Understanding Each Stage

Click any milestone to see what it means, what we look for, and how Today’s Dental approaches it differently from the other guys.

Urgent pain, swelling, knocked-out or broken teeth.

Patients here often feel: scared, exhausted, embarrassed, in pain, or in crisis.

What We Look For

  • Exudate (pus) with or without swelling
  • Extreme pain — pulpitis
  • Extreme swelling — infection (abscess)
  • Evulsed tooth — knocked out
  • Esthetic emergency — broken or fractured tooth

Today’s Dental Solutions

  • Extraction or Endodontics (Root Canal)
  • Excise / Incise and Drain
  • Tooth re-implanting and stabilization
  • Same-Day Crown or Composite for fractures
  • Emergency antibiotic prescribed when needed — call the office

If You Don’t Get This Addressed

  • Swelling: Swelling often signals an infection that can spread through your body, leading to a bone infection (osteomyelitis) or sepsis, and it can cause permanent numbness.
  • Pain: Your pain can become more severe and keep getting worse.
  • Sharp tooth causing a sore: A sharp edge can cut your tongue or cheek and cause painful mouth ulcers (canker sores).

The Today’s Dental Way: Call the office and reach a doctor — we will help today. Commonly, extractions and root canals are done in-house, but sometimes a referral is necessary. Knocked-out tooth? We try to save it. Broken tooth? We get you in expediently, not 2 weeks.

Gum disease, deep decay, dental anxiety, systemic health connections.

Patients here often feel: dread, phobia, uncertainty, or overwhelmed by what they might find out.

What We Look For

  • Deep Decay — not yet into the nerve
  • Decay to the nerve — painful (pulpitis)
  • Diseased Gums — Periodontitis (bleeding, infected)
  • Diseased Gums — Gingivitis (inflamed)
  • Dental Anxiety, phobia, or fear
  • Diabetes — uncontrolled, affecting oral health
  • Discomfort in jaw / TMJ
  • Dysfunction with Dentures or Partials
  • Due for checkup — more than 6–12 months since last cleaning
  • Discolored patches — red or white areas lasting longer than two weeks

Today’s Dental Solutions

  • Dentin Liner / Pulp Cap (reduces root canal risk)
  • Deep Cleaning — Scaling and Root Planing
  • Debridement Scaling and polishing
  • Comprehensive Exam + Oral Cancer Screening + 3D CBCT imaging
  • 3 Levels of Sedation: Nitrous Oxide, Oral Sedation, IV Sedation
  • Diabetes — improved prognosis with deep cleaning
  • 3D-printed custom splint for TMJ/jaw discomfort (rapid turnaround)
  • Dental Implants for dysfunctional or loose dentures

If You Don’t Get This Addressed

  • Overdue for a cleaning: Skipping cleanings can lead to bad breath, tartar buildup, and inflamed, bleeding gums. Active gum (periodontal) disease is linked to a higher risk of stroke, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, diabetes, and low birthweight babies.
  • Bad taste: A bad taste can be a sign of infection, and it often comes with bad breath.
  • Pus from the gums: Pus means there is an infection somewhere. It can spread to nearby areas and cause bone loss and loose teeth.
  • Bleeding gums: Bleeding gums are a sign of gum inflammation, which is linked to a higher risk of stroke, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, diabetes, and low birthweight babies.
  • Dental anxiety: You may be avoiding critical dental issues that will get worse with time.
  • Red or white patches: While most patches like these are harmless, some can be a sign of a condition that’s important to catch early — which is exactly why anything lasting longer than two weeks deserves a closer look.

The Today’s Dental Way: Every comprehensive exam includes an oral cancer screening, digital x-rays, optionally CBCT 3D imaging, and 3D wellness scans. Three levels of sedation on your terms.

Repairing, restoring, and protecting your teeth.

Patients here often feel: concerned, uneasy, regretful, or anxious about the appointment.

What We Look For

  • Cavities — Caries (active decay)
  • Cracked or broken teeth
  • Calculus — Tartar buildup
  • Catching food in areas — Food Traps

Today’s Dental Solutions

  • Composite Fillings — tooth-colored, mercury-free, with anti-sensitivity liner
  • Same-Day Ceramic Crowns — full zirconia, start to finish in one visit
  • Ultrasonic Cleaning by Hygienist or Dentist, while you watch TV
  • Composite Fillings with a contact-forming ring system for natural tight contacts (no more food traps)

If You Don’t Get This Addressed

  • Broken teeth, fillings, or decay: Broken or decayed teeth can fracture further and cause tooth pain, sensitivity, and pain when you bite.
  • Food collecting between teeth: Food that collects between your teeth can cause cavities, bad breath, gum (periodontal) disease, and pain when you bite.

