Digital X-Rays

Here at Phan-Tastic Smiles, we are proud to offer dental examinations and dental digital X-Rays for our patients.

Regular dental examinations and x-rays are the best way to ensure that you have a healthy smile. We start each examination with a professional cleaning so that we are able to examine your mouth and teeth closely. It is our goal to find and correct any problems before they become major ones!

X-Rays are used to examine the inside of your teeth. We are hoping to be able to catch any problems that we can’t see with the naked eye! Using radiology, we are able to see which teeth are developing cavities. We may also see some teeth or gum areas that may require some extra work.

If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, don’t hesitate to contact us today at (407) 282-7498.

Diagnodent®

Here at Phan-Tastic Smiles, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the latest technological advances. We work diligently, advocating for early detection of cavities and gum disease. We are proud to say that we use the Diagnodent® cavity-detection device.

This device is a high-tech fluorescent laser that aids in detecting caries (cavities) in their early stages. The Diagnodent® laser works by measuring changes in tooth structure, internal and external, and is ninety percent accurate in detecting early cavities.

The Diagnodent® laser is unique and no other product performs better. You receive exact results for every tooth scanned, and it is proven to be more accurate than just visual or X-ray detection.

This procedure is pain-free and preserves the teeth. The Diagnodent® device is easy to use and can detect even the smallest of lesions, which is especially useful for the deep pit and fissure areas of the tooth. There is no probing or scraping. The laser gives us a simple scan that signals the dentist with a gentle, audible alert.

By using the Diagnodent® laser, we can rest assured there is no hidden decay and head off any future potential problems, saving our patients’ tooth structures and improving their oral health.

If you have any questions about cavity detection or the Diagnodent® laser, don’t hesitate to contact us today at (407) 282-7498.

Fluoride Treatment

Here at Phan-Tastic Smiles, we are dedicated to the prevention of tooth decay.

We believe that fluoride works well to strengthen children’s teeth. It also has been shown to help prevent decay in people of all ages.

For this reason, the American Dental Association, American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Medical Association believe that topical fluoride is necessary for good oral health.

Because of this, you may be wondering if you need fluoride treatments. Many times, water is enhanced with fluoride, so additional fluoride treatments are not necessary. However, if your water is not treated, you may need fluoride treatments. You may also need a fluoride treatment if you are showing symptoms like receding gums. You may also want to get treated if you wear braces or are taking medications that cause dry mouth.

Fluoride treatments can be completed at your routine dental appointment. They are painless and quick, taking only a few minutes. When getting treated, your dentist will apply gel, foam, or varnish on your teeth. Treatment works best if it is done one to four times a year.

You may wonder what else you need to do in addition to getting regular fluoride treatments. The American Dental Association recommends drinking fluoridated water and using a toothpaste with fluoride.

If you have any questions about fluoride and your dental health, don’t hesitate to contact us today at (407) 282-7498.

Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation

Dr. Cuong Phan Performs the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique in Orlando, Florida which can Help with Gum Rejuvenation.

Gum recession breakthrough treatment is also known as Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation™ and Lunchtime Gum Lift™.

The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique (PST®), invented and patented by John Chao, D.D.S., is a scalpel-free, suture-free procedure for treating gum recession.

How Does it Work?

A dentist performs this procedure, making a small hole with a needle in the gum tissue. Using specially designed instruments, the gum tissue is loosened and guided over the receded part of the tooth.

Since there is no incision or suturing, patients can expect minimal post-operative symptoms (pain, swelling and bleeding). Most patients also are pleasantly surprised by the instant cosmetic improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions for Gum Rejuvenation

What is gum recession?

Gum recession refers to the loss of gum tissue along the gumline. This can occur as a result of periodontal disease (gingivitis, periodontitis, advanced periodontitis), the natural aging process, or abrasive habits when it comes to brushing the teeth.

Why should you take gum recession seriously?

