Gum Disease Therapy

Gum disease is incredibly common and, unfortunately, many people don’t even know they have it. It’s important that the problem, when present, is treated though. It can lead to more serious health problems if it goes untreated. If the infection progresses below the gum line, it can be much harder to treat. With the help of Dr. White’s gum disease therapy, the problem can be treated and stopped from progressing further. It’s vital that action is taken if you suspect you have gum disease. Come to Advanced Dental Concepts and we’ll get to the bottom of the problem.

Tooth Extractions

There are some situations in which a tooth extraction is the best treatment option available. This shouldn’t cause you to fret though. Dr. White has performed many tooth extractions and, modern techniques, along with the right anesthesia and comfort procedures, make the process of extracting teeth straightforward with discomfort kept to a minimum

Root Canal Therapy

When a tooth is internally damaged, there are usually only two solutions: tooth extraction or root canal therapy which deals with the treatment of a nerve infection. A root canal procedure can save the tooth and so that there is no need for an extraction. It helps treat the internal infection by removing the infected material and sterilizing and sealing the interior of the tooth. The root canal procedure has long had a negative reputation, and has been the butt of jokes by many a comedian, but that’s not the reality today. With the right modern techniques and equipment, it can be made quite comfortable and straightforward and an important method for saving a damaged tooth.

Tooth Colored Fillings

Tooth colored fillings are made from a very  sophisticated blend of resins and ceramics. They’re specifically made to mimic the surrounding teeth, creating a more natural overall appearance. There are many other benefits that come with choosing these fillings beyond their natural appearance though. They physically bond to your natural tooth structure, do not expand like black mercury fillings do and so do not crack your teeth. Resin composite fillings have been last for a long time, and they’re highly durable. That’s exactly what you want from your fillings.

Rapid Short Term Braces

If you want to improve the overall look of your smile, it might be a good idea to consider rapid short term braces. These will only be in place for 6 months, and after that your smile will be better aligned and you’ll achieve a better appearance. While not a substitute for traditional orthodondics, this solution is ideal for anyone who has a healthy smile but simply wants to enhance how it looks. Dr. White will mold your teeth and use state of the art technology to fit the braces you need in order to improve your smile.
