Laser Dentistry
Lasers are safe and painless. Dentists use them for gum procedures to . Dental lasers are cutting-edge tools that Dr. Shulman uses to perform a variety of dental procedures. These lasers can help us remove decay, prepare teeth for fillings, reshape gums, and even whiten teeth.
They can also remove bacteria in deep pockets of the gums and reduce excessive bleeding and pain with certain dental procedures. By using laser technology, we can provide precise treatment that is less invasive and more comfortable for our patients than traditional methods.

Mouthguards
Protect your teeth from sports injuries and hits to the mouth by using a custom sports mouthguard. Dr. Shulman creates this specially-designed dental appliance to fit the unique shape of your mouth. It helps protect your teeth and gums from damage during contact sports or other activities involving physical contact.
Dr. Shulman will take an impression of your teeth to create a mold, which we will use to make a custom-fitted mouthguard that provides superior protection and comfort. It is important to wear a custom sports mouthguard whenever engaging in activities that could cause injury to your teeth or gums. To learn about our custom mouthguard service, visit Mouthguard.
Root Canal
Repair and save a severely damaged tooth with a root canal procedure from Dr. Shulman. During the procedure, our dentist will remove the infected or decayed pulp from the inside of your tooth, clean it out, and then fill it with a special material. This helps to prevent further damage to the tooth, restore its function, and save it from extraction. Dr. Shulman can complete a root canal procedure in one visit, but it will depend on how much dental work you need for a successful result. To learn about our root canal treatment, visit Root canal.
Sedation Dentistry
Dental sedation is a great option for people who fear the dentist, dental tools, and settings. Dental sedation is the use of medication to help our patients relax during dental procedures. We often provide dental sedation to reduce anxiety and pain, along with inhibiting the gag reflex and relaxing your nerves.
The most common type of sedation is nitrous oxide, sometimes called “laughing gas”, which delivers nitrous oxide gas through a mask that we place over our patient’s nose. The nitrous oxide helps the patient relax, while allowing them to remain conscious and alert throughout the procedure. Other types of dental sedation include oral-conscious sedation and IV sedation. To learn more about our dental sedation options, see Sedation dentistry.
Tooth Extraction
Dr. Shulman recommends tooth extractions when he discovers a damaged or decayed tooth that is beyond repair. For example, if he cannot fix a tooth using a filling, dental crown, or other dental treatment. Tooth extractions are also sometimes necessary to make space in the mouth for incoming teeth, to remove wisdom teeth, or to prepare for orthodontic treatment. To learn about our tooth extraction process, visit Tooth extraction.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry options not only improve the look of your teeth but can help improve your overall oral health. Straightening or whitening teeth can prevent dental problems from occurring down the road. Our cosmetic dentistry services include Invisalign, Porcelain veneers, tooth bonding, and teeth whitening.
Invisalign

With Invisalign, you can achieve the smile of your dreams without having to wear bulky metal braces! To learn about our Invisalign provider, see Invisalign.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a popular cosmetic dental procedure at our dental office. We can help you improve the appearance of your teeth using these thin shells of porcelain. This procedure involves placing thin layers of porcelain onto the surface of your teeth, which can mask any tooth stains, chips, or cracks in the enamel. Dr. Shulman can also use veneers to change the shape and size of your teeth, giving you a more even and attractive smile. Our porcelain veneers can last for many years with proper care and maintenance. To learn how we can improve the look of your teeth using porcelain, visit Porcelain veneers.
Tooth Bonding
Our tooth bonding service will cosmetically improve the look of your teeth. Similar to porcelain veneers, but only using a biocomposite resin, we can repair chips, cracks, fractures, and more. As long as the damage is not causing oral health issues, dental bonding can prove to be a very useful and inexpensive treatment. To learn about our tooth bonding service, visit Tooth bonding.
Teeth Whitening
Dr. Drew Shulman would not be a cosmetic dentist without providing teeth whitening services at our Philadelphia dental office. Whitening your teeth at the dentist is much safer and more effective than using whitening kits. The whitening products we use contain a higher concentration of bleaching agents than the kits you can buy over-the-counter, so the whitening process is much more effective.
You also have the benefit of having a full team behind you to ensure that your teeth and gums are protected from potential side effects. Finally, getting your teeth whitened at the dentist typically has longer-lasting results than using kits. The results of both types of whitening are long lasting, although some people may need touch ups every few months or years. To learn about our teeth whitening service, see Teeth whitening.
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry services repair damaged teeth and can protect your gum and tooth health. If you have missing teeth or are suffering from gum disease, we have treatments that will repair damage at the source. Our restorative dentistry services include dental bridges, dental implants, dentures, dental crowns, periodontal therapy, and TMJ treatments.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are a tried-and-true solution for replacing missing teeth. Dr. Shulman provides custom-fitted dental bridges. Our dental lab creates them from either porcelain or other materials and makes sure they will mimic the look and function of your teeth. Bridges are an ideal option for restoring the natural aesthetics and function of the smile, and can also help reduce risks for other dental issues, such as tooth decay.
With proper care and regular dental checkups, a dental bridge can last for over 10 years. We are pleased to offer dental bridges as a beneficial restoration for our patients. To learn more about them, visit Dental bridges.
Dental Implants
Effectively secure dental bridges and dentures, or replace your lost teeth using dental implants! Dental implants are a permanent solution to replace missing teeth. The process involves inserting a titanium implant post into the jawbone, which the dentist then tops with a crown that will look and function like a real tooth.
Dr. Shulman is a dental implant specialist that uses them to replace one or more lost teeth, and provide an excellent long-term result. After a dental exam, he will be able to assess your individual needs and determine whether dental implants are right for you. To learn more about our dental implant service, visit Dental implants.

Dr. Shulman will also be able to make any necessary adjustments to ensure that the dental prosthetic fits properly and functions correctly. To learn more about our denture service, visit Dentures and partials.
Dental Crowns
This “cap” covers and protects teeth. Dr. Shulman provides dental crowns to restore the strength, shape, and appearance of a damaged tooth. Using a dental crown, we can cover and protect the entire visible portion of a damaged or decayed tooth after a root canal procedure. However, we can also use a crown to improve the look of a misshapen or discolored tooth, as well as to hold a dental bridge in place. To learn how we can protect your weakened teeth from further damage using a crown, visit Dental crowns.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal Therapy is an important treatment for gum disease. Our dedicated team of dental professionals provide comprehensive periodontal care and treatment to keep your gums healthy and prevent the onset of gum disease. During a periodontal therapy session, we use specialized tools to clean and remove plaque and tartar from below and above the gum line. We can also provide deep cleaning to remove pockets of infection in order to encourage healing and improve your gums.
We may recommend follow-up treatments, such as antibiotics, laser therapy, or scaling, depending on the severity of the gum disease. To learn about our periodontal treatments, visit Periodontal therapy.
TMJ Treatment
At our dental office, we can treat patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. With the use of modern therapeutic techniques, we can help reduce discomfort and improve mobility of your jaw joints, allowing you to enjoy greater comfort and an improved quality of life.
Our treatments involve a detailed assessment of your symptoms and an overall diagnosis of the disorder. We provide orthodontic appliances such as mouthguards, occlusal splints and bite guards to reduce pain, improve jaw joint stability, and control teeth grinding. In addition, we can help reduce stress that contributes to TMJ disorders by suggesting relaxation techniques such as deep breathing and gentle stretches.
