Teeth damaged by injury, illness, infection, periodontal disease, age, decay, and more don’t just change your smile, they affect your overall health and wellness.

With more than 30 years of experience including a board-certified periodontist, our dentists provide long-lasting dental repairs through high-tech and high-quality surgical procedures. Our goal is to maintain as much of your natural tooth structure as possible while producing long-lasting, beautiful results with every treatment.

Your comfort is our priority. Depending on the surgery or if you have dental anxiety, that may mean sedation. We offer a variety of options to suit your needs. The result is care that’s more comfortable, less invasive, and requires minimal recovery time.

  • Dental Implants

    Dental implants are used to replace a missing tooth or can be used to replace multiple teeth wit a crown or an implant-supported bridge.

  • Implant-Supported Dentures

    Our fixed dentures, supported by dental implants, offer a high-tech and biocompatible option to anyone who wants to say goodbye to traditional dentures.

  • Sedation Dentistry

    Do you suffer from dental anxiety? Are you nervous about a complex dental procedure? You’re not alone. Fortunately, there is a way to break this vicious cycle: sedation dentistry.

The Permanent Fix For Missing Teeth

Dental implants are the permanent solution to missing teeth. The implants are firmly anchored into place, help prevent bone loss, and are easy to care for.  

No matter what implant option you choose, they all help prevent the repositioning of other healthy teeth, improve chewing function and speech, and provide internal structure for the face to give you a more youthful appearance.

Dental Implants

Dental implants consist of three parts: 

  • The implant itself, which functions like the root of a natural tooth

  • The abutment, which acts as the secure and stable base to hold the final restoration

  • The restoration, which is the part of the implant that looks like a tooth and shows when you smile

Dental implants can be used to replace one missing tooth or several missing teeth with a crown or bridge.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Which is Right for You?

All-on-4 Implants

  • Fit: Stable and secure. Eat the foods you love, speak naturally, and smile with confidence!

  • Health: Protects the bone structure of your face and jaw.

  • Appearance: Look just like your own beautiful teeth. Dazzle the world with your smile.

  • Maintenance: Don’t have to be removed. You can wear them all the time!

Adhesive Dentures

  • Fit: Loose and prone to slipping and sliding.

  • Health: Bone loss caused by traditional dentures often leads to a “sunken” appearance in your face.

  • Appearance: Often look unnatural and not quite like your own teeth.

  • Maintenance: Must be removed and cleaned with denture tablets.

Fight Gum Disease & Protect Your Health

Gum infection and gum disease can wreak havoc on your entire body. Bacteria that enter the body through the gums have been proven to increase your risk of:

  • Pancreatic cancer

  • Osteoporosis

  • Diabetes and diabetic complications

  • Heart disease, hypertension, and stroke

  • Difficulty becoming pregnant as well as pregnancy complications

At The Houston Dentists, our gum disease experts help you take control of your health and avoid the dangers of untreated gum disease. We have the latest technology that allows us to fight gum disease and gum infection. 

Periodontal Treatments

LANAP
High-tech laser gum disease treatment with no scalpel and no stitches.

Minimally Invasive Gum Grafting
Unlike traditional gum grafting, which involves larger incisions and more extensive tissue removal, minimally invasive gum grafting utilizes smaller incisions, resulting in less discomfort and faster recovery. This procedure is often used to treat gum recession caused by periodontal disease or other factors, restoring the gumline's appearance and protecting against further damage. Dr. Moayad Mardini, DDS, provides minimally invasive treatments to help patients with these issues.

Crown Lengthening
Does your smile show too much of your gumline? Often used to correct a “gummy” smile, crown lengthening (also known as a “gum lift”) exposes more of the natural tooth by reshaping or contouring bone and gum tissue. The doctors at The Houston Dentists can transform and recontour your gums so you have a smile that you love to show!

Laser & Ozone Therapy
High-tech gum disease treatments use lasers and ozone to attack bacteria and promote healing and the growth of healthy gum tissue.

Osseous Surgery
Also known as pocket reduction, this minor surgery removes bacteria living in pockets caused by gum disease.

If you suffer from dental anxiety, you’re not alone. Nearly 75% of adults experience some level of fear about visiting the dentist. The problem is when you allow this fear to keep you from getting the regular preventive dental care and attention your mouth needs. Putting off your twice-a-year checkups and other recommended treatments often escalates into more serious (and uncomfortable) conditions.

At The Houston Dentists, we take steps to ensure your visit is positive, relaxing, and comfortable.

Sedation Dentistry

If you suffer from…

  • Anxiety about going to the dentist

  • Low tolerance for discomfort

  • Difficulty sitting still for long periods of time

  • A strong gag reflex

Then sedation dentistry may be for you. We offer oral sedation, nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and NuCalm therapy to help. 

Each doctor a The Houston Dentists is a certified safe sedation dentist.
