When a tooth is damaged beyond repair, we may recommend tooth extractions. Extractions can be necessary for a variety of reasons, including severe decay, infection, or crowding. Dr. Watson will ensure the procedure is as comfortable as possible, offering sedation dentistry if needed to reduce anxiety and pain.

We understand that dental visits can be anxiety-inducing for some patients, which is why we offer sedation dentistry options to ensure a comfortable and stress-free experience.

Dr. Watson and his team will guide you through the process and recommend the best sedation option based on your needs to ensure a calm and pain-free procedure.

Fluoride is a key component in protecting your teeth against decay. Our fluoride treatments help strengthen enamel, making teeth more resistant to acid and bacteria. These treatments are especially beneficial for children, but adults can also benefit from fluoride to reinforce their teeth’s natural defenses.

For added protection against decay, we offer dental sealants—a quick and painless procedure that applies a protective coating to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. Sealants are particularly effective for children but are also beneficial for adults prone to cavities.

Cavities can affect anyone, but at Michael J. Watson DDS, we restore teeth quickly and effectively using tooth-colored dental fillings. These fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making them both aesthetically pleasing and durable. If you need more extensive restorative work, we also provide dental crowns and bridges to restore function and appearance.
