For most people, having their teeth cleaned is simple and painless. Yet, many still have misgivings about this basic and very important procedure. The prodding and poking, strange noises, and occasional jaw discomfort may cause a little apprehension, but knowing what will happen during the process can help ease your stress.
A root canal is a common, non-surgical dental procedure and can prevent the need for implants or bridges by saving a natural tooth that has become infected. At the center of the tooth is pulp, which is a soft collection of blood vessels and nerves. The pulp can become infected by deep decay, cracks or chips, or trauma to the tooth.
Fillings are a way to restore a tooth that has been damaged by decay or worn down from misuse such as tooth grinding. A filling will prevent further decay by preventing bacteria from entering and will restore your tooth back to its normal function. There are several types of materials used to fill teeth and we will suggest which best fits your needs based upon the extent of the repair, the area in your mouth where it is needed, and the cost.
A crown is a cover that is put over your tooth to restore it to its normal function and shape. Teeth are sometimes crowned to restore their function and sometimes to improve the way you look. You may need a crown if you have a cavity that is too large for a filling or a tooth that has been worn down or cracked or weakened.

I have been with Dr. Moffitt’s dental practice since 2004. He has helped me with a root canal procedure, dental implant, and now regular cleanings and dental exams to assure everything stays healthy. His staff is professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly. It’s a judgment free zone. You know you’re in good hands when you enter the office. Highly recommended.

If you're considering a new dentist, Dr. Moffitt and his staff does not disappoint! I genuinely look forward to seeing Dr. Moffitt and his staff at each visit. He's really cool, really funny, totally relatable, and he's good for at least one good belly laugh each visit. I will always go to Moffitt and I encourage you too as well!

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Moffitt and his amazing staff. I was referred by a coworker whose family has seen him for three generations. They make you feel so comfortable and you can tell that the entire staff loves giving you an exceptional experience. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a friendly dentist for life.
