Cosmetic Dentistry
Our office specializes in cosmetic dental services that enhance your smile. We focus on improving the look of your teeth and gums through treatments like:
- Clear Braces: ClearCorrect® aligners are a modern, removable alternative to metal braces, with no dietary restrictions. To learn more about our ClearCorrect services, see Clear braces.
- Porcelain Veneers: Veneers are another fantastic option for transforming your smile. They are thin shells of porcelain that cover tooth stains, chips, cracks, fractures, and short teeth. They fit over the front of teeth, blending in with your natural teeth. To learn more about treatment with porcelain veneers, see Porcelain veneers.
- Teeth Bonding: A cost-effective way to fix chipped or cracked teeth with biocompatible material, similar to veneers but quicker and less expensive. To learn more about dental bonding, see Teeth bonding.
- Teeth Whitening: One of our most popular services. Our custom take-home whitening kits brighten your enamel by several shades. To learn about our teeth whitening services, see Teeth whitening.
General Dentistry
Our general dental services keep your teeth and gums healthy. Regular check-ups and cleanings are important for good oral health. During your visit, we carefully examine your teeth and gums for any signs of problems. We also take X-rays to find hidden issues early on.
Regular check-ups can prevent serious dental problems later. If you have cavities, our skilled dentist will fix them with high-quality fillings. Our other services include:
- Custom Mouthguards: Sports mouthguards help protect your teeth and prevent injuries. To learn about the custom mouthguard we provide, see Custom mouthguard.
- Emergency Dentistry: For any dental emergencies, call Dr. Courter’s office for quick treatment. To learn about how we can help you during a dental emergency, see Emergency dentistry.
- Family Dentistry: We provide comfortable and quality care for all ages. We can also help families schedule appointments for everyone on the same day. To learn about family dental care at our Midland dental office, see Family dentistry.
- Sedation Dentistry: Nitrous oxide and oral sedation help you feel relaxed during your treatment. These options are great for patients with dental fear or anxiety. To learn about your dental sedation options, see Sedation dentistry.
- Tooth Extraction: Dr. Courter offers simple and complex extractions for overcrowded, infected, or impacted teeth. To learn about how we extract teeth at our dental practice, see Tooth extraction.
Preventive care is key to keeping your smile healthy. We give personalized advice on brushing, flossing, and using fluoride to strengthen your teeth. Sealants protect your molars from cavities, and we also screen for oral cancer during your check-up. Early detection helps improve treatment success.
Restorative Dentistry
Our restorative dental services fix damaged or missing teeth, restoring both function and appearance. These treatments include:
- Dental Bridge: These replace multiple missing teeth in a row. We offer both fixed and removable bridges, but implant-supported bridges provide the best results. To learn about your dental bridge options, see Dental bridge.
- Dental Crown: These porcelain caps cover damaged teeth or implants, adding strength and protection. To learn about how we can repair your teeth with crowns, see Dental crown.
- Dental Implants: Implants consist of titanium posts, abutments, and crowns. They replace single teeth or support bridges and dentures for long-lasting solutions. To learn about replacing your lost teeth with dental implants, see Dental implants.
- Dentures and Partial Dentures: Dentures replace rows of missing teeth. Fixed implant dentures are more durable and don’t irritate gums like removable ones. To learn about how dentures can help you, see Dentures.
- Periodontal Disease Treatment: We offer antibacterial rinses, scaling, and root planing to prevent gum disease. Good oral hygiene and regular cleanings are the best ways to avoid gingivitis and periodontitis. To learn more about our gum disease treatments, see Periodontal disease treatment.
- Sleep Apnea: We offer custom oral devices to treat mild sleep apnea by keeping your airway open to prevent snoring and breathing issues. To learn about how we treat sleep apnea, see Sleep apnea.
- TMJ Treatment: TMJ disorders happen when the jaw joints are stressed or injured, causing teeth grinding, jaw pain, and headaches. Night guards can help relieve pain and prevent damage. To learn about our treatments for TMJ issues, see TMJ treatment.
