Dealing With a Dental Emergency?

Issues like tooth fractures, knocked-out teeth, severe toothaches, and damaged restorations need prompt attention from a skilled dental team. If you’re experiencing a dental emergency, we’ll provide you with the care you need as soon as possible.

We Keep High-Quality Care Accessible Our Practice Accepts Insurance and CareCredit®

Everyone should have access to great dental care, which is why we accept most types of insurance. Our team will happily verify what general dentistry services your insurance covers before your treatment begins. If you don’t have insurance or want to make out-of-pocket expenses more manageable, you can use CareCredit® to split the cost of your treatment into monthly payments.

Your Comfort Is Our Priority

We Offer Sedation to Keep You Relaxed

We understand that some patients may feel anxiety surrounding dental visits — and may push off getting the care they need out of fear that they’ll experience pain or extreme discomfort. Rest assured, our team maintains a calming atmosphere and offers three forms of sedation dentistry to keep you relaxed while you’re in the dental chair:

  • Oral conscious: You’ll take a sedative medication in the form of a pill about an hour before your procedure. This will help keep you comfortable while you’re in the chair.
  • Nitrous oxide: Also known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide is administered through a small nosepiece. This option can be used for fillings, extractions, cleanings, and more, and you can drive yourself home after your visit.
  • Intravenous (IV) sedation: Medications are administered through an IV line. This method is best for patients with severe anxiety or undergoing more involved procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions About General Dentistry at Our Kenai Practice

How often should I visit for exams?

You should visit the dentist at least twice a year for an exam and teeth cleaning. Dr. Tavoian may recommend more frequent visits initially, depending on health history and lifestyle factors, during an initial consultation.

When is a root canal necessary?

There are a few common signs you should visit us to determine if you have a root canal infection. If you’re dealing with symptoms like persistent tooth pain, extreme sensitivity to hot or cold, or swollen gums, give us a call.

What if I need a tooth extracted?

Our dentist will do everything to preserve your natural teeth. If extraction is necessary, he will recommend placing a dental implant. This restorative solution prevents nearby teeth from shifting and the jawbone deterioration tied to tooth loss.

I want to change the appearance of my smile. Can you help?

While general dentistry promotes a healthy foundation, it may not give you the level of dazzling results you’re after. Fortunately, we offer cosmetic dentistry procedures that can correct or conceal blemishes that you feel hold your smile back.
