Some of the general and family dentistry services we offer at Uptown Dental include:

Bridges
A replacement for missing teeth using pontics (fake teeth) and supported by attaching to the natural teeth or implants on either side of the gap.

Crowns
A tooth-shaped cap that we use to cover a tooth in a number of circumstances, including a dental implant, cosmetic treatment, protecting a cracked or worn tooth, and more.

Emergency Dentistry & After Hours Dentistry
Dental injuries don’t always happen on a normal schedule or during regular work hours, which is why we offer treatment at short notice.

Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride varnish makes teeth more resistant to plaque and acid attacks and help teeth remineralize more quickly. Applying it takes only a few minutes and it’s easy to add on to a regular visit.

Mercury Safe and Mercury Free Fillings
We offer the highest standard in filling replacements, removing and replacing old silver amalgam fillings that can leech mercury over time.

Occlusal Disease Treatment
Treatment for a bad bite can involve simple orthodontic treatments, mild reshaping of the teeth, restorations of worn teeth, or a combination of several treatments.

Occlusal Night Guards
Wearing a night guard provides a cushioning effect so that your upper and lower teeth can’t wear away at each other. It protects your teeth from external damage caused by grinding, such as chipping and erosion.

Oral Cancer Screenings
Early detection through oral cancer screenings have been shown to increase the survival rate to 80% and better, which is why it’s so important to have this simple test done.

Sedation Dentistry
For patients who experience dental anxiety or dental phobia, we offer different sedation options to help make their treatment as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

A Healthy Smile is
a Beautiful Smile

At Venice Dental we provide cosmetic treatments to help you improver the look of your smile, in a lot less time than you think. We have solutions that will restore your smile! Some of the more popular cosmetic treatments performed in our office include:

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is one of the fastest and easiest ways to enhance your smile. The effects are long-lasting and can help you brighten a smile dulled by aging, food and drink stains or fluorosis. Your beautiful, pearly white smile can be restored with simple tooth-whitening procedures.

Crown & Bridge

Teeth require dental crowns due to cracks, old damaged fillings, or bite problems. A dental Crown is a custom-designed, tooth-shaped restoration that is fitted over the prepared surface of a damaged tooth to recapture the appearance and function of the tooth. A bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth and is usually attached securely to the existing teeth on either side of the gap.

Bonding

Quite often the larger teeth at the very front of your mouth can be stained, broken, or damaged, lending a generally unattractive appearance to your smile. This can easily be corrected at our dental office with dental bonding. Bonding is a simple, painless and affordable procedure that has many uses, including: repairing chipped teeth, closing spaces between teeth, reshaping and covering badly stained teeth.

White Fillings

Dental fillings heal the damage caused by cavities, prevent further decay from taking place, and help you restore your teeth’s structure and strength. Made of a tooth colored resin material, these fillings are made to match your existing teeth to provide you with a smile that looks clean and natural. With this resin compound bonding to your teeth, the seal is tighter and the restored tooth can be stronger than ever before.

Veneers

Veneers are made of porcelain and custom- fitted to your teeth, Veneers offers a virtually painless way to repair crooked, chipped or misshapen teeth. They can also be used to cover badly stained teeth and to smooth out an uneven smile. Porcelain veneers are highly durable, thin porcelain shells that permanently fit over the front surface of your natural teeth leaving you with an attractive, natural-looking smile. The process of fitting and bonding veneers to your teeth can be completed in as little as two visits.

Inlays / Onlays

Also known as indirect fillings, inlays and onlays made from porcelain or composite materials are a long-lasting yet cosmetic way to provide a “filling” to teeth with tooth decay or similar structural damage. Dental inlays and onlays are restorations used to repair mild decay or damage in rear teeth. They can also be used to repair cracked teeth in place of a dental crown if the damage is not too substantial. Whereas dental fillings are molded into place within the mouth during a dental visit, inlays and onlays are created in a dental laboratory before being fitted and adhesively bonded into place by our doctors. Since dental inlays and onlays can be made from durable tooth-colored porcelain, they offer a much more enduring and natural-looking result than metal fillings.

Total Smile Restoration

If you have complex dental problems and aesthetic imperfections, Dr. Dvorkin can design a complete smile makeover that will change the appearance of your smile. Whatever your circumstances or dental condition, we offer comprehensive treatment plans to help you get a more healthy, beautiful set of teeth.

By combining restorative and general dental care procedures such as full dental crowns and bridges with cosmetic dentistry procedures like teeth whitening, porcelain veneers and Invisalign.

Restore the Look and
Function of Your Smile

A missing tooth can cause oral health problems, reduce self-confidence, and negatively impact quality of life. Dental implants restore a tooth lost to injury, infection, or extraction. There are a number of ways to restore your smile and bring your confidence back. An alternative to bridges, partials or complete dentures may be dental implants. Implants are used to replace missing roots and support artificial replacement teeth.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. Anyone missing teeth understands that they sacrifice confidence and the ability to smile and laugh without covering their mouths in shame. The most obvious of benefits is the ability for greater enjoyment of life. 

The benefits even go far beyond this:

1) Improved appearance and overall self-esteem: dental implants look and feel like your own teeth because they permanently fuse with the bone. They give you back your smile and help you feel confident in yourself.

2) Improved speech: with dentures, the teeth can slip and slide in the mouth, causing slurring or mumbling. With dental implants, you speak without the worry that teeth might slip.

3) Improved comfort and convenience: because they become part of you, there is no more embarrassing inconvenience of removing dentures or the need for messy adhesives to keep them in place.

4) Easier eating: sliding dentures can make chewing especially difficult. Dental implants function like your own teeth, allowing you to eat your favorite foods without pain. Teeth are supported by stable and robust implant posts that have fused with your jawbone.

5) Improved oral health: dental implants don’t require attachment to other teeth, as a tooth-supported bridge does. Because nearby teeth don’t support the implant, your original teeth are left intact, improving long-term oral health.

6) Durability: dental implants are long-lasting and durable. With proper care, they will last many years. Some implants can last a lifetime.

7) Stopping bone loss: a natural tooth root provides continual stimulation to the bone surrounding it through force whenever you bite down or chew with that tooth. If the tooth is absent, this stimulation is lost, and the bone recedes. By replacing your tooth root with a dental implant post, stimulation is restored to your jawbone, halting further bone loss.

8) Healthy remaining natural teeth: restoring missing teeth with dental implants protects your remaining teeth by preventing them from moving out of position and maintaining your natural bite.

Ways to Remain Calm and Relaxed
During Your Dental Visit

nose. The gas, often pleasantly scented with vanilla or mint, works rapidly. Patients report feeling relaxed, calm, and happy during use. As its nickname implies, laughing gas can sometimes make people feel giddy or giggly, but without losing control.

Sedation dentistry will allow you to remain calm, relaxed and comfortable during any dental procedure you may need.

Sedation Dentistry will immensely benefit you if you have experienced any of the following while receiving dental treatment:

• Problems keeping your mouth open
• Extensive dental problems
• Considerable dental care in 1 or 2 longer visits VS multiple visits

With N2O, Dr. Dvorkin is able to perform many procedures on previously anxious patients helping them to feel no pain or discomfort. N2O has the added advantage of being completely reversible, with no lingering grogginess. When a procedure is completed, patients are given oxygen to breathe for a few minutes and the effect of the sedation is completely reversed.
