Oral surgeries offered at U Shine Dental include:
Dental Extractions
Do you need a tooth removed due to extensive decay, damage, or crowding? Our dentists will make the process as stress-free as possible, offering a complete assessment of the tooth before designing a customized dental extraction plan for you. Whether it's a simple extraction or surgical extraction, every tooth removal procedure at U Shine Dental is performed with your optimal health and comfort in mind.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Sometimes called the third molars, wisdom teeth will usually start causing problems in a patient's mid-to-late teenage years or in the early twenties. If the wisdom teeth are erupting, or beginning to erupt, they may cause pain or swelling in the very back of the mouth.
If you suspect it's time for you or your teen to have your wisdom teeth removed, your dentist will begin with a comprehensive exam, using the latest dental imaging technologies to determine if wisdom tooth extraction is right for you or your teen. At U Shine Dental, we offer laughing gas sedation for optimal comfort during your procedure.
Implant Dentistry
When it comes to replacing lost teeth, permanent dental implants provide long-lasting, natural-looking results. They use titanium posts implanted into the jawbone to create a foundation for crown restorations that recreate the look and feel of your natural teeth. Our implant dentists will help you determine the ideal implant system and placement for restoring your smile!
Root Canal Therapy
At U Shine Dental, we offer root canal treatment to remove areas of the inner portion of tooth that have become infected. When the tooth's pulp becomes infected, it can cause severe tooth pain and even impact your total-body health if left untreated. Gentle root canal therapy at our Alexandria dental office can help the tooth heal, restore, and become even stronger.
Our team works to detect when root canal therapy is needed as early as possible, before an infection has the chance to spread through the body. Your gentle root canal treatment will be sealed with a dental crown custom-shaded to blend with your natural smile!
