The Importance of Hygiene Visits
No Mercury! No Metals! No Kidding!
Saving Hopeless Teeth
In the not-too-distant past, the situation mentioned above would have required the tooth to be extracted. When endodontists started performing root canals, they were quite dreaded, and the root canal has received a reputation as something to be avoided. However, with modern anesthetics and technology, root canals are often manageable.
Oral Cancer – Minimize Your Risk
It’s an often-unknown statistic that oral cancer causes one American death every hour. For 40 years, this mortality rate hasn’t changed. But it’s not all bad news. Early detection means a 90% cure rate for oral cancer. That’s why we conduct a visual screening for oral cancer at every six-month checkup and cleaning. If the hygienist or doctor sees anything that gives them cause for concern, they’ll refer you to an oral surgeon. This screening could literally save your life!
