Save Those Teeth!
Don't get a tooth pulled just because you think it's easier or more cost-effective than other endodontic treatments. Missing teeth can actually cause your teeth to shift, affect your ability to chew properly, and misalign your smile. It can cause more problems – and more cost – in the long run! When possible, you should always consider treatments to save your natural teeth. Understand your options and how they'll impact your quality of life and future dental health. Give us a call today!

Are You What You Drink?
Hot beverages aren't usually the cause of a cracked tooth, but they can worsen damage to a tooth that's already weak or sensitive or that has experienced trauma. Cracked teeth often result from existing tooth weakness, such as large fillings, decay, or wear over time. It's important to seek care as soon as possible to prevent further harm to your smile. Need care? Reach out to us and let us help!
