Complete Dental
Services for Sumner

Crowns and Bridges

Protect and keep badly decayed or fractured teeth while maintaining a beautiful smile. Made to perfectly match the shape and shade of your other teeth, they’re durable, strong, and undetectable.

Crowns should be placed before the tooth is so decayed that it may fracture. This can often help prevent the expense of root canal therapy in the future. If a tooth is too damaged to have a crown applied, a porcelain bridge may be a good alternative.

Dental Implant Restorations

Ziegele Smile Studio provides dental implant restorations. Implants are a great option for replacing missing teeth, improving chewing ability, eliminating bridges, and replacing traditional dentures.

Several implants may provide a base for a series of artificial teeth known as a fixed bridge. Implants can even be used to secure a full set of removable dentures for our Sumner patients who have no remaining natural teeth or systemic problems with their teeth.

PreVu™ Technology

Our office is proud to offer the latest in treatment visualization technology. Using our PreVu™ software, we can take extremely accurate measurements and photographs of your mouth and jaw. This imaging and measuring are combined with cutting-edge photo editing software to give you a visual ‘preview’ of the results of their treatment before they even start!

Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are very thin porcelain pieces that are custom-made to adhere directly to the front of teeth without grinding or shaving. With veneers, Dr. Ziegele can transform your smile without drilling on your natural teeth.

TMJ Treatment

If you suffer from headaches or pain, clicking or popping while chewing, there may be problems with your temporomandibular joint (or TMJ). Call us today to schedule a free TMJ treatment consultation.

Sleep Apnea Device

There are several treatment options to maintain an open airway during sleep and prevent the collapse associated with sleep apnea. Traditional medical options include a CPAP machine or various types of surgery involving the nasal or oral airways. Dr. Ziegele recommends using an airway device that looks a little like a sports mouthguard. This oral device repositions your jaw to open the airway and provide a snore-free and apnea-free restful sleep.

Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry with Dr. Ziegele allows her patients to relax while undergoing restorative and cosmetic dental procedures. Dental sedation enables patients to overcome anxiety from discomfort up to phobia about even visiting the dentist. Plus, sedation allows you to group various procedures into a single office visit, making it a better use of your time. And in the end, you have little or no recollection of your visit.

Mercury Free Restorations

The common silver filling contains mercury. Dr. Ziegele uses the highest-quality biocompatible, tooth-colored restorations to create healthy, beautiful smiles. Since the composite material adheres directly to the tooth enamel, less preparation of the tooth is required before using it. This means it is more durable and provides a more natural-looking result for her Sumner patients.

Smile Whitening

Many everyday things like coffee, tea, and wine can significantly dull teeth. Smile-whitening enables us to significantly brighten your smile for that dazzling white smile you deserve.

Plastic whitening trays will be made from models of your teeth. You will then place a special whitening gel in each tray and wear the trays in your mouth for several hours per day. (Many patients wear their trays after dinner and before bed.) A significant change in tooth color is usually seen in just four to six weeks.
