- Dental Examination
- X-rays
- Teeth CleaningAn initial visit would include an exam, x-rays and teeth cleaning if needed. If indicated by the exam, more substantial treatment such as fillings or extractions would be scheduled for a follow up appointment. The follow up work would be detailed in a prepared Treatment Plan that would describe the recommended treatment, options, and costs. It would be presented to the patient or appropriate party for discussion and approval prior to treatment.
- Fillings
- VeneersA popular cosmetic service that patients come to Itani for are veneers. Porcelain veneers cover up your existing set of teeth for a white, straight smile. They are easy to install and practical for people with stains or gaps in their teeth.
- CrownsModern dental implants are precision devices, available in several different designs to address your specific needs. The most common type is a titanium screw that is anchored into the jawbone where it serves as a post for a custom-made tooth crown. Once the crown is in place, you may not be able to tell it apart from your natural teeth.
- Bridges
- Root Canal TreatmentAt Itani Dental, we provide a full range of general dental services, including dental implants, crowns, veneers, bridges, fillings, extractions, and root canals. But we also help our patients avoid complex and costly procedures by providing solid, preventative dental care. By controlling plaque and calculus with good oral hygiene, patients, together with dental professionals, can prevent tooth decay and gum disease from appearing and spreading.
- Dentures5) Caring for Dentures: This is especially important in aging adults who show signs of dementia. Dentures must fit properly and your dentist should be consulted immediately if sore spots develop, the fit is uncomfortable, or if there are any chips and breaks in dentures.
- Dental ImplantsWe offer dental implants for patients with good general oral health who have lost a tooth or teeth. www.perio.org notes that “Implants are more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support,” which can be critical for those considering a permanent option.
- Oral SurgerySimilarly, we treat multiple patients suffering from head and neck cancer with dental treatments and oral surgery. Whenever a patient is dealing with a complex medical condition, a hospital dentist is essential. Radiation and chemotherapy can cause long-term oral health issues, so we’ll thoroughly inspect a patient’s teeth before they undergo one of these treatments.
- Tooth Extractions

- BracesAfter the regular aligner or braces treatment is complete, retainers composed of similar plastic material are usually required to be worn, at least at night.
