  • SMART (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique)

    The safety of mercury in dental amalgam fillings has been a topic of debate and scrutiny for many years. Dental amalgam is a mixture of various metals, with mercury being one of the components. While mercury is indeed toxic in its elemental form, it is bound within the amalgam mixture in a chemical form that is less readily absorbed by the body.


    The rationale for considering dental amalgam safe by many dental authorities and organizations, including the American Dental Association (ADA) and the World Health Organization (WHO), is based on its chemical stability. The mercury in dental amalgam forms a stable compound with other metals like silver, tin, and copper, creating a less volatile material. This reduces the release of mercury.


    However, it's essential to consider individual factors, such as allergies or sensitivities, when deciding on dental materials. Many patients may have concerns about the potential health effects of mercury exposure, and in such cases would benefit from SMART.


    In biological dentistry, SMART stands for Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique. This approach is followed when removing dental amalgam fillings all of which contain mercury. The SMART protocol emphasizes safety measures to minimize the release of mercury vapor and particles during the removal process. The acronym SMART, in this context, highlights the importance of specific steps and precautions to protect both the patient and the dental professionals involved in the procedure.


    The SMART protocol at Dental Muse includes measures such as

    • using a rubber dam to isolate the tooth being worked on
    • providing the patient with a nasal mask supplying medical-grade oxygen to prevent inhalation of mercury vapors
    • using not only high-speed intraoral suction but also high-speed extraoral evacuation to remove mercury-contaminated air
    • proper protection of the patient's hair, face, and body from mercury exposure, and
    • ensuring proper disposal of removed amalgam material as hazardous waste.

  • Ozone

    We offer Ozone therapy using a Promolife Ozone generator and medical-grade oxygen. Some of the advantages of ozone therapy in dentistry include:


    1. Antibacterial Action: Ozone has strong antimicrobial properties, capable of killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi. In dentistry, it can be used to disinfect and sterilize dental instruments, treatment areas, and even the oral cavity. This can help prevent or treat oral infections, including periodontal disease and dental abscesses.
    2. Minimally Invasive: Ozone therapy is non-invasive and typically painless. It can often be used as an alternative to more invasive dental procedures, reducing the need for drilling and preserving healthy tooth structure.
    3. Cavity Treatment: Ozone can be used to treat early-stage dental caries (cavities) by arresting or reversing the decay process. It can help remineralize tooth enamel, preventing the need for traditional fillings in some cases.
    4. Gum Health: Ozone therapy can be used to improve gum health by reducing inflammation and promoting healing in cases of gingivitis and periodontitis.
    5. Reduced Sensitivity: Ozone treatment can alleviate tooth sensitivity, making it a useful option for individuals with sensitive teeth.
    6. Reduced Need for Antibiotics: Ozone therapy can sometimes lessen the need for antibiotics in treating oral infections, which can be especially beneficial for individuals concerned about antibiotic resistance.
    7. Improved Healing: Ozone therapy may enhance the body's natural healing processes, potentially reducing recovery times after dental procedures.
    8. It's important to note that while ozone therapy shows promise in various dental applications, its effectiveness can vary depending on the specific condition and the patient's individual needs.


  • Laser Dentistry

    At Dental Muse, we pride ourselves on taking advantage of the latest technologies. The use of lasers in gum treatment, also known as laser periodontal therapy or laser-assisted periodontal treatment, offers several benefits in dentistry:

    1. Minimally Invasive: Laser procedures are typically less invasive than traditional gum surgery. They can often be performed with little to no cutting or sutures, resulting in less discomfort and a shorter recovery time.
    2. Reduced Discomfort: Laser treatments are generally less painful than conventional gum surgery, which can involve more extensive tissue manipulation. This makes the experience more comfortable for patients.
    3. Precise and Controlled: Lasers allow for precise targeting of affected tissue while preserving healthy tissue. This precision minimizes damage to surrounding areas.
    4. Reduced Bleeding: The laser's ability to coagulate blood vessels as it cuts reduces bleeding during and after the procedure, enhancing overall safety.
    5. Faster Healing: Patients usually experience faster healing times with laser gum treatments. There is often less swelling and discomfort, enabling a quicker return to normal activities.
    6. Reduced Risk of Infection: The high-energy light from lasers has a sterilizing effect, which helps minimize the risk of infection during and after the procedure
    7. Minimal Scarring: Laser treatments can result in minimal scarring and tissue shrinkage compared to traditional surgery, which can sometimes lead to a more aesthetic outcome.
    8. Improved Periodontal Health: Laser therapy can effectively remove or reduce the infected or inflamed gum tissue, promoting gum health and potentially reducing the progression of gum disease.
    9. Enhanced Cosmetic Outcomes: Laser procedures can be used to reshape the gum line, improve the appearance of the smile, and aid in cosmetic dental work like veneers.
    10. Reduced Need for Anesthesia: In some cases, laser gum treatments may require less local anesthesia or even no anesthesia at all, which can be preferable for patients who are anxious about injections.

