Checkups

The American Dental Association recommends you see your dentist at least twice each year for a checkup. At your checkup, we will inspect your soft tissues for oral cancer, periodontal disease, and other problems. The dentist will also look at each tooth in your mouth to assess problems like tooth decay or cracks, as well as old dental work. Sometimes old dental work wears out and needs to be replaced. We will be happy to replace metal fillings, inlays, onlays, and crowns with tooth-colored alternatives.

By looking for trouble every six months, we can often reduce your potential for large dental problems. For instance, left untreated, a small cavity can grow to destroy an entire tooth and spread to surrounding teeth. A cracked tooth can cause pain or break off and create additional problems. Furthermore, advanced gum disease is the primary cause of tooth loss for American adults, and oral cancer causes more than 7500 deaths each year. Caught and treated early, these diseases can be controlled.

If you have not scheduled a checkup lately, be sure to call our Carrollton dental office now to make your appointment! Children as young as two should visit the dentist, and by age four or five, a child should attend regular checkups.

Smile Makeovers

Ready for a whole new smile? Before we begin treatment, we can show you how it will look with a 3D wax model of your mouth. We’ll even make a special model that you can put in your mouth to see just how great you’ll look when your treatment is complete.

Comprehensive Examinations

Our comprehensive examinations begin with a complete medical history, vital signs, and oral cancer screening. We then conduct a thorough exam of your teeth and gums and other soft tissue to ensure the most accurate assessment. Using an intraoral camera, we will show you any areas of concern so you will understand your treatment plan.

Referrals

Occasionally, we feel that a patient with a more complicated or severe problem—an impacted wisdom tooth or advanced periodontal disease, for example—would benefit from the services of a specialist in that area. In these cases, we can refer patients to specialists whom we know and trust to provide the same high quality of care that we provide.

For Your Comfort

We want you to feel that our office is an oasis of calm in your life. You can listen to music on our noise-canceling headphones and lay back in the dental chair with pillows and blankets we provide. To help you with your anxiety level during your treatment, we also offer nitrous oxide sedation (laughing gas) and oral and IV sleep sedation. Tell us the comfort level you desire.
