Understanding Dental Procedures

For many, visiting the dentist can be daunting. However, understanding common dental procedures can help alleviate fears. Here’s a closer look at some of the treatments you might encounter at Bedford Dental:

Routine Cleanings

Routine cleanings are essential for maintaining oral health. During these visits, dental hygienists will remove plaque and tartar that regular brushing may miss, followed by a thorough examination by our dentists.

Fillings

If you have a cavity, our dentists will recommend a filling. This process involves cleaning out the decayed area and filling it with durable materials such as composite resin, gold, or amalgam.

Root Canals

A root canal may be necessary if the pulp of the tooth becomes infected. This procedure aims to save the tooth by removing the infected tissue and sealing the tooth to prevent future infections.

Dental Implants

For missing teeth, dental implants provide a long-lasting solution. Implants involve inserting a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as a root for the replacement tooth, ensuring natural function and appearance.

Preventive Care is Key

Preventive care is the cornerstone of maintaining optimal oral health. At Bedford Dental, we emphasize the importance of early intervention to avoid complex procedures in the future. Here are some tips for maintaining good oral hygiene:

• Brush Twice Daily: Use fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush.
• Floss Daily: Flossing helps remove plaque between the teeth where brushes can’t reach.
• Limit Sugary Foods: Reduce your intake of sugars and acids that can lead to cavities.
• Regular Dental Visits: Schedule routine visits to catch issues early and maintain professional cleanings.

The Role of Technology in Dentistry

The integration of technology into dental practices has revolutionized patient care. Here are some technological advancements you can expect at Bedford Dental:

Digital X-Rays

Digital X-rays are faster and emit less radiation than traditional X-rays. They allow our dentists to diagnose dental issues quickly and accurately while providing immediate images for discussion.

CAD/CAM Technology

Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology enables us to produce crowns, veneers, and other restorations on-site. This reduces wait times and allows patients to enjoy same-day treatments.

Teledentistry

In an effort to improve accessibility, especially during challenging times, we offer teledentistry services. This allows patients to consult with our dentists remotely for advice and follow-up care.

Community Involvement and Outreach

At Bedford Dental, our commitment extends beyond our practice. We believe in giving back to the community. Our outreach programs involve:

• Free Dental Camps: Providing basic dental care and education to underserved populations.
• School Programs: Educating children about oral hygiene and healthy eating habits.
• Partnerships with Local Charities: Supporting causes that aim to improve health and wellness in the community.