Preventative

We can catch any issues before they become a problem

  • General Holistic Dentistry

    At Dental Muse, we go beyond traditional dentistry by embracing a holistic approach that encompasses both oral health and overall well-being. While traditional dentistry focuses solely on treating conditions affecting the oral cavity, our team of holistic dentists believes in addressing dental issues within the broader context of the entire body. We understand that various aspects of health are interconnected, and dental problems can extend beyond the mouth, potentially impacting the overall wellness of an individual. With this understanding in mind, we offer specialized holistic dental services that cater to your unique oral health needs while promoting your overall vitality. Discover the benefits of our holistic dentistry approach by calling our office today. 

  • Teeth Cleaning

    Patients who commit to routine preventive dental care typically experience fewer oral health problems over time. Semi-annual professional cleanings allow us to take a proactive approach to your dental health. Your dental hygienist uses special tools to remove excess plaque and tartar from the teeth. Once your teeth are tartar free, your hygienist will gently polish the teeth to remove surface stains. They will also look for any signs of gingivitis and may give you a few hygiene tips to help improve your smile health.

  • Oral Cancer Screening

    Early detection and treatment of oral cancer can significantly increase your chances of a quick and complete recovery. Oral cancer can afflict anyone although tobacco users put themselves at significantly higher risk than non-users. At every hygiene visit, we examine all the tissues of your mouth including gums, cheeks, lips, tongue, and jaw. If we suspect any unusual changes in your mouth tissue, we may suggest a biopsy and microscopic analysis by a qualified lab.

Restorative

We can restore your teeth to perfect health

  • Implants

    Dental implants feel and function like natural teeth and last a lifetime. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are a permanent solution. Many patients do not even notice a difference between their replacement teeth and natural teeth. Dental implants allow patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

  • Fillings

    Dental fillings are one of the most common procedures in dentistry. In this routine treatment, we will inject an anesthetic near the tooth to numb the area. Then, we will use a dental drill to remove any decay present in the area and fill in the carved-out space with a dental restoration material. Fillings can be made of biocompatible restorative options, or tooth-colored composite resin depending on your budget and aesthetic desires.

  • Full & Partial Dentures

    Dentures are an affordable way to replace any number of missing teeth. They have a long history of success, and over 40 million Americans rely on dentures to maintain oral function. Dentures are removable substitutes for missing teeth. Full dentures are used when a person is missing all their natural teeth, while partial dentures replace only a few missing teeth to eliminate gaps and improve oral functions. Denture treatment is customized to each patient’s specific needs. Our team can help you decide which option works best for your smile.

  • Root Canals

    Toothaches are a vivid reminder that teeth aren't just pieces of hard tissue floating around in the gums. They are intricately formed sensory organs with layers of dentin and enamel protecting a living pulp. Coursing through the tooth's pulp is a vital bundle of nerves and blood vessels providing nutrients and sensation to each tooth. Root canals are the most common way to treat problemed pulp. We will remove the pulp and carefully clean out the canal. The space that is used to hold the pulp is then filled and sealed. Afterward, a crown or a restorative structure will be placed on the treated tooth to protect it and allow normal function. You may experience slight pain and discomfort for a few days after your root canal.

  • Bridges

    Whenever you drive across a bridge, you're being supported by the same principles that support a dental bridge. Dental Bridges are used to replace a missing tooth or teeth. It's called a bridge because it spans the space and is attached at both ends to other teeth. An artificial tooth is connected to the supporting teeth and replaces the missing tooth. Many patients choose bridges because it is an affordable treatment to replace multiple teeth.

