Gum tissue grafting treatment

Gum recession is the process in which the tissue that surrounds the teeth pulls away from a tooth, exposing more of the tooth or the tooth's root. This can cause damage to supporting bone. Gum recession is a common dental problem.

Comprehensive exam

This exam consists, in part, of the hygienist and Dr. Oliveira looking inside your mouth. They look in your mouth for things that can affect your oral—and your overall—health. Many of these things are invisible to the untrained eye. Your dentist will, however, be able to detect them.

Dental implants

A dental implant is a titanium post (like a tooth root) that is surgically positioned into the jawbone beneath the gum line that allows a tooth or a bridge to be placed into that area. Come see Dr. Oliveira to find out if you are a good candidate for dental implants.

Removable prosthesis

Partial dentures are removable dental prostheses that are used for patients that are missing some of their teeth; the restoration is anchored or latched onto the patient’s remaining natural teeth. They may have a metal framework and clasps that connect to your teeth, or they can have other connectors that are more natural looking.

Trauma, cavities, cracks or defective fillings that have been ignored can cause bacteria to reach the dental pulp—the part in the center of the tooth—and infect it. When this happens, the tooth can even become abscessed.

Oral surgery

Due to the lack of space in the mouth, the third molars, also known as the wisdom teeth, tend to totally or partially appear into the mouth, possibly causing problems such as pain, inflammation, caries and resorption on the neighboring teeth.
