The patient is awake, and one of the side effects is that the medication is amnesic and patients remember very little of the procedure. Periodontics is the branch of dentistry that involves the supporting structures of the teeth. This includes both the bone that the root of the tooth sits in, as well as the gum that surrounds the tooth and protects the underlying bone. We are very skilled in holistic and biological dentistry and provide safe mercury removal and the nonmetallic restorative options. We are part of the ¼ of 1% of Dentists in the United States trained in safe mercury removal.
Red Laser
This improves the ability of the patient to taste their food better. We even have the option of a denture with a metal substructure that can be permanently screwed into implants very much like a permanent bridge. Smile Design & Wellness Center is an Innovative, Comprehensive, Biological Dental practice located in Viera, Florida. We pride ourselves in working as a team to provide exceptional dental treatment in a warm and caring environment.
Gummy Smile Treatment
It involves growth and development and the movement of teeth and bones into a healthier, more functional and more aesthetic position. He treated children and adolescents in his Rhode Island practice. In Florida he has chosen to limit his orthodontic treatment to minor cases involving Smile Design. With an extensive Orthodontic knowledge we are able to guide our patients as to their orthodontic options.
Platelet Rich Fibrin and Stem Cells
Smile Design & Wellness Center is proud to be one of the first practices in Brevard County to have digital X-rays. Most importantly they are significantly less in radiation, estimates are as high as 90% but probably more like 75% less than conventional. Health starts in the mouth with the importance of starting the process of chewing and digesting the food we eat to nourish our bodies. The importance of the Microbiome, particularly of the digestive system is paramount to health. The mouth is the beginning of this system and it’s Microbiome is related.
Partial dentures are fabricated when there are multiple missing teeth. For reasons of health, lack of remaining bone or financial situations, a partial denture may be the best option for the patient. We make different styles of partial dentures, from the traditional where the clasps are visible in the mouth to precision partial dentures that attach to crowns and look natural.
Although we do not provide orthodontic care for children in our practice, Dr. Edwards has 15 years of experience in treating children and adolescents with orthodontics. Many of the staff at Smile Design & Wellness Center are mothers and fathers and understand the importance of a positive dental experience for our children. Of course, our many forward thinking technologies enable us to treat children in a special way. With air abrasion and lasers we are often able to treat early decay without the need for a shot of local anesthetic.
Tooth decay is a condition that occurs when the enamel of a tooth is damaged due to acids produced by bacteria in your mouth. Neglecting to treat tooth decay can lead to various complications, such as pain, infection, and even the loss of the affected tooth. With improvements in materials, particularly with premium, natural looking denture teeth, we are able to create an esthetic restoration that can look completely natural. In many cases of severe break down and malformed, rotated, discolored teeth, the most aesthetic solution can be a denture.
This can be the tipping point between a tooth healing or needing a root canal. There is a secondary healing effect as the laser is being used; the coherent photons of light coming out of the end of the laser are able to penetrate into the pulp of the tooth. The cells in the pulp take up the light and enjoy a biologic effect of healing, reduced inflammation and stimulation of stem cells for repair.

The WaterlaseMD is also used to sterilize the canals in root canals and is effective in debridement of the sockets of extracted teeth, again killing bacteria and stimulating healing. The photons of light penetrate deep into the tissue and bone and stimulate the cells in a biological way. It encourages stem cells to differentiate into new tissue; it reduces inflammation, pain, and improves blood flow. We regularly use the low-level laser at the end of surgical treatments and very often the patients return for 2 or 3 more treatments over the next week. Patients are always pleasantly surprised that when lasers are used, there is such minimal postoperative discomfort after surgical procedures and how quickly they heal. Stem Cells have become accepted in medicine as a powerful healing modality.
Many of our healthy patients are having X-rays only every two years. Please browse through our website to learn more about our office and the services we provide. Our state of the art biological dentistry office is mercury free.
Depending upon the materials used, the quality of the teeth chosen and the skill of both the dentist and the laboratory technician, the result can have many different appearances. Injection molding of the pink denture base material is much more accurate than the traditional way that most Dentures are made. CEREC is a one visit 3D CAD/CAM technology to fabricate both crowns and bridges.
Tray whitening can be worn while sleeping, achieving optimal results in as little as 7 to 10 applications. For patients who do not want to sleep wearing the trays, excellent results can be obtained by using them in one hour sessions. Even dark tetracycline stained teeth will see a significant improvement with prescription strength whitening. We use Discus Zoom whitening products, considered the finest available today with minimal sensitivity and quick results. It measures the reflection (fluorescence) coming back at it, and creates a digital readout from 0 to 99. Decay is indicated by higher numbers and exposed decay will register a 99.
High-quality porcelain veneers to transform and perfect your smile with a natural, durable finish. Proactive care to prevent dental issues, keeping your smile healthy and bright for years to come. Comprehensive care for your overall oral health, from routine check-ups to complex dental needs. Dr. Brown believes that behind each smile is an individual with goals to live a healthy, productive life.
Most patients remark that they have never had as thorough an exam as we give at The Smile Design & Wellness Center. Resin veneers sometimes called Direct Bonding, or just Bonding, is another minimally invasive technique used at Smile Design. Today’s resins beautifully mimic natural tooth structure and often times a tooth that is misshapen, twisted, chipped or discolored can be made to look absolutely beautiful. It, often times, can be done in conjunction with a restorative filling or replacement of old fillings on the front teeth where it’s cosmetically visible. Whitening is one of the safest and most effective ways to improve one’s smile. Zoom is an in-office, one visit whitening system where the patient has their teeth whitened in 3-20 min. sessions.
The treatment of pockets, which are deeper areas under the gum, often involving loss of the supporting bone, are now commonly treated with lasers. Periodontal surgery can be necessary in situations such as Clinical Crown Lengthening, which is necessary when a tooth has decayed or broken below the gum. A surgery is necessary to lower the gum and bone to expose enough tooth structure for a final restoration. Other types of periodontal surgery include treatment of inadequate amounts of gum, which are frequently solved with grafting.
Lasers are just photons that are little packets of light that have wide ranging biologic effects. Surgical lasers are used to treat both hard and soft tissue, The tissue is happy to receive the energy and the remaining healthy tissue heals much faster with less pain. Lasers also kill bacteria and can be used to treat bacterial events such as dental caries and infection. The laser also can be used to drill a tooth is certain situations without the use of local anesthesia.
