\"Dr.<\/a>It\u2019s unfortunate, but some dental practices will push patients to receive multiple treatments, even if they don\u2019t necessarily need them. As a result, they end up getting cosmetic treatments they didn\u2019t want. They may receive dental crowns when all they truly needed was a simple filling. This only costs the patient more money and time in the dental chair, even when their oral health was fine to begin with. <\/span><\/p>\n

When you visit us, your <\/span>dental office in Lincoln<\/span><\/a>, you\u2019ll quickly learn that \u201cwe treat you like family\u201d \u00a0is our philosophy. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Why is Dentistry with Integrity Important?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Dentistry with integrity, also known as conservative dentistry, is the practice of gathering as much information about a patient as possible through an exam, then treating only the problems that appear. It\u2019s about getting their oral health back to a stable condition, while at the same time, doing the least amount of dentistry possible. For example, if a patient only needs a cleaning and a filling, then that\u2019s what they\u2019ll receive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, if a patient requests cosmetic treatments to improve their smile\u2019s appearance, we\u2019re more than happy to discuss their options and determine whether porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, or Invisalign are a viable solution. Furthermore, if they have other functional desires, such as replacing teeth, we can offer dental implants or dentures as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Do We Practice with Integrity?<\/span><\/h2>\n

According to your Lincoln dentist, there is a widespread issue of overtreatment from dentists across the country. Many will simply drill and fill to \u201cfix\u201d problems whenever they see fit and not even bother to help patients address what actually caused their poor oral health in the first place. We understand that taking preventive measures is the key to avoiding future oral health problems.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, many dental treatments can easily damage teeth in the process, so we only perform them when absolutely necessary. Silver fillings are actually more likely to wedge teeth apart over time, which is why we use tooth-colored fillings. These are stronger and last longer than traditional amalgam, while minimizing damage over time.<\/span><\/p>\n

When You Visit, You\u2019re Treated Like Family<\/span><\/h2>\n

Whether we\u2019re meeting you for the first time or you\u2019ve been visiting for years, we treat you the same way we\u2019d treat a family member coming in for dental care. That means we wouldn\u2019t recommend a treatment for you if we knew you didn\u2019t need it. If our parent or grandparent came in and we knew they didn\u2019t need restorative care or request cosmetic care, we wouldn\u2019t recommend it. You can expect that same treatment from us, even if we aren\u2019t related.<\/span><\/p>\n
