Six Dual-Trained Dental Specialists
When it comes to smile design, expertise makes all the difference.
A successful, aesthetic result requires teamwork between the dental surgeon and restorative dentist. Amsterdam Dental is proud to not only be home to one Periodontal-Prosthesis dual-trained specialist but six such professionals right here in the Philadelphia/Main Line area. In fact, there is no other practice that can make this claim anywhere in the world. But why is it so important?
Expertly trained at the world-renowned Periodontal Prosthesis program at Penn Dental Medicine, our six dual specialists are skilled in dental surgery to place implants accurately and adept in restorative dentistry to reconstruct implants esthetically and functionally. Together, we’ve mastered the association between implant placement and restoration with a greater understanding of how they influence each other. Understanding the inter-relationship between the gums, crowns, veneers, and implants is critical to achieving an outstanding long lasting cosmetic result.
The result ~ patients receive the best possible outcome and enjoy the benefits.

Our Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic Dentistry can do more than create a great smile; it can be emotional and life changing. Porcelain crowns, veneers, laminates and bonding are several of the customized treatments available to improve your smile – both esthetically and functionally. At Amsterdam Dental we have a meticulous process to create your future smile. It involves digitally designing your future smile so you can see yourself with a new smile, and be part of the architect team for your new smile. The smile is then created using the finest concepts, techniques, and materials.

Porcelain Crowns & Porcelain Veneers
Dental Implants are most often used to replace one or more missing teeth in order to improve both esthetics and function. In certain instances, these implants can be placed and temporarily restored on the same day, so you never leave the office without teeth.
Dental Implants
See your future smile. Digital Smile Design is the first step in achieving the most esthetic, functional and long-lasting results. With a combination of digital photography, software and dental arts techniques, a preview of the final smile is created and fine-tuned. The final smile design result is then used to mirror the digital view and ultimate esthetic smile.
Digital Smile Design
Healthy gums are more than important to oral health; studies have suggested a link between periodontal health and overall wellness. Our experienced team of periodontists provide periodontal care which may also include deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), gum surgery and gum grafts.
Periodontal Treatment
All-on-4® can give you the smile you always wanted
The SAME DAY, NEW TEETH treatment approach provides you a healthy, stable and esthetic result with a cost-effective, efficient, and comfortable procedure.
Same Day, New Teeth
When it comes to dental impressions, there is good news. The traditional “goop” has all but been replaced with 3D digital impressions. This new, highly preferred method is a key component in creating esthetic CAD/CAM restorations.
Digital Imaging
Whether it is filling a cavity, repairing a chipped tooth or closing a gap between front teeth, bonding or white filling materials are an excellent and cost-effective way to improve your smile or restore dental caries.
General Dentistry/Cleanings
Coffee, tea and wine are just a few of the common foods and drinks that can stain your teeth. Whitening (also known as bleaching) is a safe and effective way to restore teeth to a brighter whiter appearance.
Teeth Whitening
Ideal for patients of any age, Invisalign® aligners are the clear alternative to metal braces and a virtually invisible way to improve your smile. Each aligner is custom made using the most advanced techniques in order to create a better fit and achieve the results not only faster but with greater predictability and control.
