Services

RiverSprings Dental offers a wide variety of services from routine dental health maintenance to cosmetic dentistry. Some of our most common services include:

  • Depending on your dental health, your visit may include any of the following diagnostic and/or preventative services:

    • X-rays

    • Assessment of periodontal (gum) tissue

    • Evaluation of existing dental restorations

    • Removal of all plaque and calculus buildup

    • Examine and screen for oral cancer

    • Fluoride application (18 years of younger)

    • Overall evaluation of teeth

  • Periodontal disease or gum disease is the single most common cause of tooth loss in adults. This inflammatory disease attacks the gums, bone and other supporting structures of the teeth. The type of treatment you require depends on how advanced your periodontal disease is. Different types of treatment may include any of the following:

    • More frequent cleaning.

    • Scaling and Root Planning:
      Scaling is the removal of calculus deposits on your teeth. Root Planning is the process of smoothing the root surfaces so the gum tissue can reattach to the tooth.

    • Tooth colored (composite) fillings are an alternative to traditional metal fillings. When restoring a tooth with a resin or tooth colored fillings, we can be conservative with the amount of tooth structure removed since the filling material is bonded to the tooth. Resin is an attractive, natural looking option for restoring decayed teeth.

  • A root canal treats tooth infection or damage by removing infected tissue, cleaning the area, and sealing it to prevent further infection. This procedure can save a tooth, relieve pain, and restore function.

  • Crowns are dental restorations that are placed over a tooth when a filling is insufficient to restore the tooth.  A bridge replaces a missing tooth or teeth. 

    Crowns and bridges can be made entirely of porcelain (tooth colored) material, metal, or a combination of both.

  • Dental veneers are a great way to gain a healthy, white smile in a relatively short period of time with minimal dental treatment. Veneers may be used to modify or enhance the color, size and shape of your teeth.

  • Tooth whitening brightens your natural teeth, removing stains from tobacco, food, coffee, tea, and red wine. We offer various whitening options to help you achieve your desired bright smile.

  • We prioritize preserving natural teeth, but when extensive decay or gum disease makes saving them impossible, extraction is necessary for our patients' health. Our office offers safe, comfortable dental extractions, from simple to surgical.

  • A dental filling is a procedure that is used to repair and restore a tooth that has been damaged by decay or injury.
