Functional Dental Exam
Our Functional Dental Exam is a more extensive dental check-up; it's a comprehensive assessment of your oral health as an integral part of your overall well-being. This is due to resources which enable early disease detection, along with the ability to educate and steer patients towards healthier lifestyles. This also includes nutritional assessment and sleep patterns.
​
Salivary Diagnostics
By analyzing saliva, Dr. Popa can detect a range of biomarkers that indicate not only oral conditions, like periodontal disease, but also systemic issues such as hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, and markers for diseases like diabetes and oral cancer. This innovative approach allows for early diagnosis and more comprehensive treatment planning, highlighting the importance of oral health as an integral part of an individual's overall health profile. Salivary testing represents a significant step towards a more holistic and personalized approach in dental care.
Oral Biome Checkup
Maintaining consistent oral care routines can be daunting, but our support is available! Our oral biome treatment is a 30 min treatment done in between hygiene appointments to maintain a healthy oral microbiome that reflects a healthy gut and brain. It includes a personalized evaluation of what the current oral needs are. Treatment includes air flow & gum therapy, treatment for remineralization & microbiome regeneration.
Implant

Botox & Dermal Fillers
“ beauty is a manifestation of secret natural laws, which otherwise would have been hidden from us forever”
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Besides creating beautiful smiles, we like to create harmony between the dento-facial complex by addressing the deep lines in the face that can prevent our patients from looking and feeling their best.
Smart amalgam removal
Advancements in dentistry have made it possible for patients to have a say in what goes in their mouth.
Using what is known as the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART), we can safely and effectively remove the amalgam from your mouth and offer a more aesthetically pleasing and biocompatible option that blends in beautifully with your natural smile.
Ozone
Ozone therapy, utilizing O3 or enriched oxygen, is a natural, non-toxic method our team employs to eliminate bacteria in the mouth, effectively aiding in the treatment of gum disease and early cavities without discomfort. Produced on-site as medical-grade ozone, it disinfects tissue and promotes regeneration safely. Recognized for its safety and lack of adverse effects, ozone therapy surpasses oral antibiotics in efficacy, stopping decay, accelerating healing, and even reversing tooth damage.
PRF & PRP
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) are innovative dental techniques that speed up healing and tissue repair using a patient's own blood to concentrate healing factors. Useful in dental implants, bone grafting, and gum therapy, they boost healing, lower infection risk, and increase success rates, marking a major step forward in dental care by utilizing the body's own healing processes.
Digital Scanner
Instead of the traditional method where a patient bites into a dental putty for impressions, our approach involves a non-contact scanning process. Utilizing a compact, handheld scanner, we capture thousands of distinct photographic images of the teeth and gums in a matter of seconds. Patients have the opportunity to observe the process as these images are seamlessly integrated into a 3D digital model on a monitor using sophisticated software. This results in a highly detailed three-dimensional representation of the patient's dental structure, providing Dr. Popa with all the necessary information to meticulously plan the patient's treatment.
