Dr. Drew Shulman and his team focus on giving patients complete and professional dental care. Whether you need a routine cleaning or help with a more serious dental problem, we’ve got the services you need. Our dental office is conveniently located in Northeast Philadelphia, serving nearby communities. We aim to help you achieve a healthy, confident smile that lasts.
General Dentistry
General dentistry focuses on preventing and treating common dental problems. It’s important to visit us twice a year for cleanings and check-ups. This helps us catch any issues early and keep your smile healthy. We offer a range of general dental services designed to meet your needs.
Dental Fillings
If you have a cavity or a damaged tooth, Dr. Drew Shulman can fix it with a modern white filling. Fillings treat tooth decay and can repair chips and cracks. Depending on your needs, Dr. Shulman will recommend the right type of filling.
A filling restores the tooth’s shape and strength, preventing further damage. Learn more about the process by visiting our Dental Fillings page.
Emergency Dentistry
If you’ve had a dental emergency, like knocking out a tooth or breaking one, don’t wait. Call Dr. Shulman for urgent care. He treats all kinds of dental emergencies, such as severe toothaches, broken teeth, and lost fillings.
Not only can Dr. Shulman repair the problem, but he can also relieve pain caused by infection or injury. After treating the emergency, we will take steps to prevent further damage. Learn more about our emergency services by visiting our Emergency Dentistry page.
Family Dentistry
Dr. Shulman provides dental care for patients of all ages. This means the whole family can get the dental care they need, from kids to adults. Regular check-ups, cleanings, and fillings are just a few of the services we offer. Family dental care helps catch problems early and keep everyone’s teeth healthy. To learn more, visit our Family Dentistry page.
Laser Dentistry
Dr. Shulman uses advanced dental lasers to make treatments faster, safer, and less painful. Lasers can remove decay, reshape gums, and even whitening teeth. We also use lasers to treat gum disease by removing bacteria from deep pockets in the gums.
Lasers cause less bleeding and discomfort than traditional tools. With laser technology, we can offer you a more comfortable experience during your visit. Learn more about these treatments by visiting our Laser Dentistry page.
Custom Mouthguards
If you or your child plays sports, protecting your teeth is important. Dr. Shulman can create a custom mouthguard to fit your mouth perfectly. Unlike store-bought mouthguards, a custom one provides better comfort and protection.
We take an impression of your teeth to make sure the mouthguard fits just right. It’s essential to wear a mouthguard during contact sports to prevent damage to your teeth and gums. Learn more by visiting our Mouthguard page.
Root Canal Treatments
A root canal can save a tooth that has been severely damaged or infected. During this procedure, Dr. Shulman removes the infected pulp inside the tooth. After cleaning the tooth, he fills it with a special material to keep it strong and healthy. Dr. Shulman can complete root canals in one or two visits, depending on how much work you need. To learn more about this treatment, visit our Root Canal page.
Sedation Dentistry
For patients who are anxious about dental work, we offer sedation dentistry. This helps you relax during treatment and reduces any pain or discomfort. The most common type of sedation is nitrous oxide, also known as “laughing gas.”
You breathe in the gas through a mask, and it helps you feel calm while staying awake and aware of what’s happening. We also offer oral sedation and IV sedation for those who need a deeper level of relaxation. Learn more about these options by visiting our Sedation Dentistry page.
Tooth Extractions
Sometimes, a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be repaired. In these cases, Dr. Shulman may recommend a tooth extraction. This also makes room for new teeth, remove wisdom teeth, or prepare for braces. Tooth extractions are safe and common, and we’ll make sure you’re comfortable during the process. For more information, visit our Tooth extraction page.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry not only helps improve how your teeth look, but it can also keep your mouth healthy. Straightening or whitening teeth can stop future problems. At our office, we offer several cosmetic dentistry services like Invisalign, porcelain veneers, tooth bonding, and teeth whitening.
Invisalign
Invisalign is a clear, removable aligner that helps straighten your teeth. It can fix problems like crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Dr. Shulman creates a custom treatment plan just for you after checking your needs and goals.
