“Today I had a root canal procedure by Dr. Thompson. For 45 years I’ve needed nothing but regular cleaning with no major work done on my teeth, so I was not sure what to expect. It did not sound good, however, the experience by Dr. Thompson and his staff was great! Literally, no pain or discomfort during or after the procedure. Thank you again for your great care!” Matt P.

Invisible Invisalign Braces

Are you looking to achieve straighter teeth, but dislike the idea of traditional metal braces? Dr. Thompson has a better alternative—an orthodontics system utilizing discrete clear aligners, known as Invisalign. With Invisalign, you can achieve the smile you want and still present the world with your natural teeth—not a mouth full of wires and brackets. We love the satisfaction that comes with transforming smiles and helping our patients show themselves off to the world. If you’d like to learn more about the Invisalign options we provide, come by our office or give us a call!

How do I find the best place to get dental work done?

There are two main things you should consider when looking for a skilled dentist: your needs and the dentist’s credentials. Is there a certain treatment you’re wanting to get? Would you prefer a practice that has advanced, non-invasive technology for improved comfort? Do they need to be located close to where you live? Questions like these can help you find the right dentist for you.

While any professional with a DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) or DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine) is qualified to practice dentistry, those who have additional experience, awards, or certifications can provide some extra reassurance. It never hurts to see if a dentist is affiliated with any prestigious institutions or training programs!

How can I get dental veneers in Corpus Christi?

By calling our office and scheduling a consultation with Dr. Thompson! As an exceptionally experienced dentist, Dr. Thompson has helped many patients transform their smiles with these cosmetics, and he would be happy to do the same for you. Most patients with good oral health are good candidates for dental veneers, so don’t hesitate to ask if you’d like more information. 

Is straightening my teeth worth it?

In the vast majority of cases, absolutely! Straightening your teeth or bite alignment can have numerous oral health benefits, such as more efficient chewing, easier brushing and flossing, and increased comfort. With a low-profile Invisalign treatment, you’ll likely complete the process more quickly than the average braces treatment and with minimal inconvenience.

One instance where it might not be worth it to straighten your teeth this way is if your misalignment is very minor. If the tilted look of your smile bothers you, we might instead recommend dental veneers, which can help your pearly whites appear more even.
