When choosing a dental practice, the office should have professionals skilled in everything from general cleanings to dental implants, cosmetic dentistry and periodontal treatment. Whether you are visiting Seaview Dental in Eatontown or Century Dental in Jackson, you can count on just that. Our dental practices also have varying hours including nights and weekends to support your busy schedule.
Consider our expertise in the following areas:
Dental Exam, X-Rays, And Cleaning
Most people should have a regular dental check-up every 6 months. For those with oral health concerns, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits because dental issues can arise quickly and are best caught early. At your dental check-up, your team will check for signs of oral cancer, detect any early signs of gum disease, and perform digital x-rays if needed. They will give your teeth a thorough cleaning, flossing, and check for cavities or other concerns. This is a great time to ask your dentist about any questions you have about your oral health.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry improves the appearance of your teeth. We offer a wide range of cosmetic dental procedures to bring you confidence in your smile, including:
- Professional Teeth Whitening: You can buy over the counter teeth whitening products, but the best way to make a significant change to the shade of your teeth is at the dentist’s office. At any of our New Jersey locations, we offer the renowned Boost Whitening System, the most powerful teeth bleaching option available.
- Invisalign®: For those looking to straighten their teeth without wearing traditional metal braces, we can help. Our dental practices offer the Invisalign® teeth straightening system. This system uses clear plastic trays to straighten your teeth over a period of time. You can remove these trays to eat and for special occasions.
- Metal Crown And Filling Replacement: Those who have had metal crowns or fillings in the past are often surprised to learn that these are no longer the norm. If you have dark-colored fillings or gold crowns, we can remove these and replace them with discreet tooth-colored porcelain. This helps to make dental work in your teeth less noticeable and allows you to laugh and smile with confidence.
- Bonding And Veneers: Dental bonding and veneers can both improve the appearance of your teeth. Veneers involve removing a thin layer of enamel from your tooth and replacing it with porcelain. This is a multi-appointment procedure and will generally last for 15 years or longer with proper care. Veneers are extremely lifelike and can cover cracks, chips, deep stains, and large gaps. Bonding creates a similar end product but does not require removing any parts of the tooth. Keep in mind that dental bonding needs to be repaired every three to five years.
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry is dedicated to fixing problematic teeth and improving the actual health of the teeth and gums. At our dental offices, we are proud to excel in restorative dentistry and, in particular, and periodontal treatment. Our most popular restorative dental procedures:
- Crowns
- Fillings
- Sealants
- Root Canal Therapy
We like to be conservative with our dentistry and will always try to save a tooth if possible. Sometimes this is as simple as a dental sealant to prevent decay on your teeth. Other times, it may require a root canal to remove an infection from within the tooth in an attempt to prevent extraction.
Replacing Lost Teeth
At our dental offices, we offer dental bridges, partial and full dentures, as well as dental implants. Dental implants are the most permanent of these options and will look and function like normal teeth. With proper care, implants will last a lifetime and are a good option for most people.
Periodontal Treatment
In short, periodontal disease is an advanced form of gum disease wherein the patient must be treated by professionals or risk serious health complications as infections in your gums can quickly spread to other parts of your body. While periodontal treatment is often a stressful endeavor with a lot of apprehension by patients, it is necessary once the disease takes hold, and the sooner you seek treatment, the more likely you are to save your teeth.
Do You Need Dental Treatment?
Whether you have perfect, shiny white teeth or advanced periodontal disease, the answer to the above question should be a resounding “yes!” Everybody needs dental treatment from time to time. The very first service we mentioned is a simple dental check-up. Regular checkups are where we can detect early signs of dental problems before you find yourself in need of expensive procedures.
