Mouthguards provide protection against injury during high-impact sports that could lead to reconstructive dental surgery.

Dental emergencies can happen anywhere, at any time, even if you take excellent care of your mouth and teeth. Around 22% of American adults have reported experiencing tooth or mouth pain in the last six months. This proves how common dental emergencies are.
At Smiles By Design, our oral surgeon or dentist can remove your tooth. A local anesthetic is first injected to numb the area and prevent you from feeling pain during the procedure. However, you will be aware of the surrounding environment.
Dental fillings are used to treat dental cavities. When a tooth decays, it loses functionality and shape, exacerbating deterioration and causing pain and sensitivity. A dental filling helps restore the tooth’s shape and prevent further damage from decay. Fillings close off the area of the tooth exposed to the cavity, which prevents food, bacteria, and other foreign matter from getting inside.
Periodontic treatment or periodontics is specialty dental care that addresses periodontal (gum) disease and is available at Smiles By Design in Arvada.
