  Dentures

  Tooth loss is more common than you may think, affecting approximately 178 million Americans; however, that doesn't mean you have to suffer from tooth loss and live with reduced oral function. Dentures can give you your quality of life back, allow you to eat the foods you love, and restore your ability to speak confidently. Our office is proud to offer patients options that fit their lifestyles. If you don't want traditional dentures, that's not a problem. Advancements in dental technology and implant dentistry mean you can enjoy lifelike implant-supported dentures without the need for adhesives. Our dentists have extensive training in implant dentistry to help you achieve the smile you've been dreaming of.

As a result, dental veneers can have a profound effect on your personal and professional life. Everyone deserves a smile they feel good about, and you are no exception.

  Root Canal

  Tooth pain can make you miserable. But even minor signs of infection shouldn't be ignored. Left untreated, you risk the spread of infection and the loss of the tooth or even your other teeth. This can cause other oral health issues such as bone atrophy. The sooner the issue is addressed the better. Our dentists, Dr. Chan Wilkhu and Dr. Mark Moffitt, combine experience, skill, state-of-the-art technology, and luxury amenities to address your symptoms comfortably and efficiently. In some cases, we can place porcelain crowns in as little as one appointment.

  Tooth Extraction

  For many, the idea of experiencing further dental pain can keep them from seeking out the care they need. Fortunately, our Merritt Island dental office is equipped with the resources you need to stay relaxed every step of the way. Our team can use nitrous oxide sedation to keep you comfortable during treatment. This safe, effective form of anesthesia is suitable for patients of all ages and can make all the difference when it comes to feeling confident in receiving the treatment you need. Its effects fade quickly so you can also drive yourself to and from your appointment.

  Teeth Cleaning

  A dental cleaning can remove plaque, which contains acid that eats away at your teeth and causes cavities and their unpleasant side effects, including toothaches and sensitivity. Plaque and tartar buildup on a tooth or along the gumline can result in inflammation. Our Merritt Island dental team can remove tarter and infection-causing bacteria that lead to gum disease. A dental cleaning can eliminate that layer of “grit” you may feel as you run your tongue along your teeth, as well as surface stains that can impact how you feel about your smile. Teeth cleaning gives your dentist the opportunity to address concerns at their earliest stages, such as stopping a cavity from turning into a root canal infection.

  Same Day Crowns

  CEREC crowns are designed and milled right in our office in Merritt Island, FL. There is no need to wait several weeks for a traditional crown! Once we take digital impressions of the tooth, the information is entered into specialized software. Then your crown is crafted out of a solid block of porcelain using our in-office CEREC milling machine–all on the same day.

  All-on-4 Dental Implants

  You may know that dental implants are artificial tooth roots that support restorations like dentures. However, if you have experienced jawbone deterioration due to tooth loss, you may not qualify for traditional implants. The All-on-4 method of implant placement allows your dentist to strategically place just four implants to restore a full arch. Most healthy patients with mild to moderate bone loss can undergo this restorative dentistry treatment without bone grafting–saving you time, money, and additional recovery time.

  Teeth Whitening

  Although whitening toothpaste, strips, and rinses are widely available, they cannot compare with the speed, quality, and results of professional cosmetic treatment. Over-the-counter treatments are often unreliable, if they are effective at all. With our professional Zoom teeth whitening system, you know you will get your money's worth with dramatic results. Contact our Merritt Island practice today to get started on your treatment plan, and start enjoying life with confidence in your smile and appearance.

  Laser Dentistry

  The Waterlase laser is a replacement for the traditional scalpel technique previously used to treat periodontal issues. Waterlase uses laser energy, air, and water to provide precise, virtually painless care. The laser provides a continuous stream of water during treatment to keep your teeth and gums hydrated and lower your level of discomfort, while carefully eliminating conservative amounts of infected or excess soft tissues.
