If you have a missing tooth and it is impacting your comfort or your confidence, a dental implant could be your solution.
Dental implants have had a considerable impact on modern dentistry – offering a highly viable solution to replacing missing teeth.
A dental implant is essentially an artificial tooth that is placed, or implanted, into your jaw where a dental crown is then capped on for a complete tooth that looks and even feels like a real tooth. The best part is that the new replacement tooth will function as seamlessly as your regular tooth.
What is a root canal?
Root canal treatment is a dental procedure that relieves pain caused by an infected or abscessed tooth. During the root canal process, the inflamed pulp is removed. The surfaces inside the tooth are then cleaned and disinfected, and a filling is placed to seal the space.
When is a root canal needed?
Root canal therapy is necessary when oral bacteria invade the pulp inside of your tooth. This usually happens when a cavity is left untreated for a long time. It can also occur if your tooth becomes cracked or damaged due to trauma.
Intravenous (IV) sedation is a type of anesthesia given through a tube placed in a vein. It helps you relax, prevents you from feeling pain, and is mainly used for minor medical procedures that don't require deeper general anesthesia.
General dentists are the main providers of dental care to people of all ages. At a routine visit to your family dentist, you will probably have a thorough examination of your mouth (including teeth, gums, and other structures), a professional cleaning, and a discussion about your dental (and overall) health. If your exam reveals the presence of tooth decay, you will probably also have a filling in the affected tooth. Yet these procedures, while common, are hardly the only services your general dentist provides.
Wisdom teeth removal is a common oral surgery procedure. It’s often recommended as a preventative measure to protect your other teeth from future problems and preserve your oral health. Recovery is usually quick and most people can return to normal activities in just a few days.
I just had a very successful root canal treatment for two front teeth. The result is so so so amazing! The dentist and his crew are very nice, patient and helpful.

We really appreciate Brandy and Dr Peng during Andy’s transition from out of network dentist. Brandy is so helpful with all the insurance issues. Andy went for a cleaning first and cavity filled next. Dr Peng is such an honest and down to earth dentist. Andy is looking forward to continue dental care under Dr. Peng’s guidance. Thank you!
