Our Doctors will address all aspects of periodontal treatment, treating all forms of periodontal disease, tooth extractions, bone grafting, aesthetic gum plastic surgery and replacing your missing teeth with dental implants. They are skilled and pleased to offer laser periodontal surgery. The laser offers many benefits over traditional periodontal or gum surgeries. With the laser gum surgery techniques, they can reduce the total amount of treatment time, and more importantly eliminate the need for sutures and minimal to no post-operative pain. Most patients are able to return to work on the same day. In essence, this is the LASIK of gum surgery.
Ueno Center has the ability to perform all digital dentistry when it comes to implant placement. A 3-dimensional CBCT-scan will be taken in our office to show all anatomic structures in your mouth. From here, our Doctors will plan your implant placement on their 3-D implant software. In some cases, a surgical stent will be fabricated to perform computer-guided implant placement. Once the implants have healed, digital impressions taken with the Trios can be taken of your new implant. This digital impression eliminates having the normal "impression goop" in your mouth. This digital impression is then e-mailed to the top local labs for the fabrication of your new teeth!
For those patients who currently do not have any teeth or are missing multiple teeth, we can provide "Teeth in a day!." This is a 1 visit appointment where 4-6 implants are placed on either the upper or lower jaw and your treating surgeon, in conjunction with your restorative dentist and a local lab, will provide you with a new fixed set of teeth attached to the implants. There is no more taking your denture in and out of your mouth! Our Doctors will restore full function and esthetics to you in just one visit.
We also pride ourselves on our aesthetic gum grafts. When you have ugly recession defects in your mouth which expose your root structure, Dr. Ueno, Dr. Litch, Dr. Bui can repair your lost gum tissue with gum grafts to restore the natural look of your gums. This graft will cover your exposed roots, increase the attractiveness of your smile, and can even reduce cold sensitivity! The use of donor tissues is often recommended as this can reduce overall discomfort of taking tissue from the roof of your mouth.
You will also enjoy your interactions with our team as they enjoy establishing a friendly relationship with all of their patients. Their light-hearted demeanors can ease even the most nervous patient. Dr. Ueno enjoys his sports and food, but his staff jokes that he can and will talk about anything and everything. Dr. Litch enjoys great food and traveling and Dr. Bui enjoys outdoor sports and spending time with her kids. Our state of the art office affords the most up to date equipment set in a relaxing and patient friendly environment. The design of the office was built for optimal patient comfort and treatment. From our hospitality counter in the waiting room to our massage options in every dental chair, we provide simple amenities to make your visit more enjoyable. Cable television is available on every chair. This is a great way to catch up on TV shows and movies that you might have missed.
We look forward to treating you at Ueno Center! Read Less
