Here at Laurich Dentistry, we aim to provide nothing but accurate, safe, compassionate and top-notch dental treatment and care to patients.

When you visit our clinic, you’ll have access to a state-of-the-art digital x-ray and intra-oral camera as needed. The process is fast, no-fuss and painless, and will allow your dentist to have a clear perspective on the state of your dental health. At the same time, you’ll gain more understanding of your condition and be more educated about how you can attain a healthier, more beautiful smile.
Dental x-rays have always played an important role in the advancement of dental services. Through x-ray technology, dentists are able to see and treat problems such as tooth decay and gum disease in their early stages aside from other unusual conditions that may not be visible to the naked eye.
– Faster processing
– the conventional method requires some waiting period for the dental film to be developed before the images can be seen. Now, captured images of the gums, teeth and facial bones can be seen instantly.
– The speedier process also reduces radiation exposure from the x-rays.
– Clearer, sharper and more accurate photos that lead to a more accurate diagnosis.
– Resulting images can be manipulated post-production to allow dentists to zoom in or enlarge details or adjust colors and brightness to make closer inspections.
Intra-oral cameras provide a complete and live view of your teeth and mouth. The dentist places this small device into your mouth, and the footage gets instantaneously broadcasted on the connecting monitor. As a result, you and your dentist can both see the captured images at the same time.
The use of the intra-oral camera offers the following benefits:
– You’ll be able to obtain a first-hand, close-up and real-time view of your teeth and gums – it’s like having a live tour of your mouth.
– The dental team will be able to easily share their observations on your oral health and explain the most suitable treatment options for your needs.

In today’s day and age, dentistry has perfected the art of caring for your teeth. Regular dental exams and cleanings, as well as preventive care like brushing and flossing your teeth, will help you keep your smile for life. However, sometimes proper maintenance of our teeth is not enough. If you have lost one or multiple teeth due to disease or injury, Laurich Dentistry can help your smile and your oral health return to normal.
Our Dentists will take special care to determine the proper restoration technique for your smile. We can see you in either our Farmington Hills or Livonia dental office to determine your specific dental implant needs. Because implants are so versatile, we can use them to replace one lost tooth, or we can use a number of implants to permanently attach a full denture or bridge.
Dr. Matthew Laurich traveled on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic, where he used his knowledge and skill to place free implants to help restore smiles. Back home in Michigan, Dr. Laurich is happy to meet with you at either of our dental offices in Farmington Hills and Livonia, to help you to restore your smile as well.
Dental implants are the most natural form to restore a missing tooth. An implant is a synthetic tooth root that is implanted into the jawbone. They are very strong, normally made of the same material used in many hip and knee replacements-titanium. We use this durable metal because it pairs so well with human bone. Once we have the synthetic tooth root or dental implant firmly in place, we attach either a permanent or removable replacement tooth to the root.
Dental implants offer the ability to restore the tooth most closely to its original function. Traditional dental bridges require the removal of healthy tooth structure to neighboring teeth and can present a food trap that may be difficult to clean. A dental implant does not rely on neighboring teeth for support, and they are just as easy to clean as your natural teeth.
Our implant services include:
Often the sinuses will enlarge following the loss of the upper back teeth. This can preclude placement of dental implants in the upper back areas of the mouth since the sinus is an air-filled space and dental implants need to be surrounded by solid bone. A sinus lift augmentation/graft is a surgical procedure that restores the sinus cavity to its original size and replaces the bone that has been lost as a result of the enlarged sinus. This new bone graft typically takes nine to 12 months to heal before the dental implants can be placed into the grafted bone.
When a tooth needs to be removed due to infection, it is not uncommon to have lost bone around the infected tooth. In these cases, various types of bone grafting can be done at the same time the tooth is removed to facilitate the placement of a dental implant at a later date.
We have incorporated advanced digital software throughout our Farmington Hills and Livonia offices that allow us to evaluate your dental CT scan in three dimensions for bone quality, bone quantity, and bone location, enabling the best possible placement of your dental implants.
It is important that you take good care of your dental implant, much like the rest of your mouth, in order to ensure optimal long-term results. Dental implants can accumulate plaque and tartar just as teeth can. Whether you have just one tooth replaced by an implant or several, professional cleanings at our Farmington Hills or Livonia dental offices will be necessary to keep your implants healthy. The time interval for these professional cleanings will be determined by your individual needs.
At Laurich Dentistry we make getting dental implants easy, simple and comfortable. If you are looking for a good implant dentist, you are in good hands!
A dental bridge may be used to replace missing teeth, help maintain the shape of your face, and alleviate stress on your bite.
A dental bridge replaces missing teeth with artificial teeth, looks great, and literally bridges the gap where one or more teeth may have been. Your bridge can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials, and is bonded onto surrounding teeth for support.
The success of any bridge depends on its foundation — the other teeth, gums, or bone to which it is attached. Therefore, it’s very important to keep your existing teeth, gums, and jaw healthy and strong. For more information on cosmetic or restorative dentistry contact us today for a free consultation. Our dental team is passionate about compassionate care, making you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in our office. We have two convenient locations to serve you, Livonia and Farmington Hills.
Crowns are a cosmetic restoration used to strengthen a tooth or improve its shape. Crowns are most often used for teeth that are broken, worn, or partially destroyed by tooth decay.
Crowns are “cemented” onto an existing tooth and fully cover the portion of your tooth above the gum line. In effect, the crown becomes your tooth’s new outer surface. Crowns can be made of porcelain, metal, or both. Porcelain crowns are most often preferred because they mimic the translucency of natural teeth and are very strong.
Crowns or onlays (partial crowns) are needed when there is insufficient tooth strength remaining to hold a filling. Unlike fillings which apply the restorative material directly into your mouth, a crown is fabricated away from your mouth. Your crown is created in a lab from your unique tooth impression which allows a dental laboratory technician to examine all aspects of your bite and jaw movements. Your crown is then sculpted just for you so that your bite and jaw movements function normally once the crown is placed.