With Invisalign, you can achieve a straight smile without wearing metal braces. These aligners are almost invisible, so you can smile with confidence throughout the process. If you’d like to learn more about how Invisalign works, check out our Invisalign page.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a popular choice to improve the look of teeth. These thin shells cover the front of your teeth, hiding any stains, chips, or cracks. Dr. Shulman can also use veneers to change the shape or size of your teeth. This makes your smile more even and attractive.
Veneers are durable and can last for years if you take good care of them. To learn how porcelain veneers can enhance your smile, see our Porcelain Veneers page.
Tooth Bonding
Tooth bonding is a quick and cost-effective way to improve your smile. It is similar to veneers but uses a resin material instead of porcelain. Dr. Shulman can fix small issues like chips, cracks, or gaps between teeth with bonding.
This treatment is a great option if the damage isn’t affecting your oral health. It’s less expensive than veneers but can still give you a great-looking smile. Learn more about tooth bonding by visiting our Tooth Bonding page.
Teeth Whitening
One of the most common cosmetic treatments is teeth whitening. Dr. Shulman offers professional whitening that is much more effective than over-the-counter kits. The products we use have stronger bleaching agents, giving you better and longer-lasting results.
Plus, when you whiten your teeth at the dentist, we make sure your gums and teeth are protected during the process. This reduces the chance of side effects like sensitivity. To learn more about our teeth whitening service, see our Teeth whitening page.
Restorative Dentistry
If you have damaged or missing teeth, our restorative dentistry services can help fix your smile. Restorative treatments can repair damage and protect your gums and teeth from future problems. We offer a variety of services, including dental bridges, implants, dentures, crowns, periodontal therapy, and TMJ treatments.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. Dr. Shulman customizes each bridge to fit your mouth. Our lab makes these bridges from materials like porcelain, which looks and works like natural teeth.
Bridges not only improve your smile but also help prevent other dental issues, such as tooth decay. With regular care, a dental bridge can last for over 10 years. To learn more about dental bridges, see our Dental Bridges page.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a permanent way to replace missing teeth. The process starts with placing a small titanium post into your jawbone. This acts like a tooth root. Then, a crown is placed on top, which looks and works like a real tooth.
Implants can also secure dental bridges or dentures. Dr. Shulman is a specialist in implant dentistry and will check if implants are the right solution for you. For more information, see our Dental implants page.
Dentures and Partials
Dentures are used to replace several or all missing teeth. Dr. Shulman can create custom dentures that fit your mouth perfectly. These dentures can be either removable or fixed in place. Dentures improve the look, function, and health of your mouth. Dr. Shulman will also make sure your dentures fit well and feel comfortable. To learn more about our denture services, see our Dentures and Partials page.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns, often called caps, cover and protect a damaged tooth. Dr. Shulman uses crowns to restore the strength, shape, and appearance of a weak or decayed tooth. Crowns are often used after root canals or to cover a misshapen or discolored tooth. Crowns can also hold a dental bridge in place. If you want to learn more about how dental crowns can help, see our Dental crowns page.
Periodontal Therapy
Healthy gums are just as important as healthy teeth. If you have gum disease, Dr. Shulman offers periodontal therapy to treat it. This treatment involves removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line. Sometimes, deep cleaning is needed to remove pockets of infection.
Periodontal therapy can help your gums heal and keep them healthy in the long term. We may suggest follow-up treatments like antibiotics, laser therapy, or scaling and root planing. Learn more about gum health by visiting our Periodontal Therapy page.
TMJ Treatment
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders can cause pain and stiffness in the jaw. Dr. Shulman offers treatments to help improve jaw movement and reduce pain. After a thorough check-up, he will create a plan to address your symptoms. This often includes using custom mouthguards, occlusal splints, or bite guards.
These devices help stabilize the jaw and reduce grinding, which can worsen TMJ issues. Dr. Shulman may also suggest ways to manage stress, which can make TMJ symptoms worse. To learn more about TMJ treatment, see our TMJ Treatment page.
Implant Dentistry
If you need a permanent solution for missing teeth, Dr. Shulman is your go-to implant specialist. We guide you through the entire process, from planning the treatment to performing the surgery and checking in after. Implants can restore both the look and function of your smile, giving you long-term results. Dr. Shulman is here to make sure the process is smooth and successful.
