Sometimes, a person who used to show off a great deal of confidence while smiling can lose their ability to do so. This can be due to problems with discoloration, a tooth injury, or general wear and tear that causes issues for their enamel. Of course, there are others with naturally occurring smile flaws that leave them doubting the quality of their appearance. At our Redmond, OR dentist’s office, we can talk to you about gaining – or regaining – confidence with porcelain veneers! With your custom veneers, you can show off teeth that are bright, uniform, and free of visible blemishes that might embarrass you. (more…)

Addressing Ongoing Bite Troubles
Pain should not be a recurring problem when you bite, chew, or speak. While this statement can sound obvious, many people will try to ignore discomfort in the hopes that it will go away on its own.

At our Redmond, OR dentist’s office, patients who struggle with discomfort can receive helpful information on why they are having troubles, and they can learn how the right procedure can help them. We also provide ongoing routine dental exams and cleanings, which create opportunities for us to find and address active oral health issues. (more…)

Where Root Canal Therapy Fits Into Cavity Treatment
Is it time to schedule a root canal procedure? After you learn that you have a cavity, you may assume that this will be part of your treatment. However, it is not always needed – if decay is identified in time, we can restore your tooth with a custom dental filling and avoid any need for internal tooth treatment. With that said, once a cavity progresses in severity to the point where root canal therapy is called for, it will have to take place if you hope to stop a cavity from doing further harm. At our Redmond, OR dentist’s office, patients who experience severe tooth decay can contact us to determine what kind of restorative dental work is necessary. Remember that with regular dental exams scheduled, a person is less likely to need a root canal, as a cavity can be caught in its early stages. (more…)

Scheduling Regular Dental Checkups After A Break In Care
Regular dental exams should occur at six month intervals, unless your dentist has already told you to do something different.

Our Redmond, OR dentist’s office is prepared to help you stay consistent with preventive care and lower your risk for issues with dental decay and gum disease. By returning to the dentist’s chair, you can receive helpful warnings about problems, and receive treatment to limit your risk for future problems.
