Dental Implants
Implants are made of titanium and have special coatings that encourage the fusing of human bone. The top of each implant has an internal screw channel so that crowns, bridges, and or dentures can be screwed in place.
We see nervous patients every day at Davis Dental Center, but thanks to sedation dentistry, we are able to help our patients experience an anxiety-free, relaxing appointment where a majority of dental procedures can be performed at one time. Dr. Rachel has been providing sedation for her patients for many years and is a member of the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation. This means she spends extra time and effort to learn about the best ways to give her patients an exceptional experience so they can receive their necessary dental care without unnecessary stress. If even the thought of visiting the dentist makes you feel tense, be sure to call our office to see how one of the many forms of sedation can help ease your anxiety and help you achieve dental wellness.
Our office provides many different forms of sedation, from basic light sedation utilizing nitrous oxide (A.K.A. Laughing Gas), to Oral Conscious Sedation and IV Conscious Sedation, to a more advanced sedation with a nurse anesthetist. Currently we are partnered with G2 Anesthesia for general anesthesia at our office.
Sedation dentistry is a completely safe procedure that allows the patient to be completely comfortable and relaxed and lets dental professionals perform several dental procedures during the same visit, including:
If you are interested in sedation dentistry, then the first step is to call the office and schedule an initial visit where our trained team and doctors will gather all the necessary information to come up with your personalized treatment plan. At this visit, our team will review your personalized treatment plan and different options for sedation and can schedule the sedation appointment that is right for you. The initial protocol is the same for Oral and IV conscious sedation, you will take a sedative the night before and the day of your appointment, and your companion will bring you to the office. Our team and doctors will access you upon arrival and set you up to monitor your vital throughout the whole procedure. Additional medications and if possible, an IV will be started, to complete the sedation appointment. With conscious sedation, you are still able to communicate with our team and follow basic commands, but you are sedated and very relaxed. Most patients with this form of sedation have some type of amnesia the next day and might only remember bits of their appointment. Sometimes treatment plans are multi-stage or steps and therefor multiple sedation appointments might be necessary.
If you prefer to be completely asleep throughout your dental procedure, then our nurse anesthetist group, G2 Anesthesia, will come to our office and perform Generalize Anesthesia for your benefit. Their team will coordinate with our team for scheduling and medical reviews. It is an easy process and a great way to get all your dental procedures completed at one visit.
If you have any questions about sedation dentistry at Davis Dental Center, please do not hesitate to call our office and speak to one of our trained team members about the process and scheduling your initial visit. We look forward to helping you with all your dental needs.

It is not a given that we must lose teeth as we age. If we maintain good oral hygiene and have regular professional cleanings and oral examinations, chances are we can keep our natural teeth for life.
Although oral cancer may not get as much attention as some more widely-known types of cancer, that doesn't mean it's any less deadly. In fact, it is estimated that in the United States, oral cancer is responsible for killing one person every hour, every day.
Dentistry is an art as well as a science; dental crowns offer a perfect example of this. A dental crown or “cap” is a covering that fits over a damaged, decayed, or unattractive tooth. It can even replace a tooth entirely as part of dental bridgework.
We are proud of the ways in which dentistry can restore broken or decayed teeth to full beauty and function. One of the easiest and least expensive ways of doing this is with dental bonding.
Straighten your teeth with a clear alternative to metal braces. (For Example: Invisalign®)
Clear aligners are a removable, discreet orthodontic treatment. They consist of a series of trays that you wear for several weeks at a time. As your teeth gently move into position, you start using the next set of trays.
Botox and Dermal Fillings, can also be used to treat some TMJ/TMD issues.
Sealants are a thin, protective coating that bonds to the surface of your teeth. When properly applied, sealants can help prevent cavities.
Tooth loss is challenging on many levels. Not only can it affect what you eat and how you chew leading to more serious health concerns, it can also make you feel embarrassed and uncomfortable.
While many of us do our best to keep our teeth healthy, sometimes a tooth needs to be taken out to keep you healthy. In these cases, an extraction is necessary.
Dental fillings are the most conservative way to restore smaller areas of tooth decay. In a dental expert's hands, these types of restorations can be made to conserve as much of your natural tooth as possible while providing a restoration that is almost indistinguishable from the natural tooth. Both resin and porcelain fillings can be adhesively bonded to your natural tooth to add strength.
A root canal is a minimally invasive, nonsurgical endodontic treatment. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and involves opening the crown of the tooth, exposing the roots and pulp of the tooth. When the pulp and root is exposed the infected areas of the tooth are removed.
A root canal is one of the most common dental procedures performed, well over 14 million every year. This simple treatment can save your natural teeth and prevent the need for dental implants or bridges.
At Davis Dental Center, we believe that getting your teeth cleaned every 6 months keep your teeth and gums as healthy as possible.

A wafer-thin glass shell that can be bonded to the front of your teeth to mask their shape, color, or size. The highest quality veneers are made individually by hand and are hard to distinguish from natural teeth. veneers can be used to remarkably transform the smile of patients who have worn, chipped, or discolored teeth. Slightly crooked teeth can be straightened as well. Hand-made porcelain veneers are typically very translucent and when bonded to your teeth they are very lifelike.
