As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Bang offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Dental Injury: Your dentist is the best resource for treating dental injuries, from fixing chips and cracks to addressing more serious trauma to your teeth and jaw.
- Tooth Loss: General dentists diagnose the causes of tooth loss, such as gum disease or injury, and provide treatments to prevent further loss and replace missing teeth.
- Carcinoma Tongue: Carcinoma of the tongue is cancer affecting the tongue, and your dentist's regular exams are crucial for early detection and timely referral for treatment.
- Crooked Teeth: Crooked teeth, or malocclusion, are teeth that are misaligned or don't fit together correctly, and a general dentist can assess your needs and refer you to an orthodontist for treatment.
- Tooth Demineralization: When your teeth lose minerals, a process called demineralization, they become vulnerable to decay; regular checkups with your general dentist help detect and reverse early stages of demineralization.
- Gum Cancer: If you have sores or unusual growths in your gums that don't heal, your general dentist can assess them for signs of gum cancer.
- Cleft Palate: A cleft palate is a birth defect where the roof of the mouth doesn't close completely, and a general dentist plays a key role in managing this condition, often working with other specialists to ensure proper growth and speech development.
This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.
To provide comprehensive and patient-centered care, Dr. Bang offers a range of services designed to diagnose, manage, and treat various health concerns:
- Tooth Replant: If a tooth is accidentally knocked out, a dentist can try to replant it to save the tooth and prevent bone loss.
- Dental X-Ray: Before procedures like placing implants or crowns, dental X-rays help your dentist accurately assess the condition of the bone and teeth.
- Osseous Surgery: Osseous surgery is a surgical procedure used to correct bone defects in the jaw, often to improve the success of other dental procedures.
- Comprehensive Dental Exam: A comprehensive dental exam is a thorough check-up of your mouth, teeth, and gums to identify any problems early.
- Root Planing: To treat gum disease effectively, your dentist may recommend root planing, a deep cleaning that smooths the tooth roots, allowing your gums to reattach and heal.
- Cerec® Tooth Restoration Procedure: Cerec® allows for the restoration of damaged teeth using a chairside CAD/CAM system, providing a strong and natural-looking crown in just one visit.
- Ultrasonic Dental Cleaning: Ultrasonic cleaning uses vibrations to remove plaque and tartar from your teeth, leaving them feeling smoother and cleaner than a standard cleaning.
Service availability can change. To understand which services are appropriate for your specific health needs, please schedule a consultation to develop a personalized care plan.
All medical services are provided in accordance with the standard scope of practice for their professional license in Texas.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Dr. Bang:
- How is my dental health connected to my overall health, like my heart?
- Your oral health is critically linked to your overall health, including your heart. Bacteria from chronic gum disease can enter your bloodstream, increasing your risk for heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular dental care is essential for maintaining not only healthy teeth, but also your overall well-being.
- My medications make my mouth constantly dry. Is this a dental problem?
- Yes, dry mouth (xerostomia) is a common side effect of many medications. Saliva is the body's natural defense against cavities, so a dry mouth significantly increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Dr. Bang can recommend special rinses, gels, and other strategies to manage dry mouth.
- If I need a root canal, will I have to see a specialist?
- General dentists, like Dr. Bang, can perform many root canals. For more complex cases, a referral to an endodontist may be necessary to ensure the best possible outcome. Many root canals can be performed right here in the office by Dr. Bang.
- What is an oral cancer screening and is it part of my check-up?
- An oral cancer screening is a quick, painless part of every routine dental exam. Dr. Bang will visually inspect your lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, and throat for any unusual sores or discolorations. Early detection is key to successful treatment.
- My dentures don't fit as well as they used to. What can be done?
- Over time, jawbone and gum changes can make dentures loose. A relining procedure can reshape the denture for a better fit, or a new denture may be necessary if the current one is significantly worn. A proper fit is essential for comfortable eating and speaking.
- Are dental implants a good option for replacing missing teeth?
- Dental implants are often an excellent long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. They provide a secure foundation for a crown or bridge that looks and feels like a natural tooth, and can help preserve the jawbone.
- Is it normal for my gums to bleed when I brush or floss?
- No, healthy gums should not bleed. Bleeding when brushing or flossing is usually the first sign of gum inflammation (gingivitis). This is often reversible with a professional cleaning and improved daily oral hygiene, but if left untreated, can progress to more serious gum disease.
- How often should I see the dentist, even if nothing hurts?
- Most people benefit from a check-up and cleaning every six months, even if nothing hurts. These visits are crucial for preventing problems like tartar buildup, cavities, and gum disease, which can be costly to treat if left unaddressed.
