Elisa B. Nelson, DDS, P.C.

Dental Examination
Regular dental exams, professional cleanings, and good home care practices are essential to detecting and strategically managing periodontitis.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
Next, we will perform a comprehensive oral exam that includes an oral cancer screening, a periodontal evaluation, we will chart all existing dental work you have and take any xrays that are needed. We will then do a 3D scan of your teeth with our ITero digital scanner. If no signs of periodontal disease are present, you will have a routine dental cleaning.

Teeth Cleaning
And of course, regular dental visits prove vital in fixing and preventing decay and gum disease as you keep up your daily home teeth cleaning habits. With a proactive approach, together we can prevent minor issues from becoming major procedures.
Fluoride Treatment
Topical fluoride treatments help keep your child’s teeth cavity-free between visits by strengthening the enamel. Depending on your child’s age, the fluoride may be brushed onto your child’s teeth or put into a foam tray and allowed to sit on their teeth. For younger children, a fluoride varnish is brushed onto the teeth. Fluoride varnish hardens when it comes in contact with saliva, forming a hard film that is brushed off later that evening.
Dental Sealants
Sealants help prevent decay by protecting the surface of the teeth, especially the back teeth where brushing can be more difficult for children. They are made of a clear, liquid resin that hardens when a special light is shined on it. This creates a smooth, hard surface that prevents food from settling in the grooves of your child’s back teeth.

Fillings
Cavities and small fractures can cause much larger issues if left untreated. In the past, metal restorations called amalgam fillings (or silver fillings) served a need but left many teeth discolored and strained from the wedging effect of the metal. Today, tooth-colored composite resins blend into the tooth structure and are chemically bonded to the tooth providing a strong, permanent restoration.
Resin Composite
Fillings are placed in the tooth following decay removal to preserve natural tooth structure. Nowadays most fillings are made of a composite resin that is matched to your child’s natural tooth color. In some rare instances amalgam (silver) fillings may be used.
Veneers
Veneers are the ultimate combination of dental art and science, handcrafted and customized to fit your smile. These paper-thin pieces of porcelain bond to the outside of your natural teeth. But just because they’re thin, don't be fooled. Veneers are highly versatile and can replicate all the complex nuances of a natural tooth.
Crowns
If your child needs restorative treatment in the form of a filling or crown, Dr. Elisa B. Nelson and her team will create a custom treatment plan for your child and review all options with you before treatment begins. We believe a conservative approach to children’s dentistry is usually the best course of action.
Bridges
Whenever you drive across a bridge, you're being supported by the same principles that support a dental bridge. Crowned teeth on either side of a space are called abutments. They support an artificial tooth, called a pontic. While a bridge lasts for many years, sometimes the strain of supporting one or more missing teeth can cause the abutments themselves to weaken and may lead to more missing teeth.
Dental Bonding
Restorative Dentistry
We know it's not always easy for you to sort through the complicated possibilities. Dr. Nelson’s background in restorative dentistry allows her to develop solutions for every situation.

Root Canal Treatment
While many patients are concerned about root canals, modern dentistry often makes this procedure quick and simple. Infected teeth in danger of extraction can be disinfected and filled with a sealer, offering a safe, effective solution for a problematic situation.

Deep Cleaning

Dentures
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, affects about 30% of the adult population and is the number one cause of tooth loss in adults. Many denture cases begin because of this chronic condition. While not curable, with regular professional hygiene appointments and consistent home care, it is controllable.

Dental Implants
In many cases, dental implants offer a better alternative, eliminating most of the load-bearing strain you see in traditional bridge abutments. When carefully placed in the bone, an implant mimics the root of a tooth. They bear the load that the natural teeth used to hold, sparing the neighboring teeth from excessive forces. In some cases, two implants may be used to build a bridge.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions
An extraction can make both children and parents anxious, but they are a common procedure in most pediatric dental offices. Sometimes a child’s tooth has too much decay to restore, or they need a tooth or teeth removed to make room for orthodontic treatment.
Bone Grafting
The bone around your teeth is special and doesn't regenerate when it's lost. Your teeth rely on this bony foundation to remain stable and functional. Sometimes we can repair these defects by adding bone grafting materials.

Orthodontics
A variety of tooth and jaw issues can be resolved through orthodontics. Dr. Elisa B. Nelson may point out that your child's baby teeth appear crowded or the relationship between the upper and lower teeth isn’t ideal. While treatment doesn’t usually start this young, it may help you prepare for the possibility of future corrective care. As permanent teeth start to appear, usually around age 6, Dr. Elisa B. Nelson will monitor the situation and help you decide if early orthodontic treatment is right for your child.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Invisalign makes it possible to straighten your teeth with thin invisible trays. Dr. Nelson’s experience and training puts a stunning smile within reach. Dr. Nelson is an active member of the American Academy of Clear Aligners and she has had extensive training on clear aligner therapy.
Braces
Although many orthodontic wearers are teenagers, braces play a role in some children's earlier years. Since permanent teeth are typically larger than baby teeth, a device called a palatal expander may be used to create more room. This allows adult teeth to move into place correctly, helping avoid more extensive treatment later on.

Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening removes years of dingy stains from your teeth. Coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and chocolate can dull white enamel surfaces. Simple and safe, most patients don't realize how discolored their teeth are until they see a new smile emerge.
Cosmetic Dentistry
At Elisa B. Nelson Family & Cosmetic Dentistry we provide quality comprehensive oral healthcare for your whole family. Our patients include families of all ages from young children to grandparents and great-grandparents. We build lifelong relationships at our dental office for a lifetime of wellness! Most of our new patients are referred to our office by our current patients. We consider this to be the highest compliment our patients can give us. We are happily accepting new patients who value their health as much as we do. We provide preventative, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry for patients of all ages. With our patient-centered approach to dentistry, our goal is to educate patients with all necessary information to make an informed decision with Dr. Nelson on their dental needs.