Cosmetic

Your dream smile is closer than you think

  • Veneers

    Veneers are the ultimate combination of dental art and science, handcrafted and customized to fit your smile. These paper-thin pieces of porcelain bond to the outside of your natural teeth. Veneers can hide tough stains, and chipped teeth, fill in unwanted gaps, and can even make misaligned teeth look straighter. Our team will work with you to design your veneers to your exact specifications.

  • Teeth Whitening

    Teeth whitening removes years of dingy stains from your teeth. Coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and chocolate can dull tooth enamel. Simple and safe, most patients don't realize how discolored their teeth are until they see a new smile emerge. Professional whitening treatments can be performed in the office or we can send you home with a custom whitening kit so you can brighten your smile from the comfort of your home.

  • Invisalign®

    For ultimate camouflage, clear aligners offer a modern straightening treatment. A series of clear plastic trays are made using 3D digital models of your teeth. Medical-grade plastic without wires, metal, springs, or rubber bands gently move your teeth into place. Removable trays can be set aside for short periods allowing for normal eating and cleaning.  Call us today to start your smile journey with us.

Oral Condition Treatment

Conservative care for optimal oral, and overall, wellness

  • TMJ Treatment

    Dermal fillers are a natural protein purified for medicinal use. As experts in the face and mouth, dentists understand that pain and headaches come from many sources. We can use dermal fillers to provide lasting relaxation to the muscles that cause chronic headaches and TMJ pain. Most patients see results usually last three to four months, and the treatment can be reapplied as needed.

  • Sleep Apnea

    Researchers estimate that more than 12 million Americans have obstructive sleep apnea. Most cases are still undiagnosed and can contribute to diabetes, high blood pressure, hypertension, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, and traffic accidents related to drowsy driving. Dentistry serves a vital role in treating this silent epidemic. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends oral appliances as primary therapy for the treatment of mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea and for patients with severe sleep apnea who can't tolerate CPAP treatment.

  • Teeth Grinding

    If you're waking up with a sore jaw or headaches, you may be grinding your teeth at night. Teeth grinding is a subconscious habit that affects about 10% of the population. In many cases, the abrasive action occurs only during sleep and for only a few seconds at a time. Waking up with a sore jaw or a morning headache are common signs of nighttime grinding. Jaw muscles are, ounce for ounce, the strongest in the body, which means they can do a lot of unnecessary damage. A custom oral appliance can protect your excessive wear. 

Family

One stop dental care for the whole family

  • Sealant

    Sealants dramatically reduce the number of cavities that may develop during childhood. Deep grooves run into the center of the teeth on the chewing surface of the molars. If the grooves in permanent molars are sealed at a young age, the risk of decay developing on the chewing surfaces dramatically decreases. The sealant material fills in the grooves to create a smooth surface and make the biting surface easier for little ones to clean. The resin material flowed over the grooves is quickly sealed with a blue activating light. Within a few minutes, your child’s teeth are protected against cavities. Sealants last several years and may need to be repaired or replaced periodically. But research confirms a 90% reduction in tooth decay along the chewing surface in sealed molars.

  • Sports Mouthguards

    It’s estimated that over 20 million children take part in one after-school sport or another. With that amount of children engaging in sports and other activities like skiing, gymnastics, and martial arts, there is a higher chance of injury. Did you know that up to 20% of these injuries are due to fractured or otherwise damaged teeth? Our team can create a sports mouthguard for your child to protect their smile. After an impression of your child’s teeth is taken, they will fabricate a new mouthguard molded to custom-fit their unique smile.

This was one of the best experiences I’ve had with any medical/doctor/dentist apt. I really appreciate and value when you can feel seen and heard, and met with compassion and understanding by a doctor and staff. They value and connect with the patient, and are passionate about their line of work. This type of dentistry, biological dentistry, felt much more informative, proactive, and hands on, than the traditional dentist. The office itself is relaxing, clean, and stylish and feels very welcoming. Dr. Rabinovich is very kind, and knowledgeable and I left feeling empowered about my health. I’m excited to bring my family there for dental care as well.

We have had a great experience here so far. Everyone was incredibly friendly and competent and made my kids feel safe and secure during their visit! They were very patient with my daughter's sensory issues and took lots of time to really get to know our family, health history, and concerns. The dentist was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me connect several dots with my kids health and teeth! So happy so far!
