Sometimes when placing implants, a person’s sinus is “in the way” and prevents the implants from simply being placed.  While that may be an initial set back, it does not mean that implants are not possible.

The sinus lift procedure is simply that, lifting the sinus.  In many situations, the sinus can be “bumped” at the time the implant is placed.  This requires extra steps and materials, but is pretty straightforward.  in the case where there is very little bone and very large sinuses, a much more involved and phased method is used.

If you would like to replace missing teeth and have been told your sinuses present a problem, Dr Timmerman would love to help.  Call 206-241-5533!

A common issue today is receding gums.  In the past, it was said someone was old when they got “long in the tooth”, meaning receding gums was a sign of aging.  As the gums recede, so does the bone and tooth loss can be a result.  Exposed root surfaces can be sensitive with no real long term alternative solution available.

Dr Timmerman offers minimally invasive treatment to put the gums BACK!  A fairly quick procedure, Dr Timmerman can create thicker tissues or cover up the receeding areas.  If you have receding gums, in one area or several, call 206-241-5533 to find out what can be done for YOU!

Dr Timmerman has helped many people get their teeth as white as possible, but the challenge has always been KEEPING their teeth white.  As time goes on, all bleaching methods fade and teeth start to yellow again.  Some methods last longer than others, but maintenance is needed.

Dr Timmerman offers FREE maintenance for those with take home trays.  There are conditions, but it comes down to keeping recare appointments.  If you come get your teeth cleaned as recomended, bleaching gel will be dispensed at the end of the appointment!

Call 206-241-5533 for more details.
