Gentle Cleanings For a Brighter Smile

Genesis Dental is proud to be one of the first dental practices to offer guided biofilm therapy in Cary, NC, using the AirFlow Prophy Master system. Dental biofilm therapy takes dental cleanings to a new level by allowing us to clean patients’ teeth without sharp hand instruments. During the cleaning, a warm stream of water is applied, removing the dental biofilm above and below the gum line to more efficiently clear away food particles, dental plaque, and stains for an immediately brighter smile.

Renew Your Oral Health With Tooth Extractions

Tooth extraction is typically a very fast process.
With the use of anesthesia, tooth extractions are a fast and comfortable process. You’ll feel at ease while we do what we do best, so you can focus on what matters most—recovery. During the recovery process, a blood clot will form on the extraction site and initiate the healing process. It’s important not to disturb this clot with hard foods or straws, and you’ll want to keep an icepack handy to mitigate swelling. You’ll also need to rinse your mouth with warm salt water regularly to keep the extraction area clean. This process typically takes several weeks.

Heal Your Smile With Root Canal Therapy

Root canal treatments clean out the area inside a tooth—the “pulp” that gives the tooth feeling—to prevent further damage or infection. Root canals consist of digital X-rays, an exam, and the procedure. You’ll be thoroughly numbed so that your dentist can remove all of the decay from the outside of the tooth. Your dentist will then clean the canal with antimicrobial liquid and cleaning instruments. Finally, a medicated filling is placed in the roots to seal the canal. A dental crown is then placed over the structure to prevent future infection or damage.
