The gums are protected and the whitening material is painted onto the teeth and activated by a light. Most commonly patients use tray whitening to achieve excellent results. Molds are taken of a patient’s teeth and custom made thin rubber trays are fabricated.

A tooth infection or abscess is a painful dental condition that occurs when bacteria enter the tooth through a crack or cavity and infect the pulp (soft tissue) inside the tooth. Specialized root canal treatments to save damaged teeth and relieve pain quickly and effectively. Lasers are devices that use photons of light for benevolent biologic effects. The WaterlaseMD is a champion of lasers and performs many different tasks. The old paradigm of continually losing teeth, one by one and eventually needing dentures is no longer true. This takes some of the strain off the overworked remaining teeth and helps preserve those overworked teeth.
Single Crown (CAD/CAM)
Straighten your teeth discreetly with Invisalign, the clear, comfortable alternative to traditional braces. There is much less post-operative discomfort and this treatment is part of Minimally Invasive Dentistry. Sharing your experience helps others make the right decision when searching for a business like this.
General Dentistry
The patient’s own blood contains stem cells and many other powerful healing components. We have been using blood derived healing components for more than 10 years. In extraction of a tooth the use of Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) can be combined with other healing components to speed healing and reduce pain and the chance of dry socket. Extraction sites that have been treated with PRF and grafting have a better chance of bone healing leaving the option open for a future dental implant.
The comprehensive exam is, in our opinion, the most important visit that a patient will ever have with us. A comprehensive exam usually lasts up to two and a half hours and does not include a dental cleaning, or prophylaxis. Our trained staff will spend time with the patient to review their medical and dental histories as well as their concerns, fears, hopes and desires. Oral cancer screening and pH testing as well as blood pressure and potentially other relevant tests are performed. The use of the high definition video camera through the high powered dental microscope, enables the patient to see clearly the condition of their teeth and mouth.

Preventative Dentistry
It is commonly used in crown and bridge to trim unhealthy tissue that is necessary to provide a clean impression and healthy post-op healing. Patients are continually amazed at how there is virtually no discomfort, even the next day, after significant amounts of gum have been trimmed. This laser is very effective in other soft tissue applications such as biopsy. Many biopsies can be completed with only the use of topical anesthetic.

There are numerous advantages including the need to remove less tooth in the preparation, no need for impression material or a 2nd visit and wearing a temporary crown. Aesthetically, CEREC crowns are superior to traditional crown and bridge. We are part of the ¼ of 1% of dentists that practice Safe Mercury Removal. Removal of Mercury is a significant exposure of mercury to the body, much more than the normal exposure to mercury in the mouth from chewing, brushing and grinding of teeth. To protect the dental personal we use respirators and have a whole office filtering system.
Lasers
Most importantly we use lasers and Ozone inside of the canals, which are the most effective ways of killing bacteria; this leads to a higher success rate. Periodontal XLase s a laser with a different wavelength nm that is specific to pigmented bacteria. These pigmented bacteria are the more pathologic bacteria that are responsible for bone loss in periodontal pockets.
PorcelainVeneers
The long-term success rate is high and implants can look like natural teeth. Implants can also be used to eliminate a denture or help stabilize a denture. Tooth extraction is something that we try to avoid but, when necessary, we attempt to do it in as atraumatic way as possible. We thoroughly debride the socket and any infected tissue with the laser and ozone gas to provide for optimal bone healing. In many cases we will recommend a Socket Replacement Graft using the PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin) technique.
It can be something as simple as smoothing the edges of the front teeth or whitening to changing the shape of one crooked tooth with bonding; to a full mouth reconstruction. There is nothing as rewarding as seeing the joy of a patient as they see an improved Smile for the first time. Crown and Bridge is the term applied to the restoration of a broken down tooth with a crown and the replacement of a missing tooth or teeth with a bridge. Traditionally, crown and bridgework was done with a metal substructure and porcelain baked onto the metal to make the tooth look natural. With today’s technological advances, we are able to replace metal with strong, all ceramic materials. In general, the all-ceramic materials are more biocompatible to human body, and they are much more aesthetically pleasing.
We’re here to brighten your smile with our comprehensive and cutting-edge care. Scaling and Root Planing is a procedure that involves a thorough cleaning of the root surface in deeper periodontal pockets. This is usually performed with local anesthesia and most patients are pleasantly surprised that we are able to use newer anesthetic gels that do not require the need for a shot of novocaine.
Nitrous oxide is a gas, sometimes known as laughing gas, which the patient breathes through their nose during a dental procedure. It is a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen and helps the patient to relax and calm their apprehension. One of the many benefits of Nitrous Oxide is that there are no lingering side effects and the patient can drive home by himself or herself after using it. Anxiety-Free Dentistry is performed without an IV or putting the patient to sleep. It is very helpful for patients that have severe anxiety in receiving dental treatment. The patient is given an oral sedative that relaxes them but does not put them "to sleep".
The E-Max CEREC crowns and veneers are cured in a computer-controlled oven and there is ability to custom stain and glaze restorations as would be done in a dental laboratory. We are able to do beautiful anterior restorations that truly mimic the natural tooth and smile. CEREC technology also works well with implant restorations and can even fabricate the abutment that joins the implant to the crown.
With lasers the Gum is not removed from the tooth but the pocket is treated alongside the tooth, under the gum. The lasers are able to kill bacteria in the pockets, help clean the roots and stimulate new bone growth in some cases. It is capable of cutting both hard and soft tissue, as well as many other beneficial biologic effects. This laser can remove a cavity from a tooth, often times without the need for local anesthesia. It is very effective in killing bacteria and is an excellent adjunct to the conventional drill in a deep cavity or preparation.
This improves the ability of the patient to taste their food better. We even have the option of a denture with a metal substructure that can be permanently screwed into implants very much like a permanent bridge. Smile Design & Wellness Center is an Innovative, Comprehensive, Biological Dental practice located in Viera, Florida. We pride ourselves in working as a team to provide exceptional dental treatment in a warm and caring environment.
Patients generally experience much less discomfort after the procedure than they expected. We use Ozone to help enhance the benefits of scaling and root planing. Ozonated water is used in our ultrasonic instruments and ozone gas is used to help kill bacteria and stimulate healing under the gum.
