Full Mouth Reconstruction
When the entire upper and lower jaw does not function well together (unbalanced occlusion), many teeth need to be optimized. Once the occlusion is stabilized, you will find optimized chewing ability and balanced TMJ function. Dr. Cho confidently diagnoses, plans and performs full mouth rehabilitation. He has completed over 20 years of continuing education at the Dawson Academy for Full Mouth Reconstruction and TMJ and the Misch Implant Institute for Surgical and Prosthetic Implants.

Implants
Dr. Cho has placed thousands of implants over 15 years. Treatments include single tooth replacement, implant-supported bridges, implant-supported full mouth restorations, overdentures.
Pediatrics
We ensure that your children have a great experience and leave happy from the dentist.
Orthodontics
Invisalign and braces correct traumatic biting, spacing crowding and overbites.
Third Molar Extraction
A 3D cone-beam CT will demonstrate your risk of nerve involvement when taking out the tooth. This is the best way to visualize important structures such as nerves and the sinus to minimize risks during wisdom tooth removal.
Laser Dentistry
No Shots, No Drills. We use the most advanced pain-free laser technology to eliminate bacteria and tooth decay.
Periodontics
Gum disease is the most prevalent disease in America. Gum health is essential for healthy, long lasting teeth. Preventative maintenance every 6 months is the best method of maintaining your gums. When the gum health is very poor, the gums will bleed very easily because of mineralized deposits under the gum tissue. We will recommend a deep cleaning in this type of condition.

Endodontics
Root canals are nerve treatment to the individual tooth. Patients have found the experience of a root canal to be much better than expected. Teeth can cause severe pain if not treated quickly enough. Root canals take at least 2 – 3 appointments.
Trios Scanner
The 3Shape TRIOS Intraoral Scanner enables both dentists and orthodontic specialists to obtain detailed 3D digital impressions of a patient’s teeth and occlusion to deliver the most precise, efficient, and comfortable care. A guided scanning process using an ergonomically designed wand captures and integrates multiple intraoral images from every angle to generate highly accurate 3D impressions. The 3Shape TRIOS Intraoral Scanner provides a far more pleasant office experience for the patient than the conventional methods of taking dental impressions. Compatible with multiple digital systems, the 3Shape TRIOS Intraoral Scanner allows for the seamless and efficient generation of dental models for the custom fabrication of dental prostheses such as crowns as well as orthodontic aligners. With the 3Shape TRIOS Intraoral Scanner, the practitioner consistently obtains the most precise information for more predictable results and better outcomes of care.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
Commonly referred to as “laughing gas,” nitrous oxide is used as a mild sedative to reduce anxiety and allow a level of relaxation during a procedure. Nitrous oxide is inhaled through a small mask over the nose. It is administered for the duration of the procedure and is turned off as the procedure is coming to an end. The effects of this method of sedation wear off very quickly.
IV Sedation
IV Sedation involves a sedative that is administered intravenously, or directly into a vein. It is indicated when deeper sedation is required. This type of sedation can be quickly modified to your state of consciousness and can be continued as long as necessary for the procedure.
IV Sedation requires an empty stomach. Patients receiving this type of sedation will be instructed as to how many hours prior to their dental procedure they should stop eating or drinking. In addition to this, patients receiving IV sedation will need to have an escort present for the appointment and to be able to drive them home when the appointment is completed.
