We believe oral health is deeply connected to overall well-being. That’s why our approach goes beyond teeth and gums, taking into account your body, lifestyle, and long-term health.
Led by prosthodontist Dr. Varisha Parikh, we take a holistic view of care—designing treatment plans that are not only beautiful and functional, but also built to last and support your total health.
Key wellness factors we consider include:
Nutrition and physical activity
Body and jaw posture
Dry mouth and salivary flow
Gastrointestinal health
Chronic sores or ulcers
Joint pain, clenching, and bruxism
Systemic conditions like diabetes or heart disease
Sleep issues, tooth wear, and shifting teeth
By understanding these connections, we help restore more than just your smile—we support your full-body wellness.
Did you know there is a growing need for prosthodontic work?
Most people don’t know that over 120 million people in the U.S. are missing at least one tooth? Even more striking, around 36 million Americans have no natural teeth at all. Of those, approximately 23 million are completely edentulous, while 12 million are missing all teeth in just one arch (upper or lower).
Fortunately, prosthodontists like Dr. Parikh specialize in restoring smiles. With advanced training and expertise, they can not only replace missing teeth using solutions like implants, dentures, and bridges but also help prevent tooth loss through proactive care and treatment planning.
General dentists are like family doctors wonderful for regular care and checkups. But when it comes to more complex dental needs, like rebuilding your smile, it helps to see a specialist. A prosthodontist has advanced training to handle these cases with extra care, skill, and attention to detail like calling in a specialist to create something truly lasting and beautiful.
We believe that exceptional care should be both seamless and supportive. Many dental cases benefit from a team-based approach involving other dental or medical specialists and we make that collaboration easy for you.
From the initial consultation to final outcomes, we serve as the coordinator and advocate for your care. Our practice uses advanced digital tools including virtual smile design, digital imaging, and surgical planning software to ensure every provider on your care team is informed and aligned.
Think of us as your dental care navigator here to steer your treatment from beginning to end. If you ever have questions or need anything explained, we're always just a phone call away.
