Our whitening services are the safest and most-effective whitening method offered.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation

If you are unhappy with your smile, if you have worn, chipped, broken or missing teeth you would like to replace we can help! Dr. Patton and Dr. Hostetler have received extensive training to restore your dentition to it’s original condition utilizing crowns, veneers, dental implants and many other options.

Veneers

Veneers are permanent, porcelain restorations bonded to the surface of anterior teeth. They provide the color, shape and overall appearance you desire for your teeth and are a great long-term solution to many cosmetic concerns.

Cosmetic Composite Restorations

Composite restorations are tooth-colored fillings that match the shade of your natural tooth. Composite restorations can also be utilized to improve the appearance, color and shape of cracked, chipped and discolored front teeth in certain situations.

Drs. Patton and Hostetler will listen to your concerns and goals and provide you with all of the information necessary for you to make the best treatment decision for yourself.

Restorative Services include the following:

• Composite Fillings

• Crowns & Bridges

• Extractions

• Root Canal Therapy (simple cases)

• Full and Partial Dentures

During your dental exam, the health of your gums and bone will be evaluated in addition to the teeth, themselves.

Periodontal Disease is an infection of supporting tissues and bone of the teeth. Healthy gum tissue fits like a cuff around each tooth. With periodontal disease, the gum tissue pulls away from the tooth. As the disease progresses, the tissue and bone that support the teeth are damaged and over time, teeth may fall out or need to be removed.

Often times, any disease of the gums and bone will not be noticeable until it’s too late, which is yet another reason why regular dental checkups are very important. Treating Periodontal Disease in the early stages can help prevent tooth loss.

Implants are titanium structures that are placed into the jaw bone and act as an artificial tooth root. Implants can be restored in several ways: A single tooth, part of a multi-tooth bridge, or they can be used to attach to a denture to hold it into place. If you are missing teeth or have an ill fitting denture, contact us to find out how dental implants can restore your chewing ability and smile!
