Then, on to more fun stuff: The comprehensive exam! At our state-of-the-art dental office in Mt. Pleasant, we love to involve our patients in this examination, talking to them and showing them what we are seeing as we go along. Of course, if you have any concerns or questions, go ahead and ask!

Dental Examination
Then, on to more fun stuff: The comprehensive exam! At our state-of-the-art dental office in Mt. Pleasant, we love to involve our patients in this examination, talking to them and showing them what we are seeing as we go along. Of course, if you have any concerns or questions, go ahead and ask! This first exam is special and we will never rush you through it. It helps us get a clear and complete picture of your health, get to know your needs, and understand exactly how we can start you on the path to complete oral health. If it has been a while since your last x-rays, we may ask for digital radiographs to make sure we have the fullest understanding of your current dental status.
X-rays
After talking about oral cancer, we think it is important to let you know that, here at Kari Ryan Dentistry, we understand that traditional dental x-rays could possibly increase your risk for oral cancer. The Oral Cancer Foundation states, â€œRadiographs regularly taken during examinations, and at the dental office are safe, but remember that radiation exposure is cumulative over a lifetime. It has been implicated in several head and neck cancers.â€
Oral Cancer Screening
No one talks about oral cancer nearly as much as some other cancers, but oral cancer deserves just as much attention. According to the American Cancer Society...

Teeth Cleaning
Baby teeth arenâ€™t there just for the tooth fairy to collect – oh, no! Even though your little one wonâ€™t keep those cute little chompers forever, they serve all kinds of vital purposes and need to be kept healthy, strong, cavity-free, and in place until it is time for those grown-up teeth to take their place. Not only are teeth vital in helping your child take in good nutrition and develop proper speech habits, they also act as place holders for permanent teeth. Without them, the remaining teeth can shift, leading to crowding or other orthodontic problems. We are here to help keep both your children’s and special needs family membersâ€™ teeth in tip-top shape with regular checkups and gentle cleanings starting at age two. It is very important to start bringing your little ones to the dentist as early as possible – this helps them get comfortable with the sights and sounds of the dental office and it helps you become informed and educated about home care. We offer a full range of pediatric care including...
Fluoride Treatment
Almost everything you do can have a negative effect on your smile. From your morning smoothie to your pick-me-up snack of coke and pretzels, food and drinks, even healthy ones, feed acid-producing bacteria and disrupt your enamel. Add to that the damage that happens when you bite your nails, crunch on ice, or clench your teeth when stressed or sleeping, and it might look like your teeth are in trouble all the time! Thatâ€™s why we recommend fluoride treatments, especially for kids, at every cleaning. Fluoride is a naturally-occurring substance that helps protect your precious tooth enamel by remineralizing it, making it more resistant to these acid attacks, strengthening it against damage, and helping to prevent and sometimes even reverse early decay. And while most kinds of toothpaste and mouth rinse contain fluoride, it might not be quite enough to protect your teeth from the modern diet. Why risk your smile? Ask us about how the topical application of fluoride after your cleaning can help protect your teeth, lessen sensitivity, and keep your smile in top shape.
Dental Sealants
Dental Sealants to smooth over deeper grooves and fissures making tooth surfaces easier to clean and provide years of protection

