Dental Examination
Over 300 patients were examined within 7 days after experiencing an acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack. All participants underwent clinical and radiographic dental examinations. The team used the individual mean clinical attachment loss measured at four sites per tooth as the primary indicator for periodontitis.
X-rays
We will need current dental x-rays. If your referring dentist has taken x-rays, you may request that they be forwarded to us.
Oral Cancer Screening
After establishing your medical and dental health history profile we will complete a thorough examination. We check for things like bone loss, loose teeth, bite, oral cancer screening, TMJ and signs of periodontal disease.

Teeth Cleaning
Because periodontal disease is an infection, it would seem logical that antibiotics would eliminate the problem. Unfortunately, when treating routine periodontal breakdown, the effects of antibiotics are short-lived. This is because the bacteria that cause the disease reform immediately after the antibiotics are discontinued. In fact, periodontal cleanings done to remove calculus and plaque appear to be as effective as antibiotics in controlling the infection.
Fluoride Treatment

Fillings
Veneers
Crown lengthening is a procedure designed to reshape the gums at the base of the desired tooth or teeth. The purpose of this procedure is to expose additional tooth surface and, if necessary, adjust the bone level. There are many dental conditions that require crown lengthening as part of the restorative procedure. The most common condition requiring crown lengthening is severe tooth decay, where the decay extends below the gum line. Another common problem that calls for crown lengthening is when a tooth has fractured and broken off beneath the existing gum line. Crown lengthening often serves both the functions of cosmetics and necessity in cases where veneers, crowns or bridges are being placed. In these and other restorative procedures, crown lengthening may be vital to restoring a natural smile.
Crowns
Abnormal eruption of teeth can cause the crown length to look short. Though the teeth are a proportionate length, they may be covered too much by the gums.
Bridges
When one or more teeth are missing, you do not need to insert an implant for every missing tooth. Instead, implants can act as a support or fixed bridge work.

Root Canal Treatment
The surgical removal of the apex of the tooth root. Most often done in conjunction with root canal therapy.

Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
Periodontal Surgery
, as a topical application onto exposed root surfaces. It is a very effective therapy that helps to stabilize teeth and improve the outcome of periodontal surgery by regenerating the tissue structures that anchor the tooth.
Deep Cleaning
During this treatment, dental procedures known as scaling and root planning serve to remove plaque, tartar, and calculus from the roots surface, as well as from below the gumline. At home instructions are also given to maintain oral health and prevent disease progression.

Dentures
Periodontal disease is a progressive, painless infection. Delay can cause you further bone loss and more expense. If your teeth are lost, dentures are never as effective as your own teeth.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
For sufferers of gum disease, a deep dental cleaning, antibiotics, or oral surgery may be needed for treatment. For diabetics, the key is having your blood sugar under control. Once your blood sugar is controlled, it is essential to take good care of your teeth and gums by practicing good oral hygiene. Other preventative tips include...
Flap Surgery
Gum Surgery
Gum recession can be uncomfortable and cause sensitivity as well as an aesthetically unpleasant gum line. When you are uncomfortable and unhappy with your smile, you smile less. When it hurts to eat or drink something, you sacrifice. In addition recessed gums can lead to additional health issues and can affect your overall well-being. The Pinhole Gum Surgery is a pain-free, scalpel free, suture free and graft free procedure to improve gum recession.
Osseous Surgery
Reducing pocket depth and eliminating existing bacteria are important to stop the decaying process and to prevent further damage caused by the progression of periodontal disease and, of course, to help you maintain a healthy smile. Osseous surgery is often the first step in fighting periodontal disease. It is important to note, however, that eliminating bacteria alone may not be sufficient to prevent disease recurrence. When pockets become very deep, they are more difficult for you and your dental care professional to clean, so itâ€™s important for you to maintain good oral hygiene after the procedure. A combination of reduced pocket depth, daily oral hygiene, and professional periodontal maintenance increases your chances of keeping your natural teeth and decreases the chance of serious health problems associated with periodontal disease.
Tooth Extractions
Ridge Augmentation
Bone Grafting
The biggest advantage of EmdogainÂ® gel regenerative therapy is that this procedure helps patients regenerate new, healthy tissue without compromising their natural tooth structure. Following the treatment, patients can enjoy natural results without the pain and discomfort of other invasive regenerative treatments, such as bone grafting or guided tissue regeneration. After a year following the procedure, EmdogainÂ® continues to generate new bone and tissue. There is no need for additional surgeries to achieve bone and tissue development.

Teeth Whitening
Gum bleaching allows you to change or improve the natural color of your gum. This technique uses a whitening gel that is applied to the soft gum tissue that lightens the discoloration. The mouth is numbed to prevent any discomfort during the procedure. Once the gel has lightened the gingival color, the gel is removed using a polishing cup to buff the gum tissue and remove the remaining melanin containing cells.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry can correct a “gummy smile.” A Periodontist cuts away excess tissue, sculpting a new gum line. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and any minor discomfort usually lasts a couple of days.
