Our Services
We offer a wide range of services to cater to your dental needs. From routine cleanings and fillings to more complex procedures such as crowns, root canals, and dental implants, our team of experienced dentists and hygienists are equipped to handle any dental issue you may have.
Invisalign
Invisalign is a revolutionary alternative to traditional wire braces. Using clear, incremental aligners, Invisalign adjusts your teeth to achieve a beautiful, healthy smile. Our team provides expert consultations to determine if Invisalign is the right option for you.
Bridges
A dental bridge is a common treatment for missing teeth. It literally bridges the gap created when teeth are lost. A bridge is made up of two crowns on each side of the missing tooth/teeth that anchor a false tooth to fill in the gap.
Veneers
Veneers are thin, strong, porcelain shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They can immediately transform the appearance of your smile, restoring its natural beauty. Custom-created for each patient, veneers can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted.
TMD Therapy & Mouth Guards
Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD) is a relatively common condition that refers to symptoms resulting from a misalignment of the teeth, clenching or grinding caused by stress, or in some cases, the joints themselves. Our team is experienced in treating this disorder. We offer treatment options, including custom-crafted mouth guards, which can be done in our office.
Crowns
Crowns may be required when a tooth is severely damaged. Sometimes, a crown is necessary when a tooth has suffered from advanced decay or fractures within the tooth and cannot be restored with a bonded filling alone. Crowns cover the tooth and restore its original function, strength, and esthetics.
Dental Implants
If you have lost one or more teeth or have dentures and you're ready for a permanent solution, consider a dental implant restoration. This surprisingly simple procedure is a great solution for tooth replacement.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Part of our initiatives to make your visit as pain and stress-free as possible, we offer nitrous oxide sedation for a more pleasant and relaxing experience.
Botox Cosmetic
We also offer Botox Cosmetic from the Family Dentistry of Okeechobee. Botox Cosmetic is the first and only treatment FDA-approved that temporarily improves the look of crow's feet, frown lines, and forehead lines.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal disease is more common than you may think. Symptoms include red, swollen, and sometimes bleeding gums. Treatment can vary according to the severity of the disease, with early stages corrected with routine dental cleanings and more advanced stages requiring scaling and root planing.
Oral Cleaning
Regular dental cleanings are crucial for maintaining good oral health. We will remove stains, plaque, and tartar that are too difficult to remove by brushing and flossing alone. We also inspect your teeth, gums, and smile to detect any issues that may be developing.
Our Commitment
At Family Dentistry of Okeechobee, we are committed to making your dental experience comfortable, friendly, and professional. Our team of experienced dentists, hygienists, and office staff will work together to ensure that you receive the best care possible. We are dedicated to staying up-to-date with the latest technology and best practices in dentistry to provide you with the highest level of care.
