A dental emergency could mean a loose filling, chipped tooth, or even a sudden ache in your teeth. Addressing these issues quickly helps protect your smile from serious discomfort, as well as tooth decay and dental infection. In today’s blog, we’re talking about how our Omaha, NE, patients should respond to their dental emergencies, and when they should give our team a call.
How Does A Bridge Replace Missing Teeth?
When our Omaha, NE, patients come to us with one or more missing teeth, we may suggest a dental prosthetic to address the gaps in their smile. Replacing your lost teeth will help improve the smile’s appearance, while also safeguarding oral health against complications. How does a bridge replace a missing tooth, and how do we ensure they look natural?
Are You A Dental Implant Candidate?
When we lose our permanent teeth, this leads to serious negative impacts of our smile’s health and appearance. In order to prevent complications, such as an aged appearance, further tooth loss, or misalignment, you need to have your missing teeth addressed right away. We’re looking at addressing lost teeth with implant dentistry, and when our Omaha, NE, patient should see us.
Clear Smile Correction With Invisalign
Just because you have misalignment doesn’t mean you must rely on metal braces to correct the issue. In fact, we often help those in Omaha, NE, with uneven smiles using a series of clear aligners. Made from a safe and comfortable plastic material, Invisalign® aligners help address misalignment while remaining practically invisible.
How Does Extracting A Tooth Save Your Smile?
As dental professionals, we strive to help our Omaha, NE, patients enjoy healthy smiles, which means preserving their natural teeth. However, sometimes ensuring a healthy smile involves actually removing a natural tooth. When do we recommend an extraction and how does this process improve oral health? What should a person expect from the procedure itself?
Treating Your Infection (And Saving Your Tooth)
When a tooth develops an infection, the clock is ticking. Without treatment, a tooth could potentially become lost and allow infection to spread to surrounding teeth, or into the jawbone! Fortunately, we help treat infected teeth with root canal therapy. What should our Omaha, NE, patients expect from this restorative treatment option? How do you recognize a dental infection?
Stopping Tooth Decay With Natural Looking Fillings
If you have a cavity, then you need to see the dentist. Lack of treatment could mean trouble, including dental infections and serious discomfort! In order to repair a cavity, we may suggest a filling. We offer our patients in Omaha, NE, lifelike fillings made from metal-free composite resin. How do these restorations repair decayed teeth and improve oral health?
CEREC Creates Crowns In One Visit
Just a few years ago, hearing the dentist say you needed a crown mean looking forward to two or more visits, as well as a brief period of wearing a temporary restoration. However, we offer our Omaha, NE, patients the chance to receive a dental crown in the same visit. How do we create and place them in one visit? What happens during the CEREC process?
Correcting Uneven Smiles Without Metal Braces
Uneven smiles, such as crooked and crowded teeth, could lead to a number of oral health complications. Many assume the only option to address uneven smiles is through metal orthodontics. However, we’re here to dispel this myth. We offer our Omaha, NE, patients a clear and comfortable alternative: Invisalign® and ClearCorrect™ clear aligners.
How Choosing Veneers Could Transform Your Smile
You have a lot of choices for improving your smile, from teeth whitening to cosmetic dental bonding. But what if you have several different esthetic issues? Fortunately, we have a single cosmetic restoration that address multiple problems with a tooth’s shape and color. How does choosing veneers transform smiles in Omaha, NE? What does placing them involve?
