Dr. Jessica Lawson is a family, cosmetic, and restorative dentist, which means that she’s concerned about your oral health—all aspects of your oral health.
General, Cosmetic, and Restorative Services for Your Oral Health
As a family dentist, it’s necessary for Dr. Lawson and our team to offer a variety of services for our patients with a variety of needs. To put it simply, everyone needs general and preventive dental care and, even if your smile goals are aesthetically-based, Dr. Lawson wants to help you achieve and maintain healthy teeth and gums and therefore, a healthier body and higher quality of life.
Once your mouth is healthy—meaning strong and free of plaque, harmful bacteria, and serious infections and diseases, such as periodontal disease, dry mouth, and oral cancer—Dr. Lawson can help you achieve your dental beauty and functionality goals with cosmetic and restorative dentistry. These procedures often include white dental fillings and crowns, root canal therapy, dentures, dental implants, teeth whitening, and more.
In addition to providing mainstream dental services and procedures to her patients of all ages, Dr. Lawson goes above and beyond to ensure your oral health. She does this by offering custom athletic mouthguards, OralDNA testing, obstructive sleep apnea screenings and appliances, cavity risk assessments, tobacco cessation treatment, and TMJ nightguards at our Urbandale dentist office.
Going Above and Beyond for Your Oral Health
Don’t let the words “family and general dentist” fool you. Dr. Lawson has expertise in a variety of dental fields that all contribute to one goal: helping you maintain optimal oral health.
For example, Dr. Lawson can provide you with permanent replacement teeth that look, function, and feel just like natural teeth. She can whiten your smile and give you the smile of your dreams with porcelain veneers. Additionally, she can serve as a member of a highly skilled team of dental and medical professionals to help correct cleft lips and palates and restore optimal appearance and function to her patients’ mouths.
These examples are just a few of the ways Dr. Lawson takes care of your oral health, and she encourages you to come to her with all of your dental needs—large or small.
