Dental Examination
To prevent tooth decay, see your dentist at least twice each year for a thorough cleaning and oral exam. At home, you should brush your teeth with a soft tooth brush after each meal and floss daily. Mouthwash and fluoride rinses can help destroy harmful bacteria and re-mineralize teeth. Of course, staying away from foods high in sugars and starches will help since bad bacteria consider these two items a delicacy.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
A healthy smile free from disease and decay can enhance your appearance, boost your health, and improve your outlook on life. Proper preventive care is crucial to maintaining your best smile, which is why we offer comprehensive therapies to keep mouths healthy and strong. Below, learn more about our preventive dentistry services in Boston -- including checkups and cleanings, oral cancer screenings, and more.

Teeth Cleaning
Periodontal treatment of early stage gum disease, called gingivitis, may only require a dental cleaning and continued oral hygiene care at home in order to control inflammation and prevent disease progression.
Fluoride Treatment
If you have small cavities, get them filled as soon as possible, before they grow and cause extensive damage. Professional fluoride treatments and dental sealants can also help deter tooth decay. Some patients have more problems with plaque than others. We’ll gladly help you understand the particularities of your mouth and recommend ways to prevent bacteria and tooth decay.
Dental Sealants
Kids are at a high risk of tooth decay between the ages of 6 and 14. During this period, they can benefit greatly from dental sealants. These thin protective layers can be painted directly onto the irregular surfaces of premolars and molars, literally sealing out acids and bacteria to prevent tooth decay. It only takes a few minutes to apply dental sealants and they can provide years of protection. Cavity-prone adults can benefit from dental sealants as well.

Fillings
A – True. Your dentist can replace amalgam fillings with tooth-colored composite resin or porcelain inlays and onlays. Ceramic or porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns can replace your existing metal crowns, as well. You can reclaim your all-white smile with modern esthetic restorations!
Resin Composite
If you're embarrassed about your smile because of decay or dark fillings in your teeth, you may be a good candidate for composite resins. A silicon dioxide-filled, tooth-colored plastic mixture, composite resins can restore teeth to an attractive, healthy state. Composite resins represent several advantages over traditional silver, or amalgam, fillings.
Veneers
Do you find yourself smiling with your lips closed? Having noticeable flaws on your front teeth can make you feel self-conscious and prevent you from making the best first impression possible. Our cosmetic dentists at Kraft & Schrott Dental Associates can use customized porcelain veneers in Boston to transform your teeth so that you can enjoy a perfect, dazzling, natural-looking grin! Get in touch with us today if you’ve been thinking of giving your smile a makeover.
Crowns
Pain while chewing or tooth sensitivity may be a sign that you need a crown. A compromised tooth won't heal on its own. In fact, you could experience a painful break that requires emergency care. We will help you protect your smile. Kraft, Dr. Schrott and their associates apply custom crowns to renew structural integrity to cracked or severely worn teeth.
Bridges
If you are missing a tooth, a permanent bridge can often be made to replace it. It will look and feel natural, without hooks or clasps, and stay in permanently, allowing normal function. When teeth are missing the remaining teeth begin to change position, and this can lead to numerous problems, including loss of more teeth. A fixed bridge will prevent teeth from shifting, and stabilize your bite. Our dentists at Kraft & Schrott Dental Associates also offer dental implant therapy, which often is a better alternative to bridges when you are looking to replace missing teeth. If you are missing a tooth, call our dental office today so one of our skilled specialists can discuss the different treatment options with you.
Dental Bonding
Whether or not Invisalign is a good option for you depends in part on how big the gaps are. Smaller spaces can be corrected with cosmetic bonding or porcelain veneers; Invisalign is normally recommended for larger gaps.
Restorative Dentistry
Whole-body health starts with a healthy smile. Dental problems wreak havoc with your teeth and gums, and they can also increase your risk for heart attack, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, pregnancy complications, and other serious health issues. Our expert team offers quality restorative dentistry treatments in Boston to strengthen smiles and give patients improved overall health. Your smile is our top priority, and we will not settle for anything less than your complete satisfaction.

Root Canal Treatment
Sometimes bad bacteria, plaque, can throw a healthy mouth’s homeostasis into chaos. Made from mucus, saliva, decaying food, and bad bacteria, plaque is a sticky substance that can build up on your teeth. Harmful bacteria in plaque emit an acid that eats away tooth enamel to create cavities. This acid can eat into the tooth, through the enamel, through the dentin, causing pain where nerves and blood vessels are vulnerable. Often a cavity that grows to affect the dentin must undergo a root canal or extraction. In short, tooth decay can kill teeth.

Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
Periodontal Surgery
In moderate or severe cases, osseous resective surgery may be necessary. Since periodontal disease is associated with deep pockets around teeth, periodontal surgery aims at eliminating or reducing such periodontal pockets, which serve as niches for pathogenic bacteria. Dr. Alexander Schrott, our Boston periodontist is a specialist for such procedures.
Deep Cleaning
If we find cause for concern, we may recommend that you change your oral healthcare routine or the products you use at home. We may also suggest a deep cleaning, which involves...

Dentures
Oral cancer kills more people nationwide than either cervical or skin (melanoma) cancer, and only half of patients diagnosed will survive more than five years. One American dies every hour from oral cancer. The most common risk factors are tobacco use, frequent high quantity alcohol consumption, constant sunlight exposure, habitual cheek or lip biting, or poorly fitting dentures. Although most oral cancers are found in people who use tobacco and/or drink alcohol excessively, 25 percent of oral cancers occur in people who have no risk factors at all.

Dental Implants
Prior to receiving dental implants, patients undergo extensive evaluation to determine whether they are healthy enough to be a successful recipient of implant supported tooth replacement. For many years, lack of jawbone was one of the main reasons patients were considered less successful candidates, but with the help of trained periodontists bone grafts have become a viable option for patients who are unable to replace missing teeth with dental implants due to diminished bone volume.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions
Tooth Extraction & Ridge Preservation – the roots of teeth stimulate the jawbone preserving natural bone, but as soon as a tooth is lost, bone volume begins to diminish. Ridge preservation is a minimally invasive procedure whereby the periodontist applies a protective membrane and bone grafting materials to the empty socket following tooth extraction ensuring the preservation of jawbone.
Ridge Augmentation
Ridge Augmentation - following tooth loss, trauma, severe gum disease, or other oral health issues, the jawbone breaks down and may not allow for the placement of a dental implant. Ridge augmentation is the process of restoring or replacing this lost supportive bone so dental implants can be placed at a later time.
Bone Grafting
At Kraft, Schrott & Associates, our experienced periodontist Dr. Alexander Schrott offers patients superior treatment options for periodontal disease, dental implant tooth replacement, bone and gum tissue grafts and more. If you’re interested in dental implants, but have been unable to receive this treatment in the past due to insufficient jawbone, contact Kraft, Schrott & Associates today. We’re happy to schedule a dental implant consultation, discuss bone grafting options with you, and offer treatment recommendations that meet your unique needs.

Orthodontics
For the most part, dental insurance covers preventive procedures, including annual X-rays, two cleanings and checkups per year, and fluoride treatments at 100 percent. Restorative care, such as fillings, crowns, replacement teeth, orthodontics, etc. are partially covered.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Invisalign® - Invisalign® can give you the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted by wearing a series of invisible, removable and comfortable aligners. invisalign™ has been proven effective and is widely available: More than 70% of orthodontists in the US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign.
Braces
A digital impression of your mouth is made so that we can create a series of aligners made out of a clear plastic. Each pair of aligners is worn for about 22 hours every day; you will only take them out for meals and oral hygiene purposes. Every one or two weeks, you’ll move on to the next set of aligners. The longer the process continues, the closer your teeth move together. You should complete the series after about 12 months, though of course that time can vary. Like with braces, you’ll need to wear a retainer after the main treatment is complete.

Teeth Whitening
Don't settle for a lackluster smile. Boost your appearance and your confidence with professional teeth whitening. Dr. Kraft, Dr. Schrott and their associates offer in-office and take-home teeth whitening to eliminate stains and unveil brilliantly white smiles.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is everywhere – it's on the faces of many people you meet, though you may not know it. Your closest friends may have their teeth bleached or bonded. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, there were 2.69 million cosmetic dental patients in 2006. If you're considering cosmetic dental enhancements, you aren't alone!
General Dentistry
Healthy smiles that last a lifetime are built on regular preventive and general dentistry. Your insurance plan should fully cover two checkups and cleanings as well as a set of x-rays each year. Restorative treatments are usually covered at 80 and 50 percent, depending on which service you need. Of course, each plan is different. Contact your insurance provider to learn the specifics of your coverage.
