- Teeth CleaningAt Healthy Smiles of Georgia, we can provide you or your children with mouth guards that can serve to protect the teeth. You only get one permanent set of teeth, making it critical to take the steps necessary to preserve them. Dr. Jai always recommends starting by keeping your teeth healthy. When your teeth are free of decay or infection, they will be stronger and less likely to become damaged in an accident. To keep them healthy and strong, we suggest visiting our Alpharetta, GA dental office twice a year for a routine teeth cleaning. You can schedule an appointment by calling (678) 784-0806.
- Fluoride TreatmentNo, you need to care for your fillings just like you do your other teeth. You need to brush at least twice a day and floss on a daily basis. We recommend using fluoride toothpaste, since this can help to further strengthen your teeth and prevent further decay. In some cases, we may even recommend a fluoride treatment in our dental office. You should also be careful to avoid doing anything that could damage your teeth and wear a mouthguard if applicable. Keep in mind that a filling is there to restore your tooth structure both in appearance and in functionality. This means we are not trying to restrict your activities or even what you can eat. Instead, we place fillings to ensure your life is not interrupted and you can return to your normal daily activities quickly.
- Dental SealantsPreventive oral care – Our preventive oral hygiene instructions include the proper way to brush, floss and eat, as well as checking for the ideal fluoride levels and offering sealants.
- FillingsOur cosmetic fillings are safer for your health. This is because they are made of resin or a plastic material. Silver fillings are typically not silver, but a metal alloy comprised of several materials, among them mercury. There have been numerous health warnings regarding the overexposure to mercury, which is why pregnant women are warned to stay away from tuna. While many people believe amalgam fillings are perfectly safe, the data can be contradictory from study to study. If you want to avoid the risks that come with mercury exposure, have tooth-colored fillings placed, or have your existing silver ones replaced, visit our Georgia dental office.
- Resin CompositeWe can place a composite resin filling quickly. This is an affordable and durable restoration that can be placed in less than 30 minutes per tooth. As with most dental care, experience matters, and since we place these fillings on a daily basis, we are skilled at completing the procedure in a way that is comfortable, effective, and fast. If you live in the Alpharetta area, we encourage you to consider the many benefits of getting tooth-colored fillings instead of amalgam ones.
- VeneersDr. Jai is an expert veneers dentist and provides dental veneers so that patients can restore damaged teeth or transform their smile into something beautiful. At Healthy Smiles of Georgia we often treat patients that have a variety of dental concerns. Some patients visit our Alpharetta office because their tooth has been broken while others are looking to create a Hollywood smile. Most people are candidates for the procedure as long as their tooth structure and roots are in place. If, however, you have a cavity or gum disease this will need to be treated before the procedure is completed.
- CrownsA dental crown is a cap that surrounds the tooth. Dr. Jai will typically use a crown to restore a tooth that has been damaged, but they can also be used for cosmetic purposes in order to improve the appearance of a smile. A crown can be made in three different materials, all-metal, ceramic-on-metal, and all-ceramic. Where the crown is located will determine the best material to use. For example, front teeth should have an all-ceramic crown, if possible, since it looks the most natural. Patients throughout Georgia will often use ceramic-on-metal crowns since they look natural but have the durability that only metal can provide.

- Root Canal TreatmentNothing is more painful than the pain of a significant toothache. A major toothache is indicative that you need a root canal. Thanks to root canal treatment
- Deep CleaningDeep cleaning. A deep cleaning is typically conducted in four appointments. Your mouth is broken up into quadrants, with each area being cleaned on a different day. In a deep cleaning, the gums need to be pulled away from the teeth so a dentist can scrape off the plaque and tartar underneath the gum tissue. Naturally, this procedure can cause discomfort, which is why it is completed over multiple visits. However, some dentists use lasers, which can expedite the process.
- DenturesDentures are a trusted solution for replacing missing teeth. At Healthy Smiles of Georgia our patients frequently ask Dr. Jai about dentures to determine if they are a good solution for their particular needs.

- Oral SurgeryIf your wisdom teeth have grown in straight, removing them is fairly easy. In this case, you would visit a 30004 dentist to have them pulled out using dental tools. Most likely, no surgery would be required. However, if your teeth are impacted, the procedure requires oral surgery. In order to access the actual tooth, the gum tissue covering it will need to be cut open. After numbing the area, a flap will be created in the gum tissue. This allows the dentist or oral surgeon to view the tooth. If muscle or bone is covering it, that will also need to be cut away to provide clear access to the actual tooth. At this point, your Alpharetta dentist may be able to grab the tooth and simply lift it out of the socket. If, however, it does not budge when being wiggled; the actual tooth will need to be broken into several pieces that can be extracted individually.
- Jaw SurgeryWhen straightening teeth we do more than move physical teeth into the right position. We also align the bite. Otherwise, you will continue to have problems and discomfort. When wearing braces, the bite is often aligned using a series of rubber bands that hold the jaw in a particular position by stringing a band from one bracket on the top palate to one on the lower jaw. When straightening teeth with Invisalign®, pressure is applied to the teeth to move them into the right position. This means that if your underbite or overbite is caused by your teeth, it can be corrected using aligners. However, if you have a physical problem with your jaw, you may need to have jaw surgery in addition to wearing your aligners. Another option for misaligned jaws, that cannot be fixed using aligners, is to wear traditional braces. When you visit our 30004 dental office, Dr. Jai will let you know if your bite problems can be solved with Invisalign® and very often they can be.
- Tooth ExtractionsWhile our focus at Healthy Smiles of Georgia is on preventative care, we perform tooth extractions on a regular basis. We are always looking for ways to avoid an extraction by keeping your oral health in good shape. This means that we will clean your teeth on a regular basis, discuss a healthy diet with you, and treat gum disease, cavities, and infections as they arise in order to keep your teeth healthy and intact. As a general dentist, Dr. Jai will also restore your tooth if it has been damaged – all of which can help you to maintain your natural teeth for years to come. If you are experiencing discomfort or your tooth is in need of repair, we invite you to call our 30004 dental office at (678) 784-0806 to schedule an appointment. During your examination, we will let you know if your tooth can be saved or if a tooth extraction is the best option for preventing the spread of infection and eliminating your discomfort. In our Alpharetta, GA dentist office, we will take the steps necessary to ensure your comfort so that regardless of which treatment option you select, you will feel relaxed during the process.
- Bone GraftingIf you do suffer from bone loss, you may need a bone grafting procedure. This is where synthetic bone is placed in the area where you experienced loss in order to encourage bone growth. This can be a necessary procedure when you have experienced enough bone loss to negatively impact the health and stability of your other teeth or the appearance of your face. Whether or not this is necessary is highly dependent on what your x-rays show. However, if you identify signs of gum disease and treat it early, you are likely to prevent the need for this procedure.

- BracesMetal braces are a reliable solution for straightening your teeth that have been used by people for decades. In fact, your parents may have used them when they were teenagers. While they work well, the technology is similar in that you still need to have a metal bracket placed on each tooth with a wire threaded between them and secured with rubber bands. Some kids like how they can pick out fun rubber band colors to match their mood or a holiday. If that’s not your idea of fun, metal braces may not be for you.
