Comfortable Care

Preventive Services

Keeping your teeth and mouth healthy is really pretty simple: just do your best every day to keep it clean. Typically, that means brushing after meals, carefully flossing at least once a day, and getting a professional check-up/cleaning every six months. And as simple as these steps sound, we still take the time to work individually with each patient to show them where and how they might improve their home hygiene. We provide all kinds of practical tips…like how to evaluate and cure bad breath! Our amazing halimeter analyzes odor-causing elements in your mouth; if it registers a high concern level, we'll provide a revolutionary breath kit that your family and friends will thank you for years to come.

Our preventive services include:

• Hygiene & Cleaning
• Regular Check-Ups
• Dental Sealants
• Personalized Patient Education
• Nightguards to protect against Bruxism & TMJ
• Athletic Mouthguards
• Rotodent® Toothbrushes
• Comprehensive Breath Analysis & Treatment

Restorative Services

There's certainly no question that age, stress, accidents, and just life itself can take a toll on your teeth. But with today's advanced technology and materials, together with our specialized training, we can restore and rebuild beautiful smiles…often in just one or two simple appointments. In many cases, we can apply the new BIOLASE technology, which allows us to gently and precisely perform work on both soft and hard tissues without drills, shots, bleeding, or discomfort. The laser even sterilizes as it works.

As an additional benefit to our patients, Dr. Stenvall has background training in anesthesiology and is certified to perform oral sedation to reduce the concern that often surrounds complex restorative procedures. What's more, we go that 'extra mile': Dr. Stenvall follows up with all major procedures by calling our patients at home to check on their progress.

Our restorative services include the following:

• Tooth-Colored Fillings
• Bonding
• All-Porcelain Crowns
• Porcelain Veneers
• Bridges
• Full & Partial Dentures
• Root Canals
• All Aspects of Oral Surgery
• Dental Implant Restorations

Gum Care Services

Gum disease is one of the most common and damaging oral health conditions you can have. Unfortunately, most of the symptoms are silent until it's progressed quite far…and that's why we urge our patients to maintain regular professional check-ups. We know how to spot and arrest gum disease in its earliest stages; and with our BIOLASE technology we provide fast, effective, and comfortable treatment of the disease if it's gotten out of hand before you see us.

Our gum care services include the following:

• Charting and Diagnostic Services
• In Office Therapy: Non-Surgical Therapies & BIOLASE Technology

Cosmetic Services

Few people give a lot of thought to changing or improving the look of their smiles. Maybe that's because we all just get used to having the teeth that we have. But with today's technology and advanced materials, it's amazingly simple to change darkened or discolored teeth into a light, healthy smile; bond and shape chipped, uneven teeth into a more pleasing, balanced smile, or even straighten slightly crooked teeth…without braces! And for those who venture to make these types of changes, they're amazed at the positive impact of not only their new look…but their entire outlook!

Just ask us about how we could make your smile really 'smile' for you:

• Tooth-Colored Fillings
• Whitening
• Bonding
• Porcelain Veneers
• All-Porcelain Crowns, Onlays, and Inlays
• Full Mouth Recontouring
• Snap On Smile

New Product Highlight: Satelec Electronic Analgesia System

Performing excellent, in-depth hygiene is always a challenge: intense cleaning and scaling can be tough to endure even though you know it's good for you! But now we've added a new bit of technology to our practice that has our hygiene patients smiling all the way through their appointments. It's a simple hand-held electronic analgesia system connected to the hygienist's ultrasonic scaler, allowing you to manage your level of sensation throughout the procedure. How? As the hygienist cleans your teeth, you simply adjust the amount of power according to your own sensitivity threshold, and the device responds by reducing the excitability of your nerve fibers to eliminate pain at that level. Just ask Dr. Stenvall for more details!
