When your teeth and mouth need protection from contact sports, bruxism, or to help with snoring, our dentist, Dr. William D. Ledford can customize a mouthguard. At Blue Stream Dental, we want to prevent injury, not just treat it, so please give us a call at 816-569-9787 for a consultation.
We are dedicated to keeping your smile healthy and free from pain. To help us do this, we provide several types of mouthguards at our office. For our athletic patients, we often recommend a type of mouthguard called a sports guard. These fit over your teeth while you play sports to protect your smile from injury. Sports guards are especially important for our patients who play high-contact sports such as wrestling, football, hockey, and rugby; however, all types of athletes can benefit from an athletic mouth guard. Whether you play soccer, basketball, or baseball, a sports guard can be a great way to protect your smile and keep it safe.
While a number of types of athletic mouthguards are available, a custom-made mouthguard is the most effective in protecting your smile. This type of mouthguard is designed to comfortably fit your smile and prevent dental injury such as knocked out and chipped teeth. A sports guard can also help to prevent injury to the soft tissues of the mouth, including the tongue, lips, cheeks, and gums.
Contact our dental office today to learn more about mouth guards and their benefits. We look forward to caring for your smile!

At our practice, we enjoy caring for patients of all ages, including children. We encourage you to bring your child to our dental office every six months for a regular dental exam and cleaning. During this visit, our friendly dental team will gently clean your child’s teeth and check for signs of dental problems, such as tooth decay. We understand that it is important to build a positive, trusting relationship between your child and the dentist at a young age, and we are dedicated to ensuring that your child feels comfortable and safe at our office. If you have any questions about your child’s dental health or oral development, ask us anytime during the visit or by calling our dental office.
In addition to bringing your child to our office for regular check-ups, it is important that you help your child establish good oral hygiene habits at home. Teach your child to brush and floss their teeth every day, and help them maintain a balanced, healthy diet. We invite you to call or visit Blue Stream Dental to learn more about pediatric dentistry and how we can care for you and your family.
Discomfort and pain can be the result of an infection in the pulp of the tooth, which Dr. William D. Ledford may recommend treating with a root canal. Once an infection is detected, our dentist can likely save the tooth and prevent further infection and damage. Please call Blue Stream Dental at 816-569-9787 to relieve your pain with root canal treatment.
Root canal treatment is a type of endodontic therapy that is often recommended if the tooth pulp and nerves become infected or damaged. This may occur if injury or decay reaches deep into the tooth, past the outer enamel layer. When left untreated, this type of infection and disease may cause the tooth to die and hence necessitate tooth extraction. To restore the health of the tooth and avoid the need for extraction, Dr. Ledford will remove the infected and injured tissues from within the tooth, clean the tooth, and fill it with a medicated material. We will then cap the tooth with a restoration, such as a dental crown, to return the tooth to its original shape and structure. In most cases, a root canal can be completed in only one or two comfortable visits to our office.
Root canal treatment has a reputation for being a painful treatment. However, root canal treatment can often be completed with minimal discomfort thanks to advanced techniques, tools, and anesthesia. Our dentist, along with our entire dental team, works hard to provide you with a pleasant, comfortable experience each time you visit Blue Stream Dental. To learn more about root canal treatment, we welcome you to contact us today. We are committed to restoring your smile’s health.
Damage, infection, or overcrowding may necessitate tooth extractions in some patients. If you are in this situation, we invite you to contact our dentist, Dr. William D. Ledford, for a consultation. We can ensure you have a pain-free experience. Call Blue Stream Dental today at 816-569-9787 and relieve your discomfort!
Tooth extraction is the removal of a tooth. While we strive to avoid the need to remove a tooth whenever possible, certain conditions may make tooth extraction the most effective option for returning your smile to good health and function. Following the tooth extraction, we are happy to provide you with one of our excellent tooth replacement treatments, if needed, to restore your smile to optimal health, beauty, and function.
Dr. Ledford uses great care and skill when performing a tooth extraction to ensure that your dental experience is as comfortable and painless as possible. We will also provide you with detailed post-treatment care instructions so you can properly take care of your smile as it heals. For more information on tooth extractions, and to schedule, your personalized consultation at our friendly dental office, call or visit us today!
