In their entirety, braces work by applying continuous pressure over a period of time to slowly move teeth in a specific direction. As the teeth move, the bone changes shape as pressure is applied.

Humber Heights Dental offers both Invisalign and SureCure aligners.

With Invisalign, Dr. Holta will create a unique, digital treatment plan that maps out the exact movements of your teeth. Your Invisalign clear aligners are then designed to apply the right amount of force to the right place at the right time based on your plan. Dr. Holta will be with you every step of the way to monitor your progress and ensure your aligners fit correctly.

SureCure aligners are clear and custom made to fit your teeth. This means the aligners are practically unseen and fit securely on your teeth. Your aligners apply a small amount of force to gradually move your teeth closer and closer to their final position. The amount of movement your teeth will see is mapped out by your treatment plan created by Dr. Holta.

Preventive orthodontics provides dental professionals with a way to identify and intercept teeth problems in children, that when caught early enough, help to avoid more aggressive and costlier treatment later on.

As your child grows, certain problems may become apparent during their regular examination at the dentist. These tooth problems may include, but are not limited to, crowding or too much space between teeth, overbite, underbite, extra teeth, missing teeth, jaw abnormalities, extracted teeth, and protruding teeth.

Dental implants are small screws made out of titanium to replace missing teeth. Titanium is the only metal we know that the body accepts and allows bone to grow in and around it. By placing an implant in the jawbone (where the natural tooth root was), Dr. Davidson can anchor replacement teeth to your full chewing ability or secure your loose dentures. Restoring comfort, function, aesthetics and preserving the natural anatomy are the primary treatment goals in replacing missing teeth with dental implants.

In-office teeth whitening done at Humber Heights Dental can get teeth brighter faster. The bleaching solution is much stronger than at-home kits. Also, the combination of heat and light will be used to speed and intensify the whitening process. We use a professional SD-600 Light to get you the best results. The procedure is approximately an hour long where teeth generally get three to eight shades brighter.

A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth. Composites are also used for cosmetic improvements of the smile by changing the color of the teeth or reshaping disfigured teeth.
