McCall Dental

We all love feeling fresh and clean, and having our mouths feel that way is equally as wonderful. Getting in to check your teeth and gums by an oral health professional, specifically through routine cleaning and checkup, is the best method. Having a clean oral cavity eliminates bad breath and helps reduce plaque and tartar from gathering and spreading along your gum line and down into your roots. If you live in Calgary and would like to learn more about this procedure or how you might benefit, please call us to schedule an appointment.

Kids & Teens Dentistry We love our kids and would do anything for them. A big part of being a parent or guardian is ensuring our children stay healthy, including prioritizing their dental health. As a general rule of thumb, it’s recommended that you bring in your child for their first dental appointment by their very first birthday or when their first tooth emerges. Regular checkups every six months should then be completed so that good oral health for the kid can be maintained, and any issues may be treated while they are relatively small.

A dental implant is a simple yet highly effective way to replace a missing tooth for most patients. Dental implant systems consist of a dental implant body and abutment and may include an abutment fixation screw. The dental implant body is surgically inserted in the jawbone in place of the tooth's root. The dental implant abutment is usually attached to the implant body by the abutment fixation screw and extends through gums into the mouth to support the attached artificial teeth. In addition to how a dental implant can improve a person's physical appearance and restore their confidence, it can also prevent further dental issues.

Hydrogen peroxide and Carbamide peroxide are the two most frequently used bleaching agents. Each of these substances can penetrate below the enamel and dentin that reside on the surface of your teeth to get rid of discoloration.

A dental crown is a covering for the tooth, which is generally made from materials like porcelain, metal or ceramic. A dental bridge uses two crowns to fill a gap between one or multiple missing teeth. The bridge's center is a false tooth called a pontic which fills the gap. Needing a little extra protection for your teeth is by no means a bad thing. When you receive a dental crown, your tooth will be protected from further damage and strengthen and repair the appearance of your entire smile.

You’ve no doubt heard of dental fillings. Many people have undergone this treatment, making it a common dental experience. Cavities don’t discriminate, but they can cause damage to your teeth and the entirety of your smile if left unaddressed. Dental fillings treat cavities by removing the decayed portion of the tooth and then filling the area with anesthetic material such as porcelain, zirconia or composite resin.

Root Canal or endodontic treatment is necessary when the pulp, the soft tissue inside the root canal, becomes inflamed or infected. The inflammation or infection can have a variety of causes: deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the tooth or a crack or chip in the tooth. In addition, an injury to a tooth may cause pulp damage even if the tooth has no visible chips or cracks. If pulp inflammation or infection is left untreated, it can cause pain or lead to an abscess. If your tooth is infected, damaged or develops deep decay, root canal therapy can relieve your pain while saving your tooth. Here are a few symptoms that mean you might need a root canal: Severe pain while chewing or biting Pimples on the gums A chipped or cracked tooth Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the sensation has been removed Swollen or tender gums Deep decay or darkening of the gums If you live in Calgary and want to learn more about this procedure or how you might benefit, please call us to schedule an appointment.

Do you have a fear of going to the dentist? Do you find it hard to sit still? Maybe you have an overactive gag reflex. There’s no need to worry; all these issues can be addressed through sedation dentistry. It is a safe and effective way to provide comfort, relaxation, and an amnesiac effect during dental treatment. At McCall Dental, we believe that all our patients should be kept as comfortable as possible, and our staff will do their utmost to ensure that this happens whenever you come in. Don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions about sedation dentistry. Types of Sedation Dentistry 1. Nitrous oxide sedation. The colloquial term for nitrous oxide sedation is “laughing gas.” You’ll inhale this through a mask that covers your nose and mouth. It works very quickly and wears off just as fast. You won’t fall asleep, and you’ll be able to respond to your dentist if need be. 2. Oral sedation. As the name illustrates, oral sedation involves swallowing a pill that contains the sedative medication at least one hour before your appointment. Oral sedation provides light to moderate sedation for anxious patients. While under sedation, you will be in a deeply relaxed state and will be responsive when spoken to. Your vital signs are monitored throughout the procedure while the dentist completes their work. Our dental clinic offers Nitrous Oxide sedation and Oral sedation to all our patients.
