From routine cleanings and fillings to cosmetic and implant dentistry, Dr. Peter Pollina's office is equipped to handle all of your dental needs. To help you understand more about our office, we've included brief descriptions of some of our most common services on this page.
Initial Oral Examination Your initial oral examination includes a visual examination, charting, periodontal probing, diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We will also take digital x-rays, which reduce radiation exposure to our patients by up to 90% and allows Dr. Pollina to correctly diagnose your current dental condition.
Dental Implants We perform implants for a single missing tooth, multiple missing teeth, or to replace a removable appliance.
Tooth Whitening Our state-of-the-art bleaching system will make your teeth whiter in easy at home applications with outstanding results achieved in just days. We also have an in office whitening system that can whiten your teeth in just a few hours.
Crowns and Veneers You can have a new smile with all-porcelain crowns or veneers on anterior teeth. For the posterior teeth, the latest technology in porcelain crowns are utilized to insure a beautiful, natural looking smile.
Fillings: Resin & Amalgam We use tooth-colored resin fillings that are cured to match your teeth. If an amalgam filling shows in your smile, we can replace it with a tooth-colored resin filling. We also perform porcelain and gold onlays and crowns for posterior teeth.
Cleanings and Periodontal Treatment All patients should have a standard cleaning at least twice a year. A child should have a prophy and fluoride treatment twice a year. A cleaning on an adult might include an adult prophy (basic cleaning), and/or a periodontal scaling and root planning.
Removable Dental Prostheses For patients who are missing multiple teeth, we are experts at fabricating full dentures or partial dentures. We also offer flexible dentures which contain no metal and provide a better aesthetic option for our patients.
