- Fluoride Treatment

- FillingsGold fillings, also called inlays or onlays, are made of an alloy of gold, copper, and other metals. This type of dental filling is usually considered the most durable, lasting 20 years or more. Gold fillings also require more than one office visit to place because they require impressions manufactured at a dental laboratory.
- Resin CompositeComposite resins, or tooth-colored fillings, provide good durability and resistance to fractures in small to midsize fillings that need to withstand moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing. They can be used on either front or back teeth. They are a good choice for people who prefer their fillings to look more natural.
- VeneersOur Great Expressions dentists understand just how personal this experience is for you, and they have extensive training in the field of cosmetic dentistry to help you look your best in a comfortable environment. From surface or simple solutions (such as teeth whitening, veneers, bridges, and crowns) to more complex procedures (enamel shaping, fillings, gum reshaping, and total smile makeovers) our experts will give you the smile that will help you shine.
- CrownsDental emergencies can be daunting and nerve-racking — whether it’s a cracked tooth, loose crown, or a knocked-out tooth. Not all dental emergencies are equally urgent, though. Some require immediate treatment, while others can wait. It’s important that you understand the differences if something happens on the weekend or after normal dental office hours.
- BridgesA dental implant is a metal post that functions as a replacement tooth root. Once your dentist places the implant in the bone of the jaw, new bone forms around the implant to firmly hold it in place. Implants can also support dental restorations like crowns and bridges, just like regular teeth. They can even support full or partial dentures and give them more stability in the mouth.
- Dental Bonding
- Root Canal TreatmentRoot canal treatment is necessary when the pulp (soft tissue inside your teeth containing blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue) becomes inflamed or diseased. Root canals are a relatively simple procedure that cause little to no discomfort, and they require only one to three visits to the dentist’s office. Great Expressions dentists use the latest techniques and technology during root canal treatment to ensure that your experience is as painless as possible, with continuing education to keep you informed.
- ApicoectomyYour dentist or endodontist (a dentist who specializes in treating the insides of teeth) will remove the diseased pulp, and then the pulp chamber and root canal(s) of the tooth are cleaned and sealed. If the infected pulp is not removed, pain and swelling can result, and you may need an apicoectomy. In cases where the tooth experiences continuing issues and healing does occur, your tooth may have to be removed.
- Deep CleaningPeriodontal disease (commonly referred to as gum disease) is a bacterial infection of the gums and bone that, if not treated, can cause you to lose your teeth. For periodontal disease treatment, we have many dedicated periodontal doctors (or periodontists) who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease and other conditions. The most common periodontal services consist of scaling and root planing (“deep cleaning”), crown lengthening, and dental implants.
- DenturesWhether your dental care is for your family, a new smile for your next interview, braces for your future, or dentures to eat your favorite food, financing your dental care at Great Expressions Dental Centers is as easy as smiling.
- Dental ImplantsDentists place implants as anchors for artificial teeth. You would choose to have one placed if you had a tooth removed and wanted it replaced. When you want to have an artificial tooth replace a missing one, ask your dentist about dental implants. Gum disease, poor dental hygiene, and nicotine may affect your ability to be a candidate for dental implants.
- Oral SurgeryWe also have dedicated oral and maxillofacial surgeons who specialize in the treatment of oral and maxillofacial conditions. Our oral surgery dentists can provide oral and maxillofacial treatment plans at many of our Great Expressions Dental Centers. We provide access anytime, anywhere you need, to get you back to living a healthy lifestyle, and looking and feeling like yourself again.
- Maxillofacial SurgeryOral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS or OMFS) is a form of dentistry that treats a wide spectrum of diseases, injuries, and defects around the head, neck, face, and jaw. OMS/OMFS specializes in treating many diseases, injuries, and defects in the head, neck, face, jaws, and the hard and soft tissues of the oral (mouth) and maxillofacial (jaw and face) region. It is an internationally recognized surgical specialty. In some countries around the world — including the United States, India, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Sweden, and Israel — it is a recognized specialty of dentistry.
- Tooth ExtractionsOur pedodontists at Great Expressions; specialize in the dental development of primary teeth and permanent teeth, and as they get older, wisdom teeth extractions and braces.
