Dental Checkups for the New Year

January 16, 2013

Start the New Year off right with a dental checkup appointment at Dr. King Scott’s office. Make a commitment to your dental health this year and come see us every six months for healthy teeth!

You may be asking yourself why you need to keep coming back if you’re brushing twice a day and rinsing with Listerine after you brush and your teeth seem fine. A dental checkup is crucial because there are many things that could be going on with your teeth that you cannot see or remove yourself. Plaque and bacteria and calculus can build up on your teeth, and can only be removed by our dental team.

We are also checking you for signs of oral cancer, periodontal disease or other dental health concerns. If left unchecked, these can cause a threat to your overall general health and certainly your total dental health. Since there may not be a lot of symptoms, it is essential that you come see us regularly. With regular care and examinations, these issues can be detected and treated appropriately, helping you have a healthy, terrific smile.

Your old restorative dental work maybe wearing out and may be in need of replacement because of wear or decay. We will ensure the health of your teeth by doing a comprehensive tooth by tooth exam for cavities, decayed fillings and broken down filling along with and other dental concerns.

A dental checkup is an important tool to help ensure the best health of your teeth. Come in a minimum of two times a year to keep your smile shining bright!

Dr. King Scott’s West Monroe, LA dental office is dedicated to creating beautiful, healthy smiles. We serve patients from Monroe, Ruston, Rayville, Farmersville, Columbia, Winnsboro, Delhi, South Arkansas, and all of greater North Louisiana. Call us today to schedule an appointment!

Implant Dentistry: The Solution to Missing Teeth

December 18, 2012

Are you ashamed of your missing teeth? Do you find yourself avoiding pictures, or even social situations, because you’re ashamed of the state of your mouth? The time for hiding is over! You should consider implant dentistry from Dr. King Scott’s office.

Dental implants are one of the best ways to replace missing teeth. There are two different kinds, dental implants and implant-retained dentures. Dental implants are best for replacing one or a few missing teeth, while implant-retained dentures work best for a few missing teeth all in a row.

Both types of implants will require a small surgery to attach the implant posts to your jaw. Once these have healed, Dr. Scott will attach either the individual replacement teeth or the denture. Since they’re attached to the bone, these implants will function just like your natural teeth.

If you have missing teeth you’d like replaced, please give our office a call! You’ll start by having a consultation with Dr. Scott, where he’ll go over your options and see if you’re a good candidate for dental implants. Then, he’ll create a treatment plan for you and you’ll be on your way to having a mouth full of healthy teeth once again!
