Twice-daily brushings and regular flossing are excellent for
maintenance between office visits, but a healthy mouth and
beautiful smile require routine preventative care to stay
that way. Our practice offers preventative care that includes
regular oral examinations and cleanings, fluoride, and periodontal
(gum disease) treatments designed to help you maintain your
smile's health and beauty. Keep your teeth and gums strong
and disease-free.
Family Dentistry
Kids want to be comfortable, entertained, and respected. Adults
want the best technology, the most informed doctors, and the
highest quality care. Here, at the Galleria Dental Group,
we understand that kids and adults have different needs and
priorities, and we address them all. We have children of our
own and that is why we have extensive experience working with
them - we can make their dental experience more enjoyable
for them.
Each of our teeth contains a long, thin strand of dental pulp—which
provides the tooth with nutrients and nerves—that extends
down to the tooth's root. If the pulp becomes infected or
injured, the tooth's nerves die and often, without endodontic
treatment, the tooth dies as well. Root canals are designed
to save such damaged teeth. Since root canals always leave
the tooth in a weakened condition, a crown is necessary to
prevent the tooth from breaking. We have extensive experience
in endodontic treatments and we can certainly place you at
ease when it comes to treating your root canals.
Periodontics
Unfortunately,
periodontal (gum) disease can lead to more
than just an unsightly smile—it can cause loss of teeth
and eventually, if left untreated, serious health problems.
Called gingivitis in its early stages, periodontal disease
is caused by excessive toxic bacteria (found in plaque) that
attack your mouth's soft tissues. Early warning signs of the
disease include red, swollen, bleeding gums. If caught early,
we can help you reverse the damage or, if detected late, we
can use one of many effective cosmetic dentistry procedures
to restore your mouth to a healthy, beautiful state.
We offer non-surgical treatment options for the treatment
of periodontal disease.
Extractions
In only the most extreme and necessary cases, we may extract
a tooth in preparation for another dental procedure, such
as dentures.
Holistic Dentistry
Our practice is fully capable to provide holistic dental treatment.
The term is often used interchangeably with natural dentistry
or biological dentistry, referring to a style of practicing
dentistry which takes into account the whole person and recognizes
that dental conditions and procedures impact a person's general
health and well-being. The health of the mouth and the health
of the body simply cannot be separated. In addition to using
this as a guiding principle in treating our patients, we continue
our education in order to stay up to date on the latest treatments,
and aware of cutting-edge research and advances in Holistic
Dentistry. We believe in combining state-of-the-art technology
with the most natural possible approach to dentistry. Depending
upon your own specific needs and desires related to Holistic
Dentistry, we can address many significant treatment aspects
such as patient comfort and safety, natural-looking dental
work that combines aesthetics with longevity, the use of mercury
free-fillings, material compatibility testing, innovative
isolation techniques to eliminate mercury exposure, the use
of oxygen during mercury removal, the role of nutrition in
oral health, the relationship of gum disease to other physical
problems, structural components, such as TMJ, uneven bite,
support and encouragement of natural healing, neurological
and neuromuscular issues.
