Dental Examination
Four out of five people have periodontal disease and don’t know it! Most people are not aware of it because the disease is usually painless in the early stages. Unlike tooth decay, which often causes discomfort, it is possible to have periodontal disease without noticeable symptoms. Having regular dental check-ups and periodontal examinations are very important and will help detect if periodontal problems exist.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.

Teeth Cleaning
When your periodontal disease is advanced, your gums will have receded from your teeth in 6 to 9-millimeter pockets. To remove the buildup with the laser in these areas, Dr. Ogata will focus the laser underneath the pockets, removing the build-up material. Depending upon the severity of your condition, Dr. Ogata may follow up the treatment with further teeth cleaning and an antimicrobial rinse. With laser-assisted periodontal therapy, patients do not have to fear invasive dental procedures in order to treat the effects of gum disease.
Fluoride Treatment

Fillings
Although studies indicate that there are no measurable health risks to patients who have silver fillings, we do know that mercury is a toxic material when we are exposed at high, unsafe levels. For instance, we have been warned to limit the consumption of certain types of fish that carry high levels of mercury in them. However, with respect to amalgam fillings, the ADA maintains that when the mercury combines with the other components of the filling, it becomes an inactive substance that is safe.
Resin Composite
Inlays/Onlays - These restorations are custom made fillings. They can be made of composite resin, porcelain or gold and are made by a dental laboratory and placed by a dentist. Inlays/
Veneers
Sometimes beautiful smiles are not born but created. For patients who are concerned that their teeth are misshaped, heavily stained, or slightly misaligned, treatment with porcelain veneers can help transform your smile
Crowns
Previously, if you needed a crown or other dental restoration in Kahului, you would need to make between two to three trips to Dr. Ogata's dental office so he could take a mold of your tooth and send the mold to a dental laboratory. You would then need to return for a second appointment so Dr. Ogata could place the crown to finish treatment. By using CEREC, Dr. Ogata's Kahului and Maui patients only need as much as an extended lunch break to have their restoration created and placed.
Bridges
An estimated 69 percent of Americans ages 35 to 44 have lost at least one permanent tooth, according to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons. If you have a missing or highly decayed tooth that will eventually need extraction, a dental implant is an aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional replacement methods, such as a fixed bridge or partial denture. With 30 years of experience in the dental field and imaging technology such as digital X-rays and intraoral cameras, Dr. Ogata can create dental implant restorations that look and feel as natural as your surrounding teeth.
Dental Bonding
Restorative Dentistry
Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics (CEREC) is a restorative dentistry tool that makes a crown, veneer, inlay or onlay in less than an hour -- a practice that used to take weeks. At Dr. Lance Ogata’s dental office, Kahului and Maui patients in need of restorative dental care can now get same-day treatment. Dr. Ogata invested in CEREC technology for his dentist office as a means to reduce waiting times and enhance patient's smiles faster than ever before.

Root Canal Treatment

Periodontal Surgery
In addition to being less invasive, laser therapy at Dr. Ogata's Kahului dentist office actually stimulates the gum tissue to heal on its own. In traditional periodontal surgery, sutures are used to make the gums tighten around the teeth, which is uncomfortable for most patients.
Deep Cleaning

Dentures
– Brush at least twice a day with an ADA approved fluoride toothpaste and toothbrush. Floss daily to remove food debris and plaque from in between the teeth and under the gumline. Brush or use a tongue scraper to clean the tongue and reach the back areas. Replace your toothbrush every 2 to 3 months. If you wear dentures or removable bridges, clean them thoroughly and place them back in your mouth in the morning.

Dental Implants
Your dental implant includes a prosthetic tooth root – When you’re missing a whole tooth, the bone density in your jaw suffers without stimulation from a tooth root. A dental implant includes a titanium rod that acts as a fax tooth root, which promotes healthy jaw bone density.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Aloha! My name is Elysa and I have been with Dr. Ogata since Nov 2017. I have been in the dental field since 2007 starting out at the Maui Oral Health center and then furthering my career in private dental offices, oral surgery and now here at Smile Hawaii. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my other half Stephen, our 2 dogs, our cat and Jackson Chameleons. I also love going to Alaska to go fishing in the summer and cooking!
Tooth Extractions

Orthodontics
Less visible and more effective brackets and wires are making straightening teeth with orthodontics much more appealing to adult patients. Also, in some cases, teeth may be straightened with custom-made, clear, removable aligners that require no braces.
Invisalign Orthodontics
To help plan treatment, Dr. Ogata will take an impression of your teeth and use an Invisalign® computer program to generate a three-dimensional image of how your teeth will look post-treatment. This allows you to make the most informed decision about whether Invisalign® is the right choice for you.
Braces
Near-invisibility: The tray’s clear nature means they will not be visible to most people and are considerably less visible than metal braces.

Teeth Whitening
Custom Whitening - Custom-fitted whitening trays with gel kits. Whiten and brighten your smile at home, simple, easy and fast results!
Cosmetic Dentistry
Your smile is an important aspect of your physical appearance – one that cannot be fixed with makeup or concealed with clothing. How healthy your teeth are on the inside and out can convey a message of confidence to the rest of the world. However, if your smile makes you feel self-conscious, cosmetic dentistry procedures at the Kahului cosmetic dental office of Lance Ogata, DDS, can help to restore your smile with confidence.
