Dental Examination
Regular dental exams prove vital in preventing decay and periodontal disease. Together we can keep minor issues from becoming major procedures.

Teeth Cleaning
A focus on dental health helps you maintain the highest standard of overall health while limiting dental expenditures. When you partner with Dr. Lasley and his team, you’re making an investment that will help protect your smile well into the future. At home, prevention includes brushing and flossing twice daily. But there are other oral hygiene methods that can benefit your unique dental needs. You might be surprised to learn that a certain toothpaste, mouthwash, or specialized toothpick will serve you best and make all the difference in your efforts. Our team can help customize solutions that compliment your daily oral hygiene, resulting in a world of difference in your smile. Your diet also plays a critical role in your oral health as well. Acidic foods and carbonated drinks can accelerate deterioration of your teeth, and then there are certain foods that promote the health of your supporting jawbone and gums. Our team at Carey V. Lasley, DDS believes in combining your efforts and ours for optimum health. And of course, regular dental exams and cleanings are vital in preventing decay and gum disease on top of what you’re already doing at home. Together we can prevent minor issues from becoming major ones. New research shows that your overall health is very closely tied to your dental health. Our staff would love to educate you more about this connection.
Dental Sealants
This is used to fill in narrow grooves in a tooth that cannot be adequately cleaned by brushing. In some cases, the tooth structure has fine grooves or pits which accumulate plaque, not because the person doesn’t brush, but because they’re too narrow to allow even one bristle into them. These will develop cavities over time, and you don’t want that. So the dentist will brush on a coating that seals the grooves and pits, making it possible to brush off all the plaque and keep your teeth healthy.

Fillings
Resin Composite
Bonding involves adhering composite resin material that is color matched to the front of the tooth. This is done to repair damage done by decay, to alter the alignment of a tooth, close gaps between teeth, or for cosmetic purposes. First, the surface of the tooth is roughened in order to accept the bonding. A gel is applied to micro etch the tooth surface, and a primer/bond agent is applied so the material adheres to the surface. Then the material itself is placed on the tooth and hardened with intense light. The composite resin material is shaped and polished to get a lustrous finish.
Veneers
Veneers are thin porcelain restorations that are bonded to your teeth, much like a false nail. These can change the shape, size, and color of your teeth to create that perfect smile. These restorations are beautiful and look extremely life-like. Only you and your dentist will know they are there.
Crowns
Modern crown and bridge is done using a digital scanner which creates a 3-D digital model that is used to fabricate the restoration. This system is much faster and extremely accurate. We would personally not recommend having a crown done that was not digitally scanned…period.
Bridges
This new technology has revolutionized dentistry. Crowns and bridges are no longer made using messy impression materials which can incorporate errors and distortions into the process.
Dental Bonding

Root Canal Treatment
Crowns are full coverage restorations that are used to cover a tooth that is likely to break, or is too broken down to be restored with a filling. They are most commonly done after root canal treatment, or when a large filling wears out. The larger the hole made by a cavity that has to be treated, the more likely a crown will be needed. Even after a filling is put in a large cavity, a tooth is more likely to break. Keep in mind that the jaw muscles are the strongest in the human body. Teeth are subjected to tremendous pressures. Crowns ride over the weakened tooth, providing strength and protecting the tooth against breakage. A broken or cracked tooth is a far more serious matter and much more difficult to treat. Crowns prevent this, as well as making for a nice smile.

Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
This is where the dentist gently shapes the excess tissue that surrounds the front of your tooth so that the tooth proportions are even and the smile line is aesthetically pleasing.
Deep Cleaning
The gums, ligaments, and bone around the teeth form the foundation for ones teeth. All structures are also referred to as the periodontium. When the periodontium is not healthy, it jeopardizes the teeth just as a bad foundation would threaten the stability of a house. Signs of unhealthy periodontium (gum disease) may be as follows: gums that are red and bleed easily, persistent bad breath, gums that are pulled away from the tooth, loose teeth, and changes in the position or bite of the teeth. Any of these signs may mean something is wrong. With the proper care, however, it may be possible to return them to a healthy state. This is where appropriate gum treatments come in. If you’re having a problem, come in and see us so we can take care of it right away. The treatment usually involves a deep cleaning or root planing done under a local anesthetic, along with local antibiotic agents. If the gum disease gets too severe it may need to be treated through surgery or extraction. This is why it is important to get it treated at the first sign of a problem.

Dentures
There are different types of dentures, but they share their common function. They replace teeth that have become loose or been lost due to bone loss. When bone loss around the roots of teeth is great enough to loosen them or let them fall out, it’s time for dentures. Relax. No one enjoys losing their natural teeth, but you can still eat and talk regularly.

Dental Implants
A dental implant is an option to replace a missing tooth. In this procedure, a small titanium shaft is surgically implanted into the bone and allowed to set. The bone grows around it forming a tight connection, which additionally slows or stops the bone loss that occurs when the root of a natural tooth is missing. Once the implant is firmly set in the mouth, the dentist then works to attach the replacement tooth onto the top of the shaft. This permanent solution has the advantages over bridge work that it does not stress the surrounding teeth for support, and, should the tooth wear out, another can simply be replaced on the shaft.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Despite your best efforts, teeth sometimes need to be extracted to protect your overall health. After discussing all other possible treatments, and you’ve decided on extraction, we’ll take every step to help you. Your well-being is our top priority in any treatment decision. Some patients prefer sedation to help with oral surgery, and we can include medicated options into your plan. In any case, we take every measure to ensure even minor surgical procedures as comfortable and as stress-free as possible.
Tooth Extractions

Invisalign Orthodontics
An alternative to wire braces that uses transparent, incremental aligners to adjust teeth. It is manufactured by Align Technology, a multinational medical device company headquartered in San Jose, California. The Invisalign treatment process involves taking a scan of the patient’s teeth in order to create a computerized model. Using the doctor’s treatment plan, the computer model creates stages between the current and desired teeth positions that are used to create molds for individual aligners.
Braces
This process is faster and more gentle on your teeth than traditional braces. No more uncomfortable wires, brackets, or bands!!!

Teeth Whitening
We offer a convient take home whitening system. The appointment to take the impressions is short and you will have your trays for touch up whenever you feel the need.
Cosmetic Dentistry
There have been extraordinary advances in dental research and techniques over the past several decades. Advances have been made in areas such as anesthesia, cosmetic dentistry, infection prevention and preventive care.

Dr. Lasley is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, and the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. He is very active in the local schools and is committed to his own continued education.
