Robotic-Assisted Dental Implants
Robotic-assisted implants use 3D jaw mapping to plan the exact position, depth, and angle of each implant before surgery begins. Dr. Gutt relies on this guided approach to reduce guesswork, shorten appointment times, and give patients in Miami and Key West a smoother recovery than traditional freehand placement.
LNAP Laser Treatment
LNAP laser treatment removes diseased gum tissue while leaving healthy tissue untouched, cutting down on bleeding and healing time compared to traditional gum surgery. Dr. Gutt often recommends it for patients with early gum disease who want a quick, low-downtime option that fits into a busy schedule.
Periodontal Treatment
Periodontal treatment targets infection below the gumline before it reaches the bone holding teeth in place, usually starting with a deep cleaning called scaling and root planing. Dr. Gutt builds a maintenance schedule around each patient’s gum health, since untreated gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss.
Bone Loss Treatment
Bone loss treatment, or bone grafting, rebuilds jaw structure lost to missing teeth, gum disease, or old injuries so future dental work has a stable foundation. Dr. Gutt matches the grafting material and technique to the size of the loss, giving patients across Miami and Key West a path back to implant candidacy.
Tooth Extraction
Tooth extraction removes a tooth that is too damaged, infected, or crowded to save, ranging from a simple pull to surgical removal of an impacted wisdom tooth. Dr. Gutt reviews X-rays beforehand and provides clear aftercare instructions, often discussing replacement options like implants or bridges during the same visit.
Bruxism/Teeth Grinding
Bruxism, or chronic teeth grinding, shows up as jaw soreness, headaches, and flattened or chipped teeth, often triggered by stress or an uneven bite. Dr. Gutt typically recommends a custom nightguard, sometimes paired with an occlusal adjustment, to protect teeth and ease jaw strain overnight.
Occlusal Adjustment
An occlusal adjustment reshapes small areas of tooth enamel so the upper and lower teeth meet evenly, spreading chewing force across the whole arch instead of a few teeth. Dr. Gutt uses this quick, in-office procedure to relieve jaw pain, uneven wear, and bite issues left behind by bruxism or recent dental work.
TMJ Therapy
TMJ therapy addresses pain and stiffness in the jaw joint, which can make chewing, yawning, or talking uncomfortable. Depending on the cause, Dr. Gutt may recommend a custom oral appliance, physical therapy exercises, or a bite correction to relieve pressure on the joint for patients throughout Miami and Key West.
Oral Cancer Screenings
An oral cancer screening is a quick visual and physical exam of the mouth, tongue, throat, and neck, checking for sores, unusual patches, or lumps. Dr. Gutt includes this screening during routine checkups at least once a year, more often for patients with higher risk factors like tobacco or heavy alcohol use.
