Dental Implants
Durable and long-lasting, dental implants are a highly regarded solution when it comes to replacing missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone by our dentists, thus serving as a sturdy foundation for a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture. Unlike traditional false teeth, implants fuse with the bone, offering a natural feel and appearance while preserving jawbone health.
All-on-4® Implants
The same quality with a personal touch, Sharp Smile Today is our very own version of All-on-4 dental implants that offers a solution for full-arch tooth replacement. This technique uses four implants to securely anchor a complete set of teeth, or denture, combining the best of both for a solid and aesthetically pleasing result. Perfect for patients who have experienced a significant loss of teeth, Sharp Smile Today makes a seamless, healthy outcome possible.
Same-Day Crowns
Thanks to CEREC technology, same-day dental crowns eliminate the need for temporary restorations and lengthy waiting periods. Using CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing), our dentists can design and create a custom-fitted crown in just one visit, ensuring a perfect fit and balanced bite. This advanced process allows for complete procedures, such as a root canal, without additional follow-ups. Enjoy a quick, efficient solution with the durability and precision of same-day crowns!
Periodontal Treatment
Periodontal treatment is essential for combating gum disease and preserving oral health. Aside from prescribed rinses or medication, our dentists may also recommend scaling and root planing, a deep cleaning process that removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline, and smooths tooth roots to prevent bacteria buildup. Combined with laser gum therapy, which targets and eliminates bacteria within the tooth pocket, these treatments effectively reduce infection and promote healing.
Dentures
Our dentists offer a variety of denture solutions tailored to your needs. Choose from full or partial dentures for a natural-looking, removable option. For added security, consider snap-on dentures, which combine the convenience of removability with the stability of dental implants. For a permanent, fixed solution, we offer All-on-4® implants to securely anchor a complete set of false teeth. No matter what you choose, each option is designed to bring your smile back with renewed confidence.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
Full mouth reconstruction is a comprehensive approach that involves combining multiple restorative procedures to address extensive dental damage, gum disease, old dental work, missing teeth, and more. Each treatment plan is personalized, carefully tailored to the specific conditions and needs of the patient. Whether you require crowns, bridges, implants, or periodontal treatment, we create a customized plan to rejuvenate your smile and ensure lasting dental health.
Dental Bridges
Our dental office provides both traditional and implant-supported dental bridges to restore missing teeth and enhance your smile. Traditional bridges use adjacent teeth as anchors to support the replacement tooth, while implant-supported bridges rely on dental implants for a more stable and long-lasting solution. Both options effectively restore function and appearance, filling gaps left by missing teeth. Our skilled team will help you choose the best option to achieve a natural, confident smile.
TMJ Disorder Treatment
If you suffer from morning headaches, facial pain, or other bothersome symptoms, our dentists offer specialized TMJ disorder treatment to restore comfort. We create unique treatment plans tailored to your specific needs, using oral appliances like stabilization splints to properly position the jaw and reduce pressure on the temporomandibular joints (TMJ). These customized solutions help to alleviate pain, improve function, and prevent further damage. With our expert care, you can find relief from TMJ dysfunction and enjoy a healthier, more comfortable jaw.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is a highly effective treatment for saving a tooth that is severely infected or damaged. During the procedure, the infected portion inside the tooth is carefully removed, and the root canals themselves are cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection. This treatment not only gets rid of pain, but it also preserves your natural tooth. Our skilled team ensures a comfortable and precise procedure, helping you maintain your smile and avoid the need for extraction.
Tooth Extraction
To address a variety of dental issues, our dentists provide expert tooth extraction services. For decayed or damaged teeth above the gum line, we offer simple extractions, ensuring a quick and comfortable procedure. For more complex cases, such as impacted wisdom teeth, we perform surgical extractions with precision and care. Across the board, our experienced team is dedicated to providing a safe, efficient, and pain-free experience.
Dental Emergencies
You deserve immediate care when a dental emergency occurs. At Sharp Smile Center, our dentists offer prompt treatment for issues like severe toothaches, broken or knocked-out teeth, and infections. We understand the urgency of these situations and prioritize your comfort and health. Whether it’s a sudden injury or a painful condition, we’re ready to address your needs quickly and prevent further complications with expert care.
