Dental Services

Are you unhappy with your metal fillings? We now offer tooth-colored alternatives that are completely safe and that blend perfectly with your natural teeth. For many years, silver (amalgam) fillings were the gold standard for reliability and longevity. However, with new developments in dental materials, we are able to provide realistic-looking fillings that contain no metal or mercury. In this photo, two posterior silver fillings have been replaced with bonded composite restorations.

 You want to be confident that your Anchorage dentist can come through for all of your dental needs. 

As a general rule, you should plan to visit your dentist every six months for routine cleaning. Over time your teeth can accumulate bacteria, tartar, and plaque. If you go long periods without routine cleaning, the bone around your teeth may be permanently damaged leading to early teeth loss. Our hygienists are experienced in helping patients of all ages keep their mouths healthy. Once we get your mouth to a healthier state, you will be able to get away with minimum maintenance to achieve maximum dental health.

Cavities, Fillings, and Other Dental Problems

Cavities are caused by bacteria that accumulate on your teeth. Acids produced by bacteria slowly break down the enamel, which is the thin material on the outside of the tooth. As the bacteria go deeper into the tooth you may experience sensitivity to cold or sweets. We recommend that you come in for at least yearly exams so that our experienced dentists can diagnose cavities while they are still small. Once a cavity gets past the outside of the tooth, it cannot be reversed and will continue destroying the inside of the tooth, possibly damaging the nerve as well. During your exam, feel free to ask us about any other procedures we regularly perform, including veneers, dental implants, and IV sedation.
