- MMMatt4 days ago5.0I hadn’t gone to any Dentist in years because of bad experiences at other dentists when I was younger. 2 years ago I finally worked up the nerve to start going again and was referred to Dental Designs by a friend. I wish I had found this place years ago! The entire staff is fantastic! They’re friendly and skilled and I no longer dread going to the dentist. Every appointment has been quick and painless. Highly recommend to everyone.

- CLCassandra LepireAug 22, 20133.0I have been going to this dentist for years, ever since he was still down the street with Dr. Sheffield. I would like to clarify that he is a great dentist, but he has some bad cleaners here. Every time that I went since they moved here, I was placed with a different cleaner. The last time I went, this woman was so horrible and rude that I was actually in tears when I left. I'm used to being told that I should floss daily, but whenever I made as much as a squirm from being in pain she would snap "Well maybe if you flossed you wouldn't be crying right now. Maybe then you wouldn't hate me so much." I almost walked out in the middle of the session. I drove straight down the street and scheduled my next appointment with Dr. Sheffield with the cleaner I had for years previously who I know will NOT be so rude! I will NEVER go back there again!!!! I would give the cleaners 0 stars if possible, but because the actual dentist is good at his job, I will give this place 3 stars.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Designs
How often should I floss?
Daily flossing is recommended to prevent cavities from developing between teeth, where toothbrushes cannot reach effectively. Regular flossing also contributes to maintaining healthy gums.
What's the difference between a "crown" and a "cap"?
Crowns and caps are essentially the same thing - restorations used to repair severely damaged teeth. They cover all or most of the tooth after removal of old fillings, fractured tooth structure, and decay. These restorations can be made from various materials including gold, porcelain, composites, or stainless steel. Dentists use the term 'crown' for all these restorations, while patients often refer to tooth-colored ones as 'caps' and metal ones as 'crowns'.
What's the difference between a "bridge" and a "partial denture"?
Both bridges and partial dentures are used to replace missing teeth. A bridge is permanently attached to adjacent teeth or implants, while a partial denture is removable and attached to existing teeth with clasps. Generally, patients tend to prefer bridges over partial dentures.
What about "silver" fillings versus "white" fillings?
While amalgam (silver) fillings are considered safe by the U.S. Public Health Service, many patients now prefer tooth-colored composite fillings. These 'white' fillings bond to the tooth structure, potentially strengthening teeth weakened by decay. They are often less sensitive to temperature changes and offer improved aesthetics. However, tooth-colored fillings aren't suitable for all situations, and severely damaged teeth may require a crown for optimal results.
Do I need to have a root canal just because I have to have a crown?
Not necessarily. While many teeth that have undergone root canal treatment require crowns to restore strength and function, not every tooth needing a crown requires a root canal procedure.
Why are my teeth sensitive?
Tooth sensitivity often results from minor gum recession, which exposes the underlying dentin. This allows easier access for food and water to reach sensitive nerve endings. Various treatments are available, including specialized toothpastes, gels, and dental procedures. If you experience significant tooth sensitivity, we recommend discussing your options with our dental team.
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is an artificial replacement for a missing tooth or tooth root. It's typically made of titanium and surgically inserted into the jaw bone beneath the gum line. The procedure usually involves minimal discomfort. Over several months, the implant fuses with the bone, creating a stable foundation for attaching a new artificial tooth.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants offer several advantages: they look and function like natural teeth, provide a permanent solution for tooth loss, require only routine dental hygiene visits for maintenance, help prevent bone loss and further tooth loss, eliminate the need for removable dentures, and allow for targeted treatment of specific missing teeth without affecting adjacent healthy teeth. Reach out to Dental Designs today to get started!
