PROTECTING YOUR ORAL HEALTH

There comes a time in your life when you have to have your wisdom teeth out. The pain of having them, the process of removing them and the recovery time is a popular story around many a dinner table. What you might not know is that getting wisdom teeth removed doesn’t have to be an ordeal. Dr. Villar provides comfortable and efficient wisdom teeth extraction plus he can provide safe forms of sedation so the patient can relax during the procedure.

Wisdom teeth removal usually is effective in preventing:

• Red, swollen and painful gums caused by a flap of skin around a wisdom tooth that has only partially come in

• Crowding of the back teeth

• Impacted wisdom teeth

• Gum disease and tooth decay in the wisdom tooth, which may be harder to clean than other teeth; or in the teeth and jaw in the area of the wisdom teeth

Having your wisdom teeth removed by a skilled dentist is key to how you will feel throughout and afterward. Dr. Villar will have you in for a thorough talk and examination with X-Rays. During your procedure, you’ll be monitored at all times and made very comfortable.

Our team will make sure you understand your follow-up care. The most important thing to remember is that having your wisdom teeth removed doesn’t have to be an ordeal.

Endodontics address the tooth pulp and the tissue surrounding the root. Smyrna Family Dentistry is concerned with treatment of the whole tooth not just the outside. Using Periodontics and Endodontics, our dentists are dedicated to preserving the tooth.

• Severe toothache pain with chewing or pressure

• Prolonged sensitivity/pain to heat or cold temperatures

• Discoloration (a darkening) of the tooth

• Swelling and tenderness in the gums

• A persistent or recurring pimple on the gums

Note: Sometimes no symptoms are present!

WHY A ROOT CANAL SAVES YOUR TEETH

In the hands of a skilled endodontist, a root canal can save your teeth. When the root, nerve or pulp of a tooth is badly infected, a root canal is performed to remove the infection. The inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed.

ROOT CANALS GET A BAD RAP

Most people associate a root canal with pain, discomfort, and other bad things. Our doctors’ skill allows the root canal to be performed with a level of comfort and efficiency to ease our patients’ anxieties.

DENTAL TREATMENTS THAT LAST

A common misdiagnosed issue is TMJ, otherwise known as Temporomandibular Joint Disorder. People go to through various head and neck pain not realizing that they actually have a TMJ disorder. The temporomandibular joint connects each end of the lower jaw to the skull’s temporal bone. Normally, these joints have great flexibility and allow the jaw to move upwards, downwards, and side to side, helping facilitate speaking, chewing, and yawning.

COMMON TMJ SYMPTOMS

When suffering from temporomandibular joint disorder, your jaw joint or joints and adjacent facial tissues surrounding the affected joints do not move properly and as smoothly as they normally should. Due to this excess tension and dysfunction in the joint(s) and/or facial muscles, you can possibly experience discomforting symptoms such as popping and clicking jaws, lockjaw, and even swelling on either or each side of the face.

A few common symptoms of TMJ include:

• Jaw pain

• Severe headaches

• Neck pain

• Difficulty with chewing

• Hard to bite down

• Ringing in the ears

These symptoms, as well as others, can make living through the day unbearable. Dr. Villar treats the whole patient to optimize the management of your TMJ condition.
