Teeth Whitening

Let a brighter, whiter smile be your calling card!

Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gels allow you to whiten your teeth at your convenience—in a safe, effective, and customized way. They can provide results after just one night, though most cases take about one to two weeks. Dr. Kotsianas will estimate a timeline based on your teeth and course of treatment.

Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gels are delivered via a customized bleaching tray that your dentist creates from an impression of your mouth. This customization is part of why Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gels are so effective. You can further customize your Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gel experience by choosing from two intensities in mint flavor. Powerful, prescription-strength Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gels are available in varying degrees of intensity, depending on your unique needs.

The upper teeth in our picture have been whitened, while the bottom teeth have not been whitened.

Ask Dr. Kotsianas how your smile can be brighter from Opalescence Take Home Whitening Gels.

Teeth Restoration

Veneers, crowns, and implants give the perfect smile everyone wants. Our porcelain tooth-colored restorations strengthen and beautify every tooth they are bonded to. Strong composite materials are color-matched perfectly to adjacent teeth.

  • Veneers are very thin shells of porcelain attached to the front of teeth to improve overall appearance or shape. They involve a simple bonding procedure, yet they provide a life-like appearance and resist staining.
  • Crowns are made from high-grade porcelain made by local labs that work closely with us to make sure the look, color and fit are perfect for you.
  • Implants permanently replace missing teeth. The replacement tooth is bonded to an artificial root attached to the jaw bone. Implants bring naturally beautiful, confident smiles to countless patients.


  • Laser Dentistry

    Lasers enable us to examine your teeth and treat your gums.

    Laser Cavity Detection. Our new DIAGNOdent® laser cavity detector is a painless and extremely accurate high-tech procedure that enables us to explore your teeth for decay without scratching, probing, or X-raying. With DIAGNOdent®, our hygienists monitor your teeth condition over a series of visits and can identify suspicious areas needing further examination by Dr. Kotsianas.

    Laser Treatments. Laser treatments remove diseased gum tissue with little or no discomfort. As the foundation of your teeth, your gums are important for your health and appearance. Poor gum health can cause bleeding, tenderness, loose teeth, and bad breath. Laser treatments are minimally invasive, so there is little or no recovery time.




    Digital X-Rays

    Our up-to-date digital X-Ray system is safer for you because it uses less radiation, and it enables us to examine your X-Rays instantly on our computer monitors to diagnose problems and determine proper treatments.

    Cancer Screening

    Dr. Kotsianas is a certified ViziLite Plus® provider. ViziLite Plus® is part of a comprehensive oral-cancer screening that uses fluorescent lighting to identify abnormal cell density in oral tissue. This technique has proven successful in identifying soft tissue abnormalities in other areas of the body. A ViziLite Plus® exam is particularly important if you are at increased risk for developing oral cancer. An annual ViziLite Plus® exam, in combination with a regular visual examination, provides a comprehensive oral screening procedure for patients at increased risk for oral cancer. The ViziLite Plus® exam is painless and fast, and it could help save your life. Click here for more information about Vizilite Plus®.

    Maintaining Your Smile

    Keeping your smile bright for your lifetime is easy. In addition to brushing and flossing, regular cleaning and checkups will keep your teeth bright and identify and fix problems that develop. Our skilled, gentle, and knowledgeable dental hygienist provides advanced non-surgical periodontal therapy and gives you undivided personal attention during your cleaning visits.

    Autoclave

    A Sterile Environment for Your Health

    We use the best sterilization equipment and follow the most meticulous procedures for everyone's health. Our dental instruments are sterilized in high-pressure autoclaves immediately after every use. All bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores are inactivated by computer-controlled high-pressure steam. Each instrument is individually packaged for the next use. Our staff is constantly updated on the newest sterilization techniques and regulations. We meet or exceed all professional requirements.

    The Wand

    Your Comfort Is Our Mission

    There's no feeling uncomfortable around here. We have helped thousands of anxious patients in our many years of practice. Everyone on our team knows how to make our patients feel at ease and make their dental experiences pleasant and fearless.

    Our state-of-the-art, computer-controlled Wand® anesthesia system eliminates the discomfort of syringe needles. By penetrating your gums with little force and measuring the amount and flow of anesthesia by computer, our wand makes your experience as pleasant as possible.
