Cheek Dental Delivers Service with a Smile

Posted on October 13, 2021 by Cristi Cheek.

Today, she has exceeded those childhood dreams with a thriving practice with a family feel and a patient base that places complete trust in Cheek Dental.

Broken front tooth…good as new in 90 minutes or less!

Posted on June 1, 2021 by Cristi Cheek.

After practicing dentistry for 20 years, I love a dental challenge! One of the hardest things to do esthetically as a dentist is to recreate a front tooth so that it exactly matches the surrounding teeth. Though I enjoy doing full mouth veneers and implants, some of my most rewarding experiences as a dentist have been artistically recreating a single front tooth. Teeth have unique characteristics, and trying to duplicate those can be quite difficult. But 6 years ago, our practice invested in a new CAD/CAM technology and a set of custom stains and ceramics that we can use to create perfectly matching dental restorations in just a few minutes.

A Better Smile

Posted on May 19, 2021 by Cristi Cheek.

Right or wrong we often make assumptions about people based on how they look.  A confident, attractive smile plays an important role in a person’s image.  When you look good, you feel good, and if you’re pleased with your smile, you’re more likely to wear it!  If the real you is hiding behind an unattractive smile, you may want to consider some cosmetic options.  Cosmetic dentistry refers to a host of dental treatments designed to enhance the smile and correct chipped, cracked, discolored, and unevenly spaced teeth.  There are many cosmetic options available today including whitening, veneers and all-ceramic crowns, bonding, orthodontic treatment (braces or Invisalign), and tooth-colored fillings and inlays.

Look Back and Love Your Smile

Posted on November 19, 2020 by Kristina Chandler.

The holiday season is a wonderful time to gather with family and friends and show gratitude for the year’s blessings. If your family is like mine, these family gatherings usually involve taking pictures of everyone and all the fun being had.  While it is fun to look back at past photos and reminisce, no one wants to see themselves in pictures and wish their smile were better. Tooth bleaching is one simple way you might be able to improve your smile for those holiday photos. [Read more…]

Why Dental Check-ups are Important During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Posted on September 15, 2020 by Cristi Cheek.

As we all do our best to prevent exposing ourselves to the coronavirus by isolating at home or by protecting ourselves with masks, hand sanitizer, and maintaining six foot distances as we venture out, we also need to be mindful of keeping our bodies healthy so that our immune system can be ready in case it is confronted with this virus. Did you know that there is a direct link between your oral wellness and your overall health?  We have all heard that people with certain risk factors like obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular problems are more likely to have complications if they contract COVID-19. Maintaining good oral hygiene and ensuring that we have regular dental examinations and cleanings is important in helping to ensure that our immune system is functioning at full capacity and is not already overwhelmed fighting off oral bacteria when it is confronted with coronavirus particles.

How COVID-19 may change your visit to the dentist

Posted on May 26, 2020 by Cristi Cheek.

Never in our lifetime have we experienced such a worldwide health crisis as we are currently. Protecting the health of ourselves, our families, and our community members has become a major group effort! Wearing masks, frequent hand washing, and sanitizer use is now the norm for everyone. Infection control has always been a top priority for us at Cheek Dental, but COVID-19 has certainly put our procedures to the test! [Read more…]

Sensitive Teeth

Posted on April 23, 2020 by Kristina Chandler.

Does a bite of cold ice cream or a sip of hot coffee sometimes hurt your teeth? If so, you are not alone. Sensitive teeth is a common problem we see among our patients. The great news is that sensitive teeth can be treated; however, the type of treatment depends on what is causing the sensitivity. [Read more…]

Do You Take My Insurance

Posted on March 24, 2020 by Cristi Cheek.

This is a question we are often asked in our dental practice, but the answer to that is a little complicated. When deciding on a dentist for yourself and your family, you want to be sure you are considering a multitude of factors including insurance, but insurance certainly should not be the #1 consideration.

Benefits of Invisalign

Posted on November 30, 2019 by Kristina Chandler.

Three vertical nose-to-neck photos of a woman smiling and wearing red lipstick. In photo 1, she is holding aligners near her mouth. In photo 2, she is putting Invisalign aligners on her upper teeth. In photo 3, she is smiling and the aligners are on.

Did you know that straight teeth are healthier teeth?  Invisalign clear aligner therapy, a popular orthodontic alternative to traditional braces, uses aligners to move teeth into their proper position gradually and gently without the use of unsightly brackets and wires as are necessary with conventional dental braces. But many people think that the reason for doing Invisalign is simply related to vanity – wanting a more attractive smile without having the metal “grill” from traditional braces.  While that is certainly one of the benefits of straightening teeth with Invisalign, there are some big health-related benefits as well.
