General Services
It’s great news that the incidence of tooth decay has significantly diminished over the years due to the use of fluorides and an increase in patient awareness. However, teeth are still susceptible to decay, infection, and breakage and sometimes need to be restored back to health. And there is good reason why for the last 20 years the people of Indianapolis and Carmel have trusted our practice to do just that. Our office is truly a family, home-like atmosphere that puts you and yours at ease as soon as you enter. Timely and caring attention to emergencies, professional dental care, and top-notch customer service is just a few more of the many things that patients love about our office.
And should your teeth ever require a restorative treatment, you can rest assured knowing we will always discuss with you the available options, and recommend what we believe to be the most comfortable and least invasive treatment. We use the latest in dental technology and improved techniques to offer more options for restoring a tooth back to its normal shape, appearance and function. Providing you with excellent care is our number one priority when creating your beautiful smile.
- Tooth Colored Fillings – These fillings are made of durable resin can be bonded to your teeth for a stronger and more natural-looking effect. It will also blend in much better with any teeth whitening services you may have received.
- Laser Assisted Fillings – In many applications, we can replace the noise and vibration of the drill with a targeted beam of light. This laser does the same job as the dental drill, but with no whining noise, no rumble, and in many cases without the need for a local numbing agents – no more injections!
- Inlays & Onlays – When the strength and longevity of a crown is needed, but there is still enough healthy tooth structure left to allow for a more conservative and less invasive approach, an inlay or an onlay may be recommended.
- One Visit Crowns – With our advanced Cerec® CAD/CAM technology, you no longer have to wait for your dental crowns to be sent out to a laboratory for molding. Instead, your entire restoration can be created by us while you wait, in just one office visit.
- Porcelain Crowns – These crowns add beauty to your smile. Our skill at crafting comfortable, beautiful, long-lasting dental crowns makes Keystone Dentistry second to none. Dental crowns, also known as caps, slide over the teeth to hide misshaped, misaligned, discolored, or other tooth imperfections. They are also used to cover and protect cracked teeth, increase comfort, and offer extra support to teeth that are weak or damaged.
- Dental Bridges – Two dental crowns joined in the middle by an artificial filler tooth allows this option to replace missing teeth. Though diminishing in popularity due to technological advances, this treatment is still widely used today and can be a great option for many people.
- Root Canal Therapy – When an inflamed or infected nerve is unable to recover on its own, sometimes we must perform root canal therapy in to help the body cleanse the tooth of residual bacteria or tissue irritants before it overwhelms your body’s defense mechanisms.
- Partials & Dentures – These removable prosthetics can complete a smile that has little or no remaining teeth. With realistic prosthetic teeth attached to a gum-colored base, these are sometimes hard to tell from the real thing.
- Implant Supported Prosthetics – Thanks to strength and versatility of implants, our patients with partials or dentures now have the option to have fixed dental work and receive the benefits of preserving bone. This is a more stable solution especially for those who have wobbly dentures due to bone deterioration.
- Full Mouth Reconstruction – Because we are able to practice multiple disciplines of dentistry we can utilize a combination of treatments; this enables us to assess your mouth, develop a plan, and restore or correct the function and appearance of your smile all at the same office.
