Comprehensive dental care in Rocky Hill, Connecticut

Connecticut Family Dental Group has treated families in Rocky Hill and the surrounding Hartford County towns for over 25 years. General, restorative, cosmetic and pediatric dentistry are all provided in the same office by Dr. Joseph S. Ciarcia and Dr. Dominic L. Fusco III, which means a family can be seen in one place and a treatment plan does not have to be split between practices.

General and preventive

• Comprehensive oral exams — A full assessment of teeth, gums, bite and soft tissue, and the starting point for any treatment plan.
• Dental cleanings — Professional removal of the plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing cannot reach.
• Preventive program — Ongoing care designed to stop small problems becoming expensive ones.
• Digital radiography — Dental X-rays captured digitally, with less radiation than film and instant results.
• Pediatric dentistry — Gentle care for infants, children and teenagers, including first visits and cavity prevention.

Restorative

• Dental fillings — Repairing cavities and restoring the shape and function of a tooth.
• Crowns and caps — Full coverage for teeth that are cracked, worn or heavily filled.
• Dental bridges — Replacing one or more missing teeth using the neighbouring teeth for support.
• Dentures — Full and partial dentures to restore chewing, speech and facial support.
• Dental implants — Replacing the root and crown of a missing tooth without altering the teeth beside it.
• Root canal treatment — Removing infected pulp to save a tooth that would otherwise be lost.
• Tooth extractions — Removing a tooth that is damaged, decayed or crowding others.
• Periodontal treatment — Treating gum disease before it damages the bone that holds teeth in place.

Cosmetic

• Porcelain veneers — Thin custom shells that cover chips, gaps, worn edges and deep staining.
• Teeth whitening — Professional whitening, including in-office Zoom! treatment.

Questions about our services

What dental services does Connecticut Family Dental Group offer?

The practice provides general and preventive care (exams, cleanings, a preventive program, digital X-rays), restorative treatment (fillings, crowns and caps, bridges, dentures, dental implants, root canals, extractions), periodontal treatment, pediatric dentistry, and cosmetic dentistry (porcelain veneers, Zoom whitening, Invisalign clear aligners).

Can my whole family be treated at the same practice?

Yes. The practice treats infants, children, teenagers and adults, so families do not need to split appointments between a pediatric office and a general one.

How often should I have a dental exam and cleaning?

Most patients are advised to have an exam and professional cleaning every six months. Patients with a history of gum disease, heavy tartar build-up or a high cavity rate are sometimes asked to come more often. Your dentist will tell you what applies to you.

Which service do I need if a tooth hurts?

Start with a comprehensive oral exam. Pain can come from decay, a cracked tooth, an infected nerve, gum disease or a failing restoration, and the treatment is different in each case. Call (860) 756-5423 and describe what you are feeling.
