An unfortunate side effect of common dental phobia is an unhealthy mouth and an unhealthy body. Dr. Terry McClanahan sees patients with dental fears nearly every day and he can offer you a range of comfortable and relaxing options! Ask us about conscious sedation to help relieve the stress of some cosmetic dentistry procedures. We also provide dental implants, cosmetic dentistry and wisdom teeth.
Visiting us on a regular basis significantly decreases your risk of gum disease and tooth decay, which further decreases your risk of other complications, including heart disease.
If your dental anxieties have kept you out of the dentist's chair for too long, you'll be happy to know that we can usually correct years of dental problems in just one or two visits with sedation dentistry. Stress-free dentistry at Terry A McClanahan DDS APC can give you back your dental health!

From whitening to ultra-sensitive, there are a multitude of toothpastes available on today's market. How do you choose? Start by selecting one with fluoride, which will prevent cavities. Other things to consider are flavor, whitening potential, tartar control and price. Often the biggest difference between two brands is packaging, so don't get hung up on the finer details. Consider selecting fun flavored toothpaste for children, as it will encourage them to brush regularly.
Very young children require a fluoride-free variety for safety. Call us at (619) 543-1588 and Dr. Terry McClanahan will be happy to recommend a toothpaste that’s right for your family.
At Terry A McClanahan DDS APC we believe that the good habits of effective daily brushing and a healthy diet will help the aging person adapt to changing conditions. Reduced salivary flow and addition of medications can affect oral health dramatically.
Teeth may darken because of long-term exposure to plaque and changes in the dentin within the tooth. The gums may recede and uncover the roots, making them more prone to decay. Poorly-fitting or poorly-cleaned dentures, illness, and some medications increase the severity of the problem. For more information regarding dental problems of seniors, please call our office at (619) 543-1588.
There are a number of things you can do if you feel either you or somebody you love is suffering from nighttime teeth grinding or bruxism. For starters, try to alleviate whatever stress in your life you can. Kick the tobacco habit and heavy drinking, and try not to drink too much coffee.
Severe cases may need to be fitted with a mouth guard or have their teeth reshaped to eliminate unusual alignment. If you feel you may be suffering from bruxism, call Terry A McClanahan DDS APC at (619) 543-1588 to schedule a consultation.
