General Dentistry
We provide friendly, gentle care for all your family’s basic dental needs. Our experience with patients of all ages
helps us create a calm, comfortable environment for everyone.
Routine Prophylaxis (Cleaning) -
Routine professional cleaning is a key to optimal dental health. Many problems that occur could have been prevented with regular
cleanings. Dr. Steuterman performs a complete dental and periodontal examination after your cleaning in order to identify
dental problems before they become serious.
Diagnostic x-rays – Digital dental X-rays can
reveal dental decay before a dentist is able to detect it visually in a patient's mouth. Digital x-rays require much less
radiation than years ago. As a result, dental X-rays generally require much less radiation than their medical equivalents.
Our staff is fully trained and experienced so that your X-rays are performed safely.
Comprehensive Examination
– We pride ourselves on thorough and comfortable dental exams. We know what age specific issues to watch for
in different stages of our patient's lives.
With a comprehensive exam, we can identify dental decay and gum problems and also check for oral cancer and any oral signs
of medical diseases.
Composite or White Filings - Having cavities filled used to mean getting
unattractive metal fillings put in your mouth. But times have changed and so has the art and science of dental care. Our white
fillings are natural looking and long lasting. Our white fillings (for cosmetic use on upper/lower front teeth) are matched
to the original color of your teeth.
Crowns and Bridges - Advances in porcelain technology mean
that most dental crowns and bridgework can now look just like natural teeth. Dr. Steuterman can restore your smile with a
combination of crowns and bridges to support or replace lost teeth. Crowns cover the complete visible surface of your affected
tooth to add strength, durability and tooth stability, while returning your tooth to its natural shape and size. A bridge
(also known as a pontic) is fused between two porcelain crowns to fill the gaps left by the original missing tooth. The new
tooth is then anchored to the two porcelain crowns, renewing your smile.
Removable Full and Partial Dentures
–Computer assisted design and fabrication using natural teeth or implants for stability are the basis for effective
rehabilitation dental care. We have been using these modern solutions with many of our patients with astounding results.
