When patients feel uncomfortable showing off their smile, they can be understandably curious about what cosmetic dental care might do for them. With that said, people sometimes hesitate to even bring up an interest in cosmetic work because they are unsure of what treatment can really do for them. Others avoid mentioning their interest because they fear that the necessary procedure or procedures will be too time-consuming. At our Sheridan, WY dental office, we can help you show off significant smile improvements with conservative changes to your tooth structure. Through a tooth bonding procedure, we can restore teeth that appear unattractive, or look out of place, so that they make positive contributions to your smile. The care you receive can have a significant impact on the way you look, and it can be completed in as little as one day! (more…)

Can You Count On Your Oral Care Routine To Prevent Cavities?
When you consider how much harm an untreated cavity can do to a tooth, you can recognize the importance of a good oral hygiene routine. When decay becomes a problem, your enamel can be permanently damaged, and bacteria can eventually attack the interior of your tooth. At this point, dedicated smile care will be needed in order to save your tooth. To avoid this problem, it is important to diligently brush and floss each day, limit your intake of sugar, and attend regular dental exams. In addition to providing important routine services during checkups, our Sheridan, WY dental office can talk with you about your current oral care routine. By recommending smart improvements, we can help you better protect yourself against the damage that a cavity is capable of causing! (more…)

In many cases, it is possible to revitalize a patient’s smile in just one to two appointments, making them look younger and more attractive. (more…)
