Preventative

We can catch issues before they become a problem

  • Teeth Cleaning

    Patients who commit to routine preventive dental care typically experience fewer oral health problems over time. Semi-annual professional cleanings allow us to take a proactive approach to your dental health. Your dental hygienist uses special tools to remove excess plaque and tartar from the teeth. Once your teeth are tartar free, your hygienist will gently polish the teeth to remove surface stains. They will also look for any signs of gingivitis and may give you a few hygiene tips to help improve your smile health.

  • Periodontal Cleaning

    Our deep cleaning services offer a tailored solution to address the unique oral health needs of patients with periodontal disease. Periodontal deep cleanings, also known as scaling and root planing, go beyond routine cleaning treatments. Our experienced team utilizes specialized techniques to remove built-up plaque and tartar from below the gumline. This process helps eliminate harmful bacteria and reduce inflammation, supporting the healing of gum tissues. 

  • Fluoride

    Fluoride is a natural mineral that is often referred to as nature’s cavity fighter. This amazing mineral strengthens the tooth’s enamel, making it more resistant to tooth decay. Using fluoride toothpaste and drinking fluoridated water are great practices to ensure you intake a sufficient amount of fluoride daily. Professional fluoride treatments are also an effective method to fight against tooth decay, strengthen enamel, and help children develop healthy teeth.

  • Sealants

    Sealants are an effective way to reduce the risk of cavities. The chewing surfaces of molars have deep grooves that can trap food particles and bacteria, increasing the likelihood of decay. By sealing these grooves, the risk of cavities developing on these surfaces is significantly reduced. The sealant material fills the grooves, creating a smoother surface that is easier to clean. The resin is quickly hardened with a blue activating light, and within minutes, your teeth are protected. Sealants can last for several years and may need occasional repair or replacement. Research shows they can reduce tooth decay on the chewing surfaces of molars by up to 90%.

  • Oral Cancer Screening

    Early detection and treatment of oral cancer can significantly increase your chances of a quick and complete recovery. At every hygiene visit, we examine all the tissues of your mouth including gums, cheeks, lips, and tongue. If we suspect any unusual changes in your mouth tissue, we may suggest a biopsy and microscopic analysis by a qualified lab.

Cosmetic

Your dream smile is closer than you think

  • Veneers

    Veneers are the ultimate combination of dental art and science, handcrafted and customized to fit your smile. These paper-thin pieces of porcelain bond to the outside of your natural teeth. Veneers can hide tough stains, and chipped teeth, fill in unwanted gaps, and can even make misaligned teeth look straighter. Our team will work with you to design your veneers to your exact specifications.

  • Teeth Whitening

    Teeth whitening removes years of dingy stains from your teeth. Coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and chocolate can dull tooth enamel. Simple and safe, most patients don't realize how discolored their teeth are until they see a new smile emerge. Professional whitening treatments can be performed in the office or we can send you home with a custom whitening kit so you can brighten your smile from the comfort of your home.

  • Clear Aligners

    For ultimate camouflage, clear aligners offer a modern straightening treatment. A series of clear plastic trays are made using 3D digital models of your teeth. Medical-grade plastic without wires, metal, springs, or rubber bands gently move your teeth into place. Removable trays can be set aside for short periods allowing for normal eating and cleaning.

Restorative

We can restore your teeth to perfect health

  • Crowns

    Sometimes teeth are damaged because of cavities, heavy bite forces, or trauma. If a root canal is needed to salvage a compromised nerve, the tooth may be very fragile after treatment. Dental crowns, or caps, allow these teeth to be rebuilt and covered with materials that mimic nature. Crowns can be crafted to repair a single tooth or multiple teeth. They can also be used in conjunction with dental implants to fill a space. 

  • Fillings

    Dental fillings are one of the most common procedures in dentistry. In this routine treatment, we may inject an anesthetic near the tooth to numb the area. Then, we will use a dental drill to remove any decay present in the area and fill in the carved-out space with a dental restoration material. Fillings can be made of gold, porcelain, amalgam, or tooth-colored composite resin depending on your budget and aesthetic desires.

