Toothache That Won’t Go Away? Tell Your Dentist
If you have a toothache that refuses to depart, or frequent issues with dental pain or sensitivity while eating, ignoring the matter can be a big mistake.

How A Dental Implant Holds Your Restoration In Place
The support a dental implant provides your dental prosthetic can have a positive effect on your quality of life, your confidence, and your dental function. Implants serve an important role when it comes to restoring your complete smile. Because dental prostheses are only replacing the crown of your tooth (the portion above your gum line), you miss out on some of the important advantages that roots provide. Your implant takes over the responsibilities of teeth roots. In addition to securing the restoration to your jaw, the implant can keep neighboring roots stable, provide better support for biting and chewing, and preserve the health of your jawbone. Your El Paso, TX dentist’s office can talk to you about using dental implant support to bring back your full smile. (more…)
An Impacted Wisdom Tooth Can Become A Big Problem
When it comes to most oral health care scenarios, a tooth extraction is seen as a last resort. However, when it comes to wisdom teeth, their removal is often recommended. This is because these teeth, which arrive later in life, may create several problems due to their presence alone. Because people often lack the space to comfortably receive these teeth, crowding of your teeth can occur, which can lead to pain, and problems with your dental alignment. You can also experience difficult issues if a wisdom tooth becomes impacted, meaning it is not able to fully erupt. An impacted wisdom tooth can lead to more pain, and more significant damage. Fortunately, your El Paso, TX dentist’s office is ready to help by performing your wisdom tooth extraction! (more…)

If you have an older filling that feels loose, or that you suspect is no longer offering enough support for your tooth, our El Paso, TX dental practice is ready to help! We can replace a worn or damaged filling with a new restoration, so your tooth is once again provided with the support you need. (more…)
