VALLEY DENTAL SOLUTIONS TREATS MANY DENTAL ISSUES

Plaque And Tartar

Plaque is a film that forms over your teeth. This sticky film consists of harmful bacteria that can damage your teeth. Plaque can cause dental issues, including:

• Bad breath.
• Yellow teeth.
• Enamel damage.
• Gum disease.

Removing plaque is vital to good oral health. We utilize professional dental tools to clear plaque from your teeth and gums.

Tartar is simply the hardened form of plaque buildup. Tartar forms along and beneath the gum line. Tartar can infect your gums and can cause cavities. Only a dental cleaning can remove tartar from your teeth.

Cavities And Fillings

Cavities are little holes in teeth formed by bacteria in plaque. Regular dental exams can catch cavities before they become serious problems!

When left untreated, the tiny hole can cause a lot of issues such as:

• Toothaches.
• Difficulty eating or speaking.
• Tooth abscess.
• Infected pulp or permanent tooth loss.
• Gum disease.

Fortunately, a filling is an efficient and simple treatment for a cavity and protects your tooth. A dental filling is made of a composite material that fills in the cavity to protect the rest of your tooth from decay or infection.

Gingivitis And Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease can be detrimental to your oral and overall health. We try to treat gum disease in its earliest stages so complications won’t arise.

Routine visits can help catch the early symptoms of gum disease. You may have gingivitis if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms:

• Persistent bad breath.
• Loose permanent teeth.
• Gums that bleed when brushing or flossing.
• Red or swollen gum tissue.

A professional cleaning can treat and prevent gingivitis. Proper brushing, flossing, and use of mouthwash can also help prevent gum disease.

Toothaches

A toothache is never fun. Whether mild or severe, a painful tooth can interrupt your life. Although a cavity can cause a toothache, it’s not the only issue that can cause you pain. Other reasons for a toothache are:

• Erosion of tooth enamel.
• Cracked or broken tooth.
• Abscess infection.
• Sinus infection.
• TMJ disorders.
• Teeth grinding.
• Another injury to the tooth.

These problems have solutions! Because a toothache is often a sign of another issue, it’s a good idea to seek treatment quickly. Treatment can vary depending on the cause of the toothache.

Chipped Or Cracked Teeth

We all want our teeth to look symmetrical and stunning. That’s one of the reasons chips and cracks in our teeth can be frustrating. These injuries can also cause:

• Tooth infections.
• Sensitivity to hot and cold foods.
• Tooth pain.
• Cuts on the lips or gums.

Crowns and veneers can protect your teeth from sensitivity and infection. They can also improve the look of your teeth! Beautiful composite, zirconia, or porcelain material that smooths, shines, and protects can be added to your smile and repair those cracks and chips.

Tooth Appearance

Beautiful teeth may seem hard to come by, but they really aren’t. There are many cosmetic treatment options including a smile makeover that can recreate your entire mouth! These treatments can help with all sorts of tooth appearance issues such as:

• Tooth chips.
• Cracked teeth.
• Tooth stains.
• Uneven spacing between teeth.
• Microdontic teeth (teeth that will never grow in fully).

You can have the gorgeous smile of your dreams sooner than you think. Many cosmetic services also benefit your dental health, so you can have a beautiful and healthy smile.

Mouth Sores

When mouth sores crop up, they can be uncomfortable and painful. Most mouth sores clear up after a few weeks, but sometimes they stick around for a long time. Mouth sores can be caused by:

• Loose wires or brackets.
• Dental work that no longer fits or has come loose.
• Bacterial or viral infection.
• A lack of iron in the diet.
• Biting your lip or cheek.
• An underlying disorder or disease.
• Cancerous cells.

Mouth sores can be canker sores, cold sores, thrush, or leukoplakia. A correct diagnosis can prevent future problems as well as provide a path for treatment.

Impacted Teeth

General dentistry services can catch conditions like impacted teeth before they become a problem. Taking regular x-rays can help us find trends and notice when a tooth isn’t growing in correctly.

Impacted teeth are teeth that grow into the gums instead of erupting above them. We commonly find this happening with wisdom teeth because they often have no room to grow. Impacted teeth can cause the following issues:

• Shifting teeth.
• Jaw pain.
• Pain when chewing.
• Infection.
• Abscess.

Regular dental exams can prevent complications with tooth impaction.

Tooth Erosion

Tooth erosion happens naturally as we age, but there are other causes too. Teeth grinding or clenching can also cause your teeth to wear down. We can prevent this second kind of erosion with a nightguard that protects your teeth during sleep.

If erosion occurs, we can repair the damage with a couple of services including:

• Crowns: To cover and protect exposed dentin.
• Veneers: To replace worn-down enamel.
• Sealants: To build up tooth enamel and prevent cavities.

Tooth erosion can’t be prevented, but you can slow it down by taking care of your teeth.

Oral Cancer Screening

A cancer diagnosis can be nerve-wracking, but it doesn’t have to be. We are trained to catch cancerous tissue early before it progresses too far. We conduct a standard cancer screening in every exam appointment so we can catch the early signs and start treatment right away.

During this appointment we look for certain symptoms:

• Unusual redness.
• White tissue.
• Sores that stay for weeks or months.
• Mouth pain.

Cancer screenings take very little time and effort, but they can save your life. It never hurts to be sure!
