Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are thin, shell-like coverings that cover the frontal surface of teeth and conceal various dental imperfections. With porcelain or ceramic veneers, we can address different dental issues such as chipped teeth, broken or cracked teeth, tooth staining, discoloration, gaps between teeth, and minor misalignment. The procedure is minimally invasive and requires two visits at our dental practice. You can notice a dramatic transformation in your smile with dental veneers.
Teeth Whitening
Have your teeth gotten dull or yellowish over time? Pigments from food and drinks can stain the tooth enamel, lowering the aesthetic appeal of your smile. We offer professional teeth whitening to brighten up your smile within a single appointment! If you want a more convenient option, we also provide customized whitening trays to help you achieve the desired goals from the comfort of your home. Our teeth whitening system is safe and provides much better results than store-bought products.
Dental Fillings
If your teeth are damaged, broken, or decayed, we can restore their optimum form with tooth-colored dental fillings. They blend in perfectly with the natural shade of your teeth, restoring your oral functions and smile aesthetics.

Dental Crowns
Dental crowns or tooth caps are versatile treatment options because they offer restorative and cosmetic benefits. We use crowns to cover and protect damaged, broken, weakened, or discolored teeth. They offer excellent aesthetics, adding to the beauty of your smile.
Dental Bridges
If you are missing one or more adjacent teeth within a row and prefer a permanent restoration, dental bridges are the best option for you. By using natural teeth or dental implants as supportive pillars, dental bridges fill the missing space with artificial teeth that look and feel just like natural ones.
DENTAL IMPLANTS
All-on-4 Dental Implants
Losing teeth takes a toll on your mental and physical aspects of health. While dentures might work well, what if you could have a permanent solution for this? Dr. Vijay Maheshwari at Infuse Dental of Schererville has something in store for you. You can finally say goodbye to taxing maintenance of dental prosthetics with the help of our all-on-four dental implants in Crown Point, IN.
They have taken the world by storm since they only require four implants to up-hold an entire arch of teeth. We fix them to a dental prosthesis containing 10 to 12 artificial teeth for full mouth support. It is time for you to get an everlasting, durable, and affordable treatment to replace a full set of teeth.

Dental Cleanings
We offer biannual dental exams and cleanings to keep your teeth and gums free of oral issues. Routine dental cleanings prevent cavities and gum disease, maintaining optimum oral health.
Dental Sealants
As a part of preventive dentistry, we provide dental sealants that fill in deep grooves and pits on the chewing surfaces of teeth to prevent dental cavities. They also smoothen the tooth surface, making it easier to clean your teeth.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride is a natural mineral that strengthens the tooth enamel. With prophylactic fluoride treatments, your kids can have a caries-free smile for years to come. It is also beneficial for adults who are at high risk of dental caries.
Gum Disease
It is an advanced technique that involves the placement of an antibiotic directly beneath the gum line to kill harmful oral bacteria.
Pediatric Dentistry
At Infuse Dental, we offer pediatric dentistry in Crown Point, IN, to maintain the radiant, healthy smiles of your little ones.
Root Canals
When tooth decay progresses and involves the dental pulp, you may experience severe pain and discomfort. Our dentists can save the remaining tooth structure with root canal treatment. We will extract the damaged pulp and seal the canals with a rubbery material to prevent reinfection.
PREVENTATIVE DENTISTRY
What Services Fall Under Preventative Dentistry?
Dental Exams and X-Rays:
Dental exams and X-rays are an essential part of oral health. During a dental exam, Dr. Vijay Maheshwari will assess the overall health of your mouth, teeth, and gums. The dental X-ray provides detailed images of dental structures that cannot be seen by the naked eye, ranging from decay under the surface of a tooth to impacted teeth or infection in the jawbone. Dental exams and X-rays allow us to diagnose problems early and nip them in the bud before they become serious, providing protection for your long-term dental health and saving time and money down the line.
Dental Cleanings:
Dental cleanings are an essential part of dental hygiene and should not be overlooked. Regular cleanings help remove plaque buildup on your teeth and reveal any dental problems that need attention. These visits to the dental office may sound intimidating because of the instruments used. Still, a dental cleaning should be seen for what it is—a dental check-up done with the techie gadgets dental professionals know and love! Make sure you enjoy a dental check-up every six months to keep those pearly whites sparkling! Maintaining your dental hygiene up-to-date is essential—it can prevent dental problems from occurring or help detect them early so you can easily manage them.
Dental Sealants:
Dental sealants are an essential but often overlooked dental service. They are a thin, plastic-based coating applied to the chewing surfaces of teeth to create an invisible shield that prevents food particles, plaque, and other substances from settling into deeper parts of the teeth where cleaning is difficult. This barrier helps keep teeth clean and healthy, reducing tooth decay by up to 80%. Dental sealants have also been found to be beneficial at any age – even for adults!
Dental Fluoride:
Dental fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral found in water and other substances. It is a crucial element in dental health, as it helps to reduce the risk of tooth decay and cavities. When dental fluoride is absorbed into the dental enamel, it strengthens the enamel and increases its resistance to acid. This resistance, in turn, reduces the likelihood of cavities forming.
Gum Disease Treatment:
Gum disease treatment is an important part of gum health and can help alleviate the symptoms and long-term damage caused by gum diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis. Treatment options vary depending on factors such as the gum disease’s severity and overall gum health. Still, they can include medicated mouthwashes, antibiotics, scaling and root planing to remove bacteria deep in the gum pocket, gum or bone grafts, or dental implants. No matter what treatment you require, we must detect gum disease early to halt its progression without causing further problems to your oral hygiene.
