Anxiety Reduction Options - We offer pre-procedure treatments, such as Nitrous Oxide (aka Laughing gas) and Oral Sedation (Medication) to lower a patient's feelings of stress and anxiety during the procedure.
Biopsy - Taking a tissue sample from the mouth for laboratory evaluation.
Bonding / Composite Reconstruction - Synthetic material used in fillings to restore teeth with cavities and building up teeth. Unlike metal fillings, composite is tooth-colored and virtually 'invisible' when placed. - Composite chemically bonds the teeth to minimize imperfections by changing the teeth's color, shape, or spacing. Bonding can be used for closing small gaps, filling cavities, changing a tooth's shape, repairing chips, concealing discoloration, and more.
Bridge (Fixed Bridge or Fixed Dental Prosthesis) - Dental restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge typically consists of an artificial tooth fused to and held firmly in place between two dental implants or two natural teeth with crowns. A dental bridge is permanently cemented or bonded to the teeth/implants and can't be remove by the patient.
Broken, Chipped, and Fractured Tooth Repair - restoring a damaged tooth, depending on the severity, with procedures like filling, bonding, dental cap or crown.
Cancer Patient and Survivor Dental Care - It is imperative for your dentist to work in close conjunction with your oncologist or other treating physicians. Cancer treatments, such as head and neck radiation, chemotherapy, and blood and marrow transplantation, can cause oral complications by impairing the amount and quality of saliva which makes the patient more susceptible to cavities. Make sure to visit your dentist before beginning cancer treatment.
Cleanings - see Prophylaxis
Crown (Gold or Porcelain) - Hollow restoration covering or replacing the majority of the crown of a tooth or implant.
Deep Cleaning - see Scaling & Root Planing
Diastema Closure ('Gap Closure') - Closing space between teeth, usually with a composite resin material, while maintaining optimal symmetry, proportion, contour, size, and color.
Dry Socket (Alveolar osteitis) - Inflammation of the tooth socket following extraction due to loss of blood clot, leaving the bone exposed and succeptible to infection. Symptoms of dry socket are persistent or worsening pain a few days after an extraction.
Emergency (Dental) - Condition, like a toothache or dental trauma, that causes acute pain, or a situation that requires urgent attention with regard to the teeth, gums, bone, or other related structures. After-hours emergency treatment available. Call 352-384-0050, press 2 and leave a message if no one answers, and we will return your call as soon as possible.
Extraction - Removing a tooth that is either erupted (out of the gums into the oral cavity) or impacted (unerupted with unlikely chances thereof).
Filling (Composite / 'Tooth-Colored') - Restoration of lost tooth structure. While dental research has not proven a link between amalgam dental fillings (containing mercury) and negative side effects, We do not use mercury-based fillings in our office to err on the side of patient and environmental safety.
Fixed Bridge - We replace of one or more missing teeth with a prosthesis cemented or bonded to the abutment teeth or implant replacements.
'Flipper' (Interim Partial Denture) - Temporary prosthesis
