Dental
Implant Restoration for a Perfect Smile
One or many missing teeth can be replaced with dental
implants. They provide full functionality for chewing and
give you a complete and healthy smile. They rise up from
under the gums and look as if they grew there naturally.
Those with no teeth can benefit, as implants can anchor
dentures securely to eliminate the problem of looseness and
shifting. An oral surgeon first places the titanium post,
and Dr. Ellsworth will create the natural-looking
restoration. All implants match other teeth, and you will
have your smile restored to a beautiful look.
Overdentures – The Answer for
Slipping Dentures
If you are tired of dentures that move when you eat or
speak, we can offer you the stability and strength of
overdentures. They are a recent breakthrough that can anchor
a bridge or denture to eliminate the problems of trapped
food and slurred speech. Our team can give you both a great
look and the best fit. You will have even more reason to
smile.

Older
Adult Dental Care is Different
Our teeth change as our bodies age. Plaque may build up,
caffeine may leave stains, gums or roots may suffer from
infection, and fillings may crack. Regular check-ups help to
keep on top of the situation before it reaches a serious
level. If you take medications that result in lessened
saliva flow, we have products that can remedy the problem.
We encourage good nutrition and proper daily cleaning to
keep your gums and teeth healthy. If gums start to bleed or
teeth loosen, please contact us immediately.
A Healthy Smile at Every Age
Healthy teeth and gums can keep you smiling well into your
retirement years. Proper dental care of your teeth can help
them last a lifetime. Older adults need to know that it is
never too late to preserve and protect their smiles. Modern
dentistry offers a variety of options that allow you to
preserve, enhance and maintain your beautiful smile.
As you get older, your dental needs become increasingly
specialized, making regular visits to the dentist even more
essential. You need a dentist who understands those specific
needs. Dr. Ellsworth provides specialized, custom care to
meet the needs of his most important patient – you.

Saving Hopeless Teeth
In the past, a tooth with damaged or infected roots would be
extracted. That has proven to cause lots of problems and
should be avoided when possible. Dr. Ellsworth is well
experienced in the latest techniques of root canal therapy.
Root canal therapy is a procedure where the interior pulp
chamber of the tooth is removed and replaced with a special
material (not the regular filling material). Sometimes a
crown will be placed over the tooth to strengthen it.
In times past, this procedure received a bad reputation
among patients. However, with today’s latest advancements in
treatment and anesthetics, it is quite manageable and can
even be comfortable.

Will You Need a Crown?
Crowns are sometimes necessary if a tooth is broken or worn
down. When there is too much damage for a filling, a crown
will both save and strengthen it. We use the latest
materials to construct your crown. It looks so beautiful and
fits so well, it is indistinguishable from your natural
tooth.
