Services & Procedures
We utilize cutting-edge technology and techniques to restore your beautiful smile and to maintain your oral health. Need to replace your missing teeth or just time for a standard dental cleaning? Read more about the types of procedures that we offer here, below:
DENTAL CLEANING
Preventive dental treatment is vital to maintain optimum oral and overall health. At Dr. Withem's office, we value patient education and the importance of maintaining oral health through preventative dental cleanings. Preventive visits assist in detecting and preventing dental cavities, periodontal disease, gingivitis, and other dental conditions. Not only do they keep your smile looking its best, but they also promote overall health by reducing the risk of infection. We encourage our patients to schedule cleanings every six months for a healthy and vibrant smile!
DENTAL EXAMS & X-RAYS
Semiannual dental exams are a vital component of maintaining healthy teeth and gums. After your dental cleaning with the dental hygienist, Dr. Withem will complete your exam to clinically and radiographically evaluate your oral health to allow for early detection of dental problems. By completing dental x-rays according to the standard of care, we will assess your teeth clinically and radiographically.
COMPOSITE FILLINGS
Composite or "tooth- colored fillings " are highly aesthetic and are used to create a natural-looking smile. We utilize advanced nanohybrid composite materials, meticulously crafted to mimic the natural tooth's look and feel. These state-of-the-art fillings blend beautifully with your existing smile and provide exceptional strength and long-lasting integrity. We no longer place amalgam fillings because they can cause cracks in the tooth structure. We can replace existing amalgam fillings and upgrade them to whiter, brighter composites for you.
ROOT CANAL THERAPY
Root canal therapy is a vital procedure designed to save an infected tooth that has been damaged due to a deep cavity, trauma, or cracks. Dr. Withem is committed to providing this essential treatment with precision and care, ensuring your oral health and comfort are our top priorities. Having attended advanced courses in endodontics and root canal therapy, you can be sure you are in good hands here.
Cosmetic Procedures
PORCELAIN CROWNS
Crowns are a fantastic way to ensure a tooth is truly protected for years after the procedure is done. A crown is essentially a porcelain cover that is fitted over the top of the existing tooth.
TEETH WHITENING
There have been many modern advances in the teeth whitening process that is much safer, easier to administer, and provides enhanced results since this service has been offered in dental offices all around the world several years ago.
DENTAL BRIDGES
Dental bridges can be an effective alternative tooth replacement option for an area between two vital teeth. It is a fixed dental prosthetic supported by crowns on either side of the missing tooth. The bridge fills the gap left by the missing teeth and restores function and aesthetics.
DENTAL VENEERS
If you're looking to enhance your smile, dental veneers may be the perfect solution. These ultra-thin, custom-made cosmetic restorations are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, improving their appearance by correcting discoloration.
DENTAL BONDING
Dental bonding can be used in acid erosion areas to cover the affected area and protect the integrity of the tooth structure. Bonding can also be a solution to repair minor chips and improve the appearance of your teeth.
DENTAL INLAYS/ONLAYS
At Dr. Withem's office, we’re proud to offer high-quality dental inlays and onlays as a conservative, long-lasting solution for patients looking to restore the health and appearance of their teeth.
Advanced Procedures
DENTAL IMPLANTS
Dental implants are becoming an increasingly popular method for replacing missing teeth. In this procedure, titanium supports are surgically placed within your jawbone and act as an anchor for naturally looking false teeth.
3D SCANNING
At our office, Dr. Withem is committed to providing you with the most advanced and comfortable dental care. That's why we're thrilled to utilize the cutting-edge 3Shape TRIOS intraoral scanner for your dental impressions. Say goodbye to messy, uncomfortable traditional molds and hello to a revolutionary digital experience!
SLEEP MEDICINE
Sleep is one of the most important things we need to be healthy and happy. For some, sleep is hard, and problems plague their nights that make them groggy and tired all the time. And, in extreme cases, can result in worsening conditions.
DENTURES
Dr. Nicholas Withem is dedicated to helping patients restore their smiles and oral function with high-quality dentures. Whether you're missing some or all of your teeth, dentures offer a durable, comfortable, and natural looking solution.
ORAL SEDATION
We understand that many patients feel anxious or uneasy about visiting the dentist. For those who experience dental anxiety, we offer oral sedation as a safe and effective way to help you relax during your dental appointments.
DENTURE
RETAINED IMPLANTS
Implant-supported dentures are an ideal choice for those seeking a more secure and long-lasting way to restore their smiles. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on top of the gums, implant-supported dentures are anchored by dental implants offering greater stability and comfort.
