An invitation for your Feedback!Many of our patients have referred us to their friends and family after visiting us. We would highly value your comments on Dr. Peter S. Evans, MS, DDS, MAGD, Evans Dental Care at one or more of our social media websites.
At Evans Dental Care, we understand that the entire body needs to be considered as it relates to your dental care. It used to be all about �teeth and gums� � but not anymore! We now know that what happens in the mouth can profoundly affect and impact the entire body, positively or negatively!
Although the root canal procedure has initiated somewhat of a debate between holistic dentists and those who practice in a more traditional manner, the fact remains that there are indeed instances when the root canal can be treated to restore optimal oral health in a patient.
We only have a few seconds to make a first impression on others, which means that this important impression is largely based on appearance. Although it may be easy to overlook this fact, the truth is that our teeth are a large part of how we interact with others.
The goal of dentistry is to prevent the weakening of the natural tooth structure through ongoing preventative care measures. There are times, however, when the need arises for restorative care.
While dentistry was once a field dedicated only for the health of teeth and gums, we have come to a point in which dentistry now also addresses the emotional needs of the patient, such as the appearance of the smile.
When we approach the care of any patient, our focus is to act as conservatively as possible. Extracting teeth is not something that Dr. Evans performs without ample consideration to the impact such a treatment will have on the overall health of the body.
Although it is the goal of our office to help you maintain the health of your teeth and gums, there are circumstances that may lead to the loss of a tooth. At this point, the focus becomes replacement to restore full health to the mouth.
The loss of even one tooth is significant, as this will impact the overall health of the mouth. Bacteria finds extra protection against elimination when there are gaps between teeth, which increase the potential for plaque buildup, tooth decay, and gum disease.
