A dental implant is a small titanium post that we surgically place in the jaw to replace a missing tooth. Dental implants have revolutionized the way we treat tooth loss. Thanks to their many benefits, it's no wonder that implants have become the industry standard for tooth replacement. A veneer is a razor-thin shell, usually made from porcelain that we use to improve the appearance of an anterior (front) tooth. These teeth are in your visible smile line, making cosmetic issues much more noticeable. Veneers are designed to cover the visible portion of a tooth and can be used to correct a wide variety of cosmetic issues! A root canal is often required when an infection reaches the inner-most part of a tooth, usually due to tooth decay. This area, known as the pulp, contains the connective tissues, nerves, blood vessels that keep a tooth healthy and strong. If an infection reaches the pulp chambers, it can jeopardize the life of a tooth. Taking good care of your teeth and gums is an important part of life. A beautiful smile not only looks good, but it is also an indicator of your overall health. At Calapooia Family Dental, our goal is to help you maintain excellent oral health and improve your overall quality of life. |
  Meet Our DoctorsBrian R. Summers, DMD, PhD, has been a leader in dentistry for the Willamette Valley since establishing Calapooia Family Dental in 2015. He currently focuses on helping patients treat their sleep apnea or TMJ problems. Dr. Summers is also passionate about serving patients with special needs and medical complexities, helping with their challenging dental needs in the hospitals in Albany, Lebanon, and Corvallis. Dr. Summers was fortunate to work alongside one of the area's most respected dentists, Patrick V. Hagerty, DMD, for over two years, and was grateful to have Dr. Hagerty return in 2019 as the practice continued to grow. An Albany, OR native, Dr. Hagerty's focus has always been to provide exceptional dentistry for families in the Albany area since 1986. He has also dedicated himself to becoming the area's expert in implant dentistry, recording hundreds of hours of advanced training. After seeing individuals with special needs in the community go underserved, Dr. Hagerty created the largest private hospital dentistry program in the state of OR, which has since been expanded by Dr. Summers. |

See What Our Patients Are SayingDr. Summers and his staff are friendly, thorough and clearly enjoy what they do. This is the first office I've seen use 'ultrasonic' tools for cleaning, which seems less harsh on hard-to-reach areas between teeth. Thanks for the great treatment, I'll be back! - Kevin R. |
