Basic Dentistry
To maintain and save your teeth, we have a variety of options available to you.
Amalgam (metal) fillings - We offer all of our patients quality amalgam fillings.
This appointment usually lasts less than one half hour. We provide novocaine or nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for your comfort.
Composite (tooth-colored) fillings - We use tooth-colored fillings for all visible
fillings in the mouth. In addition, we offer all of our patients the option of having all of their fillings be tooth-colored.
Crowns - If a tooth can no longer support a restorative filling, we can offer the
solution of a crown to keep your tooth intact. We use precious metals and porcelain in the fabrication of the crowns.
We can also make full gold crowns. When aesthetics are a primary concern, we can offer full porcelain crowns for a natural
look. Our primary goal is to keep your teeth healthy to last you a lifetime while also keeping your smile natural.
Root canals - If you experience a toothache, we may try a medicated filling
for the tooth to prevent the need for a root canal. For those teeth that do not respond to a medicated filling or are
unsavable, we provide root canals. We take every measure to ensure your comfort during the procedure. We may also work with
a root canal specialist to complete your treatment.
Periodontal care - For those patients who need additional treatment for periodontitis
and gingivitis, we offer scaling and root planing. We may also work as a team with a periodontist to achieve optimum care
for these patients.
Extractions - We do everything we can to save your teeth. Sometimes a tooth cannot
be saved, and Dr. Wiesner may perform the needed extraction. We may also work with an oral surgeon to complete your extraction
treatment.
Implants - Since 1989, we have been offering implants to replace missing teeth.
By inserting a post-like implant into your jaw, a replacement tooth can be added to your mouth. These teeth look and function
like a natural tooth. Implants can also be used to secure consistently loose dentures. We work as a team with an oral
surgeon and periodontist to complete your implant treatment.
Fixed bridges - We can also replace a missing tooth with a fixed bridge. Similar
to a crown, a bridge covers and uses an adjacent tooth as support for a new tooth to be placed in the space.
Partial or full dentures - We offer partial or full removable dentures to our patients.
Dr. Wiesner will custom fabricate your dentures for a snug and comfortable fit. He hand-selects the shade and teeth to complement
your facial features, and you are part of those decisions throughout the process.
Partial or full denture repair - We can repair some broken partials and dentures
in one day, allowing you to function without the extended loss of your denture. We will work with your schedule to find the
most convenient time for such repairs. If you are having trouble with your denture being loose or falling, we can reline your
denture or fabricate an implant that will secure your denture.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We can help you improve the look of your smile. The appearance of your mouth is always a priority in our office.
Composite (tooth-colored) fillings - We use tooth-colored fillings for all visible
fillings in the mouth. In addition, we offer all of our patients the option of having all of their fillings be tooth-colored.
Dr. Wiesner can also shape your fillings to create a more appealing smile. If you have a specific concern, Dr. Wiesner would
gladly discuss it with you.
Full porcelain crowns - These crowns blend well with the shade and appearance
of other teeth when a visible tooth needs to be crowned.
Veneers - Porcelain or composite veneers can be placed on the fronts of your visible
teeth to improve the shade and shape of your teeth.
Full mouth bleaching - For an overall whiter smile, we offer at home bleaching kits.
We use Colgate Platinum Gentle Plus Professional Whitening System. This system is designed for you to wear at night in thin
and flexible custom-made trays. It is gentle enough to prevent sensitivity as well. We will monitor your whitening in the
office to ensure you the results you desire.
Individual tooth bleaching - If you have only one or a few teeth that you would
like lightened to match your other teeth, we can address these more centralized stains with in-office individual tooth bleaching.
Orthodontic treatment - Dr. Wiesner is fully accredited for orthodontic treatment.
If you would like a minor adjustment to your tooth alignment, Dr. Wiesner can work with you to make those changes.
