Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How can we help you?

We are happy to answer questions about our services and procedures.

These are a selection of some common questions that patients have. If your question isn't answered here, please contact our office. It's important to us that our patients understand their dental care.

General

Yes! Our digital X-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays. They’re super quick, safe, and provide crystal-clear images so we can spot issues early. Even kids and expecting moms (with proper shielding) can have digital X-rays safely.

Yes! We love caring for families and kids of all ages. You can even book back-to-back appointments to make things easier. We make visits fun and positive for kids — plus, we have an adult treasure box for grown-ups who deserve a prize too!

We work with most major dental insurance plans and will help you get the most out of your benefits. Our team is happy to check your coverage and go over everything before treatment, so there are no surprises. We also offer flexible payment options for patients without insurance.

We usually recommend coming in every six months for a cleaning and checkup. These visits help keep your smile healthy and let us catch little issues before they turn into big ones—saving you time, stress, and money later on!
If you have gum disease, we may want to see you a bit more often (every 3–4 months) to keep your gums healthy and prevent things from flaring up again.

We want great dentistry to fit your budget. That’s why we accept CareCredit, Sunbit, and major credit cards. These options make it easy to pay for treatment over time with low or no interest — so you can smile now and pay later.

We truly treat every patient like family. You’ll feel it from the moment you walk in — our caring team, relaxed atmosphere, and personalized approach make dental visits surprisingly comfortable!

We also use the latest technology like lasers, PRF for natural healing, and digital imaging so your care is gentle, precise, and efficient.

X-rays are a dentist's most important diagnostic tool. Often, problems start inside your teeth or beneath the gum line. By the time the problem is visible to the naked eye, it can be painful and more difficult to treat. Using x-rays taken on a regular basis, we can catch problems early and treat them quickly and comfortably.

Veneers


When admiring the flawless smile of a movie star, it's likely that veneers played a role in creating that perfect look. Veneers are thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin that are carefully bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are commonly used to address various cosmetic concerns, such as improving tooth color, shape, length, or size. Whether you need a single veneer or multiple veneers, our skilled Henderson team can customize the treatment to align with your aesthetic goals. Experience the transformative power of veneers at The Henderson Dentist.

If your teeth are discolored, you have several options available to restore their brightness:

1. In office whitening: This is the most effective method for quickly brightening your smile. Typically completed in just two sessions at our office, in office whitening delivers immediate results. 

2. Take-home whitening trays: For a more convenient option, we offer custom take-home whitening trays tailored to your smile. This allows you to whiten your teeth in the comfort of your own home at your own pace. 

3. Smile makeovers: For more extensive discoloration or other esthetic concerns, our smile makeovers can include crowns or veneers. These treatments not only enhance the shape of your teeth but also improve their shade, giving you a complete transformation for a radiant smile. 

Schedule an in-person or virtual consult to discuss which option is best suited to your needs and goals. We will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan to achieve the bright, beautiful smile you desire. 

We use our dental laser to gently treat gum inflammation and sculpt gum tissue for a healthier, more balanced smile. The laser uses focused light energy to target only the affected areas — meaning less discomfort, minimal bleeding, and faster healing compared to traditional methods.

Patients love it because it’s quick, precise, and helps their gums heal beautifully with little to no downtime.

In its earliest stages, we can reverse gum disease by improving your hygiene routine and adding in an antimicrobial treatment. Once gum disease has progressed past a certain point, however, the disease is not reversible. We can still provide treatment that will stop the disease in its tracks and prevent further deterioration of your gum and bone tissue.

You probably see the words general dentist on local signs and online, but may wonder what that means.

Just like your primary care physician, your general dentist is your main point of contact for your oral health. General dentists provide most non-specialty services that patients of all ages need to stay healthy.

This includes preventive dentistry such as:

  • Dental exams
  • Cleanings
  • X-rays
  • Fluoride treatments
  • Dental sealants
  • Mouthguards for sports
  • Nightguards

General dentists also repair teeth that suffer from decay, fractures, or trauma. Restorative dentistry refers to:

  • Fillings
  • Bonding
  • Dental crowns

Teeth replacement is a big part of general dentistry and is designed to keep your smile looking good and to make sure you can eat a healthy diet.

