Exceptional Dentistry...Beautiful Smiles!

Dr. Engelage uses the latest techniques to create and maintain beautiful and healthy smiles. We are pleased to offer our patients the following services in a friendly and comfortable environment.

Braces & Invisalign (Orthodontics)
Dr. Engelage understands the importance of having healthy teeth and proper jaw alignment. Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain. This can result in tooth decay, worsen gum disease and lead to tooth loss. Other orthodontic problems can contribute to abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, inefficient chewing function, excessive stress on gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth, or misalignment of the jaw joints. These can lead to chronic headaches and face or neck pain. Orthodontics can be less costly than the additional care required to treat dental problems arising as a result of orthodontic problems. For most people, a beautiful smile is the most obvious benefit of orthodontics.
Dr. Engelage is a certified Invisalign Provider.  Invisalign is the "clear" way to straighten your teeth. Invisalign gradually moves your teeth through a series of custom made, removable, nearly invisible Aligners.  Thanks to CAD CAM technology, Invisalign is able to transform smiles in months without wires.

Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain Veneers offers the ultimate in esthetics. A veneer is a thin facing or covering that bonds to the natural tooth structure. A much more conservative alternative to crowns (caps) that can give you the smile you have always dreamed of and deserve.

Porcelain Veneers are top line in cosmetic dentistry.  If your teeth are chipped, broken, or discolored, porcelain veneers are a great way to change the color and shape of your teeth.  Veneers can be a great alternative to braces for slight orthodontic problems and provide a beautiful smile in a short amount of time. The results are simply gorgeous!

TMJ Therapy
Headaches, clenching, grinding teeth - Many people damage their teeth or give themselves headaches by grinding or clenching their teeth during their sleep.  Some people develop jaw joint (TMJ) pain. We offer nightguard type splints to help with this. 

Laser Cavity Detector - Diagnodent
The diagnodent is a major breakthrough that allows Dr. Engelage to detect tooth decay that x-rays cannot see.   We can now locate hidden decay in it's earliest stage, and with treatment stop the spread of the disease before it destroys the tooth from within.

Gum Treatments
We have laser gum treatments. Our hygienist is both thorough and gentle!   We can help you create a custom preventive maintenance routine to keep your teeth and gums healthy.  If you have gum problems, we offer both non-surgical and surgical gum therapies.  We also offer treatment for cold sores and mouth ulcers.

Dental Implants
Implants are an increasingly popular alternative to dentures and bridges. They have many advantages, including their natural appearance, improved comfort and unequaled convenience. If you are considering implants, we can discuss the considerations and help you make the decision that is right for you.

Early Cancer Detection
Our office provides a Velscope Examination for the early detection of oral cancer. this new detection technology is completely painless and takes only a few minutes. If you've had cancer in your family, we highly recommend this exam.

Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the simplest and least expensive techniques that can give you a brilliant and beautiful smile. Our custom made whitening kits to use at home are comfortable, easy to use, and deliver great results.

Root Canals
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic treatment, is a dental procedure in which the diseased or damaged nerve of a tooth is removed so that the tooth can be saved or restored. Most root canals done in one appointment.

Metal Free Crowns
Crowns, or caps, are used to restore broken or cracked teeth. The new metal-free crowns eliminate the ugly black line you may have seen next to the gum line on older crowns.

Tooth Colored Fillings
Inlays and Onlays are tooth-colored restorations that are used in place of silver fillings on the chewing surfaces of back teeth.  This approach has become very popular because silver (mercury) fillings are not safe and are less attractive.

 

Dentures & Partials
While we wish no one would ever need dentures, sometimes they are the most reasonable option. In the past wearing dentures was the only form of dentistry available to improve a person's smile. When they are indicated we take the time necessary to create attractive, well fitting dentures. They can't beat a set of your own teeth when they are healthy and straight, but when natural teeth can't be restored dentures look great and chew well.

If a person has lost too much of their jawbone to steady their dentures, implants can be placed. The dentures are attached to the implants to hold them firmly in place.  If you have this problem, call us for a consultation appointment.

Surgical Procedures
We also provide a variety of Surgical Procedures including extractions of broken teeth, wisdom teeth, root tips, denture mini implants, and bone grafts.
