Dental Examination
HOW IT WORKS: An Existing Patient refers a friend or family member to our office, and when the New Patient referral completes their New Patient Exam (Comprehensive Exam, Full Mouth Series X-Rays, Intra-Oral Images), BOTH will receive a $50 credit in each of their accounts to be used for future treatment!
X-rays
Digital x-rays and intraoral cameras are some of the most significant advancements in modern dentistry. Digital x-rays are safer and more accurate than traditional dental x-rays. They are convenient and quicker and are able to be viewed on a computer instantly. Intraoral cameras are also used to diagnose dental problems and are very important in patient education. Modern dental imaging technology allows us to show you clear views of you dental conditions and provide you with the dental treatment that you deserve.
Oral Cancer Screening
Our Routine Wellness Visits are extremely important in preventing future dental problems. At these visits, patients typically receive an exam by the dentist, a cleaning, diagnostic X-Rays, oral hygiene instructions, fluoride application, and an oral cancer screening.

Teeth Cleaning
Fluoride Treatment
Dental Sealants
Sealants are a preventive treatment that protects the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars from tooth decay or cavities. These teeth often have deep grooves that are difficult to clean and highly susceptible to cavities due to the plaque and bacteria in these areas. Tooth colored sealants are painted on the teeth to make the grooves more shallow, and this protects the enamel from plaque and acid. This is a simple, non-invasive, pain-free procedure and is especially beneficial for children.

Fillings
Veneers
Crowns and veneers are often used to cover or reshape broken teeth, teeth with cracks or fracture lines, or severely worn teeth, while bridges are used to replace missing teeth. Bridges are permanently cemented into place and offer a more cosmetic and natural feeling treatment option than removable partials.
Crowns
Cosmetic dental treatment can consist of various treatments such as porcelain veneers, crowns, or teeth whitening. There are even ways to fix a “gummy smile”. If you aren’t sure where to start or are interested in seeing your options and possibilities, set up an appointment to consult with your dentist. We love working with patients to achieve the smile of your dreams.
Bridges
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry serves to remedy the effects of decayed, damaged, cracked, chipped, worn, or unsightly teeth. There are many cases in which a tooth requires a filling, such as cavities, damage, wear, accidents, chipped or broken teeth. Composite restorations are mercury-free, white tooth-colored fillings that are bonded to teeth to replace the missing tooth structure. These restorations look and feel natural and match the shade of your teeth. These fillings can be placed by appointment or the same day you’re in for your cleaning!

Root Canal Treatment
Root canal therapy is a common way of saving a natural tooth that has been damaged from infection or disease, fractures, trauma, deep cavities, or any other issue that may cause inflammation to the pulp tissue or nerve of the tooth. By removing the damaged nerve and pulp tissue inside of a tooth, we can relieve pain and make the tooth healthy again.

Deep Cleaning

Dentures
Full dentures and partial dentures are prosthetic devices that serve as false teeth. They can be taken in and out of the mouth. Full dentures replace all of the teeth, and partials only replace some teeth.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are a safe, reliable, well-proven solution for permanently replacing one or more missing teeth. They are also a great alternative for loose or ill-fitting dentures. Implants are the longest lasting tooth replacement solution in dentistry today.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions

Orthodontics
We provide routine cleanings (or prophylaxis) as well as deep cleanings (Scaling and Root Planing). For maintenance of clean and healthy teeth, we recommend cleanings at least every 6 months. Maintenance may be required sooner for those patients with a history of periodontal disease or who are currently in orthodontics.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Invisalign or Clear Correct Clear Aligners are ways to successfully complete mild to moderate orthodontic treatment without the use of traditional metal brackets and wires.

Teeth Whitening
Are you looking to improve the color of your smile? Whitening is a great way to brighten faded or discolored natural teeth. Teeth whitening is easy, cost-effective, and convenient.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Dr. Hanahan is passionate about overall health and is constantly learning through Continuing Education. She takes the time to help her patients feel comfortable in the dental chair, and works together with them to achieve a healthy and beautiful smile. She loves the variety her job brings, especially enjoying cosmetic dentistry.
