Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve your appearance. A beautiful, bright, healthy smile can increase self-confidence and overall life satisfaction.
Many regular dental treatments can be performed using porcelain and composite materials instead of metal. Modern tooth-colored restorations are virtually invisible compared to traditional silver or gold. We offer smile-whitening, porcelain veneers, tooth-colored crowns and fillings and more to patients looking to brighten up their smiles.
One Visit Crowns
CEREC® is the world’s only system for the fabrication of all ceramic dental restorations in one office visit. With CEREC®, Dr. Kutsch and Dr. Bickler can complete your permanent, all-ceramic crown, onlay, or veneer in just one quick visit! This means fewer shots, less drilling, and less time out of your hectic schedule for dental care.
Porcelain Veneers
A porcelain laminate (or veneer) is a thin shell of porcelain that covers the front of each tooth. They bond directly to the front of the tooth, similar to the way artificial fingernails work. Each porcelain laminate is a work of art, carefully crafted in a laboratory to fit your individual smile.
One of the biggest benefits of porcelain veneers is that you can a total smile restoration without damaging your natural teeth. Veneers are stain-resistant, allow you to eat and have the lifestyle you’re accustomed to and require the same basic care as your natural teeth.
VELscope® Oral Cancer Screening
VELscope® is a revolutionary hand-held device that provides the dental team at Kutsch Dentistry with the ability to detect oral cancer and other abnormalities before they are visible with the naked eye.
This non-invasive device works by emitting a harmless blue light that allows Dr. Kutsch and Dr. Bickler to view the different fluorescence responses to help differentiate between normal and abnormal tissue. In fact, VELscope® is the only non-invasive adjunctive device clinically proven to help discover oral disease.
When utilized along with normal routine care, VELscope® provides a level of prevention previously unavailable. We’re proud to offer oral cancer screening to our patients with every appointment at no additional fee.
Oral Systemic Link
Having healthy teeth is part of the key to having a healthy body. Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is found in some form in 3 out of 4 Americans with 30% of those cases being more severe. The bacteria in the mouth can enter the rest of the body through saliva, the bloodstream, and aspiration into the lungs. Thus, increasing risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, abnormal birth weights, diabetes, and kidney problems.
In our dental practice, we treat periodontal disease and our hygienists are trained in providing laser bacterial reduction. This procedure helps eliminate bacteria from the gum tissue surrounding the teeth, thereby, helping increase healing and decrease risk of more significant medical problems.
CariFree® Cavity Screening
Recent findings have shown that sometimes good oral hygiene isn’t enough to stop cavities. Tooth decay is caused by a bacterial infection known as dental caries. Acids from sugars, foods, or medications can cause an oral environment at risk for cavities that can be measured with new PH detecting technology known as CariFree.
Dr. Kutsch promotes long-term dental health as an alternative to simply treating signs and symptoms by filling cavities. Dr. Kutsch can perform a quick, painless one-minute screening to determine your risk for cavities. If harmful decay-causing bacteria are identified, treatment of this infection may be recommended.
Dr. Kutsch of Albany, OR Now Offers 3D‑Guided Placement of Implants
Dr. Kutsch uses the latest technology to place implants. The X-Guide™ system allows precise planning, navigation, and placement. The unique system integrates with Dr. Kutsch’s cone-beam 3D scanner which gives him the ability to “see” inside your jaw in a 3D space while he’s placing your implants. It guides the precise position, angle, and depth for the implant, enabling Dr. Kutsch to be able to place implants faster with more precision which will give you the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.

This means your implant procedure will be minimally-invasive with smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery. This technology has been used in neurosurgery for years, and now comes to Albany at Dr. Kutsch’s office.
Perio Protect® Treatment
A comprehensive approach to gum disease treatment, Perio Protect combines dental cleanings with the comfortable Perio Tray® delivery of medication that patients use at home between office visits. The Perio Tray is similar to a mouth-guard, but it has a special sealing system to deliver medication below the gums. You put medication in the tray and wear it for a few minutes a day. The medication fights the infections. It’s that easy.
