IV Sedation

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

IV sedation helps the patient feel less anxiety and feel relaxed and sleepy. However, it is given to the patient through a syringe to the vein. As opposed to taking a pill, IV sedation effects are felt almost immediately. Your dentist can also adjust how much sedation you are given for the perfect amount needed every time. Patients will need to find someone to give them a ride home from their appointment because the effects won’t be worn off yet.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Also known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide is one of the safest forms of sedation available. The effects of this gas are completely reversed within 3-5 minutes, simply by breathing normally. You will be able to safely drive home or to work following your appointment. The gas is delivered by a small mask over the nose. You remain conscious and are fully aware during treatment. Most importantly, it helps eliminate fear and reduces anxiety by helping you relax.

Implants

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Crown & Bridge

Dental implants eliminate the pain and discomfort of removable full or partial dentures. Dental Implant supported replacement teeth are like natural teeth because they are anchored securely to your jawbone. One of the most important benefits of dental implants is that they greatly improve the quality of your life in regards to speaking, convenience, eating, and appearance.

Crown & Bridge

Crown & Bridge

Crown & Bridge

A crown is placed over an individual tooth, (somewhat like a thimble over your finger) where there is no longer sufficient tooth structure left to place a filling. A bridge spans a space where one or more teeth have been lost in the dental arch. The teeth on either end of the span are crowned, and are referred to as abutments. The false teeth in a bridge that join the abutments are referred to as pontics. Both esthetics (appearance) and function are considered during treatment.

Invisalign

Crown & Bridge

Invisalign

Dr. Heppner or Dr. Bailey will completely evaluate your smile to determine if you are a candidate. If you qualify, images and impressions of your mouth will be sent to the Invisalign lab to have custom aligners made to fit your mouth. You will swap your aligners out every 2 weeks to slowly move your teeth into their desired position. Benefits of straight teeth: healthier gums, easier to clean teeth, prevents abnormal tooth wear, decreases risk of tooth injury, decreases headaches or neck pain, improves self-esteem and happiness, improves overall health.

The Wand

Crown & Bridge

Invisalign

We know that some patients get more nervous than others at the mere sight of a needle and syringe. That’s why this office performs all anesthetic injections with a revolutionary system called The Wand.

  • It doesn’t look like a syringe.
  • It doesn’t hurt like a syringe.
  • It works better than a syringe.
  • A better injection for all patients

The Wand helps us provide a more effective anesthetic delivery. You’re more comfortable throughout the procedure, and we may be able to use new techniques so you won’t experience the lingering numbness of your tongue, lips, and face.

Veneers

Botox/Dermal Fillers

Veneers

Veneers are thin, semi-translucent “shell" made of porcelain, permanently bonded to your existing tooth structure. While they’re not suitable for every patient, veneers are a cosmetic alternative for a variety of dental conditions of the front teeth, including:

diastemas (spaces between the teeth); broken or chipped teeth; unsightly, stained or washed out fillings; permanently stained or discolored teeth; misshapen or crooked teeth.

Braces

Botox/Dermal Fillers

Veneers

Dr. Casacci provides treatment for traditional wire braces. Benefits of straight teeth: healthier gums, easier to clean teeth, prevents abnormal tooth wear, decreases risk of tooth injury, decreases headaches or neck pain, improves self-esteem and happiness, improves overall health.

Botox/Dermal Fillers

Botox/Dermal Fillers

Root Canal (Endodontic) Therapy

If you are experiencing an increase in wrinkles you are unhappy with, you may benefit from a Botox treatment. In addition, Botox can be used to help relieve painful symptoms of TMJ. Botox works to relax the muscles in the face and help alleviate pain.


The procedure for Botox is quite simple. First, Dr. Casacci will determine where the treatment needs to be injected to provide the results you are hoping for. Next, she will inject the syringe into the determined areas. Botox works by temporarily paralyzing muscle activity. This forces the muscles to relax, causing wrinkles to be less noticeable. The treatment takes a matter of minutes for results that can last up to a year!

Root Canal (Endodontic) Therapy

Root Canal (Endodontic) Therapy

Root Canal (Endodontic) Therapy

The most common reasons you may need a root canal are: 1. Trauma – A physical blow to a tooth or a constant striking by a tooth in the opposite jaw that traumatizes the tooth. 2. Physical Irritation – Deep decay or a very large filling.  Regardless, the tooth pulp becomes irritated and an abscess (infection) occurs. Bacteria from your saliva grows within the tooth pulp, causing pressure and pain. In some cases your face may swell. Eventually the pulp dies, causing destruction of the bone surrounding the tooth's root.

Composite Fillings

Root Canal (Endodontic) Therapy

Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique

We use a "tooth colored" composite filling material while filling cavities. We also have a digital scanner that will give us the exact shade of your tooth to ensure we are using the right filling material to match the rest of your tooth. We have not used amalgam "silver" fillings in many years.

Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique

Root Canal (Endodontic) Therapy

Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique

With traditional gum grafting, the dentist must use a scalpel and stitches to solve gum recession. With the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique, Dr. Heppner does not use a scalpel or stitches. The technique is easily done by using a needle to make a small hole in the gums. From there, Dr. Heppner uses a specially designed instrument to gently loosen the gums to expand the gums and slide them into their desired location. The procedure doesn’t require any sutures, grafts or incisions.

Teeth Cleaning

Teeth Whitening

Teeth Cleaning

Professional cleanings performed by our Dental Hygienists are recommended every 6 months to maintain good oral hygiene.  For patients who require extensive "deep" cleanings, our Hygienists are able to provide periodontal treatment to bring the mouth back to a healthy state.

Night Guards

We can make an appliance that would be worn at night to relieve grinding and clenching that can result in headaches.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth Whitening

Digital Impressions

The two major types of tooth whitening systems are "In-office Professional Zoom Whitening" or at home whitening conducted by the patient with whitening trays. Sometimes your dentist may recommend either system or a combination of both, to give you the best results in the least amount of time. Regardless of which type of system you choose, it’s important that you follow the recommendations of your dentist. 


Self-treatments (as advertised on television) can be dangerous!

Sealants

Digital Impressions

Cone Beam CT Scan

Sealants are a clear, acrylic-like material that helps shield decay-causing bacteria from the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. It is recommended that sealants be applied to a child’s primary (baby) molars by the age of three or four years. Once the six-year molars (the first permanent back teeth) appear, it is best to apply sealants as soon as possible. As a child’s most cavity-prone years continue until the mid-teens, the premolars should also be sealed as they appear
