My name is Dr. Stuart Kalmus, my office is located at 5970 Babcock Rd. San Antonio, TX. I understand some people’s apprehension about visiting the dentist, but it is really necessary for everyone in order to maintain good health. That’s right: regular dentist visits help keep your teeth and the rest of your body healthy.

Some people get confused by the different types of dentists out there. There’s general dentistry, surgical dentistry and many other specialty fields. So what is general dentistry? If you’re familiar with doctors and the concept of a general practitioner, that same concept applies to general dentistry. Chances are if you visited a dentist for most of your life that dentist is a general dentistry practitioner. Most of your dental needs can be met by a general dentistry practitioner, though you may be referred to a specialist for some specific issues.

No matter what your dental problems are, you should always start out with a dentist who is skilled in general dentistry. If you need additional dental care, a good dentist has all the resources necessary to point you in the right direction. I have seen thousands of patients at my San Antonio office and will be happy to assist you with any dental problems that you may have.

If you haven’t been to the dentist for a while and are looking for new dental office give me a call at (210) 691-1200, or click here to schedule an appointment with my office today.

Benefits of Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry makes many common procedures much easier to perform. For patients this is a big benefit. I know that no one wants to spend more time undergoing dental procedures than they have to. That’s where laser dentistry can really benefit patients.

Many dental procedures can be performed significantly faster than with traditional methods. What’s even better about laser dentistry techniques is the fact that recovery time is sped up for many dental procedures. Laser dental techniques also make stitches unnecessary in many cases where they would have been previously required. This is a big benefit for both the patients and dentists.

To put it simply, laser dental techniques can make your next dental procedure easier to perform, and provide you with a much shorter recovery time. That’s good news, no matter how you look at it. It’s an awesome thing when breakthroughs in technology make life easier for people and take complicated procedures and make them less burdensome.

If you’re looking for a new dentist or if you’re curious about laser dentistry, please call my San Antonio office at (210) 691-1200 or click here to schedule an appointment.

What is Sedation Dentistry?

This kind of dental service is perfect for people who just can’t get past the anxiety of seeing a dentist to receive good care for their teeth. Sedation dentistry requires additional training for the dentist to deal with some of the techniques involved.

A standard experience with sedation dentistry starts with a consultation. If a follow up visit is deemed necessary, the dentist will give medication to the patient. This medication is to be taken before the dental appointment. Patients will become very relaxed and free from their anxieties due to the medication. They will not be completely asleep, but they will be able to get their teeth examined and worked on without the fear and anxiety that they normally have. This is the perfect solution for people who can’t get to the dentist any other way.

If you have questions about sedation dentistry or any other dental services, please call my office at (210) 691-1200 to set up an appointment. My office is located at 5970 Babcock Rd. San Antonio, TX 78240. You can also click here to set up an appointment with me, Dr. Kalmus.

Not only does seeing the dentist regularly keep your smile looking great and your mouth clean and healthy, it can also detect the early signs of other, more serious health issues.

Dentistry is Key to Your Overall Health

Taking care of your teeth is so important to your health that it’s a shame more people don’t take the time to do it. You can’t get by on brushing and flossing alone. While these steps are important, there’s more to dentistry than simply brushing twice a day.

A skilled dentist such as me, Dr. Kalmus, can help you when you have problems such as cavities or chipped teeth.

Quite simply put, seeking skilled, professional dentistry services such as the ones that I offer at my office located at 5970 Babcock Rd., 78240 is crucial if you want to stay healthy.

You Don’t Have to Settle for Dentures

Tooth loss used to mean that you either dealt with not having a tooth or you got dentures. There simply were not a lot of options. Today, however, cosmetic dentistry has a few more things that can be done for people who have lost teeth. There are dental implants available that can replace a lost tooth. These implants look and feel like a real tooth and patients love the feeling they get from having one put in and being able to avoid dentures. This is just one procedure that cosmetic dentistry can help you with. There are also easier ways to fix crooked or uneven teeth, and some great new ways to whiten your teeth for a more attractive smile. If you’ve thought about cosmetic dentistry but have some questions, please click on this link to set up an appointment with me.

You can also call my San Antonio office at (210) 691-1200 to talk with me about your concerns. Cosmetic dentistry just might be the right solution to the concerns that you have.
