Sealants

Highly effective in preventing decay on the biting surfaces of your chewing teeth, sealants are a simple procedure in which a tooth-colored acrylic coating is painted onto the surface of the tooth. This effectively “seals” the deep grooves where decay is most likely to start.

Orthodontics

For patients, adults and children, who have crowded or crooked teeth, spaces between their teeth or misaligned teeth and jaws, orthodontic therapy can help reduce the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and trauma due to protruding teeth. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have an evaluation by seven (7) years of age. More than 25% of all orthodontic patients are adults.

Implants

A remarkable procedure, implants can replace any or all of your teeth. The implant becomes integrated with the bone and acts like a “bolt” which will ultimately support a new tooth. The advantage of implants for patients with dentures are: denture stability; increased patient comfort and confidence.

Mini Implants

Imagine this!

Visit our office in the morning, have the mini implants placed in less than two hours, then go out and enjoy your favorite lunch. Eat comfortably, have a pleasant conversation, laugh and talk with confidence. Your denture feels secure and is being held firmly in place. All of this is available at an extremely affordable price.

Crowns

A “cap”, “jacket”, or “crown” will restore a broken, heavily filled or cracked tooth to its original size and shape. This may also be recommended after root canal therapy has been completed as the tooth tends to become brittle and is more apt to fracture. Crowns can strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure and improve the appearance of your teeth.

Cosmetic Dentistry

For the smile you have always wanted, our computer-imaging system allows you to “preview” what your smile could look like. Cosmetic dentistry encompasses reshaping your teeth, bonding, natural-looking tooth-colored fillings and bleaching.

Periodontal Disease

A common problem that often is seen in the dental office is plaque accumulation around the teeth. Plaque contains bacteria that produce substances which can be harmful to the gingiva (gums). If the plaque is allowed to remain, it can become a hard coating around the teeth that is called calculus (tartar). If the calculus continues to build around the pockets of the teeth, the pockets will deepen and can result in bone loss. This is the major cause of tooth loss in adults. Since this process often is painless and shows few symptoms, patients may be unaware that there is a problem. Regular dental examinations are essential for the early diagnosis and treatment of periodontalproblems.

  • Testimonials

    As a patient of Dr. Birckhead and Dr. Powers, I have experienced exceptional dental care. I have never been this pleased with every aspect of the dental patient treatment as I have since my first visit in this office. Everyone involved from the dentist to the staff has always demonstrated personal care and professionalism in a very relaxed atmosphere. I would recommend any of my family and friends to come here for all their dental needs. It has been a pleasurable experience.
