General Dentistry

At Blue Bird Dentistry, we provide services to prevent problems from developing, restore teeth if damage occurs, and put the finishing touch on a healthy smile.

When you are looking for a dental home for your family, it’s wise to choose a general dentist. Just like a primary care physician who monitors your overall health needs, a general dentist like Dr. Mohamed Elnahass oversees all your oral health needs.

We believe the key to providing the highest quality dental care is in the relationships we build with our patients of all ages. Visiting a dental practice where you feel valued and respected can completely change your attitude about oral health care.

Preventive Care

For patients who enjoy good oral health, we recommend preventive visits to our office every six months. If you have a history of dental conditions or are prone to decay or gum disease, we may suggest more frequent exams or cleanings so we can stop problems before they start.

Some of the preventive services we provide during these visits are:

Dental exams
Professional dental cleanings
Patient education
Digital x-rays as needed
Oral cancer screening
Custom night and athletic guards

All of these services are designed to maintain your oral health and keep you a step ahead of conditions like decay and gum disease that damage your oral health and cause pain and discomfort.

Services to Restore a Damaged Smile

We do our best to prevent problems from developing, but every patient comes to us with unique needs. If multiple issues have crept up on you over the years, please don’t worry that we will judge or lecture you; we’re just happy that you have chosen to enjoy a healthier smile, and we will support you in every way we can.

If you have dental damage or missing teeth, we offer tooth-colored fillings, all-ceramic dental crowns, fixed bridges, and dental implants that will restore your oral health and improve your appearance.

Sometimes, though, a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a simple restoration and requires root canal treatment to save it. Or, if the damage is too severe, an extraction may be in your best interest. If you need either procedure, we can assure you that Dr. Elnahass is a gentle, caring dentist who performs these procedures efficiently and comfortably. We can also talk to you about our soothing sedation options if you are interested.

Part of being an outstanding general dentist is knowing when a referral to a specialist is in your best interest. If we do refer you to one of our trusted colleagues, you can be confident that Dr. Elnahass will consult with your specialist to ensure you are receiving the highest quality care.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I first take my child to the dentist?

We agree with the recommendation of the American Dental Association that children should see the dentist within six months after the first tooth appears but no later than age one. Many parents are surprised that we start so early, but there are a couple of reasons for this.

One of the most important is that we want your little one to get used to the environment of a dental office. It can be overwhelming for a very young child, so we want to give them all the time they need to get comfortable with us. The first visit is meant to be low stress; we’ll give them a ride in the big chair, count their teeth, and let them look in the little mirror.

You can be confident knowing that Dr. Elnahass will never attempt to treat a child if they aren’t ready. These should be positive visits so we can start to build the foundation for your child’s future oral health care.

Of course, we also need to monitor their dental development because baby teeth have the important job of holding a space for the permanent teeth that are already growing in the gums. If a tooth is lost too soon because of decay or infection, surrounding teeth start to shift, resulting in crowding and alignment problems when the permanent tooth finally arrives.

If it’s time for your child’s first visit or you have questions about childhood oral health, please call Blue Bird Dentistry to arrange an appointment.
