Intervention
In an effort to increase the longevity of your teeth, interventive services may be recommended. Conservative nonsurgical approaches are utilized for most teeth. However surgical therapy may be indicated if other options are deemed inadequate in an effort to help you retain your teeth.
Cosmetic Periodontics
Our office is at the forefront in addressing concerns that you may have about your smile. Dr. Engert has lectured frequently on enhancing esthetics. Just some of the improvements which can be discussed include; management of short or long teeth, discoloration and creating a natural appearance when replacing missing teeth.
Comfort and Safety
Many people feel anxious about a visit to the dentist. It is our goal to make your visit as comfortable as possible. We will explain and review what we are doing at every visit. Our office has modern equipment – including medications and stereo headphones – to help you feel at ease. All instruments are heat sterilized or disposable. We undergo weekly testing to assure the integrity of our sterilization system.
