Gum health, cleanings and restorative dentistry for Old Greenwich patients who want to keep their own teeth healthy for years to come.
Old Greenwich patients
Many of our Old Greenwich patients have been with a dentist elsewhere for decades and come to us now to address the results: fillings placed years ago, a gum line that has receded, or a crown that no longer matches the surrounding teeth. This is careful, considered work, and it suits how our practice is built.
We measure gum health thoroughly and share the results with you clearly, because gum health is one of the strongest predictors of keeping your natural teeth well into later life. When something needs replacing, we aim to do it once, and do it well.
Your appointments here are never rushed. If a visit needs extra time to be done properly, we give it that time.

Where our Old Greenwich patients focus their care
Thorough charting, deep cleaning when it is genuinely needed, and a maintenance schedule matched to your risk.
Regular visits designed to catch decay early, while it is still a simple filling rather than a crown.
Failing fillings and worn crowns replaced with ceramics shaded to match your natural teeth.
Bonding, reshaping and whitening designed to look completely natural.
Custom-fitted guards for grinding and jaw discomfort, made specifically for your bite.
A cracked tooth or lost crown seen promptly, so a busy week or a trip does not have to be spent in discomfort.

Bleeding gums are often the earliest sign of gum disease, and the good news is that at this stage it can usually be reversed. That is exactly why it is worth a visit now rather than waiting, since gum disease left untreated can lead to lasting bone and gum loss.
Yes, this is one of the more common requests we hear from Old Greenwich patients. We are glad to replace fillings that are failing, cracked, or simply no longer to your liking, though a sound, healthy filling does not need to be changed just for appearance.
We start by identifying the cause, whether it is brushing too hard, teeth grinding, or gum disease, because treating the surface without addressing the cause rarely lasts. From there, options range from a night guard and a change in technique to gum grafting for more advanced cases.
We take the time needed to get the fit right. A crown is carefully prepared, checked against your bite, and placed at a second visit while a temporary protects the tooth in between, which is part of why our crowns hold up well over time.
Yes. A regular cleaning addresses the area above the gumline, while a deep cleaning treats beneath it, typically with local anesthetic for your comfort. We only recommend a deep cleaning when gum measurements show it is needed, and we walk you through those numbers directly.
A custom night guard protects your enamel and eases jaw discomfort, and we will also look at whether your bite is contributing to the grinding. Since grinding can wear teeth down permanently over time, it is worth addressing before it causes lasting damage.
Bring us the teeth you already have, and we will help you keep them healthy for years to come.
