Company offers

FULL MOUTH RECONSTRUCTION

Full mouth reconstruction, commonly referred to by patients and dentists as a “smile makeover,” is a series of treatments used to address a wide range of issues within a patient’s smile. Greg G. Pitts DDS sees many patients with several concerns in the appearance and function of their smile who are interested in hearing what solutions are available. Our team of professionals, can develop a treatment plan that helps anyone reconstruct their smile.

SLEEP APNEA

Obstructive sleep apnea, sometimes called OSA, is a sleeping disorder that impacts a patient’s overall health. For one reason or another, the patient experiences a blockage in their airway, sometimes hundreds of times in one night, that keeps them from breathing while they are sleeping. This condition is called obstructive sleep apnea. As a result, the patient feels tired the next day due to the interruption in sleep cycles throughout the night, not allowing them to reach the restorative sleep stage they need to feel their best every day. Greg G. Pitts DDS of American Fork, Utah, provides oral appliances for patients who have sleep apnea and snoring conditions.

DENTAL IMPLANTS

Restorations such as dental implants are truly changing the quality of life for patients who have missing teeth. These restorations are designed to offer a proper foundation for the replacement of one or more missing teeth. Implant restorations function, look and feel just like one’s natural teeth do. A patient with missing teeth can retain the ability to enjoy all their favorite foods once again, knowing at the same time that their teeth look completely natural. Patients with dental implants will also enjoy the preservation of their facial contours, eliminating the “sunken in” appearance many patients with tooth loss notice over time due to bone resorption. Greg G. Pitts DDS of American Fork, Utah, is excited to provide the placement and restoration of dental implants for new and existing patients.

ORAL SURGERY

Oral surgery is just that: surgery. Oral surgery can be invasive, whether patients are obtaining dental implants or having wisdom teeth extracted. Because of this, Greg G. Pitts DDS of American Fork, UT, often recommends sedation for patients undergoing surgical procedures. Many patients don’t want to be wide awake while their procedure is being performed and may benefit from one of several sedation options used in our practice.

SEDATION DENTISTRY

Greg G. Pitts DDS and our team go above and beyond to make sure our patients are comfortable before, during, and following dental treatment. In addition to a gentle chairside manner, genuine compassion, and the ability to truly listen to our patients’ concerns, we also offer tv shows during procedures to help keep your mind distracted.

Pitts DDS’ office. A custom fitting mouthguard ensures maximum protection when playing sports such as, but not limited to, hockey, wrestling, basketball, and football. When patients have a properly fitted mouthguard, they are more likely to wear them during these activities and keep their smiles protected from injury.

INVISALIGN

Oftentimes, children and adults do not feel comfortable wearing traditional braces to straighten their teeth. Now patients can achieve the results they desire by using an alternative called Invisalign. Invisalign utilizes clear aligner trays vs. traditional metal brackets to straighten teeth. The Invisalign system allows Greg G. Pitts DDS to provide patients a beautiful smile without the metal brackets at his American Fork, Utah practice.

SAME DAY CEREC CROWNS

If a patient has a tooth that is fractured, decayed or has a fractured or missing filling Greg G Pitts DDS of American Fork, Utah, may tell them they need a crown. Dental crowns are restorations that cover a tooth to offer an extra layer of protection and to strengthen the tooth so it can function properly. At many dental practices in the area, the process of creating a dental crown from start-to-finish takes several weeks, though our practice is proud to offer one-stop visits for CEREC, same-day dental crowns.

ITERO SCANNER

When preparing for certain treatments, many patients will need to have a series of impressions done of one or more of their existing teeth. In the past, having impressions done required patients of the American Fork, Utah, area to deal with messy impression processes that were messy and often caused patients to experience their gag reflex in full force. No longer do impressions have to be uncomfortable and undesirable. Greg G. Pitts DDS is a dentist in the community that offers an alternative with the iTero digital impression scanner.

ZOOM! WHITENING

One of the most popular treatments at the practice of Greg G. Pitts DDS is that of the Zoom! bleaching system. Zoom! is a whitening system that brightens the teeth up to eight shades whiter in one visit. Many American Fork, Utah area patients considering this treatment will speak to Greg G. Pitts DDS and his team to determine if they are an appropriate candidate.

TMJ THERAPY

According to recent statistics, each year, upwards of 50 million Americans experience headaches so severe that they seek medical treatments. For many of these individuals, chronic headaches negatively affect the quality of their daily lives. What many people fail to realize is that their headaches may actually result from Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorder.

WISDOM TEETH

Most patients have four wisdom teeth, one in each corner of the dental arch. Because these teeth are so far back in the mouth, they can become impacted or stuck under the gum line. Sometimes they turn and push against the other teeth. In some instances, they may develop above the gum line but can be difficult to brush and floss making them a contributor to periodontal disease or tooth decay. At this point, many patients are advised by Greg G. Pitts DDS to undergo wisdom tooth extraction.
