Services
Emergency Dentistry
Our urgent care team treats toothaches, broken teeth, and infections with immediate pain relief and diagnostic imaging. Same-day appointments ensure prompt treatment for severe dental trauma or sudden oral health crises. We prioritize preserving natural teeth through reimplantation and surgical interventions when needed.
Dental Implants
Permanent solutions for missing teeth include single implants, All-On-4 systems, and implant-supported bridges. 3D imaging ensures precise placement while guided surgery minimizes recovery time. Our bone grafting expertise accommodates patients with limited jaw density for long-term oral restoration.
Invisalign Treatment
Customized Invisalign therapy straightens teeth discreetly using sequential plastic trays. Digital treatment planning maps precise tooth movement while iTero scans eliminate traditional impressions for better patient comfort and accuracy during orthodontic correction.
TMJ Treatments
Comprehensive management of temporomandibular joint disorders combines physical therapy, custom splints, and bite analysis. Diagnostic tools identify muscle tension causes while personalized care plans address chronic headaches and jaw mobility issues through non-invasive interventions.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Surgical extraction prevents complications from impacted third molars using sedation techniques for patient comfort. Pre-operative imaging assesses proximity to nerve pathways while post-op care ensures minimal swelling and faster healing through proper surgical protocols.

Report
After going to the dentist Jan 4, I was told I needed a lot of work done. Including getting my wisdom teeth removed. I was really uneasy and so I looked for a second opinion. My friend referred me to Dental Renaissance and their whole team was amazing. I felt very at ease and turns out I dont need done what the previous dentist said. Im moving our whole family over to this practice moving forward.

I had my regular appointment at Dental Renaissance and could not be happier. Everyone that I encountered at the office was friendly, professional and explained every procedure. I am so glad I found this practice, as it can be tricky finding healthcare providers that you like. I will recommend Dental Renaissance to anyone looking for a great dentist. Thank you!

Update: Warning if you are considering getting Invisalign from Dental Renaissance. In their big sales pitch, they don't tell you that they only fix certain things. My husband is now going to need to start with an orthodontist to fix the issues that have been caused to his bite, which won't be covered by Invisalign. He's been having headaches and is only biting on his back two teeth. None of this was not mentioned up front. Get a second opinion with an Orthodontist before you spend the money.

Dr. Blakenship has provided wonderful guidance and planning for my dental care in the short time that I had started to visited Dental Renaissance. The staff are nothing short of cordial and professional, and I can see the immediate results of their services for the long term of my teeth. Even if I may end up finding a different dentist due to my move to Mesquite in the near future, I would certainly be sorely missing out on Dr. Blakenship's care.
