Prosthodontic Care
We specialize in restoring missing or damaged teeth using customized prosthetic solutions. Our prosthodontic treatments include crowns, bridges, and implant-supported restorations designed for durability and natural aesthetics. With advanced training in prosthodontics, we address complex cases requiring full-mouth rehabilitation while prioritizing comfort and functionality.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic services transform smiles through veneers, teeth whitening, and composite bonding. We tailor treatments to correct discoloration, chips, and misalignment while maintaining natural tooth structure. Using high-quality materials, we create aesthetically pleasing results that complement facial features and improve patient confidence.
Dental Implants
We provide permanent tooth replacement solutions with dental implants that mimic natural tooth roots. Our implant procedures restore chewing function and prevent bone loss through titanium posts integrated into the jawbone. We design custom crowns and bridges to match adjacent teeth for seamless results.

We offer full and partial dentures designed for comfort and stability. Our removable prosthetics replace multiple missing teeth while supporting facial structure. We use precision-fitting techniques to ensure secure function during eating and speaking, with options for implant-retained dentures.

We address temporomandibular joint disorders through customized oral appliances and bite adjustments. Our treatments alleviate pain from jaw misalignment, bruxism, and muscle tension. We combine diagnostic imaging with physical therapy techniques to restore proper jaw function and reduce headaches or facial discomfort.

Dr. Hummert has done wonderful work on my mouth. He has always been fair and has given great references for other surgeons. Five stars is not near enough to say how good he is. He needs many more. Thank you Dr Hummert so much for all you've done!

If you want perfection, Dr. Hummert is the best Prosthodontist you will find. He and his staff patiently worked with me to assure I would be 100 percent satisfied with my finished work. It's important to trust the skill, knowledge and experence of your dentist. I can highly recommend Dr. Hummert if you want things done right the first time and walk away with the confidence of a job done right!

Report
My husband's name is on this review; but, I am the patient JERI HAHNER. Dr. Hummert has been my prosthodontist for over 8 years. I had a Maxillectomy which involved removing half of my palette and the upper teeth on the right side of my mouth. After working with another dentist unsuccessfully I found Dr. Hummert on the Internet. He has created an Obturator that fits beautifully, functions beautifully, is comfortable and looks natural.
One time he had to add a tooth which he did perfectly. A big plus, in my opinion, is he likes to do some of the improvements himself. And, he does them professionally. I am extremely fortunate to have found Dr. Hummert. I hope this has been helpful for someone.
