Dental Examination
When’s the last time you had your teeth professionally cleaned at a dentist’s office? There are several reasons you’ll benefit from routine dental exams. First, your teeth will be cleaned, polished and brightened. Next, bad breath will be reduced. Also, cavities and tooth loss will be prevented. Finally, your overall health will be boosted.
X-rays
Use a mirror and take a look inside your mouth. You can only see what your eyes can see. You and your dentist can’t easily see what’s underneath gums and teeth, down to “the roots.” Thankfully, though, dental X-rays make it possible for a dentist to see what’s truly going on “down there” beneath the surface. After all, some oral diseases aren’t visible to the naked eye. X-rays tell us a lot about oral health, and potential problems. With early detection, a dentist can give you treatment before problems get ugly.
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer screening - Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, cheek tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.

Teeth Cleaning
Brushing and flossing are of paramount importance to oral hygiene. Though bi-annual professional dental cleanings remove plaque, tartar and debris, excellent home care methods are equally valuable. Proper brushing and flossing can enhance the health of the mouth, make the smile sparkle and prevent serious diseases.
Fluoride Treatment
Although most people receive fluoride from food and water, sometimes it is not enough to help prevent decay. Your dentist or dental hygienist may recommend the use of home and/or professional fluoride treatments for the following reasons...
Dental Sealants
A sealant is a thin, plastic coating applied to the chewing surface of molars, premolars and any deep grooves (called pits and fissures) of teeth. More than 75% of dental decay begins in these deep grooves. Teeth with these conditions are hard to clean and are very susceptible to decay. A sealant protects the tooth by sealing deep grooves, creating a smooth, easy to clean surface.

Fillings
There are many types of filling materials available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. You and your dentist can discuss the best options for restoring your teeth. Composite fillings, along with silver amalgam fillings, are the most widely used today. Because composite fillings are tooth colored, they can be closely matched to the color of existing teeth, and are more aesthetically suited for use in front teeth or the more visible areas of the teeth.
Veneers
Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made (for shape and color) by a professional dental laboratory. They are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and attractive smile.
Crowns
Often, a damaged tooth can be patched together with a filling, a crown or some other treatment. However, if there is too much damage and decay, extraction may be the only option left. Here are examples of reasons why you may need a tooth extracted...
Bridges
Dental bridges are highly durable and will last many years, however they may need replacement or need to be re-cemented due to normal wear.
Dental Bonding
Like many dental treatments, how your chipped tooth is repaired is dependent on how severe the break or crack is. If it’s something small, we may be able to fix it with dental bonding, a veneer or a filling; more severe ones may require a dental crown or a cap, which are made from an array of materials, including metal, ceramic, resin or porcelain. The technologies have improved drastically over the years, and your tooth will look as natural as ever.
Restorative Dentistry

Root Canal Treatment
Wisdom teeth removal, extractions and root canals are examples of procedures where you may want to consider the benefits of sedation dentistry. However, it’s important to note that you need to be driven home by another licensed driver after your appointment.

Periodontal Surgery
If the pockets do not heal after scaling and root planing, periodontal surgery may be needed to reduce pocket depths, making teeth easier to clean. Your dentist may also recommend that you see a Periodontist (specialist of the gums and supporting bone).
Deep Cleaning
The dentist is able to conduct deep cleaning treatments such as scaling and root planing to remove hardened calculus (tartar) deposits from the gum pockets. An antibiotic may be prescribed to ensure that the bacterium is completely destroyed and the periodontal infection does not spread. In most cases, periodontal disease can be prevented with regular cleanings and proper home care.

Dentures
Do you have missing teeth? Then you might want dentures. A denture is a removable dental appliance replacement for missing teeth and the surrounding tissue. Made to resemble natural teeth, dentures are common-- you probably know people who wear them.

Dental Implants
Do you have missing teeth? You can have them replaced with dental implants. They’re strong, durable and stable, lasting many years and here’s how they work: implants are essentially artificial roots (and teeth) that get surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone at Genesee Dental.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Flap Surgery
Pocket elimination surgery – Pocket elimination surgery (also known as flap surgery) is a surgical treatment which can be performed to reduce the pocket size between the teeth and gums. Surgery on the jawbone is another option which serves to eliminate indentations in the bone which foster the colonization of bacteria.
Tooth Extractions
Just hearing the words “tooth extraction” is enough to make you shiver. However, in some cases tooth extraction is the best course of action, and thanks to modern medicine, the procedure can be done without causing too much discomfort. In fact, there are two types of procedures, simple and surgical extractions, and regardless of which one you need, your dentist will make sure you’re as comfortable as can be before having it removed.
Bone Grafting
Tissue & bone grafting – Where a considerable amount of bone or gum tissue has been destroyed, the dentist may elect to graft new tissue by inserting a membrane to stimulate tissue growth.

Orthodontics
Braces
Genesee Dental offers orthodontic services to customers of all ages. We work closely with our patients to help them select the right braces to straighten their teeth. Regardless of your needs, we’re to help you obtain the glowing smile you’ve always dreamed of.

Teeth Whitening
We also can lighten or brighten the color of your teeth. From teeth whitening to veneers, Genesee Dental knows how to improve the look of your teeth and your smile. The benefits of cosmetic dentistry? You’ll be able to talk, eat and smile better, and this, in turn, will improve your self-confidence.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Your smile says a lot about you, and you want to make strong first impressions with the people you meet. Cosmetic dentistry can change the look of your smile for the better-- correcting/improving bites, filling in spaces between teeth, and changing the size, shape and alignment of problem teeth, too!
