Urgent Dental Care

Urgent dental care refers to immediate dental treatment provided for urgent or emergency dental issues. These can include severe toothaches, dental trauma, broken or chipped teeth, loose or lost dental restorations, and infections. 

When seeking urgent dental care, patients typically receive prompt attention to address their specific dental concern. The dentist will conduct a thorough examination, possibly including diagnostic tests like X-rays, to determine the appropriate course of action. Treatment may involve pain relief, antibiotics for infections, repairs to damaged teeth, or other necessary procedures to alleviate discomfort and restore oral health. Urgent dental care ensures that patients receive timely attention and relief from dental emergencies, promoting their well-being and preventing further complications.

Children Dentistry

Children dentistry, also known as pediatric dentistry, is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on the oral health and dental care of children from infancy through adolescence. It involves providing comprehensive dental services tailored specifically to meet the unique needs of young patients. 

Children dentistry aims to promote good oral hygiene habits, prevent dental issues, and ensure the healthy development of children’s teeth and jaws. Services may include routine dental check-ups, preventive treatments such as fluoride applications and dental sealants, restorative treatments like fillings or crowns, and guidance on proper oral care and diet.

Gentle Deep Cleaning

Gentle deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, is a dental procedure performed to treat gum disease, particularly in its early to moderate stages. It involves a thorough cleaning of the teeth and gums to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that have accumulated below the gumline.

Abundance Dental’s dentist or dental hygienist uses specialized tools to carefully remove the buildup of plaque and tartar from the teeth and roots. They may also smooth the tooth roots (root planing) to promote gum reattachment and prevent further bacterial growth. Gentle deep cleaning aims to eliminate the infection and inflammation caused by gum disease, prevent its progression, and restore gum health. Local anesthesia may be used to ensure comfort during the procedure. It is an important step in maintaining optimal oral health and preventing more severe gum disease complications.

Night Guard

A night guard is a dental device that is custom-made to fit over the teeth and is worn during sleep. It serves as a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth, preventing grinding or clenching, a condition known as bruxism. 

The night guard works by absorbing the force created by grinding or clenching, reducing the strain on the teeth, jaw joints, and muscles. It helps alleviate the symptoms associated with bruxism, such as headaches, jaw pain, and tooth sensitivity. Using a night guard can also prevent the excessive wear and tear of tooth enamel and minimize the risk of dental damage or fractures. It provides a comfortable and practical solution for those who suffer from bruxism, promoting better sleep and preserving oral health.
