A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth that matches the look and function of a natural tooth. Implants are prescribed as a long-term solution for patients to replace teeth that are infected by decay and are in need of removal. Implant-supported dentures are an excellent option for denture patients who would prefer a more stable, comfortable and long-lasting alternative.

Dentures and partial dentures are removable appliances that serve to restore the look of your full smile and aid in balancing your bite if you have missing teeth. We work closely with a local dental lab to create the perfect denture that’s beautiful, functional and comfortable to wear.

If you experience pain while chewing or sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, getting a root canal may be your next step. A root canal is a simple procedure in which Dr. Green removes the infected pulp of a tooth affected by a large cavity, or deep crack. If a root canal is prescribed to treat your tooth, having the procedure will save your natural tooth which will allow you to eat your normal diet and maintain your natural smile.

Do you suffer from headaches or jaw soreness? It’s quite common for headaches to be caused by a misaligned bite. Dr. Green can perform a full analysis of your bite, and may suggest using a therapeutic device like a night guard to erase your pain. Our night guards, which are fabricated in a local dental lab located in South Portland, ME, are for night-time use and help patients with a history of clenching or grinding while asleep.
