Oral Cancer Screening

Teeth Cleaning
Regular dental checkups and teeth cleanings are important if you want to maintain consistently good oral health. Designed to serve as the starting point for the early detection of cavities and other dental issues, our team uses advanced imaging and techniques to thoroughly examine your mouth as well as clean your teeth and gums to eliminate the possibility of gum disease and decay. We will also provide helpful tips to ensure that you keep your smile as healthy as possible in between appointments.
Fluoride Treatment
Dental Sealants
Adults can often experience difficulty when cleaning teeth toward the back of the mouth, but it is often children who have the hardest time effectively reaching this area. Because molars and premolars have deep pits and grooves, they can easily trap bacteria and food debris, resulting in cavities over time. With dental sealants, we can apply a tooth-colored coating over the chewing surfaces, creating a barrier to prevent bacteria from penetrating the enamel. In no time at all, this process can be completed in-house and can last up to 10 years with proper care.

Fillings
Resin Composite
When a cavity forms, treatment must be administered sooner rather than later. The reason is that decay can spread, resulting in further damage to the tooth structure that requires more invasive treatment. To avoid the need for a dental crown, our team can apply a tooth-colored filling using composite resin that is matched to your enamel. Not only does this create a well-protected tooth, but it also blends in to ensure a seamless smile.
Veneers
A beautiful smile can be a crucial asset for your career and your social life, but many people are too shy to show their teeth due to flaws like cracks, chips, stains, or gaps. Fortunately, your cosmetic dentist has a way to fix chipped teeth and transform your smile into a more beautiful state. Blue Back Dental in West Hartford can provide patients with high-quality veneers that can cover up surface damage or reshape a smile that has gaps, minor misalignments, or misshapen teeth. Contact our office to learn more about what veneers can do for you!
Crowns
Our Doctor will begin by administering local anesthesia to numb your mouth and eliminate the potential for any pain throughout the procedure. Once the tooth is isolated with a dental dam, they will make an opening in the crown of your tooth and begin to clear out any decayed or damaged tissue. Carefully clearing out the canals and removing the affected pulp, they will then fill the tooth with a malleable substance known as gutta-percha.
Bridges
Dental bridges have been around for decades helping individuals who are missing multiple consecutive teeth. Created using two dental crowns and artificial teeth (pontics), these restorations fill in the gap while looking completely natural. Placed over healthy nearby teeth that serve as anchors, the remaining pontics rest on top of the gums to restore someone’s ability to chew while preventing the remaining teeth from shifting.
Dental Bonding
How We Treat Chipped Teeth: Cosmetic dental bonding is one of the quickest and most affordable solutions. However, if the damage is more substantial, a veneer may be a better option. Don’t worry – we will review each of these at your appointment so you can feel confident deciding which is best for you.
Restorative Dentistry
Living with damaged or decayed teeth can leave you feeling embarrassed and frustrated. Eating certain foods may become difficult, and the loss of self-esteem might cause you to skip out on fun social gatherings. At Blue Back Dental, we can deliver high-quality restorations in all shapes and sizes. By customizing your treatment, we will not only repair your smile but also boost your confidence. Call us to find out how we can help you take the next step toward a better smile with restorative dentistry in West Hartford and Avon.

Root Canal Treatment
At Blue Back Dental, we are pleased to have a certified endodontist, as part of our team. Their years of experience and specialty training make them capable of performing even the most complex root canals. When damage or severe decay reaches the inner layer of a tooth, immense pain can occur, but fortunately, our doctor can implement a safe and effective strategy - root canal treatment in West Hartford and Avon - to relieve discomfort and save the tooth from extraction.

Deep Cleaning

Dentures
That isn't the case — if you live near West Hartford, CT, dentures from Blue Back Dental can help you regain your smile! Dentures are the easiest and most affordable method of replacing all of your teeth at once, giving you back the confidence you may have been missing. Make an appointment with us today and we'll let you know what this treatment can do for you!
Overdentures
An implant overdenture typically requires about four dental implant posts to support the new row of teeth. This is snapped in during the day and removed at night. We can fabricate these to rebuild your smile, but we can also suggest a hybrid prosthesis, also known as All-On-4 or All-On-6, which uses the dental implants as anchors for a more natural feeling teeth replacement that is screwed in permanently.

Dental Implants
An incomplete smile no longer has to be the reality. Instead, you can embrace and enjoy what life has to offer thanks to customized prosthetics like dental implants. At Blue Back Dental, we are pleased to have a certified periodontist on staff. Their skill and expertise allow the entire dental implant process to be completed in-house so that you don’t need a referral. Whether you’re seeking traditional dental implants or All-On-4, we’ve got you covered. Call us today to schedule a consultation for dental implants in West Hartford and Avon.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions
It is never our first choice to remove a patient’s natural tooth. However, in certain cases, an extraction might be recommended because the tooth is putting the rest of a person’s smile at risk. At Blue Back Dental, our team can deliver safe and comfortable care no matter if you require a regular tooth extraction or wisdom teeth removal. With a reputation that has remained top-notch for 20 years and counting, you can rely on us to deliver a comfortable experience that protects your health.
Bone Grafting
Most individuals who suffer from tooth loss are considered possible candidates for dental implants. Even if your mouth is not ready for them during your consultation, we can recommend various procedures (i.e., bone grafting, gum disease treatment) that will put you one step closer to dental implants in the future. We’ll also discuss the versatility of this type of treatment and how it can address any number of missing teeth.

Orthodontics
For anyone struggling with crooked, gapped, or misaligned teeth, the drawbacks of a less-than-perfect smile and the potential for chronic jaw pain and worn-down tooth enamel are real. Fortunately, we offer orthodontic treatment in the form of Invisalign clear aligners, Six Month Smiles, and HealthyStart® for Kids. Call us today to find out if you or a loved one is a good candidate for orthodontics in West Hartford or Avon, and let us put your smile back on track for a brighter, healthier future.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Dr. Austin is an active member of the American Dental Association, Connecticut State Dental Association, and Hartford Dental Society. She is also Invisalign certified.
Braces
For little ones who have difficulty breathing while asleep, it can be a challenging problem for both children and parents. HealthyStart® for kids helps to straighten your child’s teeth and widen their upper airway using various appliances that are non-invasive and pain-free. By carefully guiding these young, developing teeth in the right direction without metal braces, Dr. Liz and Tim Holzhauer, who are certified in HealthyStart®, can help your child avoid the potential for costlier orthodontic treatment in the future as well as improve their sleep-breathing patterns at night.
