Dental Concerns

Patients experience a variety of dental concerns and problems and seek treatment from our experienced team. Below is a list of some of the more common issues, however we encourage you to contact us to discuss your specific case.

Cavities & tooth decay

Treatment for cavities using materials like composite resin, amalgam, or ceramic to restore damaged teeth.

Crooked teeth

In the dental world, we often use the term “malocclusion” or “misalignment” to refer to crooked teeth. Misalignment or poorly spaced teeth can cause problems such as TMJ, decay (cavities), excessive wear and chipping of teeth, and many other problems that can cost you money down the road. 

Toothache

Tooth pain can vary in terms of cause and severity, so it must be addressed on a case by case basis. If it is determined that the tooth pain is being caused by infection or decay, either a filling or root canal therapy will likely be recommended. Fillings are designed to address decay that has created holes—or cavities—in the tooth structure. Root canal therapy enables our dentists to gain access to the inner nerve chamber of the tooth in order to remove infected tissue and bacteria.

Missing Teeth

Dental implants are the most ideal solution for replacing missing teeth. They are a permanent solution that preserves your bite and looks just like your natural teeth. Dr. Grant Olson has placed hundreds of dental implants and continues to refine his skill and study the latest techniques.

Stained Teeth

Coffee, tea, and wine can also cause unattractive stains, but we certainly aren’t going to suggest that you give them up! At Innovative Dental, we offer whitening options to help your smile shine bright while still enjoying your favorite beverages!

Tooth Wear

Teeth wear naturally as we age. Grinding, clenching, misalignment, and other dental issues can cause teeth to wear prematurely. When teeth are worn down, not only does it affect the look of your smile, but problems such as sensitivity and chewing discomfort can occur.

Dental Anxiety

Dental anxiety is probably the top reason people avoid the dentist. However, small dental problems can quickly escalate into larger and more costly issues when regular dental exams and cleanings are avoided. At Innovative Dental, we understand that the dentist’s office can be an intimidating place and we have made every effort to change the way you view dental care. In addition to creating a welcoming office environment, we have also invested in dental technology designed to help make the patient experience as smooth, relaxing, and pain-free as possible.

Teeth Grinding

Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a common concern that can lead to a range of issues, including an increased risk of cracks, chips, and premature tooth wear. Our dentists can conduct a thorough examination of your bite and the condition of your teeth in order to determine what action should be taken to protect your dentition. Common therapies include custom-made night guards and/or orthodontic interventions, which can help realign the bite and prevent further grinding.

Tooth Pain

Tooth pain can vary in terms of cause and severity, so it must be addressed on a case by case basis. If it is determined that the tooth pain is being caused by infection or decay, either a filling or root canal therapy will likely be recommended. Fillings are designed to address decay that has created holes—or cavities—in the tooth structure. Root canal therapy enables our dentists to gain access to the inner nerve chamber of the tooth in order to remove infected tissue and bacteria. Both procedures can usually be performed in one visit, and many patients report experiencing immediate relief once the infected tissue has been cleaned. Other possible causes of tooth pain include abscesses (pus-filled pockets that can occur within an infected tooth or along the gums or bone tissue), broken teeth, exposed nerves or dentin (the interior part of the tooth that is normally protected by the enamel), repetitive tooth grinding, and more. Our experienced team can help figure out what is causing your tooth pain and recommend the most appropriate treatment for resolving the issue efficiently and effectively.

The Overall Look

When you're missing teeth, it's about more than just how you look—it’s how you feel, eat, speak, and show up in the world. The Innovative Implant Smile can restore both function and appearance with a hand-crafted, implant-affixed smile design. Unlike traditional restoration options, our implant smiles offer a more permanent and natural solution, enhancing your smile and improving your ability to chew, speak, and of course, smile with confidence.

