Dentist in Woodhaven, MI

Dental implants replace missing teeth with a permanent, fixed restoration that functions like a natural tooth. The implant — a small titanium post — is surgically placed into the jawbone at the Woodhaven office, where it integrates with the bone over time to serve as a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or full prosthetic arch. Dr. Hanson provides implant placement and restoration under one roof, eliminating the need for referrals to outside surgical specialists.

The ESTEEM Dental Implant system is a proprietary full-mouth bridge procedure designed to restore complete dental function and appearance. ESTEEM is offered exclusively through trained providers, and Dr. Hanson serves as a Clinical Director of Implant Initiatives, bringing advanced training in same-day implant protocols to the Woodhaven office. The system is designed for patients who have experienced significant tooth loss or who are dealing with failing dentition.

Implant supported dentures use a series of dental implants to anchor a removable or fixed denture prosthesis, providing greater stability than traditional dentures. This option is particularly relevant for patients who have experienced bone loss or who find that conventional dentures shift during eating and speaking. The full treatment process — from implant placement to final denture fitting — is completed at the Allen Road office.

Full arch dental implant treatment replaces an entire upper or lower set of teeth using a fixed prosthetic secured to four or more implants. This procedure is designed for patients who are missing most or all teeth in one or both arches. The surgical placement, temporary prosthetic, and final restoration are all managed at the Woodhaven office location.

Tooth extractions are performed when a tooth is non-restorable due to decay, fracture, infection, or crowding. Brownstown Dental Care performs both simple and surgical extractions on-site, including extractions that are part of a larger implant treatment plan. Extractions are often performed in coordination with bone grafting to preserve the jawbone for future restorative work.

Bone grafting rebuilds jawbone volume that has been lost due to tooth extraction, infection, or long-term tooth loss. Adequate bone density is a prerequisite for successful dental implant placement. The grafting procedure is performed at the Allen Road office and is commonly scheduled at the same appointment as an extraction to minimize healing time.

Failing dental implant treatment addresses implants that have loosened, become infected, or are otherwise not functioning as intended. This service is available for patients who received their original implant work at another practice as well as existing Brownstown Dental Care patients. Evaluation and treatment planning for failing implants are handled at the Woodhaven office.

Cosmetic dentistry at this Woodhaven location includes a range of treatments designed to improve the appearance of teeth, gums, and the overall smile. The cosmetic options available at the Allen Road office encompass veneers, whitening, gum recontouring, and comprehensive smile makeover treatment plans that may combine several procedures.

A smile makeover is a customized treatment plan that combines two or more cosmetic and restorative procedures to address multiple concerns — such as discoloration, misalignment, chips, gaps, or worn teeth — in a coordinated sequence. Dr. Hanson develops each smile makeover plan based on the patient’s specific goals, oral health status, and facial structure.

Invisalign uses a series of custom-fabricated, clear removable aligners to gradually reposition teeth. The aligners are replaced at prescribed intervals throughout treatment. All Invisalign scanning, planning, progress monitoring, and adjustments take place at the Allen Road location in Woodhaven.

Professional teeth whitening addresses staining and discoloration that occurs over time from food, beverages, tobacco use, or the natural aging process. The Woodhaven office provides in-office whitening treatments that deliver results in a single appointment, as well as take-home options for patients who prefer a more gradual approach.

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-crafted shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their shape, color, size, or alignment. Veneers are a common component of smile makeover plans and are frequently used to correct chips, gaps, and uneven wear. Preparation, impressions, and bonding are all completed at the Woodhaven office.

Dental crowns restore teeth that are damaged, decayed, or weakened, while bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent natural teeth. These restorations are custom-fabricated for each patient and are designed to match the surrounding dentition in color, shape, and function. The preparation, fitting, and cementation of crowns and bridges are all performed at the Allen Road office.

Soft tissue recontouring reshapes the gum line to correct a gummy smile, uneven gum margins, or excess tissue that conceals tooth structure. This procedure is often performed as part of a broader cosmetic treatment plan and is completed in the Woodhaven office using precision techniques that promote faster healing.

The cost of dental implants varies based on the number of implants placed, the type of restoration (single crown, bridge, or full arch), and whether preparatory procedures such as bone grafting or extractions are required. Brownstown Dental Care provides individualized cost breakdowns during the consultation process at the Woodhaven office, and the practice works with patients on financing and payment options to make implant treatment accessible.

Patients considering dental implants often have questions about candidacy, the surgical process, recovery timelines, and long-term maintenance. The dental implant FAQ resource addresses common questions and provides factual information to help patients prepare for their consultation at the Allen Road office.

IV sedation is administered intravenously to provide a deep level of relaxation during dental procedures. This option is available for patients who experience significant dental anxiety or who require extensive surgical work such as multiple extractions, bone grafting, or implant placement in a single visit. IV sedation is monitored throughout the procedure and is provided on-site at the Woodhaven office.

Sleep apnea treatment at the dental office involves the use of custom oral appliances designed to reposition the jaw and keep the airway open during sleep. This is an alternative to CPAP machines for patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea. Evaluation, fitting, and follow-up adjustments are completed at the Allen Road location.

Gum disease treatment addresses gingivitis and periodontitis — conditions in which bacterial infection damages the gum tissue and, if untreated, the bone structure supporting the teeth. Periodontal disease is a significant contributor to tooth loss. The Woodhaven office provides scaling and root planing, periodontal maintenance, and coordination with implant or restorative treatment when tooth loss has already occurred.

Endodontic treatment — commonly known as root canal therapy — removes infected or inflamed tissue from the interior of a tooth to preserve the tooth and eliminate pain. This procedure is performed when decay or trauma has reached the dental pulp. Brownstown Dental Care provides root canal treatment on-site, often followed by placement of a crown to protect the treated tooth long-term.

Emergency dental care is available for situations that require prompt attention — including severe toothaches, knocked-out or broken teeth, lost restorations, and dental infections. The Woodhaven office accommodates urgent cases during regular business hours. Patients experiencing a dental emergency can contact the office at (734) 479-1200 for same-day or next-day scheduling.

Beyond the specialized and restorative services listed above, Brownstown Dental Care provides a full range of additional dental services at the Woodhaven office.
