When you visit your dentist regularly, you are informed of the health of your smile as well as the progression of any major concerns, such as disease, decay and more. As a last effort, some diseased teeth may be extracted in order to preserve the integrity of your smile, however, it is important to know that your journey does not stop there. In fact, once a tooth is gone, the gap left behind can cause a myriad of problems later down the line that can once again bring your oral health into question. Fortunately, your Omaha, NE dentist at Pacific Hills Dental can help you achieve a healthy smile once more through the use of dental implants.

How Our Fillings Give You a Healthy, Natural-Looking Appearance
Whether you have developed a cavity from excessive sweets, poor dental care, or even simply from not attending routine check-ups, it is crucial that they are managed and attended to before they progress. Cavities are holes that develop in or on a tooth when it has been exposed to harmful oral bacteria that eats away at your tooth. If left unchecked, the cavity can get bigger as more harmful bacteria develop and wear down your tooth, and can ultimately lead to bigger problems such as plaque formation, tooth decay, and even total tooth loss. Our team at Pacific Hills Dental in Omaha, Nebraska can help.
