At Stag Dental, we go beyond traditional dental care to offer a range of specialty services designed to enhance both your oral health and overall well-being. Dr. Erik Burke, Dr. Tara Dohm, and our dedicated team utilize the latest advancements in dental technology and treatments to address a variety of specific dental concerns and conditions. Our commitment to comprehensive care means we provide not just preventative and corrective dental services, but also specialized treatments that cater to your unique needs.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is a critical procedure for saving a tooth that has been severely damaged by decay or infection. By removing the infected pulp, cleaning the inner chambers, and sealing the tooth, we can preserve your natural tooth, alleviate pain, and prevent the spread of infection. Stag Dental employs modern root canal techniques like laser bacterial removal therapy and sedation options to make your experience as effective, comfortable and pain-free as possible.
Laser Treatment
Laser dentistry represents a cutting-edge approach to dental care, offering precision treatments with less discomfort and quicker recovery times. Our laser treatment services can be used for a variety of procedures, including gum contouring, treating periodontal disease, removing oral lesions, lip & tongue tie treatment, TMJ treatment, and bacterial removal of root canal procedures. The precision of laser technology minimizes damage to surrounding tissues, promotes faster healing, and reduces the risk of infection, making it an excellent alternative to traditional surgical methods.
Allergan Botox
Botox, traditionally known for its cosmetic applications, has found a valuable place in dental medicine for treating conditions such as TMJ disorders, bruxism, and associated facial pain. At Stag Dental, we use Allergan Botox to provide relief from jaw tension, headaches, and other symptoms related to dental stress and muscular issues. Administered by Dr. Burke , Botox injections can offer therapeutic benefits and contribute to a more comfortable and relaxed facial state.
Night Guards/Bite Splints
Custom-fitted night guards and bite splints are vital for patients experiencing bruxism (teeth grinding) or TMJ disorders. These personalized oral appliances are designed to protect your teeth from the damaging effects of grinding and clenching, which can lead to premature wear, fractures, and pain. By creating a physical barrier, our night guards and bite splints also help alleviate jaw strain and prevent TMJ symptoms, ensuring a better quality of sleep and overall oral health.
Sleep Apnea Treatment
Sleep apnea is a serious condition characterized by repeated breathing interruptions during sleep, leading to daytime fatigue, cardiovascular issues, and other health problems. At Stag Dental, we offer sleep apnea treatment options, including custom-fitted oral appliances that help keep the airway open during sleep. These non-invasive treatments are an effective alternative to CPAP machines, or if one is traveling and doesn’t wish to bring along their CPAP machine. Sleep Appliances offer a more comfortable and convenient solution for many patients.
Herbst Advance
The Herbst appliance is a revolutionary treatment for patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea and snoring. Unlike traditional sleep apnea treatments, the Herbst Advance device is specifically designed to adjust the lower jaw position, enhancing airway openness during sleep. This non-invasive treatment can significantly improve sleep quality and reduce the health risks associated with sleep apnea, all without the need for cumbersome equipment.
