Invisalign

You’ve wanted to cosmetically straighten your smile but you don’t want to commit to the appearance and lifestyle changes that are needed to accommodate braces or other traditional orthodontics. You want a more aesthetic tooth alignment, but you also want an option that is discreet, comfortable and flexible.  Invisalign may be the answer for you.  We provide Invisalign treatments to many of our patients here at Bensalem Dentistry
 
The clear, flexible plastic tooth aligners are designed to incrementally adjust the alignment of your teeth while remaining indistinguishable and comfortable to wear.  You can easily remove Invisalign for meals, cleaning and brushing and flossing. This treatment is advantageous for adults and teens that would prefer to avoid the appearance and habit modification needed during traditional orthodontic treatments.
 
If you’d like to correct cosmetic alignment issues and you think Invisalign may be for you, we welcome you to Bensalem Dentistry and look forward to addressing all of your Invisalign treatment questions and concerns.

Dental Hygiene

Proper dental hygiene is very important to us here at Bensalem Dentistry, which is why we encourage all of our patients to pay close attention to their oral health. Oral hygiene not only affects dental health, but the patient’s overall health as well.
 
With regular home care, our patients can have teeth that are free of debris and bacteria, better smelling breath, and healthier teeth overall. It helps them battle gum disease, infection, and prevents possible procedures as a result of tooth decay.
 
We recommend the following practices for dental hygiene and periodontal health:
  • Brush their teeth twice a day, for at least two minutes each time.
  • Floss their teeth at least once a day.
  • Use toothpaste and mouthwash that contains fluoride.
  • Eat a healthy diet with minimal snacks and sugar-filled choices.
  • Drink plenty of water and decreasing soda, coffee and wine.
  • Visit us twice a year for a check-up and professional cleaning
With these simple daily practices, patients stand to have a healthier mouth and better overall health. They are taking good care of their teeth in between visits, and seeing us regularly to assess the health of their mouth and provide more education for good dental hygiene.

Sedation Dentistry

We do our utmost to provide you with a comfortable, relaxing dental experience, from the moment you enter Dr. Michael Eisenbrock’s Bensalem Dentistry, through to the end of your visit. Even though our patients always feel welcome, we understand that some dental procedures can cause patients to feel uneasy or phobic. For these patients, as well as those patients who would like to complete multiple procedures in a single visit, we provide complete sedation dentistry services.
 
We offer nitrous oxide sedation, which you are likely familiar with as laughing gas. Contrary to popular belief, N2O is not used to put you to sleep. You will be able to hear and respond to any directives or requests your dentist may have. N2O works very rapidly, reaching the brain within 20 seconds. This method allows you to remain conscious and communicative, however you will experience your procedure as nothing more than a pleasant and relaxing dream. You’ll experience no pain, apprehension or unpleasant sensations for the duration of your visit.
 
Sedation dentistry is safe and effective for many of our patients.  If you’d like to learn how it can benefit you during your next procedure at Bensalem Dentistry please call us directly at 215-638-9952 or visitwww.bensalemdentsitry.com