Fillings
Sometimes we discover a tooth has more damage under an old filling. Other times we find there isnâ€™t quite enough damaged tooth structure to support a composite dental filling, but the damage isnâ€™t quite bad enough to require a full crown. Thatâ€™s when our porcelain inlays and onlays come into play. Made of porcelain, dental inlays and onlays require less tooth preparation before application and are therefore less invasive. Dental inlays sit inside the points or cusps of your teeth, while onlays cover one or more cusps. Dr. Ryan and her team always prefer to use these instead of outdated metal fillings, because they are far more attractive and contain no mercury. And unlike amalgam fillings, dental inlays and onlays are bonded to teeth instead of forced into them, helping support their strength and integrity. Best of all, we can usually create your porcelain inlay or onlay right here in our office in one visit. Just as when making a crown, we use our CEREC technology to scan, design, and mill your restoration. Thereâ€™s no need for temporaries or return visits. Youâ€™ll leave with a strong, lasting restoration that looks and feels so natural you may forget which tooth was restored!
Veneers
What can strengthen, lengthen, whiten, correct, and beautify your smile all in one procedure? Porcelain veneers! Porcelain dental veneers are one of our most popular cosmetic treatments for their lasting beauty and restorative qualities. As with any kind of veneers, porcelain tooth veneers cover the surface of your own teeth, creating a brand-new, incredibly natural-looking and hard-wearing surface. Dr. Ryan starts the process with an in-depth discussion about your needs, hopes, and desires. We will often use digital imaging to preview possible smile looks, trying on tooth lengths, widths, and shades until we find the perfect smile to bring out the best of your face shape and features, suit your personality, balance your bite, and harmonize your smile. Once your porcelain veneer design is chosen, we will work with you to create a treatment plan, prepare your teeth, take molds, and send everything to our world-class lab for completion. When your custom-made veneers return, we simply bond them in place, and ta-da! Your new smile is ready to show off to the world! And donâ€™t forget, because all of our veneers are made of pure, biocompatible dental porcelain, dental veneers from Kari Ryan Dentistry look as if nature placed them herself – with an extra dash of stain resistance and translucent whiteness that surpasses even natural tooth enamel!
Crowns
Dental work in Mt. Pleasant, like dental crowns, are as convenient as they are beautiful, we have our own in-house dental lab and CEREC technology, so we can create your crowns in one visit!
Bridges
Missing even a few teeth is a miserable experience. It can severely affect your confidence; leave remaining teeth vulnerable to shifting; and create a gap that collects food, feels sensitive, and increase your risk for gum disease. Dental bridges from Kari Ryan Dentistry in Mt. Pleasant can replace your teeth, restore your confidence, and keep you healthy for decades to come. We offer both traditional bridges attached to and supported by abutment teeth, as well as implant-supported bridges. Traditional bridges are made up of one or more crowns, depending on your situation, and bonded to prepared remaining teeth. Implant-retained bridges consist of one or more crowns attached to implant posts, surgically placed into your jaw bone for superior stability and function. Both methods give you back the beauty, comfort, and function of your smile. Since they are custom designed just for you by our artistic dentists, you can be sure that they will look so natural, most people will never know you were missing teeth at all!
Dental Bonding
The crack in your front tooth that makes you feel so self-conscious. The irritating sensitivity and darkness at your gumline. The black-looking metal filling that keeps you from laughing with abandon. Sometimes itâ€™s the little things that make life less joyful and comfortable, but they donâ€™t have to! With the art of composite bonding, we can renew your smile and increase your confidence in one, easy, painless visit. Composite bonding is our go-to for all the touch-ups, big or small, your smile could ever need. We simply talk to you about what you want, shade or brighten the bonding material to naturally match your surrounding teeth, and apply! Because composite bonding is shaped and sculpted directly on your tooth, it is important to choose a caring and meticulous dentist like Dr. Ryan or Dr. Dillard to complete your dental bonding and ensure that it will look perfectly beautiful and complement your appearance. Your smile will thank you!
Restorative Dentistry
But donâ€™t worry: the team at Kari Ryan Dentistry is highly trained and experienced in restorative dentistry for all ages. Even challenging cases get us excited! Thatâ€™s because we work to make sure any of our dental restorations could fool Mother Nature herself. We take pride in helping every patient find renewed confidence and health.

Root Canal Treatment
Root canals! Most people are so misinformed about these procedures, they use them as a synonym for the worst kind of misery you can imagine. How many times have we heard someone say, â€œ Iâ€™d rather have a root canal than (insert something dreadful here)â€ ? Enough that we think it needs to be addressed and corrected, thatâ€™s for sure! Instead of being the worst dental procedure imaginable, root canals might actually be one of the best! Why? Endodontics is a branch of dentistry that saves teeth from extraction! Thatâ€™s right – that root canal is designed to save even a dead, infected, or severely damaged tooth so your bone-stimulating tooth roots stay in place and you donâ€™t have to worry about costly tooth replacements. Whatâ€™s more, endodontic root canals stop your toothache in its tracks. How does it work? Inside your tooth is a network of blood vessels and nerves called pulp that helped feed and support your tooth as it was growing in, but stopped being needed after your dentition was fully developed. This pulp can become infected all the way into your root canals, causing severe pain and leading to all kinds of problems with both your smile and your health. During a root canal, we simply open your tooth, clean out the pulp, sterilize the inside of your tooth, fill everything with special material, and seal it all with a beautiful and supportive crown. Infection is removed or prevented, your pain ended, and your own tooth is saved!

