Emergency Dental Services
Accidents and emergencies happen. West Portal Dental Care will be there for you and your family if you have an unexpected dental issue that requires urgent attention, and we do our best to see patients with urgent concerns on a same day basis. We also welcome new patients with emergencies and hope to provide relief to those suffering from lapses in dental care. Patients of record with our practice also receive 24/7 on call coverage from our team if you require urgent care outside of normal business hours.
Extractions
Despite the best intentions, teeth sometimes need to be removed. Regardless of the situation, this minor surgical procedure can be brought together in a way that considers your short and long-term concerns. From anxiety control to planning for tooth replacement, we'll factor in every aspect of your case.
Oral Surgery
Minor surgical procedures sometimes help treat problems in your mouth. Defects in the bone or compromised supporting gum tissue may sometimes undergo repair with precise surgical techniques. And quick biopsy techniques can help us learn what's behind changes in the lining of your mouth.
Root Canals
While many patients are concerned about root canals, modern techniques often make this procedure as quick and simple as any other procedure. Infected teeth in danger of removal can be disinfected and filled with a sealer, leaving a safe solution for problematic situations.
Bone Grafting
The bone around your teeth is highly specialized and doesn't regenerate when it's lost. Your teeth rely on this bony foundation to remain stable and functional, and even small defects can compromise your ability to maintain a tooth. Sometimes we can repair these defects by adding bone grafting materials.
