Oral Rehabilitation is dentistry's version of an "Extreme Makeover". All procedures as described below are performed by Dr. Dario, frequently combining several disciplines at the same visit. This approach ensures cohesive, expedited treatment and affords significant time savings for the patient.
While a majority of the Practice is devoted to Oral Rehabilitation, Dr. Dario is pleased to treat more routine cases such as single teeth and small bridges. In addition, our staff of expert Hygienists provide an outstanding maintenance program to help any patient maintain their mouth and dentition to the highest standard.

The office is located on the first floor of a late 19th Century brick Federalist building. It consists of 5 state of the art operatories, an in-house laboratory, and full x-ray equipment including a CAT scan X-Ray machine.

Crowns and Bridgework: Pure ceramic and porcelain fused to gold crowns and bridgework for natural teeth and implants. All restorations are custom made by our own laboratory and can be modified in-house by Dr. Dario if necessary.

Provisional Restorations: Also called "temporaries" are custom made by our laboratory and Dr. Dario for strength, durability, improved functionality and patient comfort.

Implant specific restorations: Implant abutments are fabricated and custom milled by Dr. Dario in his laboratory prior to the fabrication of the final crowns and bridges.

Implant Placement: Dr. Dario has placed thousands of dental implants, frequently in conjunction with normal crown and bridge procedures. Where appropriate, immediate post extraction placement and immediate loading may be performed. These techniques have the potential to shorten the total treatment time dramatically.

Bone Grafting: Where required, Dr. Dario may perform particle, onlay, split ridge, or sinus augmentation (sinus lift) grafting with collagen membranes to enhance implant healing and support.

Restorative Dentistry: Silver amalgam fillings, bonding, veneers, gold and ceramic inlays and onlays.

Oral surgery: Dr. Dario offers routine tooth extractions, extractions in conjunction with simultaneous implant placement, extractions in conjunction with provisional restorations, extractions for immediate dentures, and pre-prosthetic surgery.

Root Canals, Endodontics: Dr. Dario has done thousands of root canals. a majority of which are performed during tooth preparation for crown and bridgework This service is especially valuable in that the root canal is completed and the tooth is stabilized at the same visit, which decreases the potential for complications. For those cases where a surgical root canal is indicated. an apicoectomy and retrograde filling will be done.

Complete and Partial Dentures: Custom crafted removable prosthetics and implant overdentures. Dr. Dario personally sets and waxes up all cases prior to processing.

Hygiene Maintenance: For the patient whose mouth is restored, or those patients needing no restorative treatment whatsoever. our staff of Hygienists will provide expert cleanings and instruction to maintain your mouth to the highest possible standard. Our Hygienists are given a full hour to give them adequate time to clean and maintain even the most extensive and exotic restorations and have been given specialized training and equipment for implant prosthesis.

Tooth Whitening: Conventional and laser assisted whitening is offered. These services can be advantageous when matching non-restored teeth to a lighter, more youthful shade desired in new porcelain crowns and bridges.

Dr. Dario's practice is one of a handful in the country offering Oral Rehabilitation, the treatment of extremely advanced dental problems. Oral Rehabilitation combines the disciplines of Prosthodontics, Oral Surgery, Endodontics, and Implant Surgery to accomplish the treatment goals.
