Framingham Dental Center
Framingham Dental Center Sign

Drs. Schwartz and Raisman take a comprehensive approach to preventive dental care. Your first visit not only involves inspection for tooth decay, but screening for gum disease, oral cancers, and temporal mandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction as well.

At this visit you will also undergo a full series of x-rays, digital photographs, and have dental models made if needed. Your bite and jaw alignment will be evaluated for abnormality.

We pride ourselves on patient education, and you will be an integral part of this examination.

Some of the Preventative Care we provide include:

Cosmetic Dentistry

Let us help you discover your smile! Once we are sure that your mouth, teeth, and gums are healthy, we can help you look your best. We have the ability to change the appearance of your teeth by removing stains and covering up imperfections.

Some of these services include:

Restorative Services

Restorative services involve repairing your teeth to proper form, function and esthetics. Some of the restorative techniques we perform include:

  • Fillings
  • Crowns and bridges
  • Partial and complete dentures
  • Implant crowns
  • Root Canals
  • Extractions

Periodontal (Gum) Treatment

Your gums provide the foundation for healthy teeth. Because gum disease is so prevalent in the U.S., we measure six areas on each tooth to monitor bone and tissue loss. If necessary, our staff will provide in-office, non-surgical therapy to ensure that your gums stay healthy throughout your lifetime.

Our periodontal services include:

  • Charting and diagnostic services
  • In-office therapy
  • Access to a Periodontist (Gum Specialist) at our office

TMJ Services

Symptoms of TMJ can range from popping or clicking when you open your jaw, to head and neck aches. Normal treatments can range from bite guards to muscle relaxants. A thorough dental exam will usually reveal any TMJ problems.
