Root Canal Therapy in Dallas, TX

January 18, 2016

 

*Actual Patient*

Has your dentist or endodontist told you that you need root canal treatment? If so, you’re not alone. Millions of teeth are treated and saved each year with root canal, or endodontic, treatment. Learn how root canal treatment can relieve your tooth pain and save your smile.

Your teeth contain several layers: the outer protective enamel, a secondary layer of sensitive dentin, and an inner pulp that contains components commonly referred to as the “nerve” of the tooth. Each pulp chamber branches off, forming canals that lead toward the tooth root tip. These infamous root canals provide a means for the tooth to absorb what it needs from the blood and get rid of toxins or other unnecessary materials via the blood stream. A deep cavity, traumatic injury, or tooth fracture can make the canal susceptible to bacterial infection, which can kill the pulp, stimulate increased blood flow, and create pressure within the tooth. This can cause severe tooth pain and may initiate bone degeneration, tooth loss, and even more acute pain. If you see a dentist in the earliest stages of this condition, the tooth may be saved with a root canal. Otherwise, it should be extracted and replaced with a prosthetic.

Will root canal therapy hurt? Not with today’s advanced analgesics and technology. In fact, the entire process can be so comfortable that many patients doze off. Oftentimes, root canal therapy can be completed in a single appointment. We simply clean out the diseased canal, fill it with a biologically-inert substance, seal it from further infection, and you’re on your way. While some patients experience post-procedural soreness or slight tissue inflammation, these are controllable with over-the-counter analgesics. Follow-up care involves thorough home hygiene and regular dental visits for cleanings and check ups.

Preview Your Future with Digital Imaging

January 5, 2016

When you decide to correct or enhance your smile, it’s often difficult to determine ahead of time exactly what kind of results to expect. After all, a smile is a pretty personal thing, and changing your smile can feel like changing your identity. That’s where cosmetic digital imaging comes into play. Digital imaging is computer software that allows us to take your digital photograph and manipulate it to reflect the procedures you’re considering. The result is a photo that shows you what your smile would look like after treatment. Whether you’re considering 1017529_110613153756_D10g

The process is quite simple. Once your dentist has completed your oral exam and discussed your smile goals, a treatment plan will be created. Various digital photos of your current smile will be taken and change factors will be keyed into the computer. The computer will immediately generate one or more graphic images that accurately demonstrate how the changes will affect the appearance of your mouth, as well as your overall facial appearance. It’s a fun process, and it can instigate excitement similar to when a sonogram reveals the gender of a new baby. Plus, you can take a photo of the new you home to share with family or friends.

Informed patients make wise decisions, and digital imaging allows you the opportunity to actually glimpse your future before committing to treatment. What more could you ask for?

A Beautiful smile is a valuable asset! Let us explain how our advanced procedures in both cosmetic and general dentistry can give you the attractive smile you’ve always wanted.

5 Early Warning Signs Of Bad Breath

December 14, 2015

According to the Bad Breath Report here are the 5 Early Warning Signs of Bad Breath:

1. Bad Breath In The Mornings

An image of a man with bad breath talking to a woman.

You’ve noticed that you have bad breath in the mornings. Many people do, in face, probably most do so you don’t need to feel bad about that. A simple brushing of teeth and a gargle of some nice minty mouthwash will usually clear things up pretty quickly.

2. Bad Breath Between Meal Times

Getting bad breath a few hours after eating can mean that you didn’t brush your teeth or that you’ve been sipping on some sweetened beverage. Your mouth could have dried out and now the food or sugar left over on the back of the tongue is starting to come alive, feeding all kinds of funky bacteria. Washing it all down with water and continuing to keep the mouth moist will prevent this. Brushing the teeth after eating will be a definite plus.

3. Bad Breath After Eating Garlic

Eating garlic or any other food that has a potent odor of its own is guaranteed to give you bad breath. This is something you must plan on and would probably be wise to stay away from foods like that when you know you will need to have a nice breath, or you will be somewhere on planet Earth where there are other people. In an emergency all you need to do is brush your teeth, gargle some mouthwash and pop a gun im the mouth. This will cut the kick out of the odor and give you a chance to excuse your self without making anyone pass out.

4. I Smell it But Others Say It’s Not There

Situations like this will happen to the best of us. Worrying about bad breath when it really is not there is a psychological thing and needs to be dealt with on the psychological level. If your peeps are telling you that your breath smells fine but you continue to smell some funk, it is probably just in your head. Trust your friends and just believe.

5. Bad Breath Even After Brushing Teeth

There are people with serious conditions that really need to be concerned about and probably have a dentist or a doctor take a look at. When you have bad breath all the time and nothing you do seems to really get rid of it, there may be some more serious issues that need to be dealt with.

A lot of people will have bad breath and will start worrying about it going to the dentist and seeing specialists when all they need to do is form some good habits and start taking care of their oral hygiene a little better. Majority of people with bad breath will not need medical attention but only their own.

Halitosis (also commonly referred to as bad breath) can undermine your confidence and negatively affect your social and professional relationships. To combat odor and restore sweet-smelling breath, Dr. Mitchell offers the Oxyfresh breath treatment system.

 

Teeth Whitening in Dallas, Texas

November 23, 2015

Did you know that teeth whitening is the most commonly requested cosmetic dentistry procedure? It’s easy to see why. A brilliantly white smile conveys beauty, vitality, and enthusiasm. Plus, it can dramatically increase your confidence.

Teeth Whitening Treatmentbride

What Causes Tooth Discoloration?

