Owned by Dr. T.J. Ameredes, DDS, Advanced Dentistry’s cutting-edge technology and expertise in dental procedures are second to none and provide a safe, comfortable and family-friendly environment for patients. A graduate of the West Virginia University School of Dentistry, Dr. Ameredes is a staunch believer in continuing education and recently achieved the credentials necessary to be a Board-Certifi ed Implantologist through the ICOI (International Congress of Implantologists). “The offi ce’s mission is to provide a high-quality comprehensive approach to dentistry,” says Dr. Ameredes. “Our patients’ oral health, comfort, and dental experience are our primary concern. We’ve incorporated the latest technology and techniques to provide that high standard of care for all ages of patients. Advanced Dentistry is a true family practice that provides a majority of dental needs under one roof.” In addition to implants, Invisalign and pediatric dentistry, Advanced Dentistry off ers Oral Surgery, Endodontics, Orthodontics, Cosmetic Dentistry and all services under the comfort of a sedation option. The growing practice is very proud to have brought in Dr. David Mascio, a graduate of Walsh University outside of Akron, Ohio, and the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine, where he received his DMD.

It is also an excellent tool for diagnosing sleep apnea, ear, maxillary sinus, and respiratory tract diseases. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a game changer when it comes to dental radiographic imaging, allowing greater understanding of patients and moving imaging beyond pure diagnosis to include planned treatment simulations and image- guided treatments. The offi ce also uses a TRIOS scanner to take impressions that would otherwise be completed with an impression material. In addition to the equipment on the inside, Advanced Dentistry is undertaking a complete exterior renovation to the building, which will give the structure the modern, fresh look it warrants as well as contribute to the neighborhood feel of the practice. “The practice will be going through a complete overhaul,” says Dr. Ameredes. “Our focus is the patients. We feel if we provide the right environment and treat those patients as we would like to be treated, then we are successful.” The renovation is in keeping with the practice’s belief in being a good neighbor in the community, a belief that’s behind its sponsoring of local sports teams, community days, DARE programs and more. It also works with any active or veteran military service members to ensure their dental care is as aff ordable as possible within the varying plans.
