Therapeutic Dental Procedures
For some dental diagnoses, there is no cure. You’re options are restricted to disease management or removal of the tooth. Periodontal disease is one such example. If left untreated, periodontal disease can cause loss of otherwise healthy teeth. It’s symptoms vary widely and their is a genetic risk for all of us.
The same scenario holds true regarding the detection of dental caries, if left untreated, dental caries can impact and adversely effect the blood supply or nerve of the tooth and cause pain and swelling, resulting in a bad toothache.
Maintaining regular dental visits and good home dental care habits will greatly reduce the likelihood of either of these scenarios from occurring. Dentistry for the Entire Family’s dental hygienists routinely check for signs and symptoms of periodontal disease and expose digital x-rays as ordered by the dentist to check for dental caries.
Below is a list of the most common therapeutic dental procedures we perform.
- Periodontal Disease Therapy and Management
- Endodontic Therapy (aka Root Canal Therapy)
