Advanced Treatment Options
Come for your routine cleaning and examination. Stay for the comprehensive general dental treatments:
The tell-tale signs of tooth decay—pain or sensitivity around the affected area—alerts you and your dentist to a cavity, a cracked tooth, or over-worn teeth. To diagnose a cavity, we’ll perform a series of tests, including (but not limited to):
Visual assessment
Probing/palpation
X-rays
These tests will lead to a diagnosis and treatment plan. For very small cavities, we may simply recommend a wait-and-see approach. If the cavity is large and painful or located in a hard-to-reach area, a filling is often recommended.
Treating a cavity with a filling involves removing decayed tooth structure, followed by a cavity filling that “fills” the hole in your teeth, protecting your tooth from further decay.
1. Your dentist will numb the area with local anesthesia. Once past this quick injection, you won’t feel a thing!
2. We’ll clean out the tooth cavity or old filling, removing all decayed tooth structure
3. The dental filling is then designed and inserted into the cavity, ready to protect your tooth from future decay.
Repair and strengthen damaged teeth
A ceramic dental crown protects weak, damaged teeth so they can continue functioning (and shining brightly) for years to come. There are a few situations where our dentists might recommend a dental crown:
Restore badly worn teeth
Broken teeth
Repair a large cavity
Restore your tooth after a root canal
The final step of an implant
At Exodont, our team will help minimize your risk of tooth decay, disease, and damage. But life happens, and sometimes a root canal just can’t be avoided.
When root canal treatment is the best recommendation for you, we ensure your visit is comfortable and stress-free. Root canal therapy is a safe, simple, and effective way to stop decay and infection and save your tooth from extraction.
Gum disease (also known as periodontal disease) is a bacterial infection of the gums that, if left untreated, can damage the bone that support your teeth.
Whether you’re suffering from the early signs of gingivitis or have severe damage and deterioration from years of gum disease, our expert team can help

A great alternative to implants
A professional diagnosis is always needed to determine if dentures are the best option for your dental health and future. If you’re interested in learning more about available tooth replacement options,
What are my options?
Partial dentures fit between your remaining natural teeth. This type of denture typically replaces one or a few missing teeth.
Full dentures replace an entire upper or lower set of teeth. This type of denture is typically removable.
This hybrid approach to dentures works by placing 4, 6, or 8 implants and securing a denture on top.
