Our Procedures
At Alpine Dental Center, we do more than clean teeth. We also perform procedures such as the following:
- Dental implants. A dental implant is a replacement tooth that mimics a natural tooth. A titanium root is inserted into the bone and can be used to support a denture, crown, or bridge. Dental implants look and act just like real teeth. They can last a lifetime with proper care.
- Restorations. If your tooth has been damaged by decay, the good news is that you can restore its shape and appearance. Fillings are the most common type of restoration. Crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and veneers are also used.
- Cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry can help enhance the appearance of your smile. Whether you are dealing with stains, worn-down teeth, or misshapen teeth, there are many options that can help. We offer dental implants, Invisalign, teeth whitening, veneers, and more.
- Root canal therapy. Root canal therapy is needed when the nerve of a tooth is decayed or infected. It is better to save the tooth than to have it pulled. In order to save the tooth, the pulp, nerves, bacteria, and any decay are removed and the resulting space is filled with special dental materials that restore the tooth to its full function.
- Emergency dentistry. If your teeth are painful or you have suffered injury or trauma to your teeth, it’s best to see a dentist right away. At Alpine Dental Center, we provide same-day emergency dental care. If you have a knocked-out tooth, bleeding gums, toothache, or other issues, call us right away.

FAQs
Here are some common questions that patients have about their teeth:
Q. How often should I visit the dentist?
- It’s generally recommended to visit the dentist every six months for a routine check-up and cleaning. However, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits if you have specific dental concerns.
Q. What causes tooth decay?
- Tooth decay is caused by plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that forms on your teeth. When you consume sugary foods and drinks, the bacteria in plaque produce acids that can erode tooth enamel and lead to cavities.
Q. What are dental sealants?
- Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the molars. They help prevent cavities by sealing out food and plaque.
Q. What is the difference between crowns and veneers?
- Crowns cover the entire tooth, providing strength and protection, while veneers only cover the front surface of the tooth. Crowns are typically used for more severe cases of damage or decay, while veneers are used for cosmetic enhancements.
Q. At what age should my child see an orthodontist?
- The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early evaluation can help identify potential issues.
Q. What is Invisalign?
- Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners used to straighten teeth. The aligners are custom-made, removable, and nearly invisible, making them a popular alternative to traditional metal braces.
Q. What is a root canal?
- A root canal is a procedure to remove infected or damaged pulp from inside a tooth. It’s necessary when the pulp becomes infected due to decay or injury, causing pain or abscess.
Q. What are dental implants?
- Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone. They provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Q. What is a dental crown, and why might I need one?
- A dental crown is a cap that covers a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. You might need a crown after a root canal, to protect a weak tooth, or to cover a dental implant.
Q. When should my child have their first dental visit?
- Your child should have their first dental visit by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears, whichever comes first.
Q. What type of toothpaste should I use for my child?
- For children under 3 years old, use a small smear of fluoride toothpaste about the size of a grain of rice. For children aged 3 to 6, use a pea-sized amount.
Q. How can I help my child prevent cavities?
- Encourage good oral hygiene habits, such as brushing twice a day, flossing, and eating a balanced diet. Regular dental check-ups are also important.
Q. What causes bad breath, and how can I prevent it?
- Bad breath can be caused by poor oral hygiene, certain foods, dry mouth, gum disease, or other medical conditions. To prevent it, maintain good oral hygiene, stay hydrated, and visit your dentist regularly.
Q. What should I do if I have a toothache?
- If you have a toothache, rinse your mouth with warm water, floss gently to remove any trapped food, and take over-the-counter pain relievers if necessary. See a dentist as soon as possible to determine the cause.
