Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  Exams and Cleanings: We provide routine examinations to help you maintain clean teeth and healthy gums, and to help you identify any potential complications in their earliest stages. In addition to removing plaque from the teeth, a regular visit to our office includes an oral cancer screening.
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
  Drs. Ann Pomeranz and Chris Williams provide general dentistry treatments at their Gainesville, Florida office. It is important to have an ongoing relationship with a trusted dentist who can provide regular checkups, intensive cleanings, oral cancer screenings, and other services that help ensure your dental health. In addition to the cosmetic and restorative dental treatments Drs. Pomeranz and Williams offer, they are also able to help you maintain the health of your teeth and gums through routine, preventive care. If you are new to the Gainesville, Florida area, or if you are in need of a new general dentistry provider, please contact us today to start a new chapter of outstanding oral health in your life.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
• Fluoride Treatment
  Fluoride Treatment: Fluoride is a mineral that helps prevent tooth decay by giving your teeth increased resistance to acid. We can help you maintain a healthy presence of fluoride in your mouth with special fluoride treatment. This in-office procedure involves applying fluoride directly to the teeth. To learn more about fluoride treatment and other general dentistry treatments, contact our Gainesville office.
• Dental Sealants
  Sealants: To prevent tooth decay in young patients, we provide dental sealants. These thin plastic coatings are applied to the fine, deep grooves in the tops of the back teeth, preventing the accumulation of food particles and germs. Sealants can last five to ten years, helping patients to retain their dental health while they learn to maintain a daily routine of thorough brushing and flossing.

Restorative

• Fillings
  Fillings: When a cavity develops, the decayed portions of the tooth must be drilled out, and a filling agent must be used to fill the remaining void. We offer tooth-colored fillings, which restore a natural appearance to the tooth. In some cases, an amalgam filling may be a more suitable choice to provide strength and longevity.
• Veneers
  If some of your teeth have minor chips, cracks, or discoloration, porcelain veneers can help them appear straight and undamaged. These porcelain shells are custom-crafted to fit over the front surfaces of teeth, concealing these imperfections.
• Crowns
  All of our restorations are created with the help of trusted area laboratories. We use digital impressions of your teeth to provide the most accurate blueprint for your crown, bridge or dentures.
• Bridges
  If you have teeth that have become severely decayed, but have an adequately healthy outer structure, a root canal treatment performed by our trusted endodontist, can salvage the tooth. Your dentist will remove the tooth's pulp (the inner portion consisting of nerves, blood vessels, and other tissue), fill the tooth with a rubber-like material, and finally seal it with a custom dental crown. Our crowns and bridges are made of porcelain fused to zirconium for outstanding strength and a natural appearance.
• Dental Bonding
  In other cases, dental bonding (the simple application of tooth-colored resin to your tooth) can achieve a similar effect. Small chips, cracks, or gaps between teeth can be masked with dental bonding material.
• Restorative Dentistry
  It's easy to take a mouth full of healthy teeth for granted. Every day, our teeth and gums are the foundations of seemingly simple functions such as eating and speaking. However, when you experience damage to your teeth as a result of injury or decay, or complete tooth loss, the value of a comfortable, functional smile becomes all too apparent. Drs. Ann Pomeranz and Chris Williams help their patients regain a healthy, beautiful, and functional smile through restorative dentistry treatments at their Gainesville, Florida office. Whether you have a single tooth in need of restoration, or an entire smile in need of careful, comprehensive attention, our doctors can provide the treatments you need. To learn more about our restorative dentistry procedures, contact our Gainesville office today.

Endodontics

• Root Canal Treatment
  Dental Crowns: If you have a tooth that is severely worn, decayed or broken-down, a custom-crafted dental crown is an excellent finishing touch to your treatment. These tooth-shaped prosthetics are made from porcelain, giving them a natural appearance as they provide support for your tooth. Often, the final step in a root canal treatment (which we refer to a trusted area endodontist) is the placement of a dental crown.
• Apicoectomy

Periodontics

• Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty

Prosthodontics

• Dentures
  Dentures: If you have lost most or all of your teeth, dentures can restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. These custom-made prosthetic teeth are designed specifically to fit your mouth and achieve a natural appearance. While traditional dentures rest on the gums, held in place with a mild adhesive, we now offer dentures supported by dental implants, which provide unparalleled stability, as well as numerous benefits for the bone structure of your jaw. Schedule a consultation with our dentists to learn more about how we can restore your smile with dentures.

Implants

• Dental Implants
  Another important benefit of dental implants is the retention of bone mass in your jaw. When a tooth is lost, the body will begin resorbing bone cells in the area once occupied by tooth roots. Having dental implants in place halts this process, helping you to enjoy the full support capabilities of your jaw. To find out if you are a candidate for dental implants, contact our Gainesville office today.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
• Tooth Extractions
  Tooth Extractions: Sometimes decay becomes too severe to salvage the tooth, and extraction is necessary. It is also common to experience complications when wisdom teeth (the molars that develop during adolescence) fail to properly erupt, and extraction becomes necessary.
• Ridge Augmentation

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  Orthodontics are our first choice in helping patients improve the appearance of their smiles, because it provides long-term improvement and require no alteration to your tooth structure. We will refer you to an outstanding area orthodontist if this treatment is right for you.
• Invisalign Orthodontics

General

• Teeth Whitening
  Teeth Whitening: A number of circumstances can cause your teeth to adopt a darker color. Genetics, tobacco use, and consumption of certain foods such as yellow mustard, red wine, and coffee can all rob you of the dazzling effects of a bright white smile. Our teeth whitening treatments are designed to lighten the color of your teeth by several shades, creating an attractive, healthy-looking appearance that highlights everything that is wonderful about your smile.
