We’ve been talking a lot about treating dental emergencies lately, but we often focus on care for adults with damaged or knocked-out teeth. What about kids? Your El Paso, TX, dentists provide care for smiles of all ages, including children. In today’s blog, we’re going to look at when to seek emergency care for your little one’s smile.
When you’re faced with a dental emergency, this means you have sustained damaged or may be experiencing severe discomfort. After you contact us and before arriving at our El Paso, TX, office, you can take steps to ease discomfort and help prevent further complications! Find out what you need to do when faced with a dental emergency.
Do you have an ache in your smile, or pain when you chew? Sometimes, discomfort could be related to poor oral health or even the consequence of a damaged tooth. But when should you contact your El Paso, TX, dentists for emergency treatment? How do we halt discomfort and restore the health and beauty of your smile?
If you have a damaged portion of your smile, or if a tooth has developed serious oral health issues, then you have a dental emergency that could require a restoration to avoid worsening discomfort or even the loss of your tooth. Fortunately, your El Paso, TX, dentists can create modern and durable crowns from lifelike materials, such as ceramic. How does a crown fix a tooth?
When a tooth is fractured, this not only impacts esthetics, but could also leave your tooth vulnerable to issues like tooth decay or even an infection or abscess. When this happens, you may need a root canal procedure. When do your El Paso, TX, dentists recommend endodontic care to address damaged or aching teeth?
When you have a cavity, you need treatment to prevent the onset of dental infections. In today’s blog, your El Paso, TX, dentists are talking about treatment with lifelike and biocompatible dental fillings. Find out what makes these such a preferable alternative to traditional metal fillings in our latest blog.
If you have a cavity, or if a tooth has sustained serious damage, then you will need a restoration to repair the damage and return the smile to optimal health and function. Fortunately, your El Paso, TX, dentists know how to provide fillings and crowns that not only offer long-lasting and durable dental restorations, but natural-looking improvement as well.
Often, a cosmetic procedure targets a specific area of the smile. For example, teeth whitening brightens teeth, and gum contouring improves the symmetry of the gum line. But with porcelain veneers, your El Paso, TX, dentist uses a single cosmetic restoration to completely change the shape and color of your smile, improving a wide array of esthetic issues.
In our last few blogs, we’ve focused on our cosmetic treatment options. Many of the these involve removing teeth stains or correcting issues with the shape of your teeth. But what about your gums? For those with esthetic issues with the appearance of the gums, your El Paso, TX, dentists provide gum contouring using advanced technology.
For people with teeth stains, we may suggest professional teeth whitening. But what if you have a chipped tooth, or issues with the shape of your teeth? To help correct an array of esthetic concerns, your El Paso, TX, dentists may recommend using dental bonding and contouring, which can help transform smiles in as little as one visit.
