General Dentistry
Technically speaking, general dentistry includes everything described on this website. But more recently, the term “general dentistry” has come to refer to more routine or conventional work such as fillings, crowns, bridges and dentures. We take full advantage of the advances in bonding and other materials technology, and only work with the top laboratories so that our patients will always experience the best possible oral care.
Aesthetic Dentistry
Have the smile you’ve always wanted—safely, quickly, comfortably. If you’ve always been hesitant to smile in public, we can help. You should know that any aesthetic work that we do is firmly grounded in your overall dental health picture. Looks are important—but good oral health is critical. When your teeth look better, feel better, and are healthier, that’s when you’ll find you have that perfect, natural smile that lets you look . . . like a happier you.
Implants
Avoid suffering with loose, sore dentures, or other methods of replacing missing teeth. Implants, now considered the “gold standard” for replacing teeth, offer an alternative to partial dentures or bridges, and typically last more than 40 years.
The implant procedure involves inserting a small titanium pin—similar to those used in orthopedic surgery—into the bone of the upper or lower jaw. After the bone fuses to the titanium, a crown, or modified denture, is attached to it. Studies have shown that implants stop the bone loss that occurs once teeth have been lost, resulting in better overall oral health. Most importantly, you’ll quickly be able to enjoy eating and smiling again.
In most cases we can offer comprehensive implant therapy in our office. This means that we’re able to perform all aspects of the necessary work, from surgical placement to the final restoration, all in the comfort of our office.
Periodontal (Gum) Treatment
Most adults that lose their teeth don’t have to—by diagnosing problems early, assessing risks, and designing a periodontal treatment plan, we’ll help you keep your teeth and live more comfortably—and with better, fresher breath!
Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal treatments remove the infected nerves inside a tooth, eliminating pain, sensitivity, and saving the tooth from extraction. Our state-of-the-art instruments and techniques help ensure a high degree of comfort and long-term success.
Reconstructive Dentistry
If you need full-mouth restoration due to trauma, excessive wear, tooth loss, genetics, or other reasons, Dr. Lawson’s 20+ years of experience combined with his extensive training in reconstructive dentistry will ensure that you’ll be smiling again in no time. We handle most advanced cases exclusively in our office but also routinely call in our team of specialists to handle areas outside of our scope of treatment.
Be sure to ask to see our photo book next time you are in the office for even more aesthetic and reconstructive photos than are posted on our website.
