The respected dentists at Creekwood Dental Arts will attend the Texas Dental Association (TDA) Annual Meeting in San Antonio, May 6 through May 8 to stay at the forefront of the latest technologies, including gum disease treatment and laser dentistry. Dr. Donna Miller, Dr. Austin Green and Dr. Michelle Hinds are members of many organized dentistry associations and attend key meetings that ultimately benefit their patients. They provide leading dental care, including gum disease treatment and dental implants at their state-of-the-art practice located in Waco, TX.
“Continuing education opportunities at the TDA meeting are essential to delivering the most optimal care to our patients, and the meeting also provides the opportunity to influence and stay apprised of important legislative issues that impact dentists and patients in Texas and nationwide,” said Dr. Miller.
The TDA Meeting is the premier event for dental professionals in Texas, providing an unparalleled opportunity for dentists and staff to hone professional skills, discover information on cutting-edge topics and network with peers. Dr. Miller serves on the TDA House of Delegates, the legislative and supreme governing body of the TDA. This important voting meeting will convene as the first order of business on May 6, prior to the conference opening to all registrants.
The skilled dentists at Creekwood Dental Arts already offer the latest treatment advancements in Waco, TX, including laser dentistry and state-of-the-art dental implants. They have been using the Waterlase® laser with great success to treat periodontal disease (gum disease) without a drill or scalpel. The laser beam is small and accurate which enables Drs. Miller, Green and Hinds to safely treat tissue without injuring the surrounding area. The Waterlase laser gently removes unhealthy debris, kills bacteria in periodontal pockets and promotes regeneration of healthy gum. In addition to gum disease treatment, Dr. Miller and her team leverage laser dentistry for cavity and implant preparation and to reduce discomfort associated with TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders and canker sores.
Anxiety about undergoing traditional procedures such as osseous surgery and scaling and root planing prevents many patients from getting treatment until it is too late and they have lost teeth. “Laser treatment offers faster recovery and improved patient acceptance, making it a great option for patients with advanced gum disease or dental anxiety,” said Dr. Miller.
A recent report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found an estimated 47.2 percent adults aged 30 years and older have some form of gum disease. Untreated periodontal disease impacts more than a patient’s smile. In addition to tooth loss, studies show it increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, dementia, some types of cancer and pregnancy complications. Symptoms of gum disease include bleeding or swollen gums, gum infection, chronic bad breath and receding gums.
