Preventive Care:
As a team, we are true believers that preventative care and education are the keys to optimal dental health. We focus on thorough
exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary. We also
know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease. A review of your medical
history can help us stay informed of your overall health and determine if any health factors can impact your dental health. Detecting
dental problems early can help prevent costly and time consuming procedures.
Esthetic/Cosmetic Dentistry:
We know the look of your smile is important to you. We can discuss with you several options to have the smile you’ve always wanted. Some
treatment options include: teeth whitening, veneers, lumineers, porcelain inlay and onlays, lava porcelain crowns, and invisalign orthodontics.
Restorative Treatment:
Unfortunately, teeth may become less functional due to wear, decay, trauma or extraction. We are able to treat this problem by placing
tooth colored fillings, crowns, bridges or dentures. Dr. Pourghassemi does a wonderful job of restoring your teeth so that they can perform
and function, as they should.
Children:
We welcome children in our office because we care about your child’s oral health. We know you want the best dental care for your child,
and to promote a positive experience for your child’s dental visit. Dr. Pourghassemi provides a fun, happy environment in our office so
that everyone can feel comfortable.
Endodontics:
This branch of dentistry is concerned with the morphology, physiology and pathology of the human dental pulp and periradicular tissues.
Dr. Pourghassemi can diagnose if root canal therapy is needed and can perform the necessary treatment to prevent or remove the infection.
Most often, patients associate needing root canal therapy with pain, but actually root canal treatment relieves tooth pain.
Endodontic treatment can usually be accomplished in one or two visits here in our office.
Extraction:
A dental extraction is the removal of a tooth from the mouth. Sometimes a tooth cannot be retained and an extraction is recommended due
to various reasons. Tooth decay that has destroyed enough tooth structure to prevent restoration is the most frequent indication for
extraction of teeth.
Nitrous Oxide:
Dr. Pourghassemi offers nitrous oxide to help reduce anxiety while in the dental office for those patients who are anxious. Under our
dental office setting, it is a colorless non-flammable gas, with a pleasant, slightly sweet odor and taste. It is used in surgery and
dentistry for its anesthetic and analgesic effects, where it is commonly know as “laughing gas” due to the euphoric effects of inhaling it.
Insurance Claim Submission:
We know how confusing insurance claim processing can be, that’s why we are happy to provide this service for you. After your dental treatment
is complete we will submit the dental claim on your behalf.
