A Treatment To Save Your Smile

Ackley Dental Group, General Dentistry

At Ackley Dental Group, our goal is to help restore your oral health and save your natural teeth whenever possible. Unfortunately, there are many factors that can contribute to the deterioration of your oral health, such as age, food preferences, medications, oral hygiene and family history. We will attempt every possible solution before recommending an extraction. We often use one treatment in particular as a last resort to save the natural tooth, and that is a root canal. There is no better time to learn more about root canals since this is Root Canal Awareness Month.

Learn More About Implant Retained Dentures

Ackley Dental Group, Restorative Dentistry

There are a number of reasons why a patient may need to have a tooth extracted. At Ackley Dental Group, we aim to restore the function of the mouth as soon as possible to avoid further complications with your oral and overall health. One tooth replacement option we may recommend to patients is implant retained dentures. As the name implies, implant retained dentures are a combination of dental implants and dentures that can be used to replace multiple teeth and even a full row of teeth. This treatment method consists of a removable denture that is anchored in place by a small number of dental implants.

What To Know About Gum Disease

Ackley Dental Group, General Dentistry

From the time of our youth we learn about the importance of properly caring for our teeth to prevent tooth decay. While this is fantastic and greatly helps many patients avoid the need for dental treatments, other important areas of the mouth also need to be properly cared for to prevent serious oral health complications. The gums are one area that often is overlooked when it comes to oral health and oral care. Lack of gum care can lead to gum disease, which is an inflammation or infection in the gums. When gum disease remains untreated and is allowed to progress, it can cause damage to the jawbone that supports the teeth.

Two Helpful Tips For A Child’s Visit To The Dentist

Ackley Dental Group, Pediatric Dentistry

February is Children’s Dental Health Month — a month dedicated to the awareness and promotion of healthy hygiene habits in children, which includes the importance of routine dental hygiene examinations. At Ackley Dental Group, we are proud to offer personalized dental care for each stage of life, including our young patients who are in need of their first dental visit. It is recommended for children to visit the dentist within six months after the eruption of their first tooth or around their first birthday; however, we know that, due to a variety of reasons, there are many children much older than one who have not yet visited the dentist. No matter the reason, there is no time like the present to make their first appointment.