  • Bridges
  • Partial dentures
  • Dentures

Since cosmetic dentistry is not a dental specialty, most general dentists are the ones who will be designing a beautiful smile and offering enhancements such as:

  • Teeth whitening 
  • Cosmetic bonding
  • Tooth-colored fillings and crowns
  • Porcelain veneers

If you have a dental question, need help or advice, your general or family dentist will be able to make treatment recommendations for you. If you require a trip to a specialist, general dentists usually have specialists in their professional network that they know and trust.

A fractured tooth is a tooth at risk. You may not even know a tooth is cracked or fractured, or you may feel pain or sensitivity when biting down or exposing the tooth to hot or cold temperatures. An endodontist specialist can diagnose and treat fractures in a tooth and damage to its inner pulp.

Treating fractured teeth is critical. With continuous pressure from chewing, the interior tissues of a tooth may be unable to heal, leading to irritation and even infection. These inner tissues, or pulp, include a tooth’s interior nerves, tissues, and blood vessels.

An endodontist specialist will treat a tooth fracture depending on its location and severity. A dental crown can usually protect teeth with small fractures above the gum line, and you can see your dentist for this type of restoration.

However, if the tooth has a crack below the gum line, you may need a root canal to treat the damaged pulp. Endodontists specialize in root canal treatment, preventing the fracture from spreading or even causing tooth loss. A dental crown completes the restoration.

If the tooth is severely damaged, an endodontist specialist may recommend endodontic surgery to save part of the tooth or an extraction. If the tooth needs extraction, your endodontist can discuss options for replacing the tooth, such as a dental implant.

A filling repairs a small cavity or chip, while a crown (or cap) covers and protects a tooth that’s cracked, broken, or has a large old filling. Think of a crown as armor for your tooth — it keeps it strong, beautiful, and functional for years to come.

Dental Implants

Yes, absolutely! If you already have dentures, we can often retrofit or replace them to attach securely to dental implants. Implant-supported dentures “snap” into place, giving you a snug, comfortable fit that won’t shift while you talk or eat.

This upgrade can make a huge difference in comfort, stability, and confidence. Dr. Wilson will evaluate your bone health and discuss whether implant-supported or All-on-X options are the best fit for you.

Caring for implant-supported dentures is simple! You’ll still want to brush twice a day to keep your gums and implants healthy, and gently clean around the attachments with a soft toothbrush or water flosser. If your dentures are removable, take them out daily to clean both the denture and your gums.

If you have a fixed (All-on-X) style restoration, you’ll clean it much like natural teeth. Regular dental visits are important so we can check the implants and keep everything in top shape. With good care, your implant-supported dentures can last for many years and continue to look and feel amazing.

If you’re missing one or more teeth, or if your denture feels loose, a dental implant might be the perfect solution. Implants look and function just like natural teeth — they restore your bite, your smile, and your confidence. We’ll take a 3D scan and help you decide what option is best for you.

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime! The implant itself (the titanium post) is designed to fuse permanently with your jawbone, creating a strong, secure foundation for your new tooth. The crown or bridge attached to it may need to be replaced over time due to normal wear, but the implant underneath is built to last.

Because Dr. Wilson uses digitally guided surgery and BioHorizons implants designed for long-term stability, your results are both precise and predictable. Combine that with good brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits, and your implant can stay healthy and strong for decades.

The timeline depends on your unique needs, but most patients can go from consultation to new smile in just a few months. In some cases, we can even place implants and attach a temporary set of teeth the same day—so you never go without a smile!

We start with a 3D scan and digital plan to make sure everything is precise and customized just for you. Healing typically takes a few months as the implants fuse securely with the bone, and then we place your final, beautiful new teeth. Dr. Wilson will walk you through every step and keep you comfortable the whole way.

Dr. Wilson has placed thousands of dental implants and has advanced training in both surgical and restorative implant dentistry. After earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree, she completed a General Practice Residency (GPR) focused on comprehensive dental care and implant placement.

