Dental Implants
Midtown Smile Dental offers comprehensive dental implant solutions for missing teeth. Using 3D CT scan technology, we precisely plan and execute implant placements that integrate naturally with your jawbone. Our process includes bone grafting when necessary and creates custom crowns that match your natural smile. With proper care, these implants provide permanent, functional replacements that maintain facial structure and prevent bone loss.
Invisalign
Our Invisalign treatment straightens teeth discreetly using custom clear aligners. The process begins with 3D imaging to create your personalized ClinCheck treatment plan showing your smile transformation. Patients receive new aligner sets every 1-2 weeks, with treatment durations ranging from 6 months to 3 years based on case complexity. We provide regular check-ups to monitor progress and ensure optimal results for improved bite alignment and aesthetics.
Porcelain Veneers
Custom porcelain veneers transform smile appearance by correcting tooth color, shape, and alignment. Our master ceramists create ultra-thin shells that bond to tooth surfaces for natural aesthetics. The process involves three appointments: consultation, preparation, and final placement. These durable restorations resist staining and provide long-lasting enhancements for chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth while maintaining proper bite function.
Root Canal Therapy
We specialize in comfortable root canal treatments using ultrasonic cleaning systems and 3D CT scans for precise diagnosis. This procedure removes infected pulp tissue from damaged teeth, preserving natural tooth structure. Most treatments complete in 1-2 visits with local anesthesia ensuring patient comfort. Post-treatment, we recommend dental crowns to protect treated teeth and prevent future complications.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional in-office whitening produces dramatic results in a single 90-minute appointment. The process uses hydrogen peroxide-based solutions with protective measures for sensitive teeth. Patients receive post-treatment care instructions to maintain results, including avoidance of staining foods. For persistent discoloration from medications like tetracycline, we offer specialized whitening protocols with customized home maintenance trays.

I have been going to Dr. Caplin for many years and have always had an excellent experience. She is caring and sensitive to nervous patients. She is also very clear on what your options are and why she recommends them. If you are looking for a new Dentist, you will be very happy under Dr. Caplin's care.
