So at High Plains Periodontics and Implants Dentistry, we do not do traditional general dentistry such as fillings, crowns, root canals. Our main objective here is reducing inflammation and making sure that the foundation is proper. Occasionally sometimes a tooth has so much damage, that there’s not enough tooth structure. And so we can do like a crown lengthening procedure, give that dentist a little bit more of tooth structure so that they can save the tooth and we can place a crown on there. Other times there is bone loss associated and the tooth have moved and so many times we’ll go in there, again, fix the gum disease and allow an orthodontist to move those teeth back into the proper position. And sometimes we can’t fix all the teeth and we lose them. And if we need to think about restoring or replacing these teeth, then a dental implant is generally a great option for that. Visit us here at High Plains Perio and let us help your general dentist give you the absolute best.
Reverse Years of Damage With Restorative Dental Treatments
Your smile does wonderful things for you. It’s usually what people notice first about you, and it’s often part of the lasting impression you leave with others. So it’s important to feel good about how your smile looks and feels. When you need to reconstruct your smile to reverse damage, you need the help of an experienced dental team.
Whether you’ve been referred to us by your dentist or you simply require the advanced skills of a specialist to help restore your entire smile, you’ll receive personalized treatment according to your smile needs. After your initial examination, we may recommend treatments such as:
- Periodontal Services – Your gums keep your teeth in place. If they are infected by disease, you need to get your gum health back on track. We can perform a simple deep cleaning procedure or more advanced treatments that completely remove infected gum tissue.
- Dental Implants – Replace missing teeth with dental implants that act as artificial tooth roots for a stronger bite. We offer a wide range of implant options depending on what’s best for your smile. We can also help boost your bone health for implants with a grafting procedure.
- Extractions – Your dentist may need to extract diseased teeth that harm your oral health or remove several teeth to get your smile ready for braces.
- Orthodontics – Our unique services may make it quicker to finish your orthodontic treatment. We can also uncover underdeveloped impacted teeth, such as your canines, for a more complete bite.
- Dentures – Secure your dentures with implants instead of having to struggle with slippery adhesive.
