Healthy teeth and gums are important things that all members of your family should have, and we’re here to help.

One of the most important parts of general family dentistry is the regular dental hygiene appointment. When you come in twice a year for these appointments, we’ll clean your teeth, and perform other important health checks such as screening for oral cancer, gum disease and cavities. The earlier smile problems are detected, the easier it is to treat them and restore health to your smile.

We also offer dental sealants and fluoride treatments to help provide extra protection for your child’s teeth as they grow and develop. Important brushing and flossing habits are essential to good dental care, and we’ll make sure you and your child are properly caring for your smiles.

CEREC One-Hour Crowns at South Shore Dental Care

CEREC crownDo you have a damaged or decayed tooth that needs a crown restoration but you’ve been putting it off because of the time involved? At South Shore Dental Care we are proud to offer CEREC one-hour crowns that fit into your busy life. We’ll repair your tooth with a minimum impact to your life. In most cases it only takes an hour.

A crown is a cap that is designed to fit over a damaged or decayed tooth to help strengthen it and return function to your smiles. Traditionally, getting a crown was a fairly lengthy process that involved at least two dental visits and requiring a temporary crown while waiting for your permanent restoration to be milled. We know that our patients are busy, so we take advantage of this great CEREC technology that allows us to speed up the process.

For CEREC crowns, we take a digital impression of your tooth that’s then sent to an in-office milling unit which will craft your porcelain crown while you wait. This technology also eliminates the need for impressions, which many patients don’t enjoy. Once your CEREC crown is ready, we’ll fit it onto your tooth, leaving you with a completely restored tooth after only one dental visit. Give us a call today to learn more about this technology and see how it can help improve your smile.

At South Shore Dental Care, we’re committed to providing our patients with a wide array of dental services, high-quality cosmetic dentistry, and up to the minute dental technology. Our Massapequa dental office serves patients from Long Island, Merrick, Bellmore, and Wantagh. Call us today to schedule your appointment.

This is a great cosmetic dentistry solution that can help you achieve the beautiful smiles you’ve seen on your television and in magazines.

Teeth become stained for a variety of reasons, including aging, food, alcohol, coffee, tobacco, and even certain medications. Teeth whitening can remove these stains, regardless of the cause. We offer in-office treatments from Zoom! Whitening to give you a brighter smile quickly. After about an hour long visit to our dental office, you’ll see an immediate difference. This method works by putting bleaching gel on your teeth and then activating it with a special light.

If you’d prefer to whiten your smile from the comfort of your own home, we can also provide you with an at-home teeth whitening solution. We’ll give you a custom-fitted whitening tray and professional whitening gel. Fill the trays with the gel, wear as directed, and you’ll see a whiter smile in about four days.

A bright, white smile doesn’t have to be a dream any longer thanks to teeth whitening. Give us a call today to see how we can help improve your smile with this great cosmetic dentistry solution.
