Dental Examination
Digital X-rays offer many advantages over traditional imaging systems. Digital X-rays are easy to take and produce an image quickly for review. They are also considered safer for your smile and the environment. We are also able to educate you more about what is occurring with your smile, allowing you to see what we see during a dental exam. We generally suggest utilizing digital radiography in Bristol, Florida, at least once a year and as suggested by Drs. Laban and Monica Bontrager. If you would like to learn more about the many benefits of digital X-rays, we welcome you to contact our dental office today. Our team is knowledgeable and eager to help you feel confident in the care you receive at our office. We look forward to hearing from you and meeting your family.

Teeth Cleaning
We recommend bringing in your child for their first visit by their first birthday. This visit will focus on helping your child feel comfortable about visiting our dentists and creating a care plan for the teeth that will soon be growing in. We suggest having your childâ€™s first dental cleaning by the time they are three years old. We have more information available in our office about the growth of baby teeth, how to handle thumb sucking, how to promote a healthy smile in infants, and diet recommendations for children. We encourage you to call our dental office if you have any questions and if you would like more information. We are proud to serve your family and look forward to meeting you. We hope to hear from you soon.
Fluoride Treatment
In children, fluoride bonds with growing tooth enamel to strengthen it permanently. For adults, fluoride acts as a protective shield to stop decay from forming. When you and your family visit Bristol Dental Clinic, our dentists will provide fluoride treatment as part of each dental cleaning and exam. If necessary, we may also recommend certain fluoride-enriched products to use at home. No matter what form of fluoride will work for you, we are excited to help you achieve optimal oral health and spare no expense in helping you reach your goals. If you would like to learn more about fluoride in Bristol, Florida, we encourage you to call or visit our dental office today. We hope to hear from you soon!
Dental Sealants
At Bristol Dental Clinic, we believe preventing damage is just as important as treating and repairing existing conditions. As part of this ongoing effort to protect your smile from forces that may harm it, we are pleased to provide dental sealants in Bristol, Florida. Sealants are thin plastic coatings used on the chewing surfaces of your teeth to prevent decay and protect against bacteria and food particles. Your chewing surfaces, especially your pre-molars and molars, have deep grooves and ridges that are often hard to clean and can easily trap bacteria. Sealants act as a protective barrier that can be applied in just a couple of minutes per tooth.

Fillings
When decay or damage occurs to your tooth enamel, our team at Bristol Dental Clinic will likely recommend a dental filling. Dental fillings are a type of dental restoration used to fill in the space left on your tooth after decay has been removed. Completed in just one visit to our office, dental fillings are ideal for patients looking for an easy, versatile restoration. Dental fillings can be used to restore both the shape of your toothâ€™s surface and its structural integrity. Drs. Laban and Monica Bontrager offer two different types of dental fillings in Bristol, Florida, white fillings and amalgam fillings.
Veneers
Porcelain veneers are one of our most versatile cosmetic treatments at Bristol Dental Clinic. Bonded directly to the front of your teeth to form a more perfect smile, veneers are thin shells made of porcelain. Veneers are generally suggested by our dentists to repair breaks, chips, and fractures in teeth. They can also be used to change the size and shape of a tooth that is irregular or unusually short. Drs. Laban and Monica Bontrager will help you determine whether dental veneers are the right option for helping you achieve your smile goals.
Crowns
When the damage to your tooth requires more treatment than a filling but does not necessarily need a dental crown, an inlay or an onlay may be the ideal solution. Inlays and onlays are often referred to as indirect fillings. Similar to fillings, they restore the shape of your tooth after decay has been removed. However, unlike dental fillings, inlays and onlays are not shaped directly on your tooth. Rather, they are made from molds of your smile once decay has been removed, and then are permanently attached. In Bristol, Florida, inlays are used to cover a large portion of the inside of your toothâ€™s surface, while an onlay extends to repair a portion of the cusp, or pointed portion of the tooth.
Bridges
At Bristol Dental Clinic, our caring dental team understands that losing a tooth can be a disappointing and even traumatic experience. Not only can losing a tooth make you feel more embarrassed to smile, but it can also interfere with your ability to eat, chew, and speak properly. We are excited to offer multiple tooth replacement options at our office, including dental bridges. Dental bridges are a fixed (permanent) dental restoration ideal for replacing a single tooth or multiple teeth missing in a row.

Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is part of the field of dentistry known as endodontics. Endodontics studies and treats the inner portion of your tooth, which includes your root canal system, tooth nerves, and dental pulp. This delicate area is generally protected by your tooth enamel, but when decay or damage occurs, the inside of your tooth can become infected, causing sharp, throbbing pain and eventual tooth loss. Root canal treatment, often simply called a root canal, is designed to remove all signs of infection and restore your tooth to proper health.

Deep Cleaning
If you have gum disease in any of its stages, it is important to seek treatment immediately. Gum disease, if left untreated, can quickly lead to gum loss, tooth loss, and even bone loss. Drs. Laban and Monica Bontrager offer many forms of treatment for gum disease in Bristol, Florida, based on your individual needs and the severity of your case. Improved oral hygiene habits and medication are common for the first stages of gum disease, while scaling and root planing are generally used when the situation has advanced. Scaling and root planing are both deep cleaning methods to remove infected gum tissue and remove rough patches on your toothâ€™s surface where bacteria can linger. We will work together with you and your family to ensure we restore your entire smile to optimal health. If you feel you may need periodontal care, we invite you to contact us today. We are eager to help you in any way we can.

Dentures
At Bristol Dental Clinic, we are proud to specialize in dentures. In fact, we even have a denture laboratory on site, reducing the time you have to wait for your brilliant new smile. Dentures are a removable prosthetic device generally used to replace most or all of your teeth. Drs. Laban and Monica Bontrager offer both complete and partial dentures.

Braces
Having a straighter smile can play an important role in your self-confidence and your overall oral health. However, many of our patients cringe at the idea of wearing traditional braces with metal wires and brackets. Thanks to advances in modern dentistry, Bristol Dental Clinic is pleased to offer an attractive alternative known as ClearCorrectâ„¢. ClearCorrect is a clear braces system that uses aligners made of plastic that are worn comfortably over your teeth in order to straighten them. Each aligner is calibrated by our dentists to apply pressure to specific areas of your tooth until your entire smile is straight.

Teeth Whitening
One of our most popular cosmetic treatments is teeth whitening. Teeth whitening is the process by which we remove stains, discoloration, spots, and darkness from your tooth enamel. The reason it is so popular is that teeth whitening can provide dramatic results in as little as one visit to our dental office. Dr. Laban Bontrager and Dr. Monica Bontrager offer two different methods of professional teeth whitening, in-office whitening and a whitening system at home.
Cosmetic Dentistry
If you are unhappy with the way your smile looks, then Drs. Laban and Monica Bontrager may suggest cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry is the branch of dentistry that specializes in improving the overall appearance of your smile, whether you have experienced trauma or simply want to enhance the color, shape, or size of a tooth. We offer a wide variety of cosmetic treatments, all of which are considered safe to use. Generally, we use cosmetic dentistry in Bristol, Florida, to...
