Dallas Laser Dentistry Can Help!
Whether you need a Dallas dentist to get you out of pain, treat your bad breath, maintain a healthy smile, or cosmetically redo your smile, we can help. Dallas dentists vary significantly in their experience, the materials they use, the services they provide, and how they treat their patients. We know you have a choice when selecting a Dallas dentist. As a result, we do everything we can to make this a most pleasant experience.
To better serve you, we've created a pleasant pampering environment dramatically different from most dental offices you've visited, utilizing the latest technology and a warm friendly atmosphere that will reduce your stress and will forever change your expectations for care from Dallas dentists. Each operatory has a view from eight stories high of North Dallas. Massage pads in each chair, eclectic music, and educational videos make the time pass comfortably. Our dentists, hygienists, and assistants have been carefully chosen not only for their professional skills, but also for their ability to put patients first and at ease. Once you're here, we'll listen carefully to understand your needs, desires, and concerns. Following diagnosis, we'll educate you about your options, develop a specific treatment plan, and then make you proud to smile! Our focus is on providing you with the highest quality care, which is reflected in our exclusive use of Da Vinci Veneers™, Invisalign® aligners, white fillings, and state of the art lasers - not only for tooth whitening, but also to treat periodontal disease, find cavities, and create beautiful smiles.
Hot moist towels and a "thank you" gift round out each treatment session. Plus, our front office staff help you get the most out of your dental plan, or can arrange third party financing should you so choose.

Optimizing and maintaining your oral health, the foundation for your smile, is very important. if( you're not in pain, your initial visit will consist of:
- Digital X-rays, which expose you to 80% less radiation than standard X-rays
- Diagnodent™ laser cavity finder exam
- Oral Cancer exam
- Comprehensive Evaluation and Periodontal diagnosis
- Tooth Cleaning and Polishing, or debridement if necessary to diagnose if periodontal disease is present
Six month follow-up visits are scheduled to maintain your oral health if no periodontal disease is apparent.

| We Can Help You Get Out of Pain Now! |

if( you've reached that point with a tooth that you're in severe pain, give us a call - we can get you out of pain! We'll likely have to perform a root canal, but don't let that stop you from calling - root canals today don't cause you more pain (like they once did decades ago), they actually immediately relieve your pain. So don't wait - we can only make it better!
Ever wonder what causes tooth pain? Usually it is tooth decay becoming severe enough to reach the nerve inside the tooth. As the nerve becomes infected pain and sensitivity to heat/cold and pressure can occur sporadically. Over time pain occurs more frequently and intensifies. That's usually when we get the "emergency call"! We use digital X-rays and a diagnostic laser cavity finder called a Diagnodent™ to find decay before it reaches the nerve, and will repair it with a white filling. Extensive decay can weaken tooth structure so much it requires we repair it with a crown. Plus, if the nerve is reached a root canal is first done, before a crown is placed. Sometimes a tooth is so damaged it must be pulled. When that happens it's important to immediately replace it with a bridge or implant, or your remaining teeth can shift out of alignment, causing pain and other problems.

Do your gums bleed when you brush? Do you have bad breath? if( so, you likely have periodontal disease -- gingivitis or worse, periodontitis. Untreated periodontal disease causes tooth loss, and the bacteria associated with periodontitis has been linked to heart disease, blood clots, stroke, and buildup of plaque in the circulatory system. Our hygienists will chart the current condition of your gums, and the doctor will complete a complete Periodontal Evaluation and plan a course of treatment. Periodontal disease treatment will include ultrasonic scaling and root planing to remove gross infection. At the same visit laser therapy may be performed to remove dead tissues, sterilize the pockets of infection, and speed healing. Periodic visits for periodontal maintenance are scheduled, at which time antibiotics such as Arestin may used to control and eliminate any recurrent localized infection.
The doctor will also perform an oral cancer exam annually. Oral cancer occurs as frequently as cervical cancer, yet while women usually get their annual PAP smears done they often neglect an annual oral cancer exam. Ironically, the mortality rate for cervical cancer is only 3-4%, while oral cancer mortality is 30%, so the risks are much more severe if you wait too long. Tobacco product users have a very high probability of incurring oral cancer versus non-users. Male or female, we strongly encourage you to be examined annually - somewhere, if not with us!
