General Dentistry
An Honest General Family Dentistry Practice in Argyle, TX
Argyle Advanced Dental Care, in Argyle, Texas, gives patients long-term general family dentistry that keeps their smiles shining. Routine dental care like cleanings and examinations are the foundation of good oral health. Our general dentistry involves much more than just a cleaning, though. We perform many different types of preventive, restorative, and cosmetic care. Patients can come to our office for all their dental needs, from complete smile makeovers to crowns and fillings. Additionally, we have a focus on making dental health highly accessible. Our hours are flexible for busy families, and our team strives to help patients pay little or nothing for preventative care.
Preventative Care at Argyle Advanced Dental Care
The Argyle Advanced Dental Care team offers preventative care as part of our family dentistry practice. Preventative care includes fluoride treatments, sealants, and bonding, but regular cleanings are the core of preventative care. All patients know they should get routine dental cleanings, but many do not know that there are different types. While we always consult with patients to ensure they are getting the correct type of cleaning, it is helpful to understand the differences.
- A prophy cleaning is when we scrape off built-up bacteria and plaque above the gumline.
- Scaling and root planning is a process of deep-cleaning all plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line and smoothing the tooth root for increased gum health.
- The laser therapy deep-cleaning procedure uses high-energy light to eliminate especially tricky pieces of plaque and tartar.
Combining Family Dentistry With Restorative Procedures
The restorative dentistry branch of our practice repairs serious issues in teeth. Filling cavities is one of the most routine procedures in our family dentistry practice. Filling a hole before it gets worse is a genuine health issue and not just a cosmetic concern. When a cavity is left, the decay spreads, possibly to other teeth. Sometimes the decay can be so severe that a filling is no longer an option. In those cases, crowns are often an excellent alternative for entirely replacing the tooth without fully extracting it.
Complete Smile Makeovers for a Better, More Confident You
Beautiful smiles make people more confident and give them a better life. Cosmetic care is part of our family dentistry practice. We take pride in giving everyone a smile that improves their self-esteem. Dr. Johnny works with patients to plan a sequence of procedures that will provide them with a complete smile makeover. No matter how serious dental problems have gotten, we can design a plan to give patients a smile they want. Please do not assume that a tooth is a complete lost cause either; we can always replace a damaged tooth with a natural crown, bridge, or veneer.