Deep Cleaning
Itâ€™s one of the primary reasons we emphasize regular screenings and cleanings for the whole family! If we do discover the first signs of gum disease, we can develop a treatment plan just for you. This usually includes deep cleaning with our comfortable ultrasonic scalers and antibiotic therapy with Arrestin, an antibiotic placed inside the infected gum pockets in order to kill periodontal bacteria. Arrestin is composed of tiny microspheres that can last inside the gum pocket for up to 21 days. In no time, your gums will be back in the pink and your body will be protected from harm.

Dentures
But no matter how you have lost your teeth, your implant dentist understands how devastating the changes can be to your lifestyle. Eating can become a chore. Your speech is altered. Your facial bone structure begins to shrink and cause a collapsed look. You could begin to develop TMJ issues. Your confidence suffers, and you hide your smile. And that sticky adhesive! Itâ€™s mushy and canâ€™t hold your dentures as securely as you thought it would. Tooth loss is absolutely no fun.

Dental Implants
No one gets excited about losing their teeth â€” even knowing that dental implants in Mt. Pleasant are available as a 100 percent effective solution. In fact, many people donâ€™t really know what dental implants are or how positively they can impact the process of tooth loss. If you are missing one, a few, or even all of your teeth, the team at Kari Ryan Dentistry would love an opportunity to talk to you about your tooth-replacement options. We are here to help you regain the confidence and function you might have thought were lost forever.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
When you need oral surgery isnâ€™t it nice to know that you can rely on the comfort and convenience of having your procedure completed with us? Whether you need one or all of your teeth removed, we can help you stay comfortable with a dose of relaxing laughing gas, a comforting blanket and pillow, and your choice of music in noise-canceling headphones. Just lie back, relax, and we will take good care of you. We always recommend socket preservation with a bone graft after oral surgery to improve the appearance of your remaining teeth. This helps to keep them from moving out of pace and keeps your extraction site ready and able to receive a dental implant without complications. If you have been told that you need one or more teeth removed, talk to us today, we will do everything we can to preserve your natural teeth, keep you comfortable during surgery, and make your tooth replacement easy, attractive, and just right for you.
Tooth Extractions
Whether you are coming to us for a tooth or teeth extraction or you have had dentures for years, we can help you decide which tooth replacement option is right for you. We start by using our non-invasive 3-D Cone Beam scanner to take an image of your jawbone structure. If you have sufficient bone mass and good oral health, we will refer you to a trusted oral surgeon for the placement of your post or posts while we fabricate your replacement teeth. If you have some bone loss, we can often reinforce the structure enough with bone grafting before we refer you for placement for your dental implants in Mt. Pleasant.

Teeth Whitening
You just canâ€™t live without your morning cup of coffee and taking a break with a cup of tea is your go-to for the mid-afternoon slump.

But there they are, the tell-tale signs of staining and discoloration that come along with almost anything we eat and drink. Donâ€™t worry. You donâ€™t have to give up your favorite beverages or staining foods, not when Kari Ryan Dentistry offers the most effective and long-lasting method of smile whitening out there – KÃ¶R Deep Bleaching.

Pleasant and also it seems that everywhere you look, you notice beautiful smiles – and not just on celebrities or stars. Everyone seems to have white, straight, gorgeous teeth. How do they do it? And why do your teeth have to be so embarrassingly unhealthy looking? You know you could get some cosmetic dentistry, but that just feels a little vain. You have other priorities after all.
General Dentistry
General Dentistry in Mt. Pleasant should be easy for you and your family. We know that you’re busy… The thing is, no matter how careful you are with your oral and physical health, avoiding regular dental checkups and cleanings could mean you are missing signs and symptoms of both oral and physical health.
