Invisalign® at Our Indianapolis Family Dentistry Practice
We are proud to offer the revolutionary Invisalign® system at our Indianapolis family dentistry practice. Invisalign® tooth aligners are made of a strong, clear plastic that is virtually invisible. They are much more convenient and aesthetically pleasing than traditional metal braces, since there are no metal wires and brackets. The aligners are custom-crafted by the Invisalign® laboratory to fit over your teeth comfortably. During treatment, which typically lasts from 12 to 48 months, the aligners gently straighten your teeth and align your bite to restore beauty and health to your mouth. To find out if you or a member of your family is a good candidate for Invisalign®, schedule a consultation at our Indianapolis practice today.

Dental Implants at Our Indianapolis Dental Practice
Dental implants offer an exceptional alternative to traditional dentures and bridges for replacing missing teeth. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, made of pure titanium, that are permanently placed in the jawbone. A natural-looking replacement tooth is crafted and attached to the implant, restoring beauty to your smile and strength to your bite. With dental implants, you can regain the control you had with your natural teeth so that you can once again speak, chew, and smile with confidence. Dental implants may be the ideal tooth replacement option for you, whether you are missing one tooth, several teeth, or all of your natural teeth. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Tellman for more details about this exciting tooth replacement option.

Periodontal Care at Castleton Cosmetic & Family Dentistry in Indianapolis
Periodontal (gum) disease is one of the most common diseases in the United States, affecting about 80 percent of American adults to some extent. However, when detected and treated in the early stages, gum disease is one of the easiest diseases to control. Regular professional cleanings and periodontal examinations, along with a consistent oral hygiene regimen, are usually enough to maintain healthy gums. This is why regular visits to the dentist are so important, even if you feel that your mouth is healthy. Prevention is truly the best treatment in the case of periodontal disease.
If you currently have swollen, tender, or bleeding gums it is important to your dental health to seek treatment immediately. The sooner that you seek treatment, the more likely the progression of the disease can be arrested without extensive treatment, such as surgery. If left to develop, periodontal disease can ultimately destroy the gums, bones, and other supportive tissues and structures.
To learn more about how we can help you attain and maintain periodontal and oral health, contact Castleton Cosmetic & Family Dentistry and schedule an appointment with Dr. Tellman today.

Inlays and Onlays at Castleton Cosmetic & Family Dentistry
A safer alternative to traditional metal fillings, inlays and onlays are used to treat large areas of decay. Both inlays and onlays are made of strong, tooth-colored porcelain. Inlays are custom made to fit precisely into a cavity that is within the top projections (cusps) of a tooth, while onlays are used for a cavity that includes one or more of the cusps. Inlays and onlays are natural looking, durable, and can last a lifetime if cared for properly.
