Fillings

Our comprehensive filling examination process involves meticulous checks for decay, cavities, and the root cause of sensitivity. Utilizing advanced technology, such as state-of-the-art imaging equipment, we ensure the detection of even the tiniest cavities, tailoring a personalized treatment plan to meet your specific needs.

In addition to a broad spectrum of dental services, including dental fillings, our team engages in thorough discussions about various materials, considering factors like durability and cost to determine the optimal treatment plan for you. With the convenience of most fillings being completed in a single appointment, we strive to make your dental care easily accessible. Moreover, if you encounter any discomfort or anxiety during the procedure, we are happy to explore sedation options to ensure your utmost comfort.

TMJ/TMD Therapy

The temporomandibular joint, or TMJ, plays a vital role in facilitating proper chewing, but issues like teeth grinding, jaw clenching, and TMJ dysfunction can lead to various problems. At Tarpon Shores Dental, your local TMJ specialist, we address concerns such as teeth grinding, jaw clenching, and temporomandibular joint dysfunction, offering effective solutions for symptoms like dental migraines, jaw pain, and difficulty opening the mouth.

Tooth Extractions

When it comes to tooth extractions in your vicinity, Tarpon Shores Dental ensures virtually painless procedures through the utilization of modern digital technology and sedation techniques.

There are various reasons for tooth extractions, including a tooth that’s irreparably broken or cracked, severe gum disease weakening tooth roots, the spread of extensive tooth decay, overcrowded dentition, and impacted wisdom teeth. In our dental office in Sarasota, Venice, and Englewood, FL, we employ local anesthetic during the extraction, ensuring a pain-free experience for you.

For more complex extractions, your oral surgeon at Tarpon Shores Dental may utilize general anesthesia. Whether performed by a general dentist or an oral surgeon, the extraction process is designed to be smooth and simple, with post-extraction care and healing proceeding seamlessly.
