Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry techniques can relieve dental anxiety and give patients a more relaxed experience. Dr. Wu’s practice is the only one in Coronado that offers IV sedation, which can be particularly useful for patients with severe dental anxiety.
Dental Implants
Dental implants offer patients who have missing teeth a method of replacing what has been lost with results that are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth in almost every way. Unlike traditional dentures, dental implants are not oral appliances that require pastes or other dental adhesives to remain in place. In fact, a dental implant is composed of a titanium post designed to fuse to the jawbone and serve as an artificial tooth root. Once this has occurred, a custom dental crown is secured to the post to create a new tooth that can provide significantly improved dental function while enhancing smile aesthetics. Plus, dental implants are designed to produce potentially lifelong results, and require no additional maintenance other than regular brushing and flossing. These procedures can be performed for patients with a single missing tooth, or multiple missing teeth.
