Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that mimic natural teeth in appearance and function. Using titanium posts anchored in the jawbone, we create stable foundations for crowns, bridges, or dentures. This service addresses single or multiple missing teeth while preserving bone structure and facial aesthetics. Our implant process includes comprehensive planning with 3D imaging to ensure optimal placement and long-term success.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through veneers, teeth whitening, and bonding procedures. We address discoloration, chips, gaps, and misalignment to create natural-looking, aesthetically pleasing results. Custom treatment plans combine artistic skill with advanced materials to enhance tooth color, shape, and positioning while maintaining functional integrity and oral health.
CEREC Restoration
CEREC technology enables complete ceramic restorations in a single visit using precision digital impressions and in-office milling. This eliminates traditional temporary crowns and multiple appointments while providing durable, natural-colored restorations. The process preserves more healthy tooth structure through minimally invasive preparation techniques for enhanced long-term dental health.
Emergency Treatment
We provide urgent care for dental trauma, infections, and severe pain with same-day appointment availability. Our emergency services address broken teeth, lost fillings, abscesses, and other acute conditions using diagnostic imaging and immediate intervention protocols. The goal is to relieve discomfort, prevent complications, and restore oral function as quickly as possible.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening services deliver significant color improvement through customized take-home trays and in-office bleaching systems. We use carbamide peroxide formulations that safely penetrate enamel to break down deep stains from food, beverages, and aging. Treatment plans consider individual sensitivity levels to achieve optimal whitening with minimal discomfort.

I first went to Dr. Worthington about 25 years ago. He did a complex crown on a tooth and was creative in using a strong material for the structural integrity but also made it so it was not seen when I opened my mouth. Unfortunately I moved, and had to find new dentists. They each remarked what a innovative and impressive job he did in a complicated situation. I always kept him as the standard to judge against when finding a new dentist.
I moved back to the area a few years ago and have been going to him ever since! He had done other more routine work as well-fillings, bonding, and he approaches everything with the utmost professionalism. It's about a 20 minute drive from my house and not convenient to my work location but I go faithfully because you could not be in better hands! From his superior expertise to his friendly and sensible manner, he is a standout in his field. His office staff is so friendly and helpful as well!

I came in to see Dr. Worthington for some toothbcolored fillings and he did a beautiful job. I use Dr. Worthington's office as my general dentist. I see the hygienist every 6 months and they're really great they make sure I'm comfortable. His staff is really sweet and kind. I would highly recommend this office to any of my friends and family.

I saw Dr. Worthington some years ago to have a major cosmetic procedure done, which was porcelain veneers. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Dr. Worthington is the epitome of excellence when searching for a cosmetic dentist! My porcelain veneers are beautiful and very natural, he gave me a gorgeous smile, the office is state of the art and the staff there are exceptional. I highly recommend Dr. Worthington if your looking for the best dentist to take care of your dental needs.

Best dentist I have ever been to (and I have moved many times and had to hunt for a new dentist over and over again.) Ten years ago he replaced most of my top teeth with crowns, and I have lost count of how many people have commented on my beautiful smile. Everyone there is friendly, kind, and efficient they always go the extra mile. Even though I have since moved to NH, I travel back to Fairfield to Dr. Worthington for dental work. He is not only highly skilled, he is an artist.