Unstable Dentures

In addition to visible cosmetic concerns, tooth loss can lead to a number of other problems, including difficulties chewing and speaking, gum disease, jawbone decay, and even changes to facial proportions. Dentures are a form of prosthetic designed to replace partial sections or full arches of missing or damaged teeth, helping to prevent these issues from occurring (or worsening) while effectively restoring both the appearance and function of the smile.

Decayed or Rotting Teeth

Tooth pain can vary in terms of cause and severity, so it must be addressed on a case by case basis. If it is determined that the tooth pain is being caused by infection or decay, either a filling or root canal therapy will likely be recommended. Fillings are designed to address decay that has created holes—or cavities—in the tooth structure. Root canal therapy enables our dentists to gain access to the inner nerve chamber of the tooth in order to remove infected tissue and bacteria.

Cracked or Chipped Teeth

Comprehensive cosmetic treatments, including veneers, bonding, whitening, and orthodontics, to transform the appearance of a smile.

Jaw Pain

Jaw pain can be caused by a variety of factors that are not limited to dental concerns. However, many patients experience jaw pain as a result of tooth or bite issues, such as misalignment or bruxism. In these cases, your dentist can often be an excellent resource. Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (commonly called TMJ Disorder or TMD)  is a multifactorial condition that can lead to an array of symptoms, including jaw pain, headaches, tooth wear, and more.

Gummy Smile

Procedures such as gum contouring or laser treatment to correct excessive gum tissue showing when smiling.

Bleeding Gums

Bleeding gums can be caused by a number of factors, with the most common being gum disease and poor dental hygiene. For those with poor dental care habits, switching up your routine is oftentimes a major step towards improved gum health. Proper brushing and flossing with regular professional dental cleanings can prevent bleeding gums while also helping to safeguard your long-term oral health.

Palatal Issues

Surgical treatment for congenital lip and palate defects.

Amazing Experience. This staff is very hospitable and professional. By far the best dental facility I have experienced. Danika, Emily, and Dr. Cook took great care of me!

AJ

This was my first time here and it was a great experience. Every staff member I met today was professional and very kind. They make every effort to make patients feel welcomed and comfortable; it was very much appreciated! I would definitely recommend Innovative Dental to anyone!

Brittney

I was referred to Innovative Dental by a family member and I called to set up a consultation. I was absolutely blown away by not only how beautiful the property was but the staff are all incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I received a full arch implant by Dr Grant and was treated with the very best care possible. I suffered my whole life with various dental issues prior to making the decision to give myself a chance to really smile again. I could not recommend Innovative Dental more. I have met some incredible people there and I have found my smile again. I couldn't be happier. Definitely a God send.

Jaime

Had my first appt and it was beyond amazing! Callie was my coordinator and Dr cook was amazing. They have some of the cheapest prices and they really want to work with me on how I want my teeth to look! Their waiting room is so nice and they have a free espresso machine that makes whatever you want. Definitely go!!!! Try them out! You won’t regret it!

Dakota

Danika and Dr. Downs were wonderful! I’m sure most people can agree the dentist isn’t the best place to be, especially for me as I have a bunch of anxiety around my teeth but I just have to say they made the experience wonderful! So kind and helpful and very informative. I love this dentist office, every-time I come I leave with a big smile on my face. Thank you both for an amazing experience. ❤️

Danika

Very first time there and WOW was I blown away from how welcoming and sweet everyone was!! They treated me so great. They were quick, informative, and let me yap🤣. Hannah walked me out and made me a very yummy coffee for my drive to work, she may have a calling as a barista!!! Overall Innovative Dental is a 11/10 experience!!

Kinlee

Innovative Dental is more than just a dentist office—it truly feels like a community. From start to finish, they keep you informed every step of the way, which makes the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

We recently switched insurance and unfortunately, had to find a new dentist. So we were recommended to try Innovative Dental. They got my daughter in quickly especially because she was having some pain from her wisdom teeth. Extremely professional, Very informative and treat you with first class service.

