Dental Care in a Relaxing Environment
Nitrous oxide sedation, also known as “laughing gas,” is commonly used to make treatment more comfortable. This sedation is inhaled through a mask that allows you to breathe in the medication, and induces a state of relaxation. Local anesthetic will be administered in conjunction with nitrous oxide to eliminate pain.

Defeat Gum Disease Painlessly
Gum Disease Treatment Bellevue
The main cause for tooth loss is not decay – it's periodontal (gum) disease! We are pleased to offer our patients a powerful weapon in the fight against gum disease. It's called ARESTIN™. It comes in powder form and contains very tiny microspheres that are not visible to the eye. These microspheres deliver a time-released antibiotic directly to the site of the infection (the spaces between the gums and teeth). ARESTIN kills the bacteria that cause gum disease. The best part is that it's all painless!

What is Wellness Dentistry?
Let's say you become ill and decide to go to your doctor for care. And let's say that you are treated and you recover. That's just great! But what if you went to your doctor when you were NOT ill and you learned how NOT to get sick? That would be even better! That's what we call "Wellness Care." And that's just what we do in our practice. We can certainly get your teeth and gums healthy and repair any damage just like any dental office can. But we go a step further and show you how to avoid dental problems before they become problems. We start with a very thorough examination. Most of our patients say they've never had such an extensive examination of their gums or teeth. We examine your bite and how your teeth come together. We look for oral cancer, gum disease, signs of wear on the teeth, and in short, any problem that you might encounter at a later date. We want to head off any problems and make your teeth and gums healthier so you will be spending less time in the dental chair!

Saving Hopeless Teeth
Dental Root Canal Treatment Bellevue
Teeth with roots that have been damaged or infected used to require extraction, which can cause a lot of problems and should be avoided whenever possible. The good news is that we are well experienced in advanced root canal therapy. A root canal is a procedure to fix a tooth by removing the pulp chamber of the tooth and filling it with a filling material. This is often necessary when dental decay reaches the nerve of the tooth (or the tooth has become infected), and a simple filling will not be suitable. In the not too distant past, root canals would have required the tooth to be extracted. 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 modern anesthetics and technology, the root canals we can perform in our practice are tolerable and sometimes even painless.
