An important component of dental health is the alignment of your teeth and the manner in which the upper and lower teeth come together when you bite. Referred to on the professional level as “occlusion,” the manner in which you bite can impact your overall oral health because of the massive force generated by the jaw and its muscles. If this force is not spread out and evenly distributed, it can cause serious and possibly irreversible damage to teeth, gums, jaw muscles, and bone structure. The negative consequences of a bad bite are potentially so severe that Dr. Jonathan Van Dyke, Dr. Brian Garcia, and Island Tower Dentistry offer bite analysis as one of their services as part of their Marco Island, Florida dental care practice.
Your Marco Island dentist visit includes a visual inspection of occlusion as part of a regular checkup. But if you are experiencing any of the above mentioned symptoms, or just want peace of mind with regard to the condition of your bite, Dr. Van Dyke, Dr. Garcia, and their team also offer the latest in digital occlusal analysis. With high-tech pressure mapping, force measurement, and tactile sensors, Island Tower Dentistry utilizes T-Scan™ to reveal the level and timing of force on each individual tooth, as well as the occlusal stability of the overall bite. T-Scan™ provides baseline occlusion data on new patients that can be monitored for any future changes, and can help easily diagnose bad bite issues that may be affecting existing Naples, Florida-area dental patients.
Depending upon the severity of the occlusal disease, Dr. Van Dyke and Dr. Garcia may be able to correct the bad bite in-office at his Marco Island dentistry practice. Crowns and veneers can be used to correct many bad bite cases, which, along with restoring occlusion, can also provide dental patients with a brighter, more youthful-looking smile. Depending upon the severity, malocclusion-based crown and veneer work can usually be completed within a month. More severe bad bite cases may require orthodontics, which can take several years to complete and may also call for crowns and veneers upon completion in order to restore enamel.
Dr. Van Dyke, Dr. Garcia, and their highly qualified team of dental hygienists, dental assistants, and Marco Island office support staff stand ready to check the condition of your bite and assist you with all of your dental needs.

I live on the southeast coast of Florida but on a recent trip to Marco Island I a crown fell off . I called Island Tower Dentistry and Dr. Van Dyke got me in within a few hours and flawlessly, quickly and painlessly recemented my crown. A great experience.

Island tower dentistry makes me feel like family the second I walk into the door. The staff is very professional! I would highly recommend !
Wonderful staff and Dr! I had my first ever root canal and crown done at ITD. The fitment and procedure was top notch using the latest technology. I also had a dental cleaning from Gloria. She was very pleasant and informative. Would recommend to anyone visiting or living in the area!
Tanya did an outstanding job cleaning my teeth. I’ve been going there for years and can attest to the fact that they are excellent, professional, caring, and willing to help no matter the circumstances.
As with every visit, I have received courteous and gentle care (and painless shots) from these dental professionals. I recommend Island Tower Dentistry to one and all.
I was on vacation and lost my dental bridge (front teeth!) in the ocean. ITD got me in the next day and provided a replacement the same day. It saved my vacation!
As a patient at Island Tower Dentistry I feel grateful for the safe and efficient way the office is run. They provide exceptional service and find same day appointments when needed. I highly recommend Island Tower Dentistry and Dr Van Dyke.
Just had a session with a first class hygienist. She was exceptionally professional in her manner and technique.
Dr Van Dyke did an excellent job putting a new crown on one of my chipped teeth. Dr Van Dyke was very professional and explained each step of the procedure to me. And as always Island tower staff was excellent.
I called Dr. Van Dyke’s office and explained my emergency situation. I was then told to come right over and would be squeezed in. My problem was then rectified very quickly. All future options were explained in detail. Doctor and staff are top notch!

Dr. Van Dyke is very friendly and super handsome. All the staff are smiling and helpful. A+ experience and highly recommend.
From the greeting at reception to the pain of payment (no help from Novocaine), Dr. Van Dyke’s crew do a terrific job. Cody is a fantastic, skilled, caring hygienist…and painless!
