Our Services In Dental Care

Cosmetic Dentistry

• Dental Veneers: The thin, handmade shells are designed for aesthetic purposes so that the entire front surface of a tooth's color, shape, size, or length may appear.
• Invisalign Clear Aligners: This almost invisible orthodontic treatment uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth without relying on metal braces.
• Teeth whitening: This dental treatment makes a smile shine by removing stains and discolorations, reviving a brighter glow.

General & Family Dentistry

• Cleanings & Exam: A healthy mouth needs regular check-ups and professional cleanings to keep other dental problems from getting out of control.
• Emergency Dentistry: It offers prompt, appropriate intervention in emergency dental cases to reduce the patient's pain and prevent complications.

Restorative Dentistry

• Composite Dental Fillings: These are tooth-colored fillings that fill cavities and restore the natural appearance of decayed teeth.
• Artificial teeth: These are one or more replacements for missing teeth supported by adjacent implants for their form, function, and aesthetic purposes.
• Crowns: Crowns are caps placed over a tooth that has suffered damage or decay to replace the form, size, strength, and appearance.
• Dental implants: They permanently replace teeth by placing a titanium post under the jaw bone, allowing crowns that cap the implant to be identical to natural teeth.
• E4D Same-Day Crowns: This is the latest innovation in placing crowns without a provisional crown step.
• Root Canal Therapy: An infection or significant decay in which the infected pulp and nerve within the tooth have to be drawn out, internally cleaned, and sealed.

At Burgess Dental, we prioritize your comfort and relaxation while providing quality care through modern techniques for preventative and aesthetic treatments, helping you achieve a fabulous smile.
