Featured Services
Implants
Dental implants provide a comfortable, permanent solution to lost teeth. The dental replacements are attached to titanium posts that actually fuse to your jawbone and become natural anchors, so your new teeth will remain securely in place without the need for messy adhesives. A fully restored smile is as healthy as it is beautiful by promoting bone growth and reducing the risk of receding gums.
More informationInvisalign
Custom-made to straighten your teeth, Invisalign® clear aligners are nearly invisible and made of a proprietary, multi-layer SmartTrack material, which gently shifts your teeth into place over time.

Our Dental Services
Corrective and Restorative Dental Services
You may be unhappy about the spacing or misalignment of your teeth, but you would like to know more about the options available. We encourage you to call us at 618-549-0208 and talk to our friendly, highly trained staff about the latest innovative orthodontic methods like Invisalign. Invisalign is a wonderful option for working adults because it produces similar results to traditional metal braces, but utilizes a series of custom-made, clear aligners that are virtually invisible. You are able to maintain your professional appearance and enjoy the dramatic improvement of properly aligned teeth without feeling self-conscious. Make University Place Dental your home for Invisalign in Carbondale!
Regardless of how meticulous you are about your oral health care, problems can always occur. These conditions can compound and lead to a bite misalignment, bone degeneration, or even further tooth loss. However, at University Place Dental, we can customize a treatment plan that will restore your smile and promote overall excellent oral health. Restoring your ideal dental structure not only improves your appearance and oral health but also prevents adjacent teeth from shifting and eliminates the discomfort of a misaligned bite.

Teeth Whitening
Over time, your teeth's natural whiteness can fade or become discolored as the result of diet, personal habits, or simply getting older. However, the teeth whitening procedures we offer here at University Place Dental can restore the brilliance of your smile. The Zoom! teeth whitening method has a proven track record of dramatically improving the whiteness of your smile by up to six shades in a very short amount of time. We would love to help you achieve a smile you're proud to show off.
Innovative Technology for Dental Care
We utilize the most advanced, up-to-date technology in order to diagnose and treat dental problems with the highest level of accuracy and effectiveness. You no longer have to deal with time-consuming, uncomfortable traditional dental x-rays. Instead, we use non-invasive, painless equipment to instantly produce high-resolution dental images that allow our dentist to identify problems that would normally remain undetectable and untreated.
We are able to reduce the duration of your dental visit by using the iTero Element digital scanner to quickly obtain an extremely high-quality image of your entire dental structure. With the iTero scanner, you are able to see not only the current condition of your teeth but also a before-and-after-simulation of your ideal smile – and this is all done without the discomfort of using dental trays and impression goo to produce a physical model.
