General Dentistry At Wicker Park Dental Group, we keep our practice ahead of the curve. Each year we add new products and procedures that raise the level to which we can meet patients’ needs. Our general dentists keep abreast of new concepts and ideas with ongoing continuing education, national and international conferences, and study group sessions.
Cosmetic Dentistry Today, it seems that every dental practice promotes cosmetic dental procedures. However, the magic seen on television requires amazing skill, attention to detail, and artistic sensibility. Our doctors have offered these procedures since before the current dental fad and continue to meet the highest expectations—as seen in our many happy patients.
Teeth Whitening & Bleaching At Wicker Park Dental Group, we have offered teeth bleaching methods for more than 15 years. We currently feature the ZOOM whitening system—the most advanced whitening system on the market today. Clinical studies have shown that no other whitening system can get teeth whiter—as much as 12 shades lighter in just one hour. In addition to in-office procedures, we also offer the ZOOM “Weekender” which achieves the same, astonishing results. Our doctors can discuss the option that is best for you.
Veneers Veneers can be used on chipped, cracked, crooked, discolored and under size teeth. They are not recommended for most teeth that have had root canals or have large old filling or extensive decay. Properly placed veneers, because they are very thin baked porcelain, cannot be distinguished from your own teeth. They are bonded to the enamel and therefore, not a lot of tooth structure is removed. You can achieve a beautiful lasting smile in usually 2 visits.
Crowns & Bridgework Ideal replacement for broken down teeth, teeth with large fillings requiring replacement or teeth that have had root canals. The new porcelains and composites look and feel like natural teeth. When there are teeth missing, a bridge may be appropriate to close the space and prevent further drifting and tipping. Very often, the missing tooth space can be replaced with an implant instead of a bridge.
Periodontics The health of the oral tissues, especially the gums, often goes without proper care and maintenance. Medical research now indicates that gum disease not only affects the teeth, but also factors into our overall health and longevity. A basic cleaning is the first line of defense against gum disease, however, in more advanced cases, our periodontal specialist has the knowledge to properly diagnose and correct present problems to return patients to good oral health.
Pediatric And Adult Children who are comfortable with their dentist become enthusiastic about their oral health throughout their lives. At Wicker Park Dental Group, we know how important it is to create positive, dental experiences for patients of any age, and we are particularly sensitive to the needs of children.
Emergency Dentist We block time every day to accommodate patients with the unexpected emergency. Broken fillings or crowns or chipped teeth, can often be taken care of the same day. |
