Calling a root canal a blessing is crazy talk, right?

We get it. Root canals have not had a very good reputation in the world of dentistry.

But modern root canal treatment at your Charlotte, NC dental practice will change the way you see this procedure.

Watch our video to hear why this dental treatment is, in fact, a blessing for patients who are suffering from the intense pain of an infected or damaged tooth and how we will make sure you feel comfortable throughout your procedure.

Don’t spend the holidays in pain! Call Charlotte Dentistry at 704-285-0846 to schedule your root canal appointment in Charlotte, NC.

If you keep up with your routine dental hygiene appointments every six months, then you’re probably already aware of how much dentistry has changed in recent years.

What you might not realize is just how far orthodontics have come. Metal braces still deliver great results to fix complicated teeth and bite alignment problems.

But for minor malocclusions or slightly crooked teeth, you may achieve the results you want without brackets and wires!

Here are some illustrations from Invisalign that will give you an idea of the types of cases most treatable with this amazing clear aligners system.

Thanks to advances in technology, dentistry is not what it used to be, especially when it comes to modern restorative solutions.

No longer do patients have to sacrifice the appearance of their smiles for better oral health. This used to be the case if you ever had a cavity near the front of your mouth that was treated with a silver filling that left a dark spot in your smile.

Watch today’s video to learn about a more natural-looking solution that seamlessly matches your surrounding teeth. Composite tooth fillings are strong and durable enough to protect teeth weakened by decay but discreet enough to blend right in with your smile!

Need a quick fix for a cavity that will keep your smile bright for the upcoming holidays? Call Charlotte Dentistry at 704-285-0846 to schedule your appointment for restorative dental care in Charlotte, NC.

Before we let the season of fright come to an end, we wanted to spend our last October blog devoted to one of the most common barriers to good oral health.

It’s good old-fashioned fear of the dentist!

Millions of people can’t maintain healthy smiles because they’re too afraid of going to the dentist for routine care. Our goal is to make sure our patients don’t suffer that fate by giving you everything you need to make visiting us at Charlotte Dentistry easy, and yes, even enjoyable!

Benefits Of Dental Sedation

Along with our compassionate, patient-focused care and cozy amenities, you’ll find one of the most effective strategies for overcoming dental fear is in relaxation-inducing sedation options in Charlotte, NC!

*Relax Before & During Your Appointments*

Obviously, inhaled and oral sedation are both meant to help you physically relax during dental treatment. That benefit on its own is incredibly helpful in overcoming dental fear.

But what you might not consider is how the peace of mind of knowing sedation is an option for you will help you emotionally deal with the days and hours leading up to your appointments.

When you know you can rely on inhaled sedation or a sedative in pill form beforehand, it can ease your mind leading up to your visits just as well as it can ease the physical manifestations of stress like sweaty palms, heart palpitations, and butterflies during your visits.

*Schedule Multiple Dental Treatments In One Visit*

One of the great benefits of dental sedation is that it makes efficient care more possible.

You may have multiple problems with your teeth and gums that require various treatments. With sedation, you’ll be able to relax for longer periods of time so we can work on your smile in one visit. It’s especially helpful if you have a sensitive gag reflex that makes it hard to sit too long in the chair with people working inside your mouth.

Being able to relax longer allows us to schedule multiple procedures in a single appointment so you don’t have to keep returning unnecessarily.

*Have A Brighter, Healthier Smile You’ll Love*

Since staying away from the dentist’s office for long periods of time will have an inevitable impact on your oral health, most fearful patients end up having a smile they’re ashamed of. Unhealthy teeth and gums are an embarrassing problem to have for most people, one that understandably holds them back from an active, fulfilling personal, social, and professional life.

But when you’re able to restore your smile because you’ve put control over your oral health back in your own hands, you will see and feel a difference in your appearance, self-esteem, and how you carry yourself in every setting.

Most people can admit to feeling slightly nervous at the start of a dental appointment, but in many cases, those nerves settle down within the first few minutes.

It’s not that way for everyone, though. To some people, the stress and anxiety only intensify, and in fact, their fear of the dentist can be so overwhelming that they’ll do everything they can to avoid going unless it’s absolutely necessary.

Sadly, this is one of the most common barriers to good oral health.

We’re here to help you get beyond your dental anxiety so you can enjoy a better state of health and quality of life, starting with this video clip from the American Dental Association about some of the ways you and your dentist can work together to overcome your fears about dental care!
