Are you looking for a way to turn your stained, cracked, chipped, or misaligned smile into one of your greatest assets? With porcelain veneers, you can.
Porcelain veneers are handcrafted from durable dental porcelain and placed on the front of your teeth by Dr. Heap. The whole process takes only two visits and the finished results look completely natural, meaning that you can finally have the dazzling smile you’ve been dreaming of.
We recommend removing your wisdom teeth between the age of 17 and 19 to minimize complications. But we know how nervous oral surgery can make some patients. That’s why our office uses IV sedation for our wisdom tooth extractions. You can rest comfortably during the procedure and you won’t remember a thing when it’s over.
Wisdom Teeth—A Real Pain in the Mouth
As your wisdom teeth try to force their way through your gums, your smile can become susceptible to a wide range of trouble, including impaction, misalignment, jaw pain, and gum disease. Bacteria and food can find their way beneath an impacted tooth, causing infection. A molar that’s coming through at an odd angle can put pressure on your other teeth, leading to misalignment and potentially damaging healthy roots. And wisdom teeth that have developed cysts can damage your jaw, requiring more extensive surgery.
Making Wisdom Tooth Extraction Comfortable with Sedation
Having your wisdom teeth removed doesn’t have to be scary. Our office uses IV sedation to make you comfortable before the procedure begins. When you awaken afterwards, we bet you won’t even remember anything about the procedure at all.
It’s better to have your wisdom teeth removed sooner rather than later. More than just an annoyance, they can have serious consequences for your smile if left alone. Call our office today to set up an appointment with Dr. Heap. Removing your wisdom teeth now can save your smile.
