the appointment. If the bleeding or oozing still persists, place another gauze pad and bite firmly for another 30 minutes. You may have to do this several times.
