Family Dentistry

Routine Dental Cleanings

Regular dental checkups are essential for optimal oral health. They help prevent dental problems, detect early signs of issues, and maintain a healthy smile. Pay attention to the importance of routine checkups – they are vital to keeping your teeth and gums in great shape!

Infant Laser Frenectomy

A baby or infant who is tongue-tied or lip-tied may suffer from the condition much more than an adult. This is because, in infants, these issues can cause feeding difficulties. An overly tight lingual frenulum can cause problems with latching or swallowing, weight gain, and nutrition in nursing infants. In such a case, frenum removal, or at least a shortening through a laser lingual frenectomy, may be necessary to help your child eat and grow properly. The frenectomy for children and babies procedure is fast and painless, so it does not require anesthesia. An infant frenectomy is a minimally invasive procedure, and your child can resume feeding immediately with more.

Dental Fillings & Crowns

Dental fillings and crowns are essential for restoring teeth damaged by decay or trauma. Fillings prevent bacteria from penetrating the enamel, while crowns provide substantial protection and durability to maintain oral function and aesthetics.

Dental Emergencies

Sometimes, teeth become fractured by trauma, grinding, or biting on hard objects. In other cases, fillings, crowns, and other restorative devices can be damaged or completely fall out of the mouth. If there is severe pain, it is essential to call our office immediately 208-466-3239.

Pediatric Dentistry

Our office can provide care for the child’s oral health and hygiene. Particular emphasis is placed on the proper maintenance and care of deciduous (baby) teeth, which facilitate good chewing habits, proper speech production, and space for permanent teeth. We also evaluate growth patterns and provide intervention for optimal function and growth if necessary.

Dental implants provide permanent solutions to missing teeth, restoring the ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently. They preserve bone health, prevent adjacent teeth from shifting, and provide a long-lasting, natural-looking replacement option for improved oral function and aesthetics.

Orthodontic Care

Orthodontic care is crucial in correcting misaligned bites and straightening teeth. It improves oral function, enhances aesthetics, and prevents dental problems. With orthodontic treatment, individuals can achieve a healthy, confident smile that lasts a lifetime.
