    In their words

    Our goal is to never make a conventional full lower denture again. We’ve had too many experiences with patients whose quality of life is significantly decreased when they lose their own natural teeth and instead are forced to adjust to wearing bulky plastic floating in their mouths. We don’t want anyone else to suffer through that nightmare, so we strive to make implant overdentures as affordable as possible.

What is emergency dental care?

Emergency dental care treats urgent problems such as severe toothache, a knocked-out or broken tooth, swelling, or bleeding that will not stop. The first goal is to relieve pain and control infection; full treatment may follow at a later visit.

Emergency dental care: specialist or general dentist?

Most dental emergencies are handled by general dentists who keep same-day or after-hours slots. You may be referred to an endodontist or oral surgeon afterward. Facial swelling with fever, trouble breathing or swallowing, or a jaw injury needs a hospital emergency department.
