General Dentistry
With our access to advanced technology and the personal attention you receive at our office, Forest Dental Cafe can provide you with stress-free and efficient general dentistry services.
Fillings
Brushing and flossing can go a long way in keeping your teeth healthy, but cavities can strike at any time. Dr. Kim will remove the cavity from your tooth comfortably and replace the space with a composite filling to solve this issue.
Composite fillings are natural white fillings that we can match to your tooth color. Because they look like real tooth material, the days of silver amalgam fillings everyone can see in your mouth are gone. Plus, composite fillings are more durable and last longer, making them a significant improvement upon the past.
Crowns and Bridges
If a filling can’t do the job, we will recommend either a crown or bridge for your situation. A crown acts as a protective cap over a damaged tooth, while a bridge is a false tooth with connectors on either side that attach to adjoining teeth.
Whichever solution is best, Dr. Kim will carefully select the material, shape, size, and color of crown or bridge for your needs and meticulously place it to restore your tooth’s shape and function. You will be back to having a full set of teeth in no time!
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal may sound like a nightmare, but at Forest Dental Cafe, we make the process painless and straightforward. A patient needs root canal therapy when a tooth’s cavity has spread to the pulp or inner material of the tooth. Because this type of cavity can be pretty painful, it’s a good idea to get it treated as soon as possible.
During a root canal, Dr. Kim will remove the infected pulp from your tooth using advanced technology for improved accuracy. That way, he only removes what is truly necessary and leaves your tooth feeling fresh and new.
Extraction
Sometimes it’s not possible to save a tooth, and it must come out. Tooth extraction may be necessary due to an accident, advanced tooth decay, wisdom tooth removal, or to make space for other teeth to grow and align properly.
We will make the extraction process comfortable for you with our painless numbing system, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. After extracting the tooth carefully, we can provide you with an implant or bridge to replace the missing tooth. Not only will your new tooth be pain-free, but it will also look great, too!
Whitening
Having a bright, white smile is something everyone aspires to have, yet our eating habits and sometimes even genetics can make this desire challenging to obtain. Thankfully, Forest Dental Cafe has the latest in whitening technology to help you get the smile you deserve.
As part of our cosmetic dentistry services, we can give you a full cosmetic consultation before and after your teeth whitening to see if you believe there is anything else you’d like to do to improve your smile. We are always happy to help increase your confidence and get you smiling more!
Clear Aligners
If you’re looking to have straighter teeth, Dr. Kim can assess your teeth, gums, and jaw and determine if clear aligners are a good option for you. When eligible, patients who use clear aligners can see their teeth become straighter in a matter of months.
And as the name implies, these aligners are hardly noticeable, making them a great alternative to metal braces and retainers. You can wear them all day with confidence and have your teeth on the straight and narrow in no time.
Children’s Dentistry
No one should be afraid of the dentist, especially children. We want to make their Frisco children’s dentistry experience fun and educational so that they’ll be asking when they can come to visit again. It’s also an excellent experience for parents as they can enjoy a coffee and some downtime in our dental cafe!
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a newer form of technology with advanced dental care for missing teeth in recent years. When a patient is missing one or multiple teeth, it may be possible to fit them with implants to act as their teeth. Our Frisco dental implants can last for decades with the same care you give your natural teeth with proper care.
As long as you have a healthy bone in your jawline, Dr. Kim can place a tiny screw in your missing tooth socket. This screw will act as the post for your implant, which will look and act just like a real tooth.
Dentures
For some patients, the best plan of action for missing teeth is dentures. However, dentures are not just a one-size-fits-all process. Dr. Kim will take the time to see if partial dentures, full dentures, or implant-supported dentures are best for you and get your input on what you prefer.
The days of messy denture creams and adhesives are mostly a thing of the past. At Forest Dental Cafe, we will utilize the newest forms of technology to ensure your dentures look, feel, and act like natural teeth without all the fuss.
Dental Hygiene
Even if your teeth are in great shape and you don’t need any other procedures, it’s important to come to our office for teeth cleanings twice a year. Dr. Kim will perform the cleanings himself and give each of your teeth the care and attention they deserve.
