Heck Family Dentistry

Dental Examination
After you have been checked in and we’ve asked if you have any pressing dental problems or pain, we’ll begin the appointment by taking some intraoral photographs and X-rays. Then, you’ll be given a comprehensive exam that looks not just at your mouth, but your jaw, head, and neck as well. Your dentist will then discuss their observations with you, make treatment recommendations, and then work with you to put together an ongoing care plan.

Heck Family Dentistry

Dental Examination
After you have been checked in and we’ve asked if you have any pressing dental problems or pain, we’ll begin the appointment by taking some intraoral photographs and X-rays. Then, you’ll be given a comprehensive exam that looks not just at your mouth, but your jaw, head, and neck as well. Your dentist will then discuss their observations with you, make treatment recommendations, and then work with you to put together an ongoing care plan.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
As you can probably guess, it’s easier to successfully treat oral cancer if it’s caught as early as possible. Sadly, it can be harder than you might think to recognize the warning signs without a trained eye. Our team performs an oral cancer screening as a regular part of every checkup. The treatment involves looking for suspicious lumps, sores, or discolored patches in the mouth as well as the lips and throat. We can help you seek follow-up care if needed.

Teeth Cleaning
Not only does good oral hygiene keep your teeth clean and healthy, but it is also essential to your overall health. Poor oral hygiene can lead to a variety of dental problems. In addition, it can exacerbate more serious medical problems, including gum disease, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and kidney disease. As a result, dentists and hygienists recommend teeth be cleaned professionally twice a year. A professional dental cleaning removes dental plaque and tartar and helps to prevent cavities, gingivitis, and gum disease. The average dental cleaning is a routine procedure that takes about an hour.
Fluoride Treatment
How we treat very sensitive teeth: The type of treatment you receive for your tooth sensitivity will ultimately depend on what is causing it to happen in the first place. We’ll need to examine your smile in its entirety to determine the reason for your problem. Once we’ve established the issue, we will create a personalized treatment plan. If your tooth enamel is worn or weakened, there is, unfortunately, no way to replace it, so we may recommend that you use desensitizing toothpaste, prescription mouthwash, or have a topical fluoride treatment to help strengthen existing enamel. If a serious tooth infection or gum disease is the culprit, antibiotics, gum disease, treatment, a gum graft, or root canal therapy may be necessary.
Dental Sealants
You can certainly teach your child the best way to brush their teeth, but until they’ve fully developed the skill, we can provide them with an additional safety net in the form of a dental sealant. This is a protective coating made out of plastic or a similar type of material that bonds directly with the teeth. It acts as a barrier against food particles and bacteria. Sealants do not completely eliminate the need for brushing, but they can reduce the risk of cavities in molars by up to 80%.

Fillings
Resin Composite
A composite resin material is used to repair minor concerns, like decay or fractures. The resin is shaded to the color of enamel to blend in with the natural tooth structure. Only a trained dental professional will know it isn't part of your tooth when used to enhance its appearance, function, or health.
Veneers
At Heck Family Dentistry, our team of dentists has the experience and training to provide patients with cosmetic solutions that are designed to transform appearances. Offering porcelain veneers, these popular restorations can hide nearly every tooth imperfection while creating a long-lasting, beautiful, and natural aesthetic. If you are struggling to feel confident and often find yourself forgoing time with family and friends because of your smile, contact our office to schedule a consultation with a member of our team. Let us help you take the next step to achieve a truly transformational smile.