The Today’s Dental Way: Mercury-free composite fillings with an anti-sensitivity liner. Typically we can do same-day ceramic crowns — no temporary, no second visit. Ultrasonic cleaning while you watch TV on the ceiling. A contact-forming ring system for anatomically correct contacts that eliminate food traps.

Missing teeth, grinding, bite imbalance, restoring full function.

Patients here often feel: hopeful, brave, cautiously optimistic — ready to invest in themselves.

What We Look For

  • Bite is in crossbite
  • Bite pressures are off — uneven wear patterns
  • Bruxism — Grinding / clenching / TMJ imbalance
  • Building back missing teeth — bridges, implants, partials, dentures
  • Brown, yellow, or stained teeth

Today’s Dental Solutions

  • Digital Bite Occlusalgram (3D scan) — maps exactly where bite pressure is off
  • Clear Aligners — to correct a crossbite and rebalance how your teeth meet
  • Bite Equilibration — precise adjustments based on bite data
  • 3D-Printed Nightguard / Grind Splint — digital scan, rapid turnaround
  • Bridge-work, Implants, Partials, Dentures
  • Whitening for Life — free ongoing whitening for life as a patient

If You Don’t Get This Addressed

  • Teeth hitting first or too high: A tooth that hits first can cause pain when you bite, throw your bite out of balance, and raise the risk of fractures and early wear.
  • Missing teeth: Missing teeth let nearby teeth tip into the gap and the opposing tooth drift into the space (supraeruption), which can make eating difficult.
  • Denture that hurts: A denture that hurts can cause mouth sores and fungal infections, and it weakens your chewing.
  • Denture that moves or falls out: A loose denture weakens your chewing, limits the foods you can eat, and can be embarrassing if it falls out while you talk or eat.
  • Clenching, grinding, or jaw popping: Clenching, grinding, or a popping jaw can lead to TMJ (jaw joint) pain, pain when chewing, sore or sensitive teeth, and trouble sleeping.

The Today’s Dental Way: Digital 3D bite scan shows exactly where pressure is off before we touch anything. 3D-printed nightguard ready fast with digital impressions — no goopy trays. Full zirconia, metal-free crowns and bridges. Whitening for Life — free, forever, as long as you’re a patient.

Smile confidence, airway health, sleep, and alignment goals.

Patients here feel: assured, confident, accomplished — ready to invest in the smile they’ve always wanted.

What We Look For

  • Alignment issues — crowding, spacing, crooked teeth
  • Airway and sleeping disorders — snoring, sleep apnea
  • Aesthetic improvement — whitening, veneers, shape, symmetry
  • Asymmetry — facial or smile symmetry concerns
  • Advocate — always in your corner for life

Today’s Dental Solutions

  • Clear Aligners — digital 3D scan impressions, no goopy trays
  • Airway Analysis + Home Sleep Study Kit (sleep in your own bed)
  • Custom CPAP Alternative — comfortable oral appliance
  • Veneers — custom shade ceramist work by a local artisan
  • Bonding, Whitening, Laser Gum Recontouring
  • Long-Term Smile Advocacy — your team for life

If You Don’t Get This Addressed

  • Unhappy with your smile: Being unhappy with your smile can lower your confidence and lead you to hide it.
  • Snoring or sleep apnea: Untreated snoring or sleep apnea can cause daytime sleepiness, a risk of falling asleep while driving, insomnia, irritability, headaches, high blood pressure, lower oxygen levels, and a shorter lifespan.
  • Misaligned or crowded teeth: Misaligned teeth trap food and spread bite pressure unevenly, raising the risk of tooth fractures, gum (periodontal) disease, and early tooth wear.

The Today’s Dental Way: Clear aligners with digital 3D scans — no goopy impressions, and you see your result before we start. Take-home sleep study kit in your own bed (not a hospital). Custom shade ceramic work by a local ceramist for natural-looking veneers. Laser gum recontouring for precision shaping. We are your dental advocates, not just your dentists.
