General Dentistry

The American Dental Association estimates that 91 percent of Americans over age 20 had cavities at some point in life. It also found that 27 percent of adults over the age of 20 also have untreated caries or cavities.

Making sure your smile is cavity-free is just one small part of what your general dentist in Charlotte does for your oral health. Effective dental hygiene plays an extremely important role in general and preventive dental care as well!

Everyone wants themselves and their families to remain in optimal health throughout their entire lifetime. We go on special diets. We drink fancy juices. We workout. We do so much for ourselves and oftentimes don’t put the same emphasis on our oral health. It’s important to understand there’s a lot your mouth, teeth, and gums can tell you about what might be going on elsewhere in your body. It can go the other way too — issues in your mouth could be negatively affecting your overall health as well.

This is why seeing your general dentist in Charlotte every six months and taking care of your dental hygiene are essential for outstanding oral and overall health. While daily brushing and flossing are generally enough to keep your smile bacteria-free, without the added boost of proper dental hygiene, bacteria can set up shop and cause infections, decay, and gum disease.

We love seeing you and your smile at the office. We hope you’ll continue taking care of your teeth and gums so that they are:

  • Healthy
  • Comfortable
  • Free from decay or disease

If you have any questions about your general or preventive dentistry needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach to your general dentist in Charlotte. Dr. Naz and the team are always ready to listen and answer your questions.

Cosmetic Dentistry

If you’re searching for a cosmetic dentist in Charlotte, then you’re ready to take your smile to the next level. You’re ready for a transformation that can truly and positively impact your life.

When your smile doesn’t look it’s very best, there’s a good chance you don’t feel very confident. That’s because our teeth make us feel self-conscious, especially in today’s modern world of social media and digital everything. It’s hard to hide your smile from photos when pretty much everyone’s walking around with a camera in their pocket! Cosmetic dentistry has the power to change all that by addressing:

  • Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
  • Missing teeth
  • Discolorations and stains
  • Gaps and spaces
  • Crooked teeth and misalignment or crowding
  • Brightening and whitening your smile

Imagine smiling without hesitation or hiding. Imagine having teeth that function like they’re supposed to without pain or discomfort. Imagine yourself lighting up a room with your smile and happiness. That’s life after cosmetic dentistry. It’s time for you to stop imagining what treatment would be like and making it a reality with Dr. Naz and her team.

Now that you’ve found a cosmetic dentist in Charlotte, and you have the power to make your smile dreams come true, what are you waiting for? Talk to us about creating your custom treatment plan where we make all that cosmetic dentistry has to offer available to you — at a personalized pace with a price that’s right for every budget.

Benefits #1 – Live Pain-Free

Living with dental pain is something no person at any age should have to endure. You shouldn’t have to take medication every day or simply live with it. That ends with our comfortable, comprehensive restorative treatments. Bid farewell to your dental decay and pain. Dr. Naz can create a custom dental crown to prevent further damage and discomfort.

Benefit #2 – Built to Last

Our restorative dentistry solutions not only bring health back to your smile, but they’ll keep it strong and durable for years to come. With everything from dental crowns to dental implants, broken or missing teeth can be replaced with a restoration that’s custom, comfortable, and constant.

TMJ Therapy

Struggling with nagging jaw pain in Charlotte that never seems like it will go away? Are you constantly in and out of doctors’ offices looking for a reason or treatment for your recurring headaches or severe migraine pain? It could be your TMJ or temporomandibular joint. Take both of your hands and touch the area directly in front of your ears to say hello to your TMJ.

TMJ disorders affect millions of Americans, and can easily go undiagnosed. TMJ care is usually more common among females. We understand how painful and disruptive this kind of pain can be to your life. It’s hard to do the things you love when you’re in constant pain or having to take powerful prescriptions to make it go away.

TMJ can most definitely have negative effects on both your dental and overall health. How do you know if you have a TMJ-related issue? Sometimes it helps to look at some of the most common symptoms that we see when patients come to us with jaw pain in Charlotte. What we see the most in our patients are things like:

  • Inability to fully open their mouth making it tricky (and painful) to see the dentist regularly
  • Pain that radiates through their face, neck, and shoulders
  • Clicking or popping sound in the jaw joints when they try to eat or speak
  • Ringing in the ears, and teeth that are highly sensitive
  • Chronic migraine and headache pain

Even if you don’t have any of these specific symptoms, it’s still important to get TMJ care if you’re experiencing jaw pain in Charlotte.

Our TMJ care is unique and it depends on your individual needs. In fact, if you’re in really bad shape and need more extensive treatment or even surgery,  Dr. Naz might refer the case out. Getting rid of your pain and discomfort is a three-step process. Dr. Naz will:

  1. Start by making you a custom oral appliance
  2. Evaluate your improvement or watch for problems as time goes on
  3. Focus on realigning your bite and your jaw joints

If you’re fed up with living day in and day out with jaw pain in Charlotte, then it’s time you talked to Dr. Naz about your TMJ care options. There’s a solution for everyone!
