Additional Information
When a person loses a tooth, it needs to be replaced in order to maintain proper alignment of the surrounding teeth and a healthy shape of the face. In the past, bridges or partial dentures were commonly used. However, implants are a more effective and permanent solution. The implant effectively creates an artificial root for an artificial tooth, crowns, dentures or bridges. The implant allows for unidirectional movement of the two without reciprocal action. They are usually created out of pure titanium for safety and durability.
A dental implant is a multi-step surgical procedure. After preparing the jaw, the implant will be put into position. Over time, the bone and the artificial root will fuse together through a process called osseointegration. The new root will be every bit as permanent and stable as the original tooth root was. The amount of time and visits required to complete the process depends on several factors, including the overall health of the patient and the condition of jawbone. Unlike bridges, crowns and partial dentures that have to be replaced every few years, implants can last for as long as your original teeth.
Dr. Muller is a highly experienced dentist offering high-quality dental implants and other procedures. He uses state-of-the-art equipment to provide patients with a more comfortable, positive experience. His modern facilities are relaxing, and his friendly staff strives to provide every client with excellent customer service. They treat patients like members of their own families, and they’re committed to giving every patient the extra care and individual attention that they deserve.
Not all dentists are certified in this type of procedure. It requires additional training and advanced certification courses. This delicate surgery calls for skilled hands and a thorough understanding of these modern dental treatment options. The staff at Muller Family Dentistry understands how serious this process is and how important it is for you to restore the natural appearance and shape of your mouth. They do everything they can to make their patients comfortable and provide them with a successful implant procedure. Dr. Muller communicates regularly and openly with his patients. This allows them to understand and be involved in the planning, preparation, implant placement protocol and overall restorative services.
To have the most thorough and effective dental whitening procedure, your best bet is to make an appointment with Dr. Muller. Our office will generally use a combination approach that involves the use of a whitening gel that is applied to the teeth in a mold and left in place. Many dentists opt for follow-up whitening treatments that take place at home. They prepare custom trays with the proper instructions and amount of whitening products, including professional strength bleach, to produce optimal results in a shorter amount of time. While some offices choose to use laser light to increase the whitening effect, this can result in an increased amount of sensitivity, so we do not do laser whitening.
Cavities, also known as dental carries, sometimes occur on tooth surfaces or in-between teeth. Brushing teeth regularly may not be enough to prevent cavities from forming, because it’s difficult for either manual or electric toothbrush bristles to clean between the tiny grooves and chewing surfaces of teeth. If these are left untreated, tiny cracks or pits are the start of tooth decay.
Dental sealants are a kind of resin film that prevents cavities from developing. After application by Dr. Muller or a hygienist, these sealants bond to the tooth surface and harden. They work by sealing the surface of the tooth and protecting it from foods and harmful bacteria.
Tiny cracks or grooves on the teeth are smooth and, because it’s less likely to find a hospitable environment on the sealed surface, cavity-causing plaque can’t grow. That’s why sealants can make regular tooth-brushing and flossing easier and much more effective, too.
Product and Services
eeth Whitening: Natural composite restorations can replace amalgam or silver dental fillings. Teeth that have a dull or stained appearance can be given a brighter look with teeth whitening. The color of your teeth are an important part of evaluating you for any type of procedure, such as dental implants, porcelain veneers, composite bonding, bridges or crowns. Teeth that are discolored or dark give the mouth an older appearance, while white teeth suggest youth.

Gummy smiles can transformed with re-contouring.Have Fuller Lips, Cheeks and Smile: Dr. Muller can improve or rejuvenate an aging or unshapely face with procedures such as nonsurgical bite correction and orthodontics.
He will create a treatment plan that is customized to your needs so you can have the smile makeover that is just right for you. Treatments may include a variety of procedures, such as gummy smile reduction, braces, crowns, veneers, teeth whitening or composite bonding.
Replace Missing Teeth: Missing teeth will adversely affect your appearance. They also make you more vulnerable to tooth decay and have an impact on your bite. Partial dentures, bridges or dental implants can replace missing teeth.
Spacing and Alignment: You may have teeth that are overlapping, crooked or that have gaps between them. These can be straightened, corrected with veneers or aligned with orthodontics. When it comes to oral health care, one of our most important goals is to promote healthy gums and teeth. This assists in the prevention of needing an extraction (tooth removal). There are some instances, however, when there is no other option but to remove a tooth. Infection, trauma, or decay can be reasons why a tooth may need to be removed. Another reason is caused by “wisdom teeth”. These are large molars in the back of the mouth that develop between the ages of 17–25, and often need extracted because they do not grow into the mouth properly, causing pain and other complications.
Whatever the reason for the extraction may be, the procedure itself is nothing to be fearful of. Many people think the teeth are set solidly in the jawbone, but they are actually fixed in their own individual bony socket and held together by a network of ligaments. Dr. Muller can usually easily remove the tooth with gentle and careful manipulation and it is generally not an invasive procedure.
