Is My Dental Filling Going To Stand Out When I Smile?
If you have any troubles with your oral health, you should discuss them with your dentist as soon as possible. The time you wait to schedule care can ultimately affect the way you are treated. A cavity that forms will start small, but eventually the damage can become serious enough to make tooth loss a possibility. However, if you act to have a cavity treated as soon as possible, you may find that you only need a dental filling to fully resolve your trouble with decay. At our Sheridan, WY dentist’s office, we are ready to take care of teeth affected by cavities with tooth-colored dental fillings. In addition to restoring your tooth’s health and giving it important support, this can preserve the way it looks! (more…)
Making The Decision To Improve Your Smile With Veneers
Have you grown fed up with smile flaws that make you less than thrilled by the way you look in pictures? Do you struggle with uneasy feelings because you worry people are judging you by the condition of your teeth? Thanks to cosmetic dentistry, people bothered by noticeable smile flaws can see real improvements to the way they look with more conservative treatment options. Rather than modify and cap teeth with dental crowns to change the way they look, we can instead use porcelain veneers to hide flaws. Veneers demand less preparatory work and can leave more of your healthy tooth structure alone. This is one of many cosmetic services that our Sheridan, WY dentist’s office can provide to patients who want to feel more confident in the way that they look! (more…)

At our Sheridan, WY dentist’s office, we can discuss TMJ treatment during a routine dental visit, or you can reach out to see how treatment can help alleviate the ongoing issues you have with jaw pain and stiffness.

3 Strategies That Can Make Avoiding Cavities Easier
The care you put into preventing cavities is important. After all, dental decay will do permanent damage to your tooth structure even when the problem is identified and treated with a dental filling shortly after developing.

At our Sheridan, WY dentist’s office, we provide preventive dental health care as well as services to treat active problems with your teeth. While we perform preventive services in the office that keep you safe from trouble, we also provide guidance that you can use to take better care of your smile between visits! (more…)
Positive Changes Provided By Treatment With Invisalign
If you knew you could fix problems with the spacing of your teeth without wearing metal braces, how interested in treatment would you be?

At our Sheridan, WY dentist’s office, we can meet with you to discuss the benefits of treatment with Invisalign aligners. These clear appliances make orthodontic work discreet, which can make you less self-conscious for the duration of your adjustment. In some cases, we can even discuss the use of porcelain veneers to hide problems, which means you can see exciting improvements in a shorter period of time! (more…)
