To Our Patients,

We understand and deeply respect that you may be concerned about coronavirus in public places, even at our state-of-the-art sterilized office.

Our first priority is always the health and well-being of our patients. And that is a priority we take extremely seriously, even with the current disruptions we’re all experiencing.

It has been a very difficult decision, but we have decided that it is in the best interest of our community, our team, and our patients that we not see regular patients until at least Monday, April 1, 2020.

If you do have a dental emergency, we are here and will be here and happy to help you. Please call us and we’ll get you in ASAP.

If you do have a scheduled appointment, we will be reaching out to you directly to get you rescheduled to a future date.

This is just one more way that we can show our high level of care for you … and for everyone in our community. We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon.

As always, if you have any questions, please call our office at 502-430-3451.

Sincerely,

Dr. Michael Kirchner
Kirchner Dental of St. Matthews

General Dental Care Matters at Every Stage of Life

Healthy smiles don’t just happen on their own. You have to brush and floss daily, and you should get professional checkups regularly to reduce your risk of tooth decay and periodontal problems. When you visit us, we are happy to provide:

  • Dental Cleanings and Exams – Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup from your mouth, while exams help us identify potential problems in the early stages when treatment is easier. We can even show you real-time images inside your mouth using our intraoral camera.
  • Gum Disease Treatment – Through a process called scaling and root planing, we remove tartar from the roots of your teeth, which causes irritation and infection of gum tissue.
  • Oral Cancer Screenings – Early detection makes a big difference in treating oral cancer. We hope we never find anything, but if we do, we want you to know as soon as possible.
  • Dry Mouth Treatment – Dry mouth is a chronic condition for some patients, which can increase the risk of cavities and periodontal disease. We can recommend special toothpaste and mouth rinses to address this condition.

If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant in the future, we want to stress that preventive dental care is important at this time in your life. During pregnancy, hormone changes and diet can increase your risk of some oral health issues. We want you to keep your healthy smile before, during, and after your pregnancy.

Common Questions About General Dentistry

General dental care includes a variety of services. Think of a general dentist like a primary health care provider for your smile. You can receive preventive care from our dentists, including professional cleanings and exams, but we also can treat problems when we find them. Our goal is to keep your mouth as healthy as it can be.

According to national health data, more than 90 percent of people will develop cavities, and conservative estimates indicate that at least 70 percent of people will have gum disease at some time during their lives. Regular dental checkups, along with daily brushing and flossing, will reduce your risk of these problems and help us catch these issues in the early stages.

Dental schools, like medical schools, are four-year programs, but this is just the beginning of our dental education. To maintain a dental license, doctors must complete a specified number of continuing education hours annually. Our doctors go above and beyond those minimums to stay current on the best practices for all our patients at Kirchner Dental of St. Matthews.
