Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry

We emphasize cosmetic dentistry, an aspect of modern dentistry allowing us to conservatively restore your teeth back to their natural strength and beauty. It also allows us to enhance the appearance of your smile by closing gaps, straightening crooked teeth, lengthening worn and chipped teeth, and whitening teeth for a more youthful, clean and healthy-looking smile. Our goal is to make your teeth look natural and beautiful so you can have a confident smile.

• Tooth-Colored Restorations
• Porcelain Veneers
• Whitening - Zoom!: To whiten your teeth, we use the most advanced technology available, called Zoom! The process takes about an hour, and the results are dramatic--up to seven to nine shades whiter in less than 60 minutes. You can go on with your day right away with a whiter, brighter smile.

• Invisalign

  Invisalign - The invisible way to straighten your teeth, without braces. This is an option you may want to consider. Invisalign can give you the beautiful straight teeth you have always wanted. It works through a series of invisible, removable and comfortable aligners no one can tell you are wearing. So you can smile during treatment as well as after. Invisalign has been proven effective and Dr. Brooks is certified to treat with Invisalign.

• BreathRx Products

  BreathRx System - All of us have suffered from bad breath at one time or another. But it is estimated 40 million Americans suffer from bad breath that never goes away. The medical term for this condition is halitosis. Surprisingly, most people with halitosis are not aware of their problem breath. That is because our sense of smell has an amazing ability to adjust to odors. Unfortunately, there is no cure for 90% of oral halitosis. It requires long-term control and management of this condition. The BreathRx™ Breath Management System was developed to make long-term treatment easy, convenient and effective.
  
  Most people think bad breath is a result of what is going on in our stomachs. But that is not the whole story. The actual odor of halitosis is generated by bacteria thriving in the mouth under the gums, and in the nooks and crannies on the teeth and the surface of the tongue. Left untreated, these bacteria create volatile sulfur compounds that have a characteristic “rotten egg” smell. Most people would probably like their breath to be more pleasant than that. And this is precisely what the Breath Rx™ System is designed to do – give you pleasant smelling breath. Come in to find out more!

Preventive Dentistry and Periodontal Treatment

We believe an "ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." By keeping your regular dental hygiene appointments, you will be taking great steps to avoiding more extensive treatment later. As long as we are on top of your dental health, we can continue to provide conservative dental treatment.

• Soft Tissue Management

Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

• Atridox - Atridox (doxycycline hyclate) 10% is a major advance in the treatment of periodontal disease. It is an antibiotic gel that is placed gently into your gum pockets where bacteria thrive. Atridox then quickly hardens to a wax-like substance, slowly releasing the antibiotic to the infected area for seven days. Atridox takes just minutes for your dentist to administer, and is a comfortable treatment that does not require anesthesia. The benefits you will receive from one simple treatment can help you achieve better gum health.
• Periostat - Periostat has been shown to help stop the progression of periodontitis when used as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in a conscientiously applied program of oral hygiene and regular professional care--American Dental Association Council on Scientific Affairs. Periostat helps suppress the body's overproduction of gum and tissue-destroying enzymes. It reduces the activity of the enzymes that destroy tooth and gum tissue, and is only available by prescription from your dentist.
• Sealants - Dental sealants act as a barrier, protecting the teeth against decay-causing bacteria. The sealants are usually applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (premolars and molars) where decay occurs most often.
• Regular Checkups
• Patient Education
• Nightguards or Grinding Guards - Do you have hot/cold sensitivity on your teeth, develop headaches in the temple area, or have jaw soreness in the morning. A nightguard helps relieve these symptoms. It is a thin, transparent custom-made tray, made in the shape of your dental arch, used to promote good tooth alignment and an accurate bite relationship. This splint is worn at night between the top and bottom teeth, absorbing the force of grinding and clenching. Call Dr. Brooks to find out more.
