Dental Examination
If you want your child to form a tremendous lifelong habit for oral hygiene, it's best to start seeing a children's dentist in Altus at a young age. Tamarack Dental Associates recommends your infant come in for their very first dental exam once their first baby tooth makes its appearance. During this first exam, the pediatric dentist near you can check for certain risk factors and give you some recommendations on how to help with potential dental problems, including diet suggestions.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening

Teeth Cleaning
Routine dental cleanings (prophylaxis) and exams are one of the most essential steps in maintaining your teeth and gums' overall health and hygiene. In addition to exams and cleanings (prophylaxis), X-rays are also very important to reveal bone loss, abscesses, or cysts, cancerous or noncancerous tumors, tooth decay and problems below the gum line.
Fluoride Treatment
One of the best treatments you can have is prevention. That's why Tamarack Dental Associates can offer your child dental sealants on their molars and premolars. These teeth tend to have deep crevices, and sealants can help stop cavities in their tracks. Fluoride treatments are also a recommendation that can help your child have strong and healthy teeth. We can even help if your child is still sucking their thumb or using a pacifier.
Dental Sealants

Fillings
Veneers
If your teeth are chipped, misshapen or gapped, veneers can be applied to make them look beautiful and fix imperfections. When it comes to veneers, patients typically have two choices – porcelain veneers or composite veneers. Veneers improve your appearance and protect teeth from damage.
Crowns
If you're experiencing severe damage or decay, a crown may be required to ensure the tooth is protected. A dental crown covers your tooth to protect it from damage, decay and trauma. Crowns are placed directly over the affected tooth, protecting it from the trauma caused by chewing and other activities.
Bridges
Dental bridges are incredibly beneficial for patients who would like to restore any missing teeth. They aid in chewing and speaking with a bridge correctly and preventing the remaining teeth from shifting. They work to bridge across a gap in the mouth where one or more teeth are missing. It uses the neighboring teeth as anchors, also known as abutments, to support the dental prosthetic, called the pontic.

Root Canal Treatment
Suppose you're experiencing pain, extreme temperature sensitivity and discomfort when you chew. Some patients also report swollen lymph nodes and a pus pocket's appearance on the gums near the affected tooth. If this sounds familiar, you might need a root canal. Keep in mind, however, that not every patient will experience symptoms.

Dentures
If you have not experienced complete tooth loss, a partial denture may be the right option to restore your smile. Both fixed and removable partials are available at Tamarack Dental Associates. Partial dentures replace one or more teeth while complete dentures replace all your teeth. Tamarack Dental Associates's dentures are almost identical to natural teeth. Let us help you create a radiant smile.

Dental Implants
After dental implant surgery, it takes some time for the implant to integrate with the bone and tissue. Do not touch the wound, don’t rinse, spit, or touch your mouth within 24 hours after surgery. Take antibiotics as prescribed and use a gauze for bleeding. For pain, Tylenol, Aleve, or ibuprofen can be used. Eat soft foods and stay hydrated.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions
Our goal at Tamarack Dental Associates is to preserve and protect the smiles of our patients. Although a dental extraction should always be a last resort, there are situations where it is the best treatment option. But, losing a tooth does come with many disadvantages, such as difficulty chewing and speaking. The most crucial impact is the appearance of your smile.

Invisalign Orthodontics
Bite problems and alignment issues are documented and then corrected as soon as it's possible. This will help decrease treatment times. You can look into traditional braces for your child or Invisalign. There are also other orthodontic devices available that can help make your child's smile as perfect.
Braces
Invisalign - Invisalign is an excellent choice for patients who are looking for quick and straightforward treatment. Invisalign is more comfortable, offers faster results, creates good visual appeal and makes eating simpler. This treatment option works just the same as traditional braces.
