Dental Examination
X-rays
Digital radiography (x-rays) provide our dentists with high-definition images of the underlying structures of patients’ teeth. Traditional x-rays produced lower quality images and exposed patients to higher levels of radiation. Additionally, these x-rays had to be developed by hand, exposing our team to hazardous chemicals, the physical images had to be stored and transported, and traditional x-rays could only be viewed on a specialized light board. Digital x-rays are better quality images, allowing our team to more accurately diagnose oral health issues in earlier stages. These images are instantly available for viewing on our chairside computer monitors, and they can be transferred and stored conveniently in this digital format for quick, easy access.
Oral Cancer Screening
According to research conducted by the Oral Cancer Foundation, early diagnosis is the best way to decrease the annual number of oral cancer related deaths. With this disease claiming the life of one person each our on average in the US alone, it’s essential that dentists and physicians do their part to screen for early warning signs of this disease. We use the Identafi oral cancer screening system to diagnose oral cancer in the earliest stages increasing patients’ odds of making a full recovery.

Teeth Cleaning
At Tomko Dental Associates, we create personalized dental care plans with a focus on prevention. During regular dental checkups and teeth cleanings, we’ll examine your smile for early warning signs of oral health concerns like gum disease, tooth decay, TMJ dysfunction, and oral cancer. Then, we partner with you to create a custom oral health care plan to ensure you achieve and maintain your optimal level of oral health.
Fluoride Treatment
Ingested fluoride found in water and other sources is essential to the development of strong, healthy tooth enamel, but once teeth erupt from the gum line, topical fluoride is necessary to keep these teeth strong and healthy. For most patients, adequate fluoride is present in toothpastes and mouthwashes, but for young patients who are still developing their oral hygiene routines and adults who are prone to decay, we may recommend professional topical fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and reduce the risk for tooth decay.

Fillings
Resin Composite
Tooth-colored fillings are fast becoming the standard in repair for minor chips, cracks, and tooth decay, but patients are often surprised to hear it’s not just because they look more natural. Traditionally, mild dental damage was repaired using a silver-colored amalgam material. In addition to being noticeable within the smile line, these fillings are wedged in place by a series of notches in teeth. Over time, this can lead to bacteria being trapped between the tooth and the filling causing additional decay. Amalgam also expands and contracts when exposed to temperature changes, which may damage the tooth. Composite resin filling materials are applied directly to the tooth in a malleable form, allowing the filling to seep into even the smallest crevices and grooves in smiles forming a solid bond and blending into the natural smile line.
Veneers
Veneers are thin sheaths of dental porcelain that are attached to the front surfaces of teeth to conceal dental chips, cracks, stains, and gaps. Porcelain veneers allow our team to instantly transform damaged teeth into flawless smiles. Patients interested in veneers should plan to visit our office two times. During an initial appointment, we prepare teeth by removing a small amount of surface enamel. This preparation allows the veneer to lay flat within the natural smile line. Then, we capture bite impressions that are used by our dental lab to craft custom veneers. Before patients leave, we place a temporary veneer to protect the prepared teeth and let patients get used to the look and feel of their veneer. Once we receive the custom porcelain veneer from the dental lab, patients return to our office where we’ll exchange the temporary for the permanent veneer.
Crowns
Dr. Lorri Tomko was one of the first dental practitioners in the area to offer same day dentistry using the CEREC system, and she has used this system since 1999. With years of experience, Dr. Tomko offers a superior level restoration with CEREC crowns, bridges, and other restorations. If you’re interested in finding out more about CEREC, keep reading or contact Tomko Dental Associates.
Bridges
When a simple filling just won’t do for tooth decay or injury, a dental crown or fixed bridge from your dentist in Allentown may provide the best solution. Dental crowns restore the strength of significantly decayed teeth, while dental bridges replace one, two, or several consecutively missing teeth. A crown or bridge can last for many years with proper maintenance.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding, sometimes referred to as cosmetic bonding or direct bonding, is a treatment that repairs or conceals any number of cosmetic flaws. Using the same tooth-colored composite resin material we use for fillings, we can fill in chips, cracks, and gaps, and conceal stains and other cosmetic flaws. For those patients with minimal damage, dental bonding may be an affordable alternative to porcelain veneers that can be completed in a single visiting. The process is simple. We apply the malleable composite resin material to the tooth, shape it in position, and use a curing light to harden the material.
Restorative Dentistry
Despite best efforts, tooth decay, dental trauma, and other oral health issues still arise. When damage occurs, we take time to carefully explain patients’ treatment options and partner with them to create a custom treatment plan that repairs damaged smiles while maintaining healthy dental structures. When you experience dental damage or decay, don’t wait for you next six month checkup to get in touch. Call our office right away. In many cases, early intervention will make it possible for our team to provide more conservative treatment options.

Root Canal Treatment
Most patients think root canals are painful, but actually, these tooth saving dental restorations relieve toothache pain and dental sensitivity. We need to perform root canal therapy to preserve a natural tooth following advanced decay or damage. At Tomko Dental Associates, our Allentown dentist and team offer safe, effective root canal therapy to renew oral health and relieve toothache pain. If you believe you’re suffering from root canal therapy, contact us for an emergency dentistry appointment. We’ll get to work right away relieving pain and restoring your smile.

Dentures
Repairing damaged teeth right away is essential to ensure you can receive a conservative treatment. The longer your tooth remains damaged, the more severe the oral health concern becomes. Our team works hard to help patients maintain their healthiest smiles, but when you do not to repair dental damage, we can provide a wide range of restorative solutions including fillings, dental crowns, and dentures.

Do you have questions about dental implants? If so, then we’ve got answers. Keep reading to learn more about the cost of dental implants in Allentown, how long they take, whether or not you are a good candidate for this tooth replacement option, and much more in our handy FAQ.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Tooth Extractions
At Tomko Dental Associates, we consider it our number one job to help our patients preserve their natural teeth for as long as possible. However, despite our best efforts, sometimes the best course of treatment may involve removing a tooth. We go above and beyond to make sure our patients are always comfortable while performing dental extractions in Allentown, and should you ever need one, you can trust that we’ll handle it with the utmost care.

Orthodontics
Invisalign Orthodontics
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners that are worn over the teeth. The aligners are created in a series using impressions of your mouth. With a custom-fit, you enjoy a less noticeable and comfortable treatment. There are no protracting wires or brackets as the aligners are smooth.
Braces
Traditional braces use metal brackets and wires to pull the teeth into their correct position. Although they are effective and several advancements have been made to make them less noticeable, they are still highly visible. Now, you do not have to let metal wires and brackets further impact your self-esteem.

Teeth Whitening
A flawless smile can improve your confidence in personal and professional interactions, but very few people are actually born with a gorgeous smile. Instead, we can help you create the picture-perfect smile of your dreams with a personalized cosmetic dentistry plan that can utilize any number of treatments, including teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and Invisalign.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry can be any procedure that improves the appearance of patients’ smiles, and at Tomko Dental Associates, we take the cosmetic effects of every treatment into consideration. If you’re unhappy with any aspect of your smile, our team offers a variety of cosmetic solutions to perfect even the most flawed smiles. Contact our Allentown dental team to find out more or schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation. We welcome patients from nearby Breinigsville and other communities.
