Joseph F. Sepe, DDS

We are proud to offer the latest in dental services. We are prepared to meet all your dental needs. Below are the services we provide:

Initial Oral Examination
Your initial oral examination includes a visual examination, charting, diagnosis and treatment recommendations.  We will also take x-rays, which includes the panoramic x-ray for proper diagnosis of the anterior (front) and posterior (back) teeth as well as the bite-wing x-ray series for proper diagnosis of proximal decay of posterior teeth.

Dental Implants
We work with an implant specialist to create an implant for a missing single tooth, missing multiple teeth, or to replace a removable appliance.

Teeth Whitening
Our Whitening system is our in-home whitening system you take with you for results in 2-3 weeks.
 

Crowns
When a natural tooth has had a root canal, has broken, or is malformed, it will require a crown.  A crown is an artificial tooth made from durable, tooth-colored materials, often porcelain, that has been fabricated to fully cover the natural tooth in order to protect it.  Chewing function and appearance are restored, and the replacement looks and functions like a natural tooth.

Bridges
Bridges are designed to replace missing teeth.  Plaster models are taken of your mouth, and sent to a laboratory, along with detailed instructions for the bridge design; paying strict attention to the shape, size and placement of the teeth and their relationship to the gums.  The bridge, often made of porcelain, is carefully matched to your tooth color, so it looks and feels just like your own teeth. It is affixed with special adhesive that is a permanent bond.

Fillings:
Resin or Composite fillings are tooth-colored fillings that are light-cured to match your teeth.  Amalgam fillings are silver and are made of more durable material.

Root Canals
We perform root canals on anterior and premolar teeth.

Periodontal Treatment
The American Dental Association suggests that you should have a standard cleaning at least twice a year.  A periodontal treatment includes an Adult Prophylaxis (basic cleaning).  If it has been over a year since your last cleaning, possible treatment will include either Periodontal Scaling (deeper cleaning) or Root Planing and Scaling (requires anesthetic).

Mouth Guards
Whether you are an athlete or casual sports participant, you should wear a mouth guard to protect your teeth.  If you grind your teeth while you sleep, a bite guard will help reduce symptoms of TMJ.  We custom-make mouth guards in both soft and hard materials.

Removable Dental Prosthesis
For missing teeth, we can make dentures or removable partials to replace those teeth.
