Incredible advances in dentistry have resulted in a much wider range of dental services. At Skulman Dental, we have remained at the forefront of the latest research and technologies, since our practice was established in 1987. We are equipped with state-of-the-art technology and a staff of dental industry experts to offer exceptional care and custom general dentistry in Dallas for our patients.
Professional Cleanings & Dental Exams
General dentistry in Dallas begins with good oral hygiene and regular professional cleanings. Good oral health is essential to your general health, and poor oral hygiene has been shown to contribute to a broad range of dental and health problems. Poor oral health can lead to infection, gum disease, and health conditions such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
How Often Should You Visit The Dentist?
Professional dental cleaning and examination is recommended at least every six months. Preventative care is essential for maintaining a healthy smile.During professional cleaning, plaque and tartar are removed to prevent cavities and gum disease. We perform a variety of cleaning procedures from regular cleanings and scaling to tooth whitening to meet our patients’ needs.
Natural Looking Fillings
For generations, metals were used to fill cavities. Most people are familiar with the dark gray color of silver fillings in the teeth. Today, there is a much more natural looking option available with composite fillings. These fillings are made with a natural tooth colored resin, which can be matched to the natural color of your teeth. This type of filling also provides a great seal for preventing future tooth decay.
When determining the best type of filling material, we consider:
- The location where the filling is needed
- The size of filling that is required
- Your preferences
- The cosmetic benefits
Composite fillings are not always the best option for every patient. For example, the material is less durable than other materials, such as amalgam or metal fillings. When used in the teeth that handle most of the chewing pressure, the composite material may not hold up as well as other types of fillings. We offer the best materials and methods for general dentistry in Dallas with care that is customized to each patient. We can help you explore your options and recommend the best filling for your situation.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions are a common procedure in Dallas general dentistry. While we make every attempt to treat dental problems, the damage is too extensive in some situations and the tooth needs to be extracted. When a tooth is broken, extensively decayed, or there is advanced periodontal disease, tooth extraction may be needed.
