Not Sure Where to Start?
Common Reasons Patients Come to Us
A tooth is missing or needs to come out. Start with dental implants. If the tooth is still in place, ask about grafting the socket at the time of extraction — it keeps your options open and is far simpler than rebuilding the ridge later.
Your dentist found deep pockets or bone loss. Start with gingivitis and periodontitis to understand which stage you have, then non-surgical treatment, which is where treatment begins.
Your gums have receded or teeth look longer. See gum grafting, including the minimally invasive Pinhole technique.
Your smile shows a lot of gum. See crown lengthening.
You were told there is not enough bone for an implant. See bone grafting and, for upper back teeth, sinus augmentation. "Not enough bone" is usually a starting point rather than a verdict.
Crowns or fillings keep breaking. See occlusal therapy — a bite problem is frequently the reason restorative work does not last.
Still unsure? Call (610) 722-5542 and we will point you to the right starting point.
