Our dentist makes every effort to preserve your natural teeth. However, extractions become necessary when decay has made the tooth unsalvageable or when you have advanced periodontal disease.
A dental implant mimics the form and function of a natural tooth, which consists of a root and a crown. An oral surgeon will place the implant then Dr Stewart will place the crown.
Excessive jaw clenching and bruxism can accelerate tooth and jaw deterioration. Meanwhile, snoring can impact the quality of your own sleep and that of those around you.
Recommended cleaning for patients who are periodontally compromised. Periodontal maintenance involves removing plaque both above and below the gum line, and the root surface of the tooth.
