Oral Cancer - Are You at Risk?

viz-lite Did you know that one American dies every hour from oral cancer? And the death rate has remained virtually unchanged for 40 years? The good news is that there's a 90% cure rate if it's detected early.

We are very pleased to provide the most effective oral cancer screening available today. It's called the Vizilite™ system. It's used every time we examine a patient. First we rinse your mouth with a special solution. Then we perform the exam using the specially designed light. Any suspicious tissue is immediately and easily visible so we can treat it in the early stages. This could literally save your life!

At Risk of Losing Your Teeth Due to Gum Disease?

Laser Treatment Can Avoid Surgery

Dr. Mullins is licensed to practice Laser Periodontal Therapy™, a minimally invasive method of treating gum disease. LPT is the only laser-assisted procedure certified by the FDA for treatment of periodontitis or gum disease. That means you can have your gum disease treated successfully without scalpels or sutures.

Many of us have heard about or experienced the remarkable results from laser treatments for vision correction and other medical procedures. Now that same technology is revolutionizing dentistry.

With Laser Periodontal Therapy™, you'll be amazed that the healing and recovery is generally faster and more comfortable than traditional gum surgery. If you've been told you need gum surgery, but have been putting it off, let us show you how easy your treatment can be.

We are pleased to now offer the latest in dental technology: Laser Periodontal Therapy™ (LPT). If you have periodontal disease, this could literally change your life. There is no cutting or stitches and it is virtually pain free with little recovery time!

Comfortable Root Canals, Done in Our Office

Teeth with roots that have been damaged or infected used to require extraction, which can cause a lot of problems and should be a last resort. When dental decay reaches the nerve of the tooth (or the tooth has become infected), a simple filling will not be suitable. A root canal can save the tooth by removing the pulp chamber of a tooth and filling it with a filling material. When dentists started performing root canals, they were quite painful, and the root canal has received a reputation as something to be avoided. However, with the modern anesthetics and technologies available in our practice, root canals can be tolerable and, some say, even painless.
