At Traverse Mountain Family Dental & Orthodontics, we do everything in our power to ensure your healthy natural teeth remain strong and functional. Our practice will customize your solutions specifically based on your needs and which treatments you are most comfortable with. From orthodontics to root canals, you’ll find it all here!
Teeth Cleanings
A teeth cleaning is performed by our dentist or hygienist. We recommend you have a professional cleaning at least every six months. We use advanced tools that can remove hard-to-reach and tough bacteria to prevent gingivitis and tooth decay.
Dental Exams
Dental exams and x-rays can tell you if you are suffering from tooth decay, infection, gum disease, oral cancer, or any other abnormalities. It is best to diagnose these things early so we can treat them before they progress.
Family Dentistry
You and your loved ones deserve smiles that you can show with pride. You also deserve total comfort without any tooth pain. In most cases, we strive to prevent pain and problems with conservative general treatments. These services include checkups, sealants, and cleanings.
Sometimes, the teeth may become extensively decayed or damaged, and may require further treatment. We provide a variety of solutions that can restore your smile.
Orthodontics
Are crooked teeth keeping you from smiling confidently in photos? Do you feel good about your smile when you meet someone new? Orthodontics can remedy crooked and crowded teeth, widely spaced teeth, or a bad bite. Come meet with our orthodontist for a complimentary orthodontic exam. Our team genuinely cares about your goals and concerns. We will let you know what options you may have regarding braces, and help you develop a treatment plan that will lead to a straight smile. Patients of all ages can see satisfying results with braces, Invisalign, or orthodontic appliances. Your smile will be more aesthetically pleasing, and also less susceptible to decay and disease. We offer metal braces, clear brackets, and Invisalign in Lehi, UT.
Root Canals
When a tooth’s pulp becomes infected or diseased, it is necessary to remove the source of the problem. Root canal treatment removes the infected area, eliminates pain, and allows the natural tooth to function again. Root canal treatment is actually the most comfortable way to fix an infected tooth, because the only other option is extraction and replacement. A root canal saves the natural tooth and can be more cost effective in the long run. We used advanced technology, sedation dentistry, and patient amenities to make sure you feel comfortable during each visit.
Dentures
Patients missing teeth can restore their confidence and quality of life with custom-fit dentures. These prostheses are composed of a gum-colored base and porcelain or plastic artificial teeth. Full dentures replace all of the teeth on the upper and lower arches, or both. Partial dentures nestle in the spaces between the natural teeth that remain in the mouth. We design beautiful modern dentures that look extremely believable.
