Dental Examination
X-rays
The next step is typically dental x-rays, which reveal any dental problems that are not easily visible. The doctor will also perform a hands-on examination to evaluate the condition of your teeth and gums.

Teeth Cleaning
What do you do when you wake up and right before you go to bed? If you said brush your teeth, then that’s great! Brushing and flossing twice a day is essential in maintaining your oral health. However, you do also need to visit your dentist for a dental cleaning at least twice a year.
Dental Sealants
Our teeth play an important role in our lives, and we need to make sure that we keep them protected. Protection from tooth decay is important and that’s where dental sealants come into play.

Fillings
Amalgam Fillings – Also called silver fillings, these are resistant to wear and highly durable. They can cause some discomfort for the patient later in life, and as such are not as commonly used
Resin Composite
Tooth-colored fillings are a necessity for most cosmetic dental procedures, as they allow us to match precisely to the rest of your teeth. Even if your teeth are stained or yellowed, composite resin acts like normal tooth enamel, and can be whitened as if it were a normal tooth! Be careful, however, as composite resin can be stained by substances like coffee, just as a normal tooth can.
Veneers
One thing to remember is that dental bonding may be more susceptible to staining or chipping than veneers or other restoration procedures. In order to maintain the appearance of your dental bonding, take extra precautions in ensuring your teeth remain clean and healthy.
Crowns
We need our teeth to eat properly, so when one is damaged it can take a toll on your day-to-day life. In order to continue to protect your teeth and overall well-being, it is important to repair damaged teeth. At our office, dental crowns are utilized to perform the following...
Bridges
When you are missing multiple teeth, what are your options? While there are numerous procedures available, some might cost more than you are willing to pay. It is important to understand your best options for restoring your smile when multiple teeth are missing. One option to consider is dental bridges.
Dental Bonding
Do you have gaps or changes in the color of your teeth? Don’t think you can easily change the appearance of your teeth? Think again. With dental bonding in Joliet, you can fill in the gaps in your teeth while also improving the appearance of your smile at the same time. Let’s take a look.

He also held a faculty position as a full-time Clinical Lecturer at the College of Dentistry, Baghdad University.

His interest in education compelled him to pursue another specialty training program, he enrolled at Saint Louis University Center for Advanced Dental Education, where he earned his Master of Science in dentistry and Certificate in Periodontics in 2016.

Root Canal Treatment
The dreaded root canal therapy. Most people dread hearing the news that they need a root canal. While root canal therapy is a common dental procedure to eliminate infections in the teeth, it continues to place a negative image in patients’ minds. However, patients can rest easy knowing our dentist offers the most comfortable, efficient experience possible when root canal therapy is needed.

Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
Gingivectomy – This type of periodontal surgery will be conducted to remove excess gum tissue that may be overgrown on the teeth. In doing so, it can provide a better area to clean the teeth.
Periodontal Surgery
If you have been diagnosed with periodontal (gum) disease, your dentist might recommend periodontal surgery. The purpose of periodontal surgery is to remove the disease to improve your oral health. Let’s look at three different types of periodontal surgery...
Deep Cleaning
Gingival Flap Surgery – If pockets are greater than 5 millimeters in depth, the procedure would be performed to reduce the periodontal pockets. Gum tissue will be cut from the teeth to conduct a thorough deep cleaning.

Dentures
Partial or full tooth loss can affect your self-confidence if not treated. It can also increase your risk of developing other systemic health and nutritional problems. Luckily, dentures can bring back your smile and make chewing and eating a normal process again.
Overdentures
Overdentures – Dr. Lombardi will try to save whatever possible from your natural teeth. Natural teeth help maintain the jawbone in good condition and provide good support for the dentures. The overdenture is designed to accommodate existing teeth. Dental implants can also be used for support.

Dental Implants
Today there are more than 100 million individuals missing at least one tooth. With so many people missing teeth, what solutions are available that will match the appearance and functionality of your natural teeth? Dental implants!

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
There are many reasons we may find ourselves in need of oral surgery. While the word surgery may bring to mind long procedures, painful recovery periods, and the need to travel for such a specialty, this is no longer the case. To make this decision even easier, we offer many oral surgery options right in Morris.
Jaw Surgery
Corrective Jaw Surgery: Sometimes our jaws just don’t align in a way that is comfortable or healthy for our teeth. Oral surgery is a trouble-free solution to this nagging issue.
Flap Surgery
Gum Surgery
The thought of gum surgery is cringeworthy, but there is a better option available: laser gum surgery. With the availability of laser gum surgery, treatment is easier and more comfortable than ever before. Laser gum surgery utilizes a dental laser to access and remove the inflamed gum tissue from around the root of the tooth. Let’s take a closer look at a few of the benefits of laser gum surgery...

Tooth Extractions
A dental extraction involves removing a tooth from its place in the jaw bone. Extractions are done in dental offices by either the dentist or a dental surgeon and are usually performed under local or general anesthesia. A dental extraction is recommended when tooth decay is severe and nothing can be done to save the tooth, or when the tooth is infected or vulnerable to infection.

Orthodontics
Without early orthodontic treatment, jaw growth and alignment can be affected. This can cause an overall decline in oral health. Patients can start orthodontics as early as age six. At this point, a child’s jaw is still developing, so malocclusion would be in its earliest stage still. Malocclusion is simply an abnormal alignment of the upper and lower teeth. To determine the best type of orthodontic treatment your dentist will assess your child’s malocclusion issues in relation to spacing or jaw alignment.
Invisalign Orthodontics
If you want a straighter smile without everyone noticing you are undergoing treatment, visit our office for Invisalign. With Invisalign, treatment is virtually undetectable so no one will even know you are receiving teeth straightening care.