Dior

I am loving my new smile! I highly recommend Dr. Olson. I chose to get dental implants as opposed to dentures and I'm so glad I did. Everything was done the same day and it was painless! Also a big thank you to Rachel for taking such good care of me!

Amanda

We had an amazing experience with Dr. Olson and his wonderful crew! They are very professional, thorough and mindful in the care they provide for customers. The day of the procedure, they were without a doubt - prepared and on top of everything! The facility is very high quality. The staff members are excellent listeners and so patient. Would recommend them over and over again. Thank you, Innovative Dental!

Rhonda

Innovative has provided us with the best dental experience we’ve ever had. They prioritize your comfort with treats, stylish decor, friendly atmosphere but they also have top notch service. Every single person I have interacted with there has been kind, genuine and knowledgeable. They got me and my family in quickly. On top of all that, my favorite part is how knowledgeable the staff is about insurance. They knew my deductibles, they printed a treatment plan with accurate prices with and without insurance, as well as financing options. I will never go to another dentist!

Grace

I have been coming to innovative dental for some time now, and it never disappoints! I look forward to coming to my appointment. Today I had jackie and she was so sweet and quick. The atmosphere is amazing and it’s so beautiful inside with all the big windows.

Chasadie

Absolutely love this place the nicest people ever at a dentist office. I did the full mouth implants from drinking way to much soda all my years and they did a fabulous job. I feel the best I ever have. Absolutely love that I have Dr. Olson, and Morgan helping me out throughout the experience!

Cookie

Everything about this dental experience was great! Hannah was wonderful helping my wife be comfortable as a new patient! Dr Downs was very thorough. The facility is state of the art! Hygienist, Emily G, was super! We love going to the dentist now!

Brian

I had a great experience! My hygienist named Abigale was fantastic! Quick, very gentle, and incredibly thorough. I felt no pain at all during the cleaning. The doctor was also very friendly and gave me helpful tips on how to maintain my dental health at home. I really appreciated the complimentary beverage afterward too—such a nice touch! Highly recommend!

Jan

Today was my first visit with Innovative and I had an amazing experience! By far the best dental experience and treatment I have ever received! Everyone here is absolutely wonderful and caring! I'm very happy to find a new dental place that I will enjoy coming back to. Danika was so lovely and friendly! She made me feel so comfortable during my first visit. She explained things in ways I understood and didn't overwhelm me. The dentists here are equally warming and full of information. Very happy with my experience!

Ashley

Words cannot describe how awesome Innovative Dental was My son and I had trouble getting some paper work To them, they were so easy to work with and accommodating from her first visit, they were so helpful and talked to us in laymen terms. We were sure we wanted to do our dental work here. I would give them a 15 with 10 being the best. They were very supportive of my sun when he told them he did pain pills and they told him he would hurt more than the regular person. Every team member was awesome and worked well together. Dr Olsen was easy to talk to also. He made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Thank You EVERYONE you all were AWESOME!!!! P.S. MY SON LOVES HIS NEW SMILE AND TEETH!

Kathy

Innovative Dental is not like any other dental clinic I’ve ever been to. The facility is clean, beautiful and has state of the art technology. The staff were friendly and professional. I was given a free gift when I entered and after my appointment was offered a specialty drink (I chose a lavender latte). In addition, I was able to spend a few minutes in their full body massage chair. They have it all!! Thank you Hannah 😊

Darlene

All of the staff is very welcoming and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable and at ease, the office has a great relaxing vibe. Any questions that I had were addressed immediately with zero pressure for treatment. Complimentary drinks are great too!

Emily

Just had Sidney for my cleaning and needed to share that she was very professional, attentive, caring, and kind. She is great at her job and I really appreciated the TLC. I always have a great experience with the employees here. They're good to me and good to my kids! Thank you!

Gali

Innovative has been so good to me! I got braces and within a year I was able to get them off. They always have treated me so good and are super knowledgeable.
