Our last blog focused on the importance of having your smile examined every six months. During these same visits, our dental hygienists will also clean your teeth. Removing plaque and tartar from your smile is a great way to keep teeth bright and free of serious oral health issues. In today’s blog, your El Paso, TX, dentists talk about the importance of routine cleanings for patients of all ages!
A visit every six months for a checkup is great for kids and adults alike, and a key component of a successful oral health routine. In today’s blog, your El Paso, TX, dentists will explain what we look for in a checkup, and the difference between the exams we offer for kids and our adult patients. We also want to talk about warning signs that require a visit!
When you sustain an injury to your mouth, face, or jaw, this could have a negative impact on your teeth. Even if damage isn’t obvious, a serious fracture could still be present! In today’s blog, your El Paso, TX, dentists will talk about how we treat injured teeth and help return smiles to optimal health, function, and beauty with emergency dentistry.
With emergency dentistry, both of our El Paso, TX, locations can offer treatment for patients 24/7, since these kinds of issues rarely seem to happen during normal business hours! But what qualifies as a dental emergency? While broken and chipped teeth may seem obvious, having a compromised restoration could also be a sign your tooth needs immediate attention!
When we enter our late teens and early 20s, this means our smile undergoes some serious changes, as up to four wisdom teeth could erupt. For some people, this eruption could soon mean painful impaction. In order to avoid impacted wisdom teeth, your El Paso, TX, dentists may recommend a safe and comfortable tooth extraction.
If you lose a tooth to a dental emergency, or as a result of advanced gum disease, then your oral health could suffer, not to mention your smile’s appearance. One option for addressing tooth loss is to place one or more dental implants. Unlike other prosthetics, these can last decades, possibly even a lifetime! Your El Paso, TX, dentists explain what makes them last so long.
Our last blog looked at how a partial denture helps ensure a full and functional smile. But what if you have lost the vast majority of your natural teeth, or all of them? To restore your ability to you eat your favorite foods again or smile with confidence, your El Paso, TX, dentists suggest creating and placing a full set of dentures.
If you have lost one to three teeth in a row, you benefit from a bridge. For those missing all of their natural teeth, a full denture is the best solution. But what if your tooth loss falls in between these two ends of the spectrum? In today’s blog, your El Paso, TX, dentist looks at how we address more substantial cases of missing teeth with a custom-made partial denture.
Our doors are open and we’re finally able to offer treatment for non-essential visits, such as checkups and cleanings and cosmetic care, including teeth whitening and porcelain veneers. We still have emergency dental care as well, should you develop a damaged or aching tooth. In order to ensure your health and safety, your El Paso, TX, dentists have implemented new guidelines and measures!
A dental bridge is a perfect option to address between one and three missing teeth in a row. Typically, they’re held in place with lifelike crowns, but your El Paso, TX, dentists can offer one that is far more secure using dental implants. In today’s blog, we’re looking at the benefits of securing a dental bridge with dental implants!
