This advanced method ensures complete removal of biofilm, a key contributor to cavities and gum disease, helping you maintain a healthier smile.

Dental fillings are a common treatment for a tooth that’s decayed, damaged, cracked, or broken. A dental filling restores the tooth’s appearance and functionality. Dr. Pereira uses durable and biocompatible dental materials.
Biomimetic Inlays and onlays provide a less invasive alternative to crowns, designed to strengthen and protect your remaining tooth structure while preventing further cracks or damage. These long-lasting ceramic restorations are an ideal solution when a filling isn’t enough, but a crown would remove too much healthy tooth structure. They blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, both in appearance and function.
When tooth decay extends beyond what a filling can repair, a dental crown provides the advanced care needed to restore your tooth’s strength, function, and appearance. Crowns are also a versatile solution for improving both the aesthetics and chewing ability of your smile.
At Dentarts Prosthodontics, we use only premium ceramic materials for our dental crowns. Each crown is custom crafted by a skilled local ceramist, with Dr. Pereira, a prosthodontist, deeply involved in the design process. This hands-on approach ensures a perfect fit, natural appearance, and long-lasting results tailored to your unique needs.
SMART (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique) is a global health initiative designed to protect patients, dental professionals, and the environment from the harmful effects of mercury released during the removal of amalgam fillings. These fillings are made up of roughly 50% elemental mercury, a toxic heavy metal that poses risks to overall health.
The SMART protocol uses advanced techniques and equipment to safely remove mercury amalgam fillings, minimizing exposure to patients, doctors, and office staff. This process ensures a safer and healthier dental experience for everyone involved.
Dr. Pereira is extensively trained and certified in the SMART protocol, giving her patients peace of mind and access to safer, healthier alternatives for dental restorations. By choosing Dentarts Prosthodontics, you’re making the SMART choice for your oral health, overall wellness, and a healthier environment.
