Root Canal Therapy in Fort Smith and Van Buren, AR



If you have a tooth that has become infected, it is important to treat the infection to keep you from losing the tooth as well as restore health to your smile. At New Smile Dental, we can use root canal therapy to treat your infected tooth and improve your oral health.

Root canal therapy is an important treatment because it addresses an infection inside of your tooth. When decay is allowed to breach the enamel of the tooth, it allows the pulp inside of the tooth to become infected. This is often a painful infection that can lead to tooth loss if left untreated for too long. Other symptoms include increased sensitivity to hot and cold food and drinks, gum swelling and abscesses of the gums. If we determine that your root canal is indeed infected, we can restore your tooth with root canal therapy.

For your treatment we’ll start by numbing the affected area to keep your comfortable. We’ll use a drill and additional tools to remove the infected inner pulp of your tooth. It will be replaced with a special material that will protect the sensitive root canal. We will top your tooth with a crown to complete your restoration.

If you’re suffering from a root canal infection, we can help restore the health of your smile with root canal therapy. This treatment will help to restore strength and function to your tooth, as well as help protect against further infection. The health of your smile is important so give us a call today to see how we can help.

At New Smile Dental, we focus on enhancing and restoring the beauty of your smile with help from the latest dental technology. Dr. Gilbert Lopez treats patients from Fort Smith and Van Buren, AR and surrounding areas. Call us today to schedule your next appointment.

Brighten Your Smile with Teeth Whitening from Dr. Lopez



Is your smile less than impressive? Are you unhappy with your stained and yellowed teeth? At New Smile Dental we can help improve the appearance of your smile with teeth whitening, a great cosmetic dentistry smile solution.

Your teeth can become stained or discolored for a variety of reasons, including smoking, wine and other alcohols, aging, excessive fluoridation and certain medications. We can treat these stains and restore the beauty of your smile with teeth whitening. Our professional teeth whitening solutions are stronger and more effective than any of the over the counter solutions you may have tried before.

We’ll take molds of your teeth and use those to create your custom whitening trays. You’ll fill the trays with professional bleaching gel and wear them as directed. After about two weeks you’ll achieve full results and have a dazzling smile. If you experience some sensitivity during your treatment don’t worry. This is normal and should go away once you finish treatment.

If you’re interested in brightening your smile, please give us a call to learn more. We would love to see if teeth whitening is the right solution for your smile. If you have stains that cannot be removed with teeth whitening, we also offer porcelain veneers and Lumineers to help improve the appearance of your smile.