Bridges
Dental bridges in Lawrence have been used for decades to treat consecutive tooth loss. Although they are a tried-and-proven method, a bridge is a big investment. Your dentist will explain everything during your consultation to feel confident in the decision you are making for your smile. Here are the answers to a few frequently asked questions to ease any apprehensions.
Dental Bonding
There are more options than ever to correct common aesthetic concerns, like stains or chips. However, cosmetic bonding continues to rank among the top elective dental treatments year after year.
Restorative Dentistry
A broken or decayed tooth can be challenging to eat or smile with, but you don’t have to give up on it altogether. As long as enough of the tooth’s structure is still intact, Dr. Heck and Dr. Beshore can repair it with an appropriate dental restoration. Heck Family Dentistry of Lawrence is your stop for long-lasting, natural-looking crowns and fillings that can keep your weakened teeth safe and renew your confidence in your smile. Call us today for restorative dentistry in Lawrence, KS if you have an injured tooth that needs attention.

Root Canal Treatment
At our dental office, we complete root canal treatments in one visit, unless the issue has gone untreated for an extended period of time and calcification occurs. In these instances, it may be necessary for us to refer you to a root canal specialist. In all other cases, our dentists use high-resolution cameras and top-of-the-line special rotary nickel-titanium instruments to complete root canal therapy in our Lawrence, KS dental office efficiently and painlessly.

Say goodbye to dental pain: Before you know it, we’ll be getting to work on your smile to preserve your teeth and relive your pain, whether that’s with a filling, antibiotics, a deep cleaning, root canal therapy, or any of our other numerous treatments.

Dentures
No one ever thinks they will lose all of their natural teeth, but it’s an unfortunate reality for more than 40 million Americans. Dentures have been a way for people with missing teeth to rebuild their smiles for generations, and thanks to modern dental technology, today’s dentures are nothing like the uncomfortable, awkward prosthetics your parents or grandparents might have worn. Modern dentures use incredibly realistic materials that look and feel more natural than ever before, making it easy to smile after tooth loss. To get started on enjoying a complete smile again, contact our team at Heck Family Dentistry to schedule a consultation for dentures in Lawrence, KS.

At Heck Family Dentistry of Lawrence, we are committed to providing you with the highest quality services possible. Our dentists have extensive training and experience performing tooth replacement with dental implants in Lawrence, Kansas.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
If you’ve never had oral surgery before, you may be unsure which side-effects are normal and which ones you should be concerned about. One thing to keep in mind while you heal is that any effect you experience should be temporary and gradually subside as time goes by. If anything seems to be worsening rather than improving, don’t hesitate to contact our office for assistance. That said, here’s what you can expect while recovering...
Tooth Extractions
At Heck Family Dentistry of Lawrence, we will do all we can to treat your teeth and remedy any dental maladies. In cases that require extractions, we will ensure the procedure is done with the utmost care, minimizing your discomfort, and maximizing your well-being. Our dentists have the necessary skills and experience to perform tooth extractions in Lawrence, KS.
Ridge Augmentation
We often say that dental implants in Lawrence get placed in the jawbone, but that a simplification. In reality, they are placed in a portion of the jaw called the alveolar ridge. If the ridge is too narrow to support dental implants, we may need to perform a procedure known as ridge expansion or ridge augmentation.
Bone Grafting
Today, Dr. Beshore has over 1,000 hours of continuing education under his belt, which includes time spent learning from the world-renowned Dawson Academy, Spear Center, and DOCS for oral sedation. He’s undergone state-of-the-art training for dental implant placements, full mouth rehabilitation, bone grafting techniques, and more through Implant Direct, the Zimmer Institute, and Arrowhead.

Orthodontics
When a tooth is broken, cracked, or extensively decayed, it may be necessary to remove it. Other common reasons for extractions include creating space in the mouth in preparation for orthodontics or remedying excessive crowding when a tooth is unable to break through the gums. Likewise, a tooth with advanced stages of periodontal disease should be removed, as well as teeth that are poorly positioned or non-functional.
Braces
At Heck Family Dentistry of Lawrence, we provide Smart Moves technology for teeth straightening. Smart Moves is a clear aligner system that allows you to straighten your teeth without bulky braces. In fact, Smart Moves aligners are barely visible. Contact Heck Family Dentistry of Lawrence today to learn about Smart Moves and what it can do for you.
