Explore Our Care
Crowns and Bridges
A crown covers or replaces an entire tooth, while a dental bridge fills the gap between two teeth. These two treatments can both be effective for replacing missing or damaged teeth.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is about making positive changes to your smile. If your teeth are not as white as you would like, then our dentist at Shore Drive Dental can provide professional whitening treatments to enhance their appearance.
General Dentistry
Our general dentist provides regular dental care for patients of all ages. This specialty includes everything from restorative procedures such as fillings and crowns to preventive services like cleanings and exams.
Occlusal Guards
An occlusal guard is also referred to as a night guard or a bruxism guard. It prevents bruxism, which is the clenching or grinding of the teeth that occurs mainly at night and can lead to tooth damage and jaw pain.
Teeth Whitening
Many people choose whitening procedures to reduce stains and discolorations on their teeth. Natural teeth have a translucent, white color that can fade over time due to aging, diet, or habits like smoking.
Snap-on Smiles
A Snap-on Smile is a removable dental prosthesis that can instantly improve the appearance of your teeth by covering imperfections such as gaps, stains, or missing teeth.