She continues to expand her expertise through extensive continuing education courses and was a proud member of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI)—one of the world’s leading organizations for implant excellence.

At The Henderson Dentist, Dr. Wilson combines experience, precision, and compassion to make sure every patient receives beautiful, long-lasting, and natural-looking results.

Dental implants have several advantages over other tooth replacement options:

  • Dental implants appear the most life-like and natural.
  • The actual implant piece of the dental implant is made of titanium, a biocompatible metal.
  • Dental implants are the most secure and stable.
  • Dental implants prevent bone loss, keeping your jaw tissue healthy and preventing changes in the shape of your face.
  • With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.

At The Henderson Dentist, we offer several denture options to fit your needs, comfort, and budget — whether you’re replacing a few teeth or your entire smile.

  • Traditional Dentures: These are removable and rest on your gums. They’re a cost-effective option and can be made to look very natural, but they may move slightly while eating or speaking.

  • Implant-Supported Dentures: These snap securely onto a few dental implants for a stable, no-slip fit. They’re a great option if you want dentures that stay in place but can still be removed for cleaning.

  • All-on-X or Fixed Implant Dentures: These are full-arch restorations that attach permanently to implants — meaning you never have to take them out. They feel and function almost exactly like natural teeth.

Dr. Wilson will help you decide which option is best based on your bone health, lifestyle, and goals. No matter which type you choose, we’ll make sure your dentures fit comfortably, look beautiful, and restore your confidence when you smile.

PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin, and it’s an amazing way to help your body heal naturally. We take a small sample of your own blood, spin it in a special machine, and use the concentrated platelets to promote faster healing after extractions or implant surgery — no chemicals, no additives, just your body doing what it does best.

Most patients are surprised at how comfortable and easy implant recovery is! You may have a little soreness or swelling for a few days, but it’s usually mild and managed with over-the-counter pain relief. Because we use BioHorizons implants with Laser-Lok® technology and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) for healing, most people notice faster recovery and less inflammation.

You’ll want to eat soft foods for a short time and keep the area clean as it heals. We’ll see you for quick follow-up visits to make sure everything is healing perfectly—and before you know it, you’ll be enjoying your new smile!

At The Henderson Dentist, we proudly use BioHorizons dental implants, one of the most trusted and research-backed implant systems available. BioHorizons implants are made from high-quality titanium and designed with advanced technology that promotes faster healing and long-term stability.

These implants feature Laser-Lok® surface technology, which encourages your natural bone and gum tissue to attach securely to the implant. This helps create a stronger, healthier foundation and a more natural-looking result.

Every implant case is customized to your needs using 3D imaging and digitally guided surgery, allowing Dr. Wilson to place implants with incredible precision for beautiful, lasting results. Whether you’re replacing a single tooth or restoring your entire smile, our goal is to give you results that look, feel, and function just like your own teeth.

Traditional dentures rest on top of your gums and rely on suction or adhesive to stay in place. While they’re an affordable way to replace missing teeth, they can sometimes shift or feel less stable when eating or speaking.

All-on-X implants, on the other hand, use a small number of dental implants (usually 4–6 per arch) to permanently anchor a full set of teeth. They don’t come out, don’t move, and feel incredibly natural — allowing you to eat, smile, and speak with total confidence.

Dr. Wilson uses 3D imaging and digitally guided surgery to plan each case precisely, giving you a secure, long-lasting, and beautiful result that truly feels like your own teeth.

At The Henderson Dentist, your implant experience is completely customized from start to finish. Dr. Wilson has placed thousands of implants and uses the latest techniques and technology to ensure your comfort and long-term success.

We use BioHorizons implants with Laser-Lok® technology for exceptional bone and tissue integration, and we incorporate PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) to speed up healing naturally. Every case is planned using 3D imaging and digitally guided surgery, which allows Dr. Wilson to place implants with incredible precision and accuracy — resulting in less discomfort, faster healing, and beautiful long-lasting results.

Whether you need a single tooth replaced or a full-mouth restoration, our goal is to give you results that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth — all in a warm, caring environment where you’re treated like family.

