The Laser Scanner Finds Cavities Years Earlier

Have you ever had a dentist find a cavity and place a large filling, and wondered why the filling is so large if the cavity wasn’t there just six months before? The cavity was there six months before – it just wasn’t big enough to show on X-rays, and it wasn’t visible to the dentist yet. The laser scanner can find cavities years earlier, when the small cavity can be removed and repaired with a small invisible bonded filling. Sometimes patients complain of tooth sensitivity, or mild to severe pain, yet X-rays and examination cannot pinpoint the source. The laser scanner can detect previously undetected decay and, once identified, allow us to remove the discomfort and leave you with a healthy smile.

Six Month Smiles Dentistry Purcellville VA

Straight Teeth in just 6 Months?

Most adults who had to wear braces when they were kids can probably remember the taunts – "tin grin" or "metal mouth." It's probably safe to say that nobody enjoyed wearing those ugly metal braces! And not only that the treatment time was usually measured in years, not months, so the torture seemed endless. All that has changed with Six Month Smiles ™. In most cases you can now have beautiful, straight teeth in just a few months instead of years. This is accomplished using a new technique that is sweeping the dental world. The teeth that are visible in your smile are gently moved into the desired position using a new low force method. Another wonderful advantage with Six Month Smiles is that you can hardly see them! Very thin bands that are either clear or tooth colored are all that's needed. And instead of continual visits to the dentist for adjustments – you'll only need to come in a handful of times. Not everyone is a candidate for Six Month Smiles so call today for a complimentary consultation. Say goodbye to "tin grin" and hello to a new smile in just 6 months!

Dental Implant Dentistry Purcellville VA

Missing Teeth? Why Not ‘Grow’ New Ones!
Dental implants are the ideal way to replace lost teeth. From the front of the mouth, where they are most visible, to the back, where they provide stability to chew a full variety of foods, implants can help you recapture a beautiful and healthy smile. Unlike bridges or removable dentures, which sit on top of the gums, dental implants are placed under the gums. The “tooth” placed on an implant appears life-like, because it comes through the gums just like the original did – it’s like growing a new tooth! Implants can be used to replace any number of lost teeth. Even people with no teeth can benefit from implants, because they can replace their dentures with teeth that don’t move around when they talk, and they don’t need to be taken out at night. Because we handle the entire process from implant placement to crown fabrication, there’s no need to be referred to another office.

Dentistry for Children Purcellville VA

Caring For Kids is Different
Choosing Your Child’s Dentist is Like Choosing Their Pediatrician

At Purcellville Dental, we understand this. Instilling good habits early, in an environment that's comfortable and fun, is essential for a lifetime of good oral health.

To ensure healthy teeth, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by 12 months old. Children’s teeth can be very susceptible to cavities at a young age due to many factors:

• Children are not able to brush well on their own. Because of this, it is important for parents to be involved in their child's daily dental care. This ensures thorough cleaning as well as the development of proper dental habits.

• Little kids tend to eat more often during the day (grazing). This results in a prolonged exposure to acid (every time you eat you make acid), which may cause more cavities.

A tooth that is not as clean as it should be will be exposed to acid when food and juice contact it. This acid often speeds up the development of cavities. The good news is that identifying poor dietary and hygiene habits, along with applying a fluoride varnish to the mineralizing teeth, can significantly reduce the chance of your child having a cavity.