When gum recession occurs, the root structure of the tooth becomes exposed. This means that tooth decay and other problems can affect the teeth along the gumline and beneath it. Since healthy gums are essential for a healthy mouth, treating your gum recession is important for lasting dental wellness.

What is Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique?

The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique is a minimally invasive option for treating gum recession. Unlike traditional grafting techniques, PST is scalpel and suture free.
Dr. John Chao created all of the tools and techniques used to perform the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique.

How does Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique differ from traditional gum grafting?

Traditional gum recession treatments involve the use of donor tissue or soft tissue grafts in order to rebuild the gumline. A doctor sutures this soft tissue in place and joins it with existing gum tissue as it heals. While this traditional grafting treatment is effective, comparable results with better patient experience can be achieved through this Pinhole Gum treatment.

How is Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique performed?

During the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique, the dentist uses a needle to make a small hole in the patient’s existing gum tissue. Through this pinhole gum rejuvenation, we use special instruments to gently loosen the gum tissue. These tools help expand and slide the gumline to cover the exposed root structure. There are no grafts, no sutures, and no incisions needed with the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique. It simply involves the adjustment of the existing tissue.

What are the benefits of Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique?

The benefits of the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique are many:

  • Less Discomfort for the patient after treatment.
  • Faster recovery for the patient than traditional grafting.
  • No need for:
    • uncomfortable sutures.
    • scalpels or invasive surgical tools.
    • donor tissue from the patient’s palate.
  • Excellent, natural-looking, long-lasting results.

Home Care

Here at Phan-Tastic Smiles, we are firm believers that good dental health begins with the proper oral hygiene and home care.

It is very important for a healthy mouth (and a beautiful smile) that you take good care of your teeth and mouth. Because we believe that a healthy mouth starts at home, we are dedicated to educating our patients on the correct way to take care of their teeth!

Proper care starts with regular teeth brushing. It is also important to change your brush regularly so it does the job that it is supposed to. Though many hate to do it, flossing and rinsing your mouth out with a good antibacterial rinse is also very important to have good dental health.

Dental care at home is not enough though. It is also important to visit your dentist regularly for cleanings and checkups. The sooner we catch any problems, the better off you will be.

Contact us today if you are interested in setting up an examination and learning about the best way to care for your teeth.

Sealants

Here at Phan-Tastic Smiles, we are pleased to offer dental sealants for our patients.

When we apply a dental sealant, we paint a plastic coating on top of your teeth. This makes your teeth smooth getting rid of the rough edges, depressions, and grooves that are commonly found on teeth. It is essentially a protective coating against tooth decay and cavities.

The most common place to paint sealants is on back teeth since they are often irregular. They can also be very hard to reach, even if you brush your teeth regularly. We use it more on children though we do perform sealants on adults too!

Don’t hesitate to contact us today at (407) 282-7498 if you have any questions about sealants.

Lori Gosselin

“I have been coming to Phantastic Smiles for maybe around 20 years. 16 years ago, I got a composite job done on my front tooth after I chipped half of it off as a child. This was supposed to be a temporary replacement, but has lasted 16 years so far and holding up well!”

Paolo Tursi

“Dr. Phan and his entire team are wonderful! The office is clean and technologically advanced. They really focus on providing comprehensive care and pay special attention to all the small details. I was given a customized treatment plan, and they were transparent about what items needed to be prioritized first. My visits have been pleasant and efficient. I recommend Phantastic Smiles to anyone seeking superb oral care.”

Regina Tran

"I had a tooth break and didn't have a local dentist. The moment I called, Kathy put me at ease and helped me get seen right away. Everyone was so kind and knowledgeable. I will definitely be back, and I'm delighted to now have a dentist in the area. Thank you to Kathy, Dana, and Dr. Phan!"

Kim S

"As always, extremely professional and gentle! Friendly office staff, and Dr. Phan truly cares about the health and comfort of his patients. Best experience ever!"