Dental implants are the gold standard for teeth replacement, providing a long-term, reliable solution. However, if the bone in your jaw is degenerative or genetically thin, the dental implant may fail. An oral surgery specialist can perform bone grafting in the area so that the dental implant has a strong support.

Bone needs stimulation to grow, and if a tooth is missing, the body begins to reabsorb bone in the empty space. This process can result in facial hollowness, changes to your gum line, and even misalignment of other teeth.

One of the main benefits of dental implants is that it stimulates bone growth in the area of the missing tooth. In this process, called osseointegration, the post of the dental implant fuses with the jawbone, causing new bone growth around the post and better oral health.

If you don’t have enough bone in the area of a missing tooth, an oral surgery specialist can perform a bone graft using your own tissue or a biocompatible synthetic material. The bone graft will stimulate new bone cell growth and allow you to benefit from a dental implant.

Bone grafting is a routine procedure that requires local anesthesia and sometimes sedation, if needed. An oral surgery specialist can tell you if you’re a good candidate.

Dental Hygiene

We use our dental laser to gently treat gum inflammation and sculpt gum tissue for a healthier, more balanced smile. The laser uses focused light energy to target only the affected areas — meaning less discomfort, minimal bleeding, and faster healing compared to traditional methods.

Patients love it because it’s quick, precise, and helps their gums heal beautifully with little to no downtime.

If your gums bleed when you brush or floss, that’s actually a sign something isn’t right—healthy gums shouldn’t bleed. Most of the time, bleeding means you may have gingivitis, which is the earliest stage of gum disease.

The good news is gingivitis is completely treatable with regular cleanings, good home care, and sometimes a deeper cleaning called scaling and root planing. Unfortunately, if it’s left untreated, it can progress into periodontal (gum) disease, which can cause bone loss and permanent damage to your teeth and gums.

If you notice bleeding often, don’t ignore it—schedule a visit so we can help get your gums healthy again and prevent future problems.

Crowns and Bridges

A dental bridge is a very effective solution for filling the space left by a missing tooth. It is basically a single dental restoration that usually includes two dental crowns and a replacement tooth (pontic) that fills the empty space. The dental crowns are secured to adjacent teeth on either side of the empty space and provide support for the artificial tooth.

A filling repairs a small cavity or chip, while a crown (or cap) covers and protects a tooth that’s cracked, broken, or has a large old filling. Think of a crown as armor for your tooth — it keeps it strong, beautiful, and functional for years to come.

Dentures and Partials

Emergency Dentistry

Yes, we do! If you have a toothache, broken tooth, or swelling, call us right away. We set aside time every day for dental emergencies and will do our best to get you seen the same day — because we never want you to be in pain.

The goal of an emergency dental appointment is to address the immediate need, resolve your problem, and relieve your pain. If we believe further care is needed, we will schedule you a regular appointment to follow up and set up an appropriate treatment plan to prevent future problems.

Sedation Dentistry

Absolutely. We completely understand that the dentist can make some people nervous — and we’re here to change that. Our team is kind, patient, and trained to help you feel calm every step of the way. We use gentle numbing techniques, offer cozy comforts, and always move at your pace.

We also offer several options to make your visit even more comfortable — including nitrous oxide (laughing gas), prescription anti-anxiety medication, and, for those who prefer to be completely asleep, we partner with a licensed dental anesthesiologist for in-office sedation.

Your comfort plan is always customized to your needs. Come see us to talk about which option is right for you — we’ll make sure your experience is as easy and stress-free as possible.

Tooth Extractions

PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin, and it’s an amazing way to help your body heal naturally. We take a small sample of your own blood, spin it in a special machine, and use the concentrated platelets to promote faster healing after extractions or implant surgery — no chemicals, no additives, just your body doing what it does best.

BOTOX®/Xeomin®

Xeomin is a gentle muscle relaxant (similar to Botox) that we use to relieve jaw tension, clenching, and TMJ-related pain. It helps the overworked muscles relax so you can stop grinding and wake up without soreness or headaches. It’s quick, effective, and lasts about 3–4 months.
