Conditions We Treat

Impacted teeth occur when there isn’t enough space in the mouth to fully emerge or align properly, often causing pain and discomfort. Commonly affecting the third molars (wisdom teeth), impacted teeth can also lead to infections, gum disease, or damage to surrounding teeth.

At Canyon Dental, we use advanced diagnostic tools to assess the impaction and provide treatment options, including extraction or surgical exposure, to alleviate discomfort and ensure long-term oral health.

Wisdom tooth extractions are a surgical procedure designed to remove one or more problematic wisdom teeth that may not be present. Such extractions become necessary when there is inadequate space for the wisdom teeth to properly emerge, resulting in impaction.

The procedure begins with an incision in the gum tissue if it obstructs the tooth, followed by the expansion of the socket that holds the tooth within the gum. The extraction may occur as a whole or be divided into two or three parts. If needed, the gum will be closed with dissolvable stitches.

It is important to promptly address and treat dental issues for those living with broken and infected teeth. A tooth abscess can develop as a result of dental caries or from a fractured, chipped, or otherwise damaged tooth. When there are breaches in the tooth enamel, bacteria can penetrate and infect the pulp, which is the innermost part of the tooth.

This infection has the potential to extend from the tooth’s root to the surrounding bone structures. A root canal procedure can eliminate the infection and preserve the affected tooth.

Missing teeth can affect your ability to eat, speak, and smile comfortably and may lead to further issues such as misalignment and jawbone recession. This can cause your teeth to shift and your face to develop a sunken, aged appearance.

Dental implants are the “gold standard” for tooth replacement, offering a permanent solution that restores function, appearance, and confidence. Even if you’ve experienced bone loss, we can use bone grafting to ensure the successful placement of your implants and restore your smile.

Treating loose dentures typically involves adjustments and enhancements to improve their fit and function. Denture adhesive can provide temporary relief by enhancing stability, but a more permanent solution often requires professional intervention. We may adjust the dentures’ fit by adding or reshaping the acrylic base or changing the clasps for better retention.

Denture relining or rebasing may sometimes be necessary to ensure a snug fit against the gums. For individuals experiencing severe looseness or discomfort, implant-supported dentures offer a long-term solution by anchoring the dentures securely to dental implants in the jawbone.

Your jawbone relies on tooth roots stimulating it and the regular sensation of chewing to keep it healthy. However, tooth loss can deteriorate the bone unless the missing teeth are replaced quickly, and this bone loss has many short-term and long-term consequences.

You can lose more teeth through a “domino effect” of tooth loss, and your facial features can sink, leading to an aged, unhealthy look. Dental implants restore your smile and help maintain the integrity of your jawbone, preventing further bone loss and preserving your natural facial structure for a youthful, confident appearance.

Gum disease is inflammation and infection affecting the gums and the underlying bone supporting the teeth. While inadequate oral hygiene is a common cause, certain individuals may be more susceptible to this condition.

Symptoms often manifest as persistent bad breath, tooth mobility, and bleeding or swollen gums. Various periodontic treatment options exist, tailored to the severity of the disease. Management of gum disease may involve regular dental cleanings, scaling, root planing, and bone grafting procedures.

The accumulation of dental plaque leads to bleeding gums, which is a prevalent indicator of gingivitis, periodontitis, and various other types of gum disease. However, bleeding gums may also signal additional concerns such as bruxism, diabetes, hormonal changes, and vitamin deficiencies.

A typical treatment for bleeding gums is tooth scaling and root planing, a thorough dental cleaning that removes tartar and bacteria from tooth roots.

Discolored teeth can significantly impact your confidence and willingness to smile. Whether caused by coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, or the natural aging process, tooth discoloration can make even the healthiest smiles appear less attractive. At Canyon Dental, we offer professional whitening treatments designed to restore the natural brightness of your teeth.

Our advanced whitening procedures are safe, effective, and tailored to your specific needs, ensuring optimal results. With our expert care, you can achieve a radiant smile that enhances your overall appearance and boosts your self-esteem. Say goodbye to discolored teeth and hello to a brighter, more confident smile with our professional whitening treatments!

Mishappen, discolored, or cracked teeth can affect your smile’s appearance and function. These imperfections, whether from injury, wear, or natural development, can diminish your confidence and impact your oral health. We offer porcelain veneers and crowns as effective solutions. Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, providing a natural and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

On the other hand, crowns encase the entire tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and function. Both options are crafted from high-quality materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering durable and long-lasting results. With veneers and crowns, we can transform your smile, enhancing its beauty and functionality while boosting your self-esteem.
