Orthodontics for kids, teens, and adults
- LightForce™ custom brackets, 3D-printed for each tooth rather than pulled from a stock tray
- spark™ clear aligners and Invisalign® for patients who prefer removable treatment
- Incognito™ Lingual Braces, bonded behind the teeth and hidden from view
- Early evaluations for children, plus interceptive treatment when growth timing matters
According to the American Association of Orthodontists, a first orthodontic evaluation is recommended by age seven. Early screening can identify jaw growth issues, crowding, and harmful habits before they become complex problems. At those first visits, Dr. D often recommends watchful monitoring rather than immediate treatment, and she will tell you plainly when nothing needs doing yet.
Implants and restorative dentistry
Dr. Peter Skuben, DDS, leads general and restorative dentistry, and he plans implant cases digitally using i-cat® 3d imaging and iTero® digital impressions before anything is placed. Nothing goes into the jaw until the position, angle, and depth have been mapped, measured, and reviewed with you.
A single dental implant replaces one missing tooth without affecting neighboring teeth. A titanium post is placed into the jawbone, acting as a new root. Benefits Westminster families ask about most:
- No impact on adjacent healthy teeth
- Preserves jawbone density and facial structure
- Looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth
- Restores most of your natural bite force
Preventive, cosmetic, and specialty care
Hygiene visits, tooth-colored fillings, crowns, and gum therapy keep small problems small. For cosmetic changes, we plan Venus® whitening, Lumineers®, and bonding around your natural tooth shape rather than a one-size template. Athletes, night grinders, and snorers can be fitted for appliances during the same visit series.
