Preventative Care

We encourage our patients to schedule routine preventative treatments to maintain good oral health and to diagnose and treat any issues in an expeditious fashion. We perform all routine preventative care and diagnostic treatments at our office such as prophylaxis (cleaning), fluoride, sealants, diagnostic radiographs, as well as periodontal treatments such as scaling and root-planing for patients needing “deep cleaning” or more frequent recalls.

Minor Restorations (Fillings)

We do tooth colored restorations (fillings and bonding) at our office. Dr. Viertl will advise patients as to when fillings offer a viable and reliable solution to diagnosed dental caries (cavities) or cracked/chipped teeth or whether more major restorations are advisable.

Crowns, Bridges, and Implants

We work with an excellent local lab to provide major restorative treatments in the form of crown (cap) and fixed bridge-work to our patients. We perform the restorative/crown portion of implant work, but the surgical implant placement is referred out. To better ensure quality results, we currently only work with three local Oral Surgeons for implant placement.

Removable Prosthetics

We work with local and regional labs for making removable partial and full prosthetics (dentures). All removables are done on a case by case basis to ensure customers have reasonable expectations and are good candidates for removables. We typically will only do limited adjustments to cases made elsewhere.

Simple and Surgical Extractions

Dr. Viertl does Simple and Surgical Extractions at our office but some cases are referred out to an Oral Surgeon depending upon factors such as complexity and patient health history. We do not do any sedation and all extractions are done with local anesthetic. We have professional relationships with many local Oral Surgeons.

In addition to the above commonly performed treatments, we also perform a variety of more specialized treatments and other adjunct services like veneers, occlusal guards, whitening trays, and splinting. We offer periodontal and orthodontic treatments (Invisalign for adult patients only) but anything more involved is referred out to a specialist. This is also the case with Endodontic treatments (root canals) which are largely referred out but sometimes performed in our office. While we prepare at-home bleaching kits, we do not currently offer in-office teeth whitening. Our service offerings are driven partly by demand, by limitations posed by insurance carriers, and also considerations of how our time investments can best serve our patient needs.
