General and Preventative Care in Kyle & Austin, TX

Dental Exams

Periodic dental exams are essential for keeping your smile healthy. We’ll assess any changes in your dental health, talk about any concerns you have, and act immediately if additional care is required during these visits. We are able to help you avoid preventable dental problems because we use high-definition CBCT X-rays that can pinpoint problems using 3D imaging for care planning purposes.

Preventative Cleanings

The majority of our patients with healthy teeth and gums benefit from a professional dental cleaning every six months. During your visit, we will gently remove buildup and analyze any issues such as sensitivity or swollen tissues. If your oral health requires a more customized oral hygiene routine, we can suggest home care techniques to address specific issues.

Periodontal Care

Periodontal therapy, rather than “normal” cleaning, will be recommended if you have active gum disease. Standard dental cleanings are aimed to decrease your risk of gum disease because they are preventive in nature. Periodontal therapy, also known as “deep cleaning” or a “scaling and root planing” involves cleaning the areas beneath the gumlines where the disease is present. We will provide you with the resources you need to care for your smile and stop disease progression as we create a clean, stable environment around your teeth.

Custom Mouthguards

If you or your child participates in contact sports or other physical recreational activities, our Kyle dentist strongly advises wearing a sports mouthguard. This appliance prevents teeth from breaking and may save a tooth from being knocked out accidentally. It may also lower your risk of concussion.

If you’re prone to clenching or grinding your teeth, we can also fit you with a bite splint or nightguard to reduce tension on your mouth. This protective appliance reduces TMJ pain, headaches, and worn enamel as it eases the tension caused by bruxism.

Individualized Care

Every smile is unique. Our Kyle, TX dentists are happy to create an individualized care plan that meets your needs (and your budget!) whether you have a small cavity or are ready to discuss comprehensive full mouth restoration. Among the general dental services we provide are:

• Dental fillings using minimally invasive techniques
• Crowns and bridges made of porcelain or zirconia
• Extractions and placement of dental implants
• Dentures, including snap-on alternatives

Advanced Technological Care

Our practice uses cutting-edge digital imaging technology to help facilitate your care and decrease the amount of radiation used for treatments such as 3D imaging and digital scanning. To provide the best care possible, Sleek Dental has made an investment in 3D CBCT/cone beam scanning equipment and digital imaging that eliminates the need for messy impressions.

We can then create a computer model of your anatomy for treatment planning purposes. It’s especially useful in dental implant treatment or full mouth restoration.

Emergency Dentistry

The first thing you should do if you have a dental emergency is call Sleek Dental as soon as possible. As soon as you arrive at our office, our staff will walk you through the necessary actions and make arrangements to accommodate you. We are open until 8 p.m., and we also offer weekend emergency dental appointments.

Sedation Dentistry

There’s no reason to worry about your procedure. During treatment, we offer a variety of sedation dentistry options to help you relax and remain comfortable. As a result, your treatment will be more comfortable and streamlined.
