Toothaches

At Healthy Smiles Family Dental, we advise our patients who are experiencing a toothache to visit us for a consultation straightaway. Some causes of toothaches include tooth decay, infected gums, teeth grinding, and a tooth fracture. More often than not you can prevent toothaches by practicing good oral hygiene. Our patients that grind their teeth at night are encouraged to get a mouth guard to prevent damage to their teeth and jaws.


If you are experiencing sharp or throbbing pain when you eat for more than two days, you should see one of our doctors for further examination. Any swelling around a tooth could be a sign of a more serious issue that needs to be fixed.


Treatment for toothaches is usually a filling for a decay-related cavity. In more serious cases where you have an infected tooth, extraction may be necessary, but many teeth can be saved by root canal therapy.


For any questions about toothaches, give us a call. To learn about our services provided at our practice, visit www.myfamilydentistsalem.com for more information. To schedule an appointment with one of our doctors at Healthy Smiles Family Dental in Salem, OR, call 503-385-1185.

Benefits of Teeth Whitening

Teeth become discolored by the foods we eat, the beverages we consume, and from lifestyle factors such as smoking, or taking certain medications. Discoloration is a natural part of life but when a patient desires a whiter smile, teeth whitening or bleaching can improve the color of teeth by several shades. At Healthy Smiles Family Dental, Dr. Na Xu gives patients the option to whiten in-office, or in the comfort of his or her own home. Teeth bleaching is one of the most common dental procedures that is performed across the country. Once the teeth become brighter, a person will feel a boost in his or her self-esteem and may desire to smile more than ever before. After scheduling a consultation to decide if whitening is right for you, Dr. Xu will either recommend whitening at home, with custom trays that will be created for you in the office, or laser whitening. If you have questions or concerns regarding teeth whitening or bleaching, please give us a call. To learn about services provid

Dental Implants

For many years, options to restore missing teeth were limited. Fortunately today, these options have expanded into dentures, bridges, and dental implants. At Healthy Smiles Family Dental, our doctors utilize dental implants to restore a patient’s shape of the face and improve their self-esteem all while restoring the health of their mouth. Dental implants, also known as replacement tooth roots, provide a strong foundation for permanent or removable dentures that are designed to match the color of your natural teeth. Dental implants are a successful way to improve your appearance, improve speech, and make it easier to chew. Unlike teeth that slide, dental implants stay in place and can last up to 10 years with proper oral care. If you are missing teeth and would like to explore your restoration options, we can help. If you have questions or concerns regarding dental implants, please give us a call. To learn about services provided at our practice, visit www.myfamilydentistsalem.com for
