Our Top Procedures

Dental Implants
Dental implants consist of a titanium post surgically placed in the jawbone, serving as a sturdy foundation for artificial teeth. They can effectively replace any number of missing teeth, from a single tooth to a full arch, providing a permanent and natural-looking solution.
The implants fuse with the bone through osseointegration, ensuring stability and durability that can last a lifetime with proper care. By restoring both function and aesthetics, dental implants allow patients to enjoy their favorite foods and smile confidently again.

Periodontics
Periodontics is a dental specialty focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease and the supporting structures of the teeth. Dr. Papp is trained to manage conditions affecting the gums, bones, and other tissues surrounding the teeth, ensuring overall oral health.
He also performs scaling and root planing, gum grafting, and dental implant placement to restore health and function. By addressing gum disease early, we can preserve teeth and enhance the aesthetics of a patient’s smile.

Laser Surgery
Laser surgery is a minimally invasive dental technique that utilizes focused light energy to treat oral health conditions precisely. This advanced technology can effectively remove or reshape tissue, making it ideal for gum contouring, lesion removal, and periodontal therapy.
One of the key benefits of laser surgery is its ability to minimize bleeding, reduce discomfort, and promote faster healing compared to traditional surgical methods. By offering a more comfortable experience and quicker recovery, laser surgery enhances patient satisfaction and overall treatment outcomes.

Full Arch Dental Implants
Full arch dental implants are a comprehensive tooth replacement solution designed to restore an entire arch of missing teeth using just a few strategically placed implants. This innovative approach provides patients with a stable, permanent foundation for a complete set of artificial teeth that look and function like natural ones.
We offer same-day smile solutions, allowing patients to receive new teeth in a single visit and providing immediate results and confidence. With full arch dental implants, you can enjoy a beautiful smile and improved functionality without the lengthy treatment times typically associated with traditional methods.
