Dr. Kristin Abbas encourages patients to follow good oral health at home and visit Central Avenue Dental regularly so he can remove plaque buildup, look for early signs of tooth decay, and help prevent more complex procedures. Our skilled team provides stress-free preventive, pediatric, emergency, cosmetic, and family dentistry in Charlotte, NC at our bright and modern office. If you’re a little anxious about seeing a dentist, our trained therapy dog Remi is a lovable and reassuring presence! We offer the most current techniques and treatments because better technology affords an array of benefits to you and your family. Our cutting-edge dentistry enables minimally invasive procedures, faster healing, earlier detection and diagnosis of problems, longer-lasting, and more natural-looking restorations, and an overall great experience for patients of all ages.
Preventive services at Central Avenue Dental are designed to maintain your oral health and eliminate plaque and harmful bacteria that can cause destructive gum disease and decay. In addition to routine exams and cleanings, we offer digital x-rays with an intraoral scanner, dental sealants, and fluoride treatments.
Biomimetic dentistry is a conservative approach that only replaces what is damaged. Since biomimetic dentistry utilizes minimally invasive procedures, you’ll experience less pain and discomfort when your tooth is restored. Rather than grinding down a tooth to place a crown, Dr. Miller uses biometric techniques that spare more of your natural tooth. When he removes a cavity, he’ll seal your tooth against infection and bond it to prevent fracture.
We perform occlusal or bite adjustment to remove tiny interferences that keep your teeth from coming together properly. Interferences can occur as teeth develop, following an injury, develop over time, or result from fillings, crowns, bridges, and extractions. Dr. Miller removes a minimal amount of tooth to eliminate the interference. We also offer mouth guards for teeth grinding (bruxism) and oral appliances to alleviate pain associated with temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
If you’re a tobacco user, drink alcohol, or have an increased risk of oral cancer, you should be screened regularly. Our Bio/Screen® Oral Exam Light has five powerful LEDs that illuminate tissue abnormalities and detect oral cancer in the early stages to improve the chances of survival and recovery. Bio/Screen® has a special optical filter that boosts contrast between healthy and abnormal tissue to improve visualization, without the need to turn off the lights or a special rinse.
We encourage children to receive gentle pediatric dentistry in Charlotte, NC when they’re young because it’s important to learn good oral care habits early in life. When they’re old enough, we examine and clean children’s teeth, offer nutritional tips for dental health, and take digital X-rays if we detect a problem. Children who are tongue-tied or lip-tied due to a restrictive frenulum can have trouble eating and this can lead to dental and speech problems later on. A frenectomy is a simple surgical procedure that involves the removal of one or both frenulum from your child’s mouth to resolve current problems and prevent future issues.
Accidents happen and teeth can get chipped or knocked out, or a toothache may cause severe pain. If you’ve injured a tooth or have acute dental pain, our team of caring professionals doesn’t want you to delay getting relief. We offer same-day dental appointments for dental emergencies in Charlotte, NC, and will do our best to work you into our schedule.
Composite fillings are a natural-looking alternative to traditional amalgam fillings that restore strength and aesthetics after decay is removed. Tooth-colored fillings blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth and unlike metal fillings, don’t expand and contract with temperature changes.
Clear aligners use the same predictable approach to straightening your crooked teeth as traditional metal braces. Instead of unsightly and uncomfortable wires, brackets, and rubber bands, we use customized plastic trays to straighten your teeth comfortably and discreetly.
We always go the extra mile to make sure every member of your family feels comfortable at Central Avenue Dental. We accept most insurance plans and offer financing options to make payments more affordable. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, experienced family dentist that provides exceptional dentistry and patient care, you’ve come to the right place!
