Dr. Taylor’s dental implant procedure is a great option for replacing missing teeth, improving chewing ability, eliminating bridges, and replacing dentures.

Several implants may provide a base for a series of artificial teeth known as a fixed bridge. Implants can even be used to secure a full set of removable dentures for people who have no remaining natural teeth.

Crowns and Bridges To Protect Your Teeth in Gainesville

Dr. Taylor can protect and keep badly decayed or fractured teeth while maintaining a beautiful smile with crowns and bridges. Made to perfectly match the shape and shade of your other teeth, they’re durable, strong, and undetectable.

Crowns should be placed before the tooth is so decayed that it may fracture. This can often help prevent the expense of root canal therapy in the future. If a tooth is too damaged to have a crown applied, a porcelain bridge may be a good alternative.

Let Dr. Taylor Improve Your Smile With Cosmetic Bonding

Composite resin is a white, tooth-colored material that Dr. Taylor can shade to match your teeth. This material can give you a low-cost improvement in your smile.

Dr. Taylor Protects Gums With Periodontal Therapy

Gum disease is treated by carefully removing the bacteria and substances that form in the pockets around the teeth. The removal of this material occurs on a microscopic level and requires great skill. Our dental team at Taylor Dentistry has advanced training and experience to effectively remove all of the bacteria and will treat you with care and precision.

Have a Stress-Free Experience At Taylor Dentistry

Dr. Taylor can reduce stress and anxiety associated with dental treatment with Anxiolysis. Anxiolysis makes use of a prescription medication that induces a drowsy, relaxed feeling. This is an oral medication that may be used in conjunction with nitrous oxide to enhance the effect safely. During Anxiolysis, a patient’s vitals are constantly monitored.

Due to the relaxing effects of the treatment, a friend or family member must drive the patient to and from the office.

Dr. Taylor Will Transform Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are very thin porcelain pieces that are custom made to adhere directly to the front of teeth without grinding or shaving. Taylor Dentistry can transform your smile without drilling on your natural teeth!

In the hands of a highly skilled dentist, porcelain veneers can provide you with an incredibly natural, beautiful smile. They are virtually undetectable and can dramatically improve your appearance. They are durable and long-lasting when compared to other cosmetic treatments.

Smile Whitening With Gainesville’s Most Loved Dentist

Newly married couple

Many everyday things like coffee, tea, and wine can significantly dull teeth. Smile-whitening enables Taylor Dentistry to significantly brighten your smile for that dazzling white smile you deserve.

Plastic whitening trays will be made from models of your teeth. You will then place a special whitening gel in each tray and wear the trays in your mouth for several hours per day (many patients wear their trays after dinner and before bed). A significant change in tooth color is usually seen in just four to six weeks.

Reduce Radiation With Taylor Dentistry’s Digital X-Rays