Every day, your teeth get a thorough workout. While the top layers are made of durable enamel and dentin, they can become discolored by wine, tea, coffee, or tobacco. Even medication, antibiotics, excessive fluoride, and aging can cause stains and discoloration.

Although you will find a vast variety of over-the-counter home teeth whitening products on the market, the professional Zoom! Whitening system elicits far greater results. If you want whiter teeth, ask us about Zoom! Whitening today. First you’ll need a thorough examination so we can tell you if this is the right teeth whitening system for you.

The Zoom! Whitening Process

Dr. Mitchell uses Zoom! Whitening to lighten smiles up to eight shades in about an hour. Millions of people across the globe have benefited from this safe, effective bleaching system, and you can, too. We’ll apply Zoom! Whitening gel to your teeth and activate it with a special light. The gel penetrates tooth enamel and dentin to melt away stains and discolorations that have been caused by food, beverages, tobacco, medications, and even the natural aging process. You’ll leave our office with the vividly white smile you’ve always wanted. Custom-made teeth whitening trays are available for at-home touch-ups as well.

If you’d prefer to whiten your teeth more gradually, custom-made trays are also available. These trays are molded to fit your teeth so that you won’t experience slipping and spotting or have unbleached back teeth. Simply fill the trays with our professional-grade teeth whitening solution and wear them daily for one to two weeks or until your teeth reach your desired level of whiteness. At-home trays can be used in conjunction with Zoom! Whitening so that you can maintain your dazzling smile without more trips to the dentist.

Skilled Dallas Dentist Helping Patients Maintain Healthy Smiles

October 8, 2015

A strong, healthy smile is something to be treasured. Proper preventive care can keep your teeth and gums looking and feeling great for years to come. As an experienced Dallas Dentist and General Dentist, Dr. Mitchell offers a variety of therapies to maximize oral wellness.

For optimal dental wellbeing, Dr. Mitchell recommends regular, six-month checkups. He may suggest products and techniques to optimize your oral homecare routine. He’ll use state-of-the-art tools (such as Velscope and Digital X-rays) to identify problems like tooth decay and oral cancer. Early diagnosis means timely intervention and treatment, which results in improved oral health. He’ll check your gum tissue for signs of periodontal disease and assess your bite alignment. If you’re an athlete or the parent of one, Dr. Mitchell might suggest a custom mouthguard to prevent sports-related oral injury.

General & Preventive Dentistry Services49bd00bc5d2b424504bff900926e2804

The American Dental Association recommends you see your dentist at least twice each year for a checkup. At your checkup, we will inspect your soft tissues for oral cancer, periodontal disease, and other problems. The dentist will also look at each tooth in your mouth to assess problems like tooth decay or cracks, as well as old dental work. Sometimes old dental work wears out and needs to be replaced. We will be happy to replace metal fillings, inlays, onlays, and crowns with tooth-colored alternatives.

By looking for trouble every six months, we can often reduce the potential for large dental problems. For instance, a small cavity can grow to destroy an entire tooth and spread to surrounding teeth if left untreated. A cracked tooth can cause pain or break off and create additional problems. Furthermore, advanced gum disease is the primary cause of tooth loss for American adults, and oral cancer causes more than 7500 deaths each year. Caught and treated early, these diseases can be controlled.

If you have not scheduled a checkup lately, be sure to call us now to make your appointment! Children as young as two should visit the dentist, and by age four or five, they should be attending regular checkups.

Cosmetic Dentist in Dallas TX Can Give You A Beautiful New Smile With Porcelain Veneers

July 6, 2015

Have you always wondered about cosmetic dentistry, but thought maybe it wasn’t for you?

Well, veneers are your answer!  Veneers have come a long way.  They are easy, painless and virtually instant.  In a little as two visits you can have an entirely new smile, or just enhance the one you already love.

What is a veneer?

A veneer is a contact-lens-thin custom made shell that covers the front side of the tooth and is bonded on permanently. They are created one-of-a-kind in a laboratory just for you, by a technician.  Veneers are made from exact models of your mouth taken by the dentist.

It’s about time

There is no reason to live with gaps in your front teeth, stains that won’t come off or crooked, chipped, or misshapen teeth. Today a veneer placed on top of your teeth can correct natures mistakes or remove the results of an injury, leaving your teeth looking better than ever and refreshed.

Veneers might be perfect, if you:

  • whiten regularly, but would like a permanent solution
  • are self-conscious of the gaps, chips or crooked teeth in your smile
  • have stains that do not respond to whitening
  • have an upcoming event, like a graduation, wedding, or reunion
  • want the look of a straight smile without the commitment of braces

Veneers require little, if no drilling, and no large time commitment, and deliver gorgeous permanent results.

Just what you want

Many times patients think cosmetic dentistry means an unnatural,  movie-star smile.  They think cosmetic dentistry is not for them because they might not feel like “themselves”.  Today this is just not the case.  Results can range from drastic, to subtle.  With a variety of custom shade, size and shape options, you can get exactly what you want.

Veneers are one of the easiest and fastest ways to change your smile.  Whether you looking for a dramatic or subtle result, veneers can deliver both.  I would love to talk over your options with you at your next visit.  Feel free to ask to see many of the Before and After photos we have in our office of happy patients.

Imagine never having to worry about the appearance of your smile when meeting strangers or taking pictures. Imagine not having to cover your mouth when you laugh. Imagine smiling with full confidence when introducing yourself. All of these possibilities are extremely possible with the help of our professional staff. 

With today’s technology and porcelain veneers, Dr. Mitchell can give you the smile you’ve always dreamed of.

Schedule an appointment today for a complimentary consultation visit to see if porcelain veneers are the right option for you.
