- Dental ExaminationOur hygiene cleanings and dental exams clear your teeth of plaque and tartar buildup, take x-rays, assess the health of your teeth, gums, and bone, and check for signs of disease, decay, or cancer.
- X-rays
- Teeth CleaningWe accept many major dental insurance companies at our practice and can help you maximize the benefits offered by your plan. Most dental insurances will pay in full for preventive services, such as dental cleanings and x-rays, and will often pay for the majority or all of select functional treatments like root canals or tooth extractions. We can assist you in taking advantage of the specific benefits your insurance offers. No matter if you have dental insurance or not, or you still need help paying for our dental care, we’re here to ensure your treatment with us is affordable!
- FillingsIf you need a cavity filled or want to replace an amalgam filling, we use composite fillings. These tooth-colored fillings are made from a durable composite resin and are a more aesthetic way to restore a tooth after a cavity.
- Resin CompositeIf your tooth has suffered more extensive decay or when you damage a cusp of a tooth, we’ll replace the strength and structure of your tooth with a porcelain or composite resin. Inlays restore the inside portion of the tooth, while onlays replace a section of a tooth.
- VeneersIf you’re worried or embarrassed by the cosmetic appearance—chips, cracks, gaps, or stains—of your otherwise healthy teeth, then porcelain veneers are an excellent treatment choice. Veneers essentially “hide” cosmetic problems by covering over the front (or visible) portion of each tooth a with porcelain shell, thus restoring ideal shape, color, and size, all in one treatment. You’ll still have most of your healthy teeth, including the natural roots, but they’ll be the foundation for attaching your custom-designed restorations and what will be visible when you smile. Best of all...

- Restorative DentistryBone grafting treatments allow you to experience a healthy smile, even after you’ve lost significant bone in your jaw. More importantly, bone grafting gives your jaw the strong, dense foundation needed to support one or more dental implants and a new tooth or set of teeth. Dental implants have revolutionized restorative dentistry by offering patients the next best thing to having natural and healthy teeth! With dental implants, we can replace any number of lost teeth and provide you with a functional and healthy smile that can last for the rest of your life. To ensure your dental implants are strong and functional from day one, we may recommend you undergo a bone grafting procedure first.

Dr. Mahon has taken advanced training in Endodontics and Oral Implantology.
- Gingivectomy and GingivoplastyEven if you have advanced periodontal disease, it is possible to restore your health. Our gum disease treatment includes scaling and root planing and gingivectomy. These treatments are designed to remove bacteria-releasing plaque and tartar from the teeth and to remove diseased gum tissue. The goal is to disinfect the area from all infection and reduce the pocket depth around each tooth so that plaque and tartar cannot accumulate as quickly and healthy gums can reattach more securely to the teeth. Gingivitis is the only stage of gum disease that can be effectively cured. All other stages will need periodontal maintenance to keep the teeth, bone, and gums healthy long-term. This maintenance is a deeper cleaning of the periodontal pockets around the teeth to remove bacteria and calculus on the teeth every 3-4 months. While prevention is the key to avoiding gum disease, it can be effectively managed with our targeted treatment! Don’t wait to contact us if you’ve noticed symptoms!
- DenturesIf you’ve been wearing dentures for some time, you’re probably aware that while they do an adequate job of replacing the appearance of a complete smile, they often have many functional limitations. Dentures also may seem to initially restore your teeth, but underneath the surface, your natural jawbone is resorbing, or shrinking away. This bone resorption will continue (dentures accelerate this process), and your bone will become thin and flat, while the shape and size of your denture remain the same. This is why your dentures feel loose whenever you eat or talk, even if you use pastes or adhesives, and why you may often experience painful sores along your gums. Unfortunately, without relining or replacing, your dentures will never fit comfortably again.
- Dental ImplantsIf you want to replace your missing teeth permanently with a solution that looks, feels, and acts just like natural and healthy teeth, then choose dental implants ! No other replacement for teeth comes close to the long-term advantages of dental implants—artificial tooth roots and restorations built to mimic natural teeth in every way. Dental implants don’t just look like the real thing, they function like it, too. We never want anyone to feel they can’t afford dental implants and offer dental implant financing in Maineville, OH, so you can receive this life-changing solution!
- Oral Surgery
- Tooth ExtractionsIf you have a tooth too badly decayed or damaged to save, tooth extraction is often the next best step to ensure your smile remains healthy and free from infection and pain. At Riversbend Dental, our tooth extractions in Maineville, OH are comfortable procedures and won’t cause you any additional pain. In fact, as soon as the numbing agent begins working before your procedure, any pain you felt previously will subside for good! Don’t hesitate to contact our skilled dentists if you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms...
- Ridge AugmentationBone grafting refers to treatments that restore the proper density and volume of bone in your jaw. These procedures may involve restoring the natural contours of an entire jaw ridge (ridge augmentation), filling in the gap left behind after a tooth extraction (socket preservation), or replacing lost bone directly beneath the sinus cavity (sinus lift). All these treatments are designed to bring your natural bone back to a healthy level using either a sample of your own bone or donor bone material. This is a surgical procedure, so we provide custom sedation options to help you feel comfortable and free from pain. Once your mouth is fully healed, you’ll be a candidate for dental implants and can restore your smile with this life-changing solution!
- Bone GraftingKnowing why you lost a tooth or teeth is just as important as knowing the best way to replace them. If your tooth was knocked out, this is generally a simpler fix involving either a dental implant or a conventional bridge. However, if you’re suffering from multiple missing teeth and bone loss due to gum disease or poor oral health, we need to first ensure your mouth is healthy before replacing your teeth. This may include removing hopeless teeth, gum disease treatment, and bone grafting. Working together, our dentists and partnering oral surgeon will create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific oral health condition and provides you with a smile that is functional, healthy, and beautiful.

- Cosmetic DentistryDental crowns are one of our more popular cosmetic dentistry treatments, which we attribute to their versatility. Crowns can effectively restore imperfections of teeth, but we also use them to protect teeth after a root canal and to replace a tooth by attaching it to a dental implant. But in most instances, dental crowns are the go-to restoration for teeth that are cracked, broken, or otherwise cosmetically damaged.
