Thanksgiving is fun holiday filled with laughs, visits with old friends and family, and of course, our favorite holiday fare. However, this year the celebrations may be much smaller, but you’re still going to enjoy your sugary and starchy favorites. In today’s blog, your Greenville, TX, dentist has tips to protect your smile from cavities!
Seek Emergency Care For That Broken Tooth
If you have a chipped or cracked tooth, then this could mean eventual pain and even the onset of cavities or infection. Fortunately, your Greenville, TX, dentist offers emergency dentistry, so we can schedule a time to see you and repair your tooth quickly. In today’s blog, we’re looking at how you should respond to dental emergencies, and when you should give us a call!
Protecting Smiles With Tooth Extraction
Fillings and crowns help us treat serious issues with a tooth, from damage to decay and infection. However, sometimes issues arise that are simply too severe to be addressed with a filling or crown. Instead, to preserve the smile we need to remove a tooth completely. In today’s blog, your Greenville, TX, dentist explains when we recommend removing a tooth.
Keep Your Smile Free Of Halloween Cavities
In just a few days people in our community will be celebrating Halloween! Even if you’re forgoing trick or treating excursions, you’ll likely still end up with an excess amount of candy. Too many sweets could lead to tooth decay, so your Greenville, TX, dentist offers a few tips to help protect smiles both young and old from cavities.
Dental Implants Preserve Smiles
Did you know that dental implants do more than simply fill the gap in your smile left by a missing tooth? In fact, they can help preserve your facial structure and even prevent further tooth loss. In today’s blog, your Greenville, TX, dentist will look at how we use dental implants to help replace missing teeth and ensure you enjoy a full and beautiful smile for years to come.
Treating Total Tooth Loss With Dentures
When you lose the majority of your natural teeth, or experience the loss of every single one, this could impact your oral health. To avoid issues with everything from eating and speaking, to the stability of your facial structure, you need a prosthetic. In today’s blog, your Greenville, TX, dentist talks about creating full dentures!
Restoring Smile Function With A Partial Denture
When you lose several teeth, especially if they’re spread out across your smile, you may have a situation that is too severe for a bridge. However, you may not need a full denture either. Fortunately, your Greenville, TX, dentist knows how to address these in-between cases of tooth loss with a custom-made partial denture.
How Does A Bridge Treat Tooth Loss?
When you lose a tooth, or up to three in a row, then your Greenville, TX, dentist may suggest a bridge. We use this custom prosthetic to replace missing teeth with a functional and lifelike option. But how does a bridge treat tooth loss, and how do we design and craft them? How long do they last?
Creating Crowns In One Visit
In the past, the process of restoring a tooth with a custom crown took between two and three visits. However, our team understands that our patients already have hectic schedules, and can’t afford multiple to visits to address their dental concerns. Which is why your Greenville, TX, dentist uses the CEREC system to create and place a dental crown in only one visit!
Comfortable Dental Repair With Root Canal Therapy
When you think root canal, you probably envision all of the jokes and inaccurate rumors that paint it as an uncomfortable experience. However, most people find the process comparable to a filling placement, a comfortable and safe means of restoring smiles. In today’s blog, your Greenville, TX, dentist explains how we provide root canals to stop infections!
