Space Maintainers

Fillings
Dental Bonding
Fixed metal braces have come a long way since the previous generation. No longer are metal bands needed on all teeth to connect the fictional until (bracket) to the tooth. Today we are able to bond the bracket directly to the tooth requiring only a relatively small amount of tooth surface to be covered. A bonding bracket is secured to the tooth surface with dental bonding adhesive similar to that which is used for tooth colored fillings. The area under the bracket is sealed and protected from the outside. This means that plaque and food cannot become trapped under the bracket. It is still important however, to brush very carefully around the brackets since these areas are prone to being damaged by plaque.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Jaw Surgery
Doing orthodontic treatments in two steps provides excellent results often allowing the doctor to avoid removal of permanent teeth and jaw surgery. The treatment done when some of the baby teeth are still present is called Phase One. The last part of treatment after all the permanent teeth have erupted is called Phase Two.

Orthodontics
Dr. Cognata has over 25 years of experience in private practice providing orthodontic care for children and adults with the full spectrum of malocclusions and dentofacial problems. He also spent 25 years teaching part time at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine Department of Orthodontics where he was Director of Predoctoral Orthodontics and Clinical Instructor of Postdoctoral Orthodontics.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Treatment with clear aligners is now possible and we are very pleased offer this service. They are only one of many appliance types and systems within our orthodontic specialty. We have treated hundreds of cases with Invisalign with excellent results. However, these appliances are not suitable to treat all forms of malocclusion and dentofacial deformities. Fixed metal of ceramic braces may be a more appropriate treatment for correction of a malocclusion. As an orthodontic practice we are pleased to fully evaluate your needs and to recommend the best treatment option.
Braces
Research has shown that serious orthodontic problems can be more easily corrected when the patient’s skeleton is still growing and flexible. By correcting the skeletal problems at a younger age we can prepare the mouth for the eventual eruption of the permanent teeth. If the permanent teeth have adequate space to erupt they will come in fairly straight. If the teeth erupt fairly straight their tendency to get crooked again after the braces come off is diminished significantly. After the permanent teeth have erupted, usually from age 12-14, complete braces are placed for final alignment and detailing of the bite. Thus the final stage of treatment is quicker and easier on the patient.
