Dental Fillings
A filling repairs a tooth damaged by a cavity. We use tooth-colored material that blends in with your smile. Catching a cavity early usually means a smaller, simpler filling.
Same-Day Crowns
A crown is a cap that covers and protects a tooth that is cracked, badly worn or has a large filling. We design and make crowns right here in the office, so in most cases you get your crown the same day, with no temporary and no second visit.
A crown can:
• Protect a cracked or weak tooth
• Restore a tooth after a root canal
• Improve the look of a worn or discolored tooth
Tooth Extractions
When a tooth is too damaged or infected to save, removing it can stop the pain and protect the teeth around it. Dr. Reynolds explains your options first, including how to replace the tooth if you'd like. Most extractions are done at the same visit, so you can leave out of pain.
Root Canals
A root canal removes the infected or damaged nerve inside a tooth, relieves the pain and saves the tooth so it doesn't have to be pulled. Dr. Reynolds does root canals right here in the office using local anesthetic. Most teeth need a crown afterward, and we can usually make it the same day.
Dental Implants
A dental implant replaces a missing tooth from the root up. It looks, feels and works like a natural tooth and doesn't affect the teeth next to it. Implants can also hold a denture firmly in place so it doesn't slip when you eat or talk.
Dentures and Partials
Missing teeth can make it hard to eat and smile. We make full dentures, partials and snap-in dentures held by implants, and we can often give you your dentures the same day your teeth are removed. Relines are done right here in the office.
Exams and Cleanings
Regular checkups and cleanings are the best way to keep your teeth for life. At each visit we clean your teeth and Dr. Reynolds checks for problems early, when they're smaller and easier to fix. We see kids and adults, and most dental plans cover checkups and cleanings.
Invisalign
Invisalign straightens teeth with clear, removable aligners instead of metal braces. They're nearly invisible, you take them out to eat and brush, and you come in for a quick check every 8 to 12 weeks. We offer Invisalign for teens and adults.
Insurance and payment
We accept most major dental insurance, including Delta Dental, Blue Cross Blue Shield, MetLife, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Humana and Cigna, plus most Medicare dental plans. We'll tell you your cost before we start. No insurance? We offer third-party financing with monthly payments.
Have KanCare or Sunflower? We're not in network with KanCare plans, including Sunflower, so your plan will not pay anything toward care at our office. You're still welcome here as a self-pay patient, and we'll tell you the cost before we start. Third-party financing with monthly payments is available.
