This past weekend our Highlands Ranch dentist had a number of dental emergencies that were received.  Their patients called complaining of pain on several different teeth.  Was it the change of weather or just what participated these calls? Quite frankly we do not know but what they “all” had in common was our Highlands Ranch dentist  had recommended that they see a specialist to address their issue. Our dental office serves dental patients in the Denver,Lone Tree, Castle Pines Ken Caryl, Centennial and Greenwood Village.

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it

This is what one of the patients had commented some months prior.  More accurately he should have stated… if it doesn’t hurt don’t fix it. That part was correct but the area (an abscess) was present so in reality it was “broke” it just did not provide any symptom. Cancers, high blood pressure and diabetes may not produce a symptom until it is too late so prevention and early detection and treatment is the key.

Waiting for a symptom is risky

Our Highlands Ranch dentist does not recommend you wait until you get a symptom before you need any medical or dental treatment. When a symptom occurs the cost to treat the tooth skyrockets compared to addressing the problem in an earlier stage. Another symptom that you should be aware of is pain on chewing.  One of the several differential diagnosis is “cracked tooth syndrome”. If detected and treated early it may “just’ need a crown.  However, if the crack persists down the root surface a root canal or extracting the tooth may be your option.

Take Care of Yourself

Many of our Highlands Ranch dentists patients put their needs last in their family.  Consider early detection by your physician or dentist to be a priority of  your family.

Wedding planning involves so many elements ranging from who to invite to who will do the wedding cake. Highlands Ranch dentists Dr. James DeLapp and Dr. H. Candace DeLapp have seen an increase in the number of brides, grooms and Mothers and Fathers of the brides and grooms wanting to look their best on this special day. Cosmetic dentistry may be the answer.

Dental teeth whitening Highlands Ranch Colorado

Your have many options and alternatives to look your best.  One of the simplest and fastest cosmetic dentistry options includes dental whitening or bleaching of  your teeth.  For most patients it is simple and effective. The choices include one hour whitening (Luma) to take home trays on difficult to whiten teeth.

Dental Veneers

Dental veneers is an option for others. Highlands Ranch dental veneers take much longer to do and more lead time is needed if this is something you wish to investigate. We recommend at least two month ahead of the big day for this treatment. The treatment can be accomplished in two to three weeks but pre-planning… digital photographic evaluation and diagnostic wax-up should be planned carefully.  More time is better than less time.

Other cosmetic dentistry options

Our Highlands Ranch dentists have so many other cosmetic dental options that “may” be of benefit this includes Invisalign to dental implants.  These types of dental treatment can take a year or more to finalize.  If these are options you have thought about in the past please call our office at your earliest convienience.

Our Highlands Ranch dentist may be able to help you look your best at one of the most important days in you or your child’s life.  If you would like to discuss your options please feel free to contact our office and schedule a consult at (303) 694-9740.  If you would prefer to send us an e-mail please click the following link Highlands Ranch dentist.
