Those black domino pieces are not as scary as they look. They are 3D scanning markers that map the exact location of every implant anchor in the mouth. 😳

That scan tells the lab precisely where to place each tooth so everything fits perfectly on the implants underneath. The result speaks for itself.

Implant technology has come a long way. Come talk to us about your options! πŸ‘‡

That giant pocket on the roof of the mouth is either a tooth infection pushing through the tissue or a cyst forming underneath. 😳

Either way it needs to be checked immediately. Leaving something like this untreated only gives it more time to grow and cause bigger problems.

That string being pulled out of the gums is not as scary as it looks. 😳

It is called a retraction cord, and it is one of the most commonly used tools in dentistry. A tiny braided string is gently pushed along the gum line to move tissue out of the way, absorb moisture, and create a dry, clean space for fillings and impressions to bond properly.

Without it, dental materials fail. With it, your restoration lasts the way it should
The things happening in your mouth during a dental visit are far more precise than most people realize. Come see what good dentistry actually looks like! πŸ‘‡

This tooth had a root canal. No crown was placed on top. And now it has split completely in half. 😳

Back teeth take an enormous amount of force every single time you chew. A root canal hollows the inside out and makes the whole tooth more brittle. Without something surrounding and protecting it, splitting in half is not a possibility. It is almost a certainty.

This tooth cannot be saved. It has to come out entirely.

If you have a root canal treated back tooth without a crown, please do not wait on this. Book today! πŸ‘‡

That tooth was completely hollowed out with gums growing inside it. And they rebuilt it from nothing. 😳
A laser to remove the overgrown gum tissue. Gutta percha sealing the infected nerve canals. Composite filling in layer by layer until it looks brand new again.

The skill it takes to do this is incredible. But without a crown placed over the top, over half of teeth restored like this will crack in half within a couple of years.

The rebuild is only the first step. Protecting it after is what makes it last. Come talk to us about protecting your dental work! πŸ‘‡

That pain in the back of your mouth might not be what you think it is. 😳

Wisdom teeth are famous for causing referred pain, meaning the aching you feel can actually be coming from the tooth in front of it, not the wisdom tooth itself. Without an X-ray, it is almost impossible to tell the difference.

And if that wisdom tooth does not have enough space to come in, it will push its way out anyway, shoving gums into your bite path and causing serious discomfort.

If the back of your mouth has been hurting, come let us find out exactly what is going on! πŸ‘‡πŸ“ž

That tooth went from a massive cavity to looking completely brand new. And every single step had a purpose. 😳

The etch dissolves debris so the filling bonds properly. The matrix band keeps the material from going everywhere. The composite is placed in layers and shaped precisely to match the original tooth. The final polish makes it look like nothing ever happened.

This is what modern dentistry looks like when it is done right.
If you have a cavity that has been sitting too long come let us restore it! πŸ‘‡

Your teeth are not just stuck in your jaw. Every single one is held in by a tiny ligament, and most people have no idea. 😳

That ligament is what a dentist carefully loosens before an extraction. It is also what gum disease slowly dissolves away over time. And it is what snaps when a baseball or hockey puck hits hard enough to knock a tooth out.

When a cavity gets so large there is almost nothing left of the tooth, this is what removal looks like.

Do not let a cavity get to this point. Come see us before it does! πŸ‘‡

No, pink tooth juice is not going to reverse your cavities. 😳
There is a sliver of truth buried in this trend though. Small early stage cavities actually can be remineralized. Your saliva does it naturally, and so does the calcium in your toothpaste, every single day.

But a large cavity that has already eaten through your enamel? No juice, gem, or viral trend is fixing that.

Do not let TikTok trends replace actual dental care. Come see us before a small cavity becomes a big one! πŸ‘‡

A chipped tooth with a composite filling is not as strong as it was before. Most people do not know that. 😳

Composite is carefully shaped, light-cured into a rock-hard material, and blended into the natural tooth so well you cannot see where one ends and the other begins. It looks great. But the tooth underneath is slightly weaker than it was originally.

If that area gets bumped again, the chip is more likely to come back.
Knowing your options, including veneers, which can actually make front teeth stronger than natural, changes everything.

Come talk to us about the best solution for your chipped tooth! πŸ‘‡
