 Dr.
Michael Greding specializes in all aspects of restorative
and cosmetic dentistry.
As a full service dentist office, we also provide all preventative
care such as cleanings (including most periodontal procedures),
complete and periodic exams and x-rays.
Dr. Greding performs procedures that include:
Fillings: Composite Resin fillings are applied in
thin layers and slowly built up to form the composite filling.
These fillings are durable and make for a very natural looking
smile.
Extractions: includes routine removal of
tooth structure, minor smoothing of socket bone and closure,
as necessary
Crowns: Crowns are a type of dental restoration
which, when cemented into place, fully cup over the portion
of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line.
Bridges: A dental bridge is a false tooth,
known as a pontic, which is fused between two porcelain crowns
to fill in the area left by a missing tooth. The two crowns
holding it in place that are attached onto your teeth on each
side of the false tooth. This procedure is done to replace
missing teeth.
Partial Denture: A partial denture rests
on a metal framework that attaches to your natural teeth.
Partial dentures offer a removable alternative to bridges.
Full Denture: With full dentures, a flesh-colored
acrylic base fits over your gums. The base of the upper denture
covers the palate (the roof of your mouth), while that of
the lower denture is shaped like a horseshoe to accommodate
your tongue.

Root Canals: treatment used to repair and
save a tooth that is badly decayed or becomes infected. During
a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed and
the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed.
Veneers: Dental veneers are custom-designed shells
of tooth-like ceramic material that, when applied over the
surface of a tooth, can cover worn tooth enamel, uneven tooth
alignment or spacing and chips or cracks.
Preventive dentistry is our goal for every patient. It involves
the daily care, good nutrition, and periodic check-ups and
cleanings that maintain good dental health already achieved.
Preventive dentistry may not be where we start with every
patient, but it's where we like to finish.
Restorative dentistry is basic repair of the mouth. We mend
broken or leaking fillings, build crowns and bridges, fit
partial and full dentures, realign your bite. Where necessary,
gum disease is treated, or root canal therapy recommended.
The prevailing belief behind restorative dentistry is a simple
one: you can keep all your teeth for all your life.
Cosmetic dentistry is coming of age with new materials and
procedures that make a beautiful smile accessible to everyone.
Because our preventive and restorative programs have been
so successful, we now have the luxury of considering cosmetic
treatment for gaps, chips, and otherwise less-than-perfect
smiles.
Bottom line, our focus is always on dental health.We thank
you for allowing us to take care of your dental needs and
look forward to serving you.
