Routine Exams: Regular dental cleanings, X-rays, and exams are offered in a relaxed environment, with a recommendation for patients to be seen every six months.
Children's Dentistry: Dr. Hanser is known for her excellent chair-side manner with children, helping even the most introverted child feel comfortable.
Cosmetic Dentistry: This includes services aimed at improving the aesthetics of a patient's smile, such as bleaching (teeth whitening), bonding, veneers, and crowns to fix chipped, uneven, or discolored teeth.
Fillings and Extractions: They offer both composite (tooth-colored) and silver fillings for decayed or damaged teeth. Extractions are performed with local anesthetic when necessary.
Implants: Dr. Hanser restores implants with crowns after the implant body has been placed by a specialist.
Crowns and Bridges: Crowns are used to fix broken teeth or other severe dental problems, designed to look and feel like natural teeth. Bridges are fixed restorations that replace missing teeth.
Dentures and Partials: Hanser Dental provides removable dentures and partials to replace missing teeth, including Duraflex® Flexible Partials, which are known for being flexible, comfortable, and durable.
Night Guards: These are custom-made appliances to prevent damage from teeth grinding and clenching during sleep, which can also reduce stress on muscles and the TMJ area. The clinic also offers NTI night guards, approved by the FDA for treating migraine headaches.
Sleep Apnea & Snoring Appliances: They offer the TAP® 3 device, which holds the lower jaw in a forward position to prevent airway collapse and reduce snoring or treat sleep apnea.
