Dentures
Millions of older Americans rely on dentures to help them speak clearly and chew their food, but over time, they can become loose-fitting, uncomfortable, and unreliable. If you’re looking to get a set of teeth you can trust, we can design a prosthetic ideally suited to your specific needs that is both stable and natural-looking. Partial dentures can replace multiple teeth missing along a single arch, while full dentures can help bring back an entire row all at once.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are the gold standard when it comes to replacing missing teeth. They are the only treatment that restores both the root and crown of a tooth, creating something that is the next best thing to nature. We work with a dream team of oral surgeons and periodontists to place our patients’ implants, and then our dentists can provide custom-made restorations that can bring back any number of teeth for a lifetime.

Dental Crowns & Bridges
Do you have a few teeth that have seen better days or some dental restorations that need to be replaced? Dr. Mohr and Dr. Ariel can personally design custom-made dental crowns and bridges to beautifully and durably repair damaged teeth and even replace missing ones. These restorations can improve someone’s smile both aesthetically and functionally at the same time, making practically any dental problem disappear.

Dental Checkups & Cleanings for Seniors
Routine preventive dental care is essential no matter your age because many oral health issues (including oral cancer) present little to no symptoms during their initial stages, only becoming apparent as they progress. A dental checkup allows us to catch and treat any tooth decay or damage you might have before it can cause you a major headache down the line. With a teeth cleaning from one of our hygienists, we’ll be able to remove plaque and bacteria from between your teeth and around dental restorations that your tools at home simply can’t reach, stopping problems before they even start.

Periodontal (Gum) Disease Treatment for Seniors
Older patients are more susceptible to developing gum disease for many reasons, as certain health conditions and medications can lower saliva production in the mouth, making it a more welcoming environment for harmful bacteria. We perform gum screenings at every regular checkup so we can find and treat infections as soon as possible. For patients who already have gum disease, we have many dedicated treatments that are proven to eliminate the infection and restore health to the entire smile.

Tooth-Colored Fillings
About 90% of Americans will experience a cavity at some point in their life, so in all likelihood, you probably have at least one silver filling in your mouth right now. Thankfully, when it comes to repairing small cavities and slightly damaged teeth, we can now offer a much more aesthetically friendly option: tooth-colored fillings. They are made of a composite resin material that can be shaded to perfectly match any patient’s enamel color, making the restoration itself look just like a natural dental structure. We can even use these fillings to replace old silver ones that are either worn out or cause a patient to feel self-conscious.
