Dental Examination

Fillings
Resin Composite
Composite bonding is an excellent option for many patients. We apply a tooth-colored composite resin to your tooth or teeth to repair damage, such as a chip or crack. It can also be used to close minor gaps or to reshape teeth. Sometimes a patient comes to us thinking that they want veneers and then discover that tooth bonding is an option that can create similar results while being more conservative and less expensive.
Gold Restorations
Dr. Swanson is a graduate of the world-renowned Kois Center, which trains dentists in advanced restorative techniques. Dr. Swanson began taking courses there right after he graduated from medical school in 1987 (at that time, it was called Creating Restorative Excellence). Today, he is one of their esteemed Mentors. Additionally, just out of dental school, Dr. Swanson began participating in RV Tucker Cast Gold Study Clubs. He spent five years as the director of Tucker Institute as well. This organization fosters dental study clubs around the world teaching and encouraging clinical excellence along with advanced conservative gold restoration techniques.
Veneers
For a full smile makeover, many patients choose dental veneers, which are custom-made tooth-colored covers that adhere to the front of your teeth. They can change the shape, size, color, or length, or can transform your smile. We use a composite material at our office. Unlike porcelain veneers, which must be replaced if they chip, a composite veneer can be repaired.
Crowns
As far as a particular memory, the one that comes to mind was a few years ago. My brother and his wife, Mary, were visiting us for the first time in 11 years from Michigan and she had a crown come off and needed a dentist. It happened on a Friday or a Saturday, so I remember you had to squeeze and work her in. I appreciated the way you were so accommodating and helpful. Mary can be difficult and critical and I can see her as a hard-to-please patient. You and your staff were awesome. She was impressed with you and your office and all the latest and greatest details you have. It relieved me to know that she was in your care and that it all added to their smooth visit with us.
Bridges
When a simple filling can’t fix your teeth, crowns and bridges are often used to replace larger amounts of missing tooth structure and restore the function of your bite. They are also preventative in nature, because they can prevent further fracturing of your teeth. Additionally, they can improve the appearance of your smile.

Restorative Dentistry

Root Canal Treatment
When a tooth is cracked or has a deep cavity, bacteria can enter the pulp tissue and germs can cause an infection inside the tooth. When this is left untreated, an abscess may form, and disease can spread into your nerves and bone structure. A root canal treatment can often save your tooth so that it doesn’t have to be removed. During the procedure, the affected tissue is removed, the root canal is carefully cleaned, and then the space is filled and sealed. We perform some root canals here in our office. For more extensive cases, we will refer you to a trusted local endodontist who specializes in complex cases involving the nerves of the teeth.

Dental Implants
Following graduation from dental school, I decided to seek further training, focused toward my interest in surgical procedures, specifically dental implants. This desire to be able to provide the best care for my patients took me to the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Hospital. Here I had the incredibly rewarding experience of providing state of the art, comprehensive dental care for our veterans.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Dr. Swanson takes care of cases that involve full-mouth reconstruction, often combining many of the aforementioned treatments and techniques. If extensive oral surgery is needed, we will collaborate with a trusted oral surgeon and provide you with a referral to ensure that you are getting the highest quality of care at our office and theirs. The end goal is to give you back a healthy, fully functioning bite that looks beautiful when you smile.
Maxillofacial Surgery

Invisalign Orthodontics
If you want to straighten your teeth or correct bite irregularities but you don’t want traditional wire braces, Invisalign braces are a great alternative that we offer. With Invisalign, you wear a series of clear, plastic aligners that move your teeth into position over time. They are often referred to as “invisible braces.”
Braces
Often referred to as “invisible braces," Invisalign is a great alternative to traditional wire braces. Using clear aligners, Invisalign can straighten crowded, crooked, or gapped teeth, and it does so typically faster than traditional braces at a similar or lesser cost. We offer Invisalign here at our office.

Teeth Whitening
We provide in-office teeth whitening with Phillips Zoom. This involves a teeth whitening gel and an in-office treatment. You will see results after one treatment. We also offer custom-made bleaching trays that you can use at home, which will brighten your smile over time.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Dr. Swanson is a regular contributor to dental and medical journals on topics of reconstructive and cosmetic dentistry. He enjoys sharing his experience, knowledge, techniques, and expertise in order to help other dentists achieve high levels of care.
