Comprehensive General Dentistry
At Flax Dental, we understand that a healthy smile starts with excellent general dental care. We design our general dentistry services to keep your teeth and gums in the best shape. With the right routine and treatments, we can prevent a wide range of dental issues. Being proactive about your dental health can help you live longer and live better with a healthy mouth.
Routine Check-ups and Cleanings
Regular dental check-ups are essential for maintaining good oral health. During your visit, our skilled dental hygienists will thoroughly clean your teeth. They will remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent cavities and gum disease. Dr. Flax will also perform a comprehensive examination to detect any potential issues early and provide appropriate treatment.
Cavity Fillings
If you have a cavity, we offer tooth-colored fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. These composite fillings can restore the strength and function of your tooth. Furthermore, they provide a more aesthetically pleasing result than traditional metal fillings.
Root Canal Therapy
When infection or inflammation affects the inner tissue of a tooth, root canal therapy may be necessary. A root canal procedure will save the tooth from extraction. Our gentle and precise approach to root canal treatment ensures a comfortable experience and a successful outcome.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Early detection is key to effectively treating oral cancer. During your regular check-ups, Dr. Flax performs thorough oral cancer screenings. He can easily detect any signs of abnormalities or cancerous growths. This allows for prompt intervention if needed.
Sedation Dentistry
We understand that visiting the dentist can be daunting for some patients. Therefore, we offer sedation dentistry options to ensure your comfort and relaxation during dental procedures. Nitrous oxide, or “laughing gas”, is a safe and effective sedative that you inhale through a mask during treatment. Additionally, we provide oral conscious sedation for those with higher levels of anxiety or longer procedures.
Restorative Dentistry for Optimal Oral Health
With restorative dental care, our team uses the latest techniques and materials to repair and restore your teeth. From dental crowns and bridges to dental implants, we offer lifelike solutions to restore function and beauty to your teeth.
Dental Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover a damaged or weak tooth to restore its strength, function, and appearance. Bridges, on the other hand, replace missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to neighboring natural teeth or dental implants. Dr. Flax offers both these options for patients with missing teeth or damaged teeth.
Dental Implants
Missing teeth can impact your oral health and self-confidence. Dental implants are a permanent and natural-looking solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. An oral surgeon places these titanium posts into the jawbone. The posts will provide a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or implant denture.
Dentures and Partial Dentures
If you are missing several or all of your teeth, dentures offer a removable prosthetic option. Dentures restore your teeth and ability to chew and speak comfortably. We also provide partial dentures for patients missing some teeth but not all. For more information on the types of dentures we offer, see Dentures and partials.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
We offer full mouth reconstruction to patients with extensive dental issues. Dr. Flax can completely restores the function, health, and aesthetics of your mouth. He will create a personalized treatment plan combining various restorative procedures to achieve optimal results. For more information on mouth reconstruction, please visit Full-mouth reconstruction.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease is a common condition that can lead to serious oral health problems if left untreated. Our skilled team offers non-surgical gum disease treatment to restore the health of your gums and prevent further issues. We don’t just create beautiful smiles at Flax Dental, we create masterpieces. We provide gum disease treatment for patients who need it.
