Modern dentistry offers a
diversity of treatments to improve and maintain your dental health. As
a dentist who is highly knowledgeable in preventive, cosmetic and restorative
services, Dr. Weyandt has thoroughly researched these treatments and
selected the ones that she feels are in the best interests of her patient’s
dental health. These are listed below. If you are looking for a particular
treatment, ask us about it during your appointment or call us during
office hours for more information.
Preventive Care Services
Preventive care services are the most important services we provide.
Preventive care begins with a complete series of x-rays and a comprehensive
exam, including a complete periodontal evaluation and oral cancer
screening. The periodontal evaluation will determine what type of
cleaning is needed based on the health of your gums. Healthy gums
are the foundation of achieving optimal oral health. Other preventive
services include:
Restorative Services
Few things last forever. Teeth, and even older dental work, go through
a lot of wear and tear, yet few people realize that they need help
to restore and maintain their mouth. Dr. Weyandt is exceptionally
skilled in restorative dentistry. She can evaluate your older dental
work and let you know if any of your restorations are failing. When
necessary, she can advise you on updating older, metal fillings with
natural looking composite fillings, repairing broken teeth or replacing
missing teeth with dental implants. She and her staff are also skilled
with these restorative services:
Periodontal Disease
If you are over 35, you may be one of the three out of four people
who have some form of periodontal
disease, or gum infection. Caused
by bacteria and debris in the gum area that was not removed by proper
and regular brushing and flossing, this condition may be painless,
but can cause permanent tooth loss. Worse, gum disease has been linked
to more serious conditions, such as heart disease. That’s why
we take periodontal disease seriously and offer the following services
to reverse the effects and protect your teeth:
- Charting and Diagnostic Services
- Arestin Antibiotic Therapy
- In Office Therapy such as Scaling and Root Planning
Cosmetic Services
Whenever we help someone enhance their smile, we are always amazed
by how their new appearance changes their personality. A beautiful,
healthy looking smile is a real self-esteem builder and Dr. Weyandt
can advise you on the best treatment to achieve that result. If you’re
interested in straightening your teeth without braces, she can prescribe
porcelain veneers or Invisalign. For whiter teeth, she may recommend
the Zoom!™ In-Office Whitening System. Whatever look you want
to achieve, we offer the following cosmetic services:
Patient Comfort and Technology
Nearly one in four people are afraid to visit the dentist, which concerns
us. That’s why we want you to be as comfortable as possible
when you enter our office. We work quickly and efficiently using
the latest dental technology. We also offer a variety of comfort
amenities to help take your mind off your visit. If going to the
dentist makes you nervous, talk to us and we’re sure to offer
any of the following services:
