Procedures

Preventive Care

Our focus is to treat people holistically. We can show you how to reduce your risk for a number of diseases. We enjoy discussing numerous ways to improve your health with brushing and flossing techniques, unique materials, diet and an assortment of “alternative” procedures.

Restorative Procedures

There are many new or improved materials which can very conservatively restore or change your teeth and smile. We offer an array of restorative materials and procedures from extremely esthetic porcelains to 24kt gold foils. Discussing your concerns and needs will help plan the best treatment for you. The majority of services can be performed painlessly without anesthetic (no shots).

Reconstructive Procedures

Dr. Baldwin excels in difficult and complicated reconstructive procedures. Because of his experience and skills it is often possible to provide several types of services in a single visit. This can often eliminate the need for multiple visits with specialists. Crowns, onlays, bridges, implants, root canals and surgical augmentation procedures are available to restore ideal function and appearance.

Most oral and periodontal surgeries are performed in our office including simple and “wisdom teeth” extractions, periodontal pocket reduction and multiple types of tissue grafts.
