Dental Examination
A comprehensive dental examination involves the close inspection of the teeth and tissues of the mouth using physical assessment and other diagnostic aids. The examination identifies tooth decay and evaluates the health of the gums and other oral tissues. The patient’s bite and oral hygiene are also assessed. The dentist then recommends the best treatment options.

Teeth Cleaning
Never put any pain killers, including aspirin, on the gum because it can burn the gum tissue. Clean your mouth out by rinsing thoroughly with warm water. Gently floss around the tooth to remove any food particles that may be caught there. If your tooth continues to hurt, you should call your dentist as soon as possible. A toothache can result from several dental problems. Regular dental check ups and dental cleanings can help prevent toothaches.
Fluoride Treatment

Fillings
Veneers
A veneer is a thin shield of porcelain used as a covering that is placed over the front surface of the tooth. Veneers are usually applied to the part of the tooth you can see when talking or smiling. Veneers require less tooth material removal then crowns.
Crowns
A tooth can become inflamed or infected for several reasons, including severe tooth decay or a crack or chip in the tooth. Failing restorations such as dental fillings and dental crowns can foster bacterial leakage into the dental pulp. Once infected, the dental pulp begins to die and the body’s inflammatory responses set it. The combination of infection and inflammation can cause significant pain. The end result is a toothache.
Bridges
A dental bridge is an excellent way to replace one or more missing teeth and restore stability to your mouth. Like all bridges, a dental bridge needs abutments to hold it in place and to provide support. A dental bridge is attached to the teeth next to the space, and those teeth act as supportive abutments for your replacement tooth. We prepare your teeth and, from impressions your bridge is carefully crafted to fit your teeth precisely.
Restorative Dentistry
A dental filling is a type of restorative dentistry treatment used to repair minimal tooth fractures, tooth decay or otherwise damaged surfaces of the teeth. Enamel loss is a common component of tooth decay, and may result in tooth sensitivity. In many cases, tooth sensitivity caused by enamel loss will be significantly improved or completely eliminated once an appropriate dental filling material is placed.

Root Canal Treatment
A root canal is a dental procedure that is used to remove diseased pulp tissue from the interior of a tooth. This is necessary when an untreated cavity reaches all the way to the nerve tissue of the tooth. The dentist treats the inner aspects of the tooth by cleaning out and disinfecting the canals of the tooth.

Dentures
Even when a single tooth is lost a denture may not be required as a bridge can be made which spans the gap with a tooth attached to those next to the space.

Dental Implants
A mini dental implant is a miniature titanium implant with a round head that is placed into your jaw, which acts like the root of Read More

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Dr. McConnell graduated from UNMC College of Dentistry in 2007. After Dental School, he completed a 1 year Oral Surgery Fellowship and served as Oral Surgery Faculty during his fellowship year. The next year, in 2008, he joined Midlands Dental Group. He practices with a focus on Oral Surgery, IV Sedation and implant dentistry. He truly loves his patients and being a dentist. In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his family, traveling and exploring great food.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extraction/removal is the extraction of a tooth permanently from its socket in the jaw bone. If a tooth has been broken or damaged by decay, there is sometimes too much damage for the tooth to be repaired. This is the most common reason for extracting a tooth.

Orthodontics
Braces
Temporarily reattach loose braces with a small piece of orthodontic wax. Alternatively, place the wax over the braces to provide a cushion. See your orthodontist as soon as possible. If the problem is a loose band, save it and call your orthodontist for an appointment to have it recemented or replaced (and to have missing spacers replaced).

Teeth Whitening
Tooth whitening is a common cosmetic dental by dentists to make teeth whiter and brighter. Teeth can take on a yellowish tint due to foods such as coffee and soda. Tooth whitening is safe and relatively painless for most patients.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry can change not only your appearance, but your outlook on life. A smile can be the most eye-catching feature of a face. With dentistry’s many advances, you no longer have to settle for stained, chipped, or misshapen teeth. You now have choices that can help you smile with confidence. Once exclusively the domain of the rich and famous, cosmetic dentistry procedures can help all patients to improve their smile at a very reasonable cost.
