We have complete equipment and facilities to take care of nearly every major
dental treatment that you may require
Bridges A fixed bridge, usually made of gold, is used to replace missing teeth. A bridge helps to create a normal bite, prevent stress on the dental arch, prevent the drifting arch, prevent the drifting and tilt of adjacent teeth, inhibit decay in abnormal areas, and slow the onset of periodontal disease.

Crowns A crown is a restoration that covers a tooth in order to strengthen and restore it to its normal shape and size. A crown may be placed to support a large filling when there is little remaining tooth structure, attach a bridge, protect weak teeth from fracturing, or restore fractured teeth. A tooth that has been treated with root canal therapy will require a crown following treatment to provide strength and support to the tooth. We only use materials for our crown that will provide the longest lasting benefits to our patients.

Full Dentures Full dentures are used if there are not any teeth left for support. The full denture covers more of the jaw than a partial denture and is partly held in place by a vacuum created upon insertion. New hidden clasp or clasp-less dentures are available as well as duplicate dentures and denture repairs.

Implants The replacement of missing teeth can be
accomplished in several different ways. Implants are one of
these. The implant is placed in the bone to provide anchorage or
stabilization to teeth or to a prosthesis and then left to heal for 4 to 6
months. Then it is uncovered and the process of making a new crown
begins. This takes 3 to 4 appointments. Return to services page

Onlays When you are not in need of a full crown, onlays may be the solution. The onlay procedure is a restoration in which composite, porcelain, or gold is applied to a tooth surface to provide support as a conservative treatment option.

Orthodontics Orthodontics refers to the corrective
treatment of irregularities in the teeth and is concerned with the growth,
development, and variations of the face, jaws, and teeth. Dr. Alleman
will treat adults and children with crowding or spacing problems. The
usual treatment time for a full orthodontic treatment is 18-24 months.
However, this can vary case by case. Return to services page

Partial Dentures Partial dentures are indicated if some serviceable teeth are present for support in conjunction with the gums and jawbone. A partial denture, though removable, provides form and function replacement for missing teeth.

Root Canal Treatment Root canal therapy is needed if your tooth's pulp is irreversibly damaged.
We offer no-pain, single appointment treatment. The damaged nerve is removed and filling material is placed into the canal. A crown subsequently follows to insure stabilization of the total tooth structure. Dr.
Anderson's procedure can save teeth that would otherwise require extraction.

Veneers
Usually customized from porcelain, veneers are thin, semi-translucent facings bonded to the fronts of teeth. Veneers are durable, stain resistant, and natural-looking. They conceal broken, chipped, discolored, crooked, and misshapen teeth, and provide you with the winning smile you have always wanted.