  • Implants

    Dental implants feel and function like natural teeth and last a lifetime. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are a permanent solution. Many patients do not even notice a difference between their replacement teeth and natural teeth. Dental implants allow patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

  • Bridges

    Whenever you drive across a bridge, you're being supported by the same principles that support a dental bridge. Dental Bridges are a non-removeable way to replace a missing tooth or teeth. It's called a bridge because it spans the space and is attached at both ends to other teeth. An artificial tooth is connected to the supporting teeth and replaces the missing tooth. Many patients choose bridges because it is an affordable treatment to replace multiple teeth.

  • Full & Partial Dentures

    Dentures are an affordable way to replace any number of missing teeth. They have a long history of success, and over 40 million Americans rely on dentures to maintain oral function. Dentures are removable substitutes for missing teeth. Full dentures are used when a person is missing all their natural teeth, while partial dentures replace only a few missing teeth to eliminate gaps and improve oral functions. Denture treatment is customized to each patient’s specific needs. Our team can help you decide which option works best for your smile.

  • Extractions

    Teeth sometimes need to be removed to protect your health and our team will take every step to help you. Your well-being always takes priority in any treatment decision. Our team will take every measure to make sure even minor surgical procedures are as comfortable as possible.

  • Root Canals

    Toothaches are a vivid reminder that teeth aren't just pieces of hard tissue floating around in the gums. They are intricately formed sensory organs with layers of dentin and enamel protecting a living pulp. Coursing through the tooth's pulp is a vital bundle of nerves and blood vessels providing nutrients and sensation to each tooth. Root canals are the most common way to treat problemed pulp. We will remove the pulp and carefully clean out the canal. The space that is used to hold the pulp is then filled and sealed. Afterward, a crown or a restorative structure will be placed on the treated tooth to protect it and allow normal function. 

Oral Condition Treatment

Conservative care for optimal oral, and overall, wellness

  • Sleep Apnea

    Researchers estimate that more than 12 million Americans have obstructive sleep apnea. Most cases are still undiagnosed and can contribute to diabetes, high blood pressure, hypertension, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, and traffic accidents related to drowsy driving. Dentistry serves a vital role in treating this silent epidemic. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends oral appliances as primary therapy for the treatment of mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea and for patients with severe sleep apnea who can't tolerate CPAP treatment.

  • Teeth Grinding

    If you're waking up with a sore jaw or headaches, you may be grinding your teeth at night. Teeth grinding is a subconscious habit that affects about 10% of the population. In many cases, the abrasive action occurs only during sleep and for only a few seconds at a time. Waking up with a sore jaw or a morning headache are common signs of nighttime grinding. Jaw muscles are, ounce for ounce, the strongest in the body, which means they can do a lot of unnecessary damage. A custom oral appliance can protect your excessive wear.

  • Snore Guard

    Do you or your partner struggle with loud snoring that disrupts sleep? A snore guard might be the solution. This comfortable, custom-made oral appliance reduces snoring by gently repositioning the jaw to keep your airway open while you sleep. Providing a precise, comfortable fit, it is easy to wear and can significantly improve your quality of rest—and your partner’s.

  • Sports Mouthguard

    Millions of adults participate in recreational sports and activities like skiing, martial arts, and basketball. Did you know that up to 20% of sports-related injuries involve fractured or damaged teeth? Our team can create a custom sports mouthguard to protect your smile. After taking an impression of your teeth, we will fabricate a mouthguard designed to fit your smile perfectly, providing optimal comfort and protection.

I've been going to L'Enfant Plaza Dental Arts for some years now and have always been impressed with the service I've received. Dr. Hodas is both meticulous and honest. I feel like the cleanings they perform are the best I've ever had.

Brendan T. Google Review

L'Enfant is by far my favorite dental office to date. I have had really awful, horrible experiences with dentists in the past, so I had always dreaded going to get my teeth checked. But since finding these guys, my view on going to the dentist has done a complete 180. The entire staff is SO sweet and friendly. They provide an excellent service that makes me feel comfortable and at ease. I absolutely recommend them!!

Becca C. Yelp

My coworker recommended I come here, and I am absolutely happy I followed his advice.  From the first telephone contact to my visits, my experience has been very positive with zero negatives.  I was able to get an appointment quickly, received prompt communications, and the staff and the doctors are all very nice, genuine, professional and reassuring, managing to make an experience that's not typically pleasant actually so.
