The unfortunate stereotypical stigma associated with family dentists in Texas has created a barrier for many residents, and this roadblock prevents them from receiving the proper dental care they both need and deserve. We are committed to not only providing you with the best effective dental care, but also creating an atmosphere where our patients feel confident, comfortable, and anxiety-free.

At Shifa Dental, we provide non-surgical dental care treatments, laser treatment, gum graft surgery, dental crown lengthening, plastic surgery procedures, regenerative procedures, dental implants, and pocket reduction procedures.
If a patient can be cured without surgery, we will give priority to non-surgical procedures. Non-surgical procedures include scaling and root planning, tray delivery systems. In the scaling and root planning procedure, our trusted Plano periodontists will clean the root of the tooth in order to remove harmful substances, such as tartar. This careful cleaning usually eliminates the requirement for surgery. Of course, patients must continue visiting their Plano dentist to monitor the health of their teeth and roots. In tray delivery systems, patients transfer the periodontists-prescribed medications to their mouth via a customized tray. Other than these dental care methods, your periodontist may recommend using night-guards and bite-guards as part of nonsurgical treatment.
Our Plano periodontists use surgical dental care procedures to reduce the space between teeth and their gums, to prepare the gums for implants, to reproduce soft as well as hard tissues, to fill indentations, to increase the surface of teeth, and to prepare your jaw for any other surgical process.
