Such a nice office

The experience I had at the office was good. The inside of the office is like no other dental office. Everybody was super nice and my dental experience was good and I am very afraid of the dentist.

Friendly staff

Dr. T and her staff have been great. After many years of crooked teeth, she was the first to suggest I look into Invisalign braces. It was the best treat I have done for myself ever! I now have a smile I am proud of and have Dr. T to thank for that.

I'm just glad the braces are off

At times, it was intense and hurt a bit but in the end, it was worth not having braces. :)

Christine Tenaglia, DDS

Dental Examination
If you are unable to adjust to wearing your CPAP mask, the first step is to tell your physician and request that they refer you to Dr. Tenaglia. Dr. Tenaglia will perform a comprehensive exam of the head, neck, gums, and airway. She will take measurements as well as determine jaw positioning and other physical attributes in order to create a custom appliance based on your individual needs.
X-rays

Teeth Cleaning
Since 1992, Dr. Christine Tenaglia has perfected treatment in general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, and reconstructive dentistry. General dentistry refers to non-specialized maintenance, such as dental cleanings and filling, root canals and dental bridges. These procedures are usually medically necessary but may not affect the appearance of your teeth.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are typically used to protect the back teeth, where tooth decay happens most frequently. A sealant is a material made of a plastic resin that is generally placed on the molars. The sealant’s plastic resin sticks in the grooves and depressions of the back teeth’s chewing surfaces. The sealant is essentially a barrier and it protects the enamel from bacteria that, when combined with sugar, produces acid that eats a hole in your tooth causing a cavity. Sealants are useful because while flossing and brushing removes bits of food, there are usually still bacteria left wedged deep in the back teeth. Effective sealants help prevent bacteria from ever getting stuck in these hard-to-reach nooks. For sealants that will help prevent cavities and promote a healthy smile, consider our sealants in Okemos today!

Fillings
Mercury is one of the most dangerous and harmful substances on Earth. It has been scientifically proven to cause severe illness and even death, in cases of consumption. However, many people are unaware that this deadly substance is highly present in silver amalgam dental fillings, a popular type of filling. In fact, mercury makes up about 50 percent of amalgam fillings and they have been known to deteriorate over time. When the fillings deteriorate, the mercury gets consumed or absorbed into the patient’s body, thereby negatively affecting their health. Every day, patients who have amalgam fillings do things that further contribute to the degradation of these mercury-filled fillings, including doing daily activities like brushing, eating, and chewing.
Resin Composite
Tooth colored fillings are made out of a composite resin that is completely free of mercury and other harmful substances. In addition, they are the same color as your teeth and are virtually entirely unnoticeable to other people. These types of fillings have proven to be just as effective as amalgam fillings, if not more so. They are strong, natural-looking, and long-lasting. For all your cavities, decayed teeth, and more, use the mercury free/tooth colored fillings at Dr. Tenaglia’s office. With us, we can help you get the safe and effective treatment you and your smile deserve.
Veneers
If you have misaligned, discolored, chipped, or stained teeth, porcelain veneers (which include Lumineers) are a permanent, painless, and safe solution. In some instances, they may require little to no local anesthetic.
Crowns
Dental porcelain has the ability to be molded and sculpted to look virtually the exact same as natural tooth enamel, while simultaneously providing significant resilience and strength. Crowns made out of dental porcelain are one of the best choices for patients who wish to recreate the function and form of their original teeth. These crowns essentially take the place of the whole external portion of a damaged tooth all the way to the gums. Porcelain crowns not only serve to replace the damaged tooth for health reasons, but also to give you a tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth.
Bridges
A dental bridge is another way you can attain a healthy and natural looking smile in as few as two quick visits to our office. The dental experts at Christine Tenaglia, DDS are highly skilled and experienced in implementing dental bridges in Okemos. Over the past 25+ years, Dr. Tenaglia has helped countless patients attain the smile they’ve dreamed of by using various treatments, including dental bridges. Regardless of how many teeth you are missing or how damaged they are, our proficient dental team can help you and your smile today.
Dental Bonding
Bonding – Dental bonding is a tooth-colored composite material that is pliable so that the dentist can mold and shape it to match surrounding teeth. Teeth that have little decay or chipped can benefit from bonding because it covers the tooth surface. Then, a special light cures the material, and becomes hard like tooth enamel.

Root Canal Treatment

Dentures
Once they’re properly fitted and adjusted, custom made appliances (using high-quality materials) are durable, portable, and easy to use and maintain. Following brushing your teeth, you should brush your oral appliance and return it to its protective case out of reach of small children and pets. Then, once per week, soak it in denture cleanser during the day to remove any micro bacteria build-up that could cause odor or stains.

Dental Implants
When you have missing teeth or teeth that need to be removed for health reasons, you may be considering a permanent solution. At our dental office, we offer the perfect option: Dental implants. Dental implants take the place of your missing teeth and look and function like your original teeth.

Orthodontics
The simplest remedies for treating sleep apnea include weight loss and behavioral modifications, such as changing sleeping positions and avoiding alcohol or heavy meals after 8 p.m. Other interventional therapies being used are CPAP/BiPAP, surgery, somnoplasty, oral appliances, and herbal remedies. Recently, developments of oral maxillary complex with controlled arch orthodontics offers a more permanent solution.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Have questions about Invisalign ? Read through our commonly asked questions below to see how we can help give you the smile you have always dreamed of!
Braces
Orthodontic treatment usually requires two separate periods of treatment: The active stage and retention stage. The active stage refers to the time when we are guiding the movement of teeth into their proper positions. The retention stage occurs after braces are removed and the tooth alignment is being held in place for a period of time with retainers.
