Dr. Montgomery Can Ease Your Pain with Root Canals

Regardless of what you may have heard, root canals get rid of your pain; they do not cause pain. An infected tooth not only causes an immense amount of pain, but can be expensive down the road if nothing is done. At All Smiles Family Dental Care, we want to make sure we take care of all of your dental needs, and Dr. Montgomery is able help you along that journey!
Having a root canal done not only helps in getting rid of your pain, but it also benefits your teeth. A root canal is performed when there is an infected or decayed tooth, and the decomposition has to be removed before it gets any worse. Dr. Montgomery begins your root canal by accessing the infected tooth, and removing the pulp. When the tooth is infected, it also infects the pulp of the tooth, causing it to exacerbate. Once the pulp of the tooth is removed, Dr. Montgomery will fill the tooth with a tooth-colored filling, and top it with a crown to prevent any further corruption. In the end, you’re left feeling refreshed and in better oral health!
When you leave your teeth infected, not only can your mouth get worse, but it can affect you in other areas of your body. By delaying getting a root canal, the bacteria infecting your teeth can enter your blood stream, possibly causing harm to the rest of your body. It’s better to take care of your oral issues sooner rather than later or it may get worse! If you’re wondering how Dr. Montgomery can help you by performing a root canal, contact our office and make an appointment!

At All Smiles Family Dental CareDr. Katie Montgomery and her staff provide quality dental care to improve your entire family’s oral health. Our Marysville, OH dental office serves patients from Richwood, Plain City, Urbana and other surrounding Ohio towns. Give us a call today to schedule your next appointment.

Use Dental Benefits Before Time Is Up!

A lot of people don’t know that you actually save money in the long run when you take advantage of your dental insurance before the year ends. Though some insurance companies operate by a fiscal year, most of them abide the calendar year, meaning as soon as it strikes midnight on December 30, your benefits are long gone.

Unlike your cell phone minutes, your dental benefits do not roll over to the next year. You work hard to earn the benefits you have, accumulating possibly hundreds of dollars only to have it wasted. When you use your benefits before the year is up, you will be able to take advantage of your deductible before it resets. Also, it gives you the ability to use up your annual maximums. One of the more important reasons to take advantage of your dental benefits before the year ends is to take care of dental issues before it gets worse. What may appear to be a simple cavity or discomfort now could turn into something a lot more serious and expensive down the road.


If you are unsure about what your dental benefits may be or when they expire, ask your employer, or use the company handbook as a reference. Either way, being able to use your dental benefits before the year ends is beneficial for your money, and, more importantly, your teeth.

At All Smiles Family Dental CareDr. Katie Montgomery and her staff provide quality dental care to improve your entire family’s oral health. Our Marysville, OH dental office serves patients from Richwood, Plain City, Urbana and other surrounding Ohio towns. Give us a call today to schedule your next appointment.

Straighter Smiles in Marysville, OH with Invisalign



Is your smile not as straight as you’d like it to be? Are you feeling embarrassed by your crooked teeth? Are you perhaps an adult concerned about the affect metal braces would have on your professional image? There’s no need to hide your smile away from the world any longer. At All Smiles Family Dental Care, we can help straighten your smile with Invisalign, a clear braces solution.

Invisalign is a great choice for adults and older teens that are interested in achieving a straighter smile without undergoing metal braces. If we decide this is the right solution for your smile, we’ll start by taking a digital image of your teeth and use it to create a 3D impression of your smile. This image is then used to create your aligner trays for your Invisalign treatment.

Your teeth will gradually straighten over time as you switch out aligner trays every few weeks. The trays are removable, which makes it much simpler to clean your teeth than with traditional braces. Also, there’s no food restrictions and you have the flexibility to remove them for special occasions or pictures. Many patients find that Invisalign treatment fits into their life much easier than traditional braces. If you’re interested in learning more or setting up your initial consultation, just give us a call.

These offer an added layer of protection to the areas of the teeth that may be hard for children to reach. We’re committed to ensuring your child has a healthy smile now and in the future.

Help your child start off the new school year with a bright, healthy smile. First impressions are important, so call to schedule your child’s dental checkup appointment today.
