Compared to traditional x-rays, digital x-rays are safer for patients and provide higher-resolution images for your dentist to examine
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Most patients have their teeth cleaned twice a year.
Fillings and crowns are used to replace damaged tooth structure or provide coverage or strength to a tooth.
Oral cancer screenings help our team look for signs of cancer in your mouth. During a screening, we will examine the lining of your floor and roof of your mouth, cheeks, gums, lips, and tongue for any abnormalities.
Gum disease therapy includes deep cleaning above and below the gum line as well as possible treatment with antibiotics, surgery, or guided tissue regeneration.
Root canals are treatments to repair and save badly damaged teeth and involve cleaning the canals inside the tooth’s root. Root canals provide an alternative to tooth extraction.
TMJ and TMD are painful conditions that affect your jaw. Possible treatments include mouth guards, medication, physical therapy, and surgery.
Dental Care for the Whole Family
Family Dentistry
Invisalign treatments are an alternative to traditional braces and help straighten your child’s teeth in less time with less discomfort.
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings that shield the surface of back teeth from cavity-causing bacteria.
When you start taking your children to the dentist from a young age, it’s best if you keep bringing them to the same dental office. We recommend bringing your child in by their second birthday so they become familiar with our friendly dental team in Omaha. This makes it easier when you start bringing them in for routine dental cleanings.
Your Solution for Missing or Damaged Teeth
Implants
Dental implants are a solution for missing or broken teeth, giving you back a natural smile that is easy to take care of. The team at Eagle Run coordinates implant cases with an experienced oral surgeon. Results are permanent, help you maintain your bone health, and return your smile to normal.
Why consider an Implant
Wondering if a dental implant is the right solution for you? Here are some of their benefits:
- They feel and look more natural than dentures or bridges
- Durable and long-lasting
- Easier to eat with
- Improved oral health because they’re much easier to care for than dentures
- Speaking is easier as implants won’t move around like dentures

Straighten your Smile with Invisalign
If you’ve always wanted to straighten your teeth but don’t want the hassle or appearance of braces as an adult, Invisalign might be the right option for you. Invisalign’s® invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners will give you the beautiful straight teeth you’ve always wanted. And best of all, no one can tell you’re wearing them. As one of our more popular dental services in Omaha, Invisalign is great for adults and teenagers.
Invisalign Process:
- You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
- As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move little by little, week by week, until they have straightened to their final position.
- You'll visit us about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
- Total treatment time averages 9 - 15 months and the average number of aligners during treatment is between 18 - 30, but both will vary from case to case.
Create a Brighter Smile
Stained and discolored teeth are a part of life. If you want a brighter smile, we have a quick, affordable solution. Eagle Run West Dental Group provides teeth whitening services in Omaha to help you achieve a whiter smile in just one dental visit. There are many causes of tooth discoloration. The most common include aging and consumption of teeth-staining substances such as coffee, tea, colas, tobacco, red wine, etc. During tooth formation, consumption of tetracycline, certain antibiotics, or excessive fluoride may also cause tooth discoloration.
Save Your Tooth with Root Canal Therapy
Endodontics
Root canal therapy is necessary when a tooth is infected and will not heal on its own. Symptoms include pain when biting and chewing, sensitivity with hot and cold, or constant aching and discomfort. A lot of people are intimidated when they hear the word “root canal”, but at our office, there is no need to be afraid.
Dr. Bob and Dr. Shar have both been performing this procedure for many years and you will be surprised at how easy and painless it is. Most general dentists will refer you to an Endodontic specialist, and in some complex cases we may need to refer you to an Endodontist too, but the majority of the time we can take care of this problem for you. This will save you time, extra doctor’s visits, and usually even a little money!
Do you need a root canal?
Infection of the tooth is typically caused by deep decay of the inside of a tooth, a crack or chip in the tooth, or repeated dental procedures. If left untreated, swelling of the pulp may lead to prolonged, severe pain or the formation of an abscess. Spread of the infection is possible and can lead to further complications, such as tooth extraction.
Symptoms indicating the need for root canal therapy normally include:
- Deep decay of the tooth
- Darkening of the gums
- Swollen gums
- Pain when chewing
- Extreme sensitivity to hot or cold
Dentures/Partials
Dentures and partials are removable replacements for missing and extracted teeth that closely resemble natural teeth and gums. We understand the emotional effect of the appearance of your smile, especially when you have teeth missing, so going even a day without a denture or partial is very uncomfortable. Whether you need an old appliance replaced, or you need to be fit for your first, we have an excellent lab right here in Omaha that will work with us to get your appliance as quickly as possible, usually within a few days.
Benefits & Longevity
Dentures are beneficial for patients who have experienced a total or partial loss of teeth due to gum disease, tooth decay, or injury. Dentures may also help to improve chewing and speech, fill out the appearance of the face, and rebuild your smile. Full dentures can last anywhere between 5-10 years, while partials have an expectancy of about 15 years. Dentures and partials can change over time, leading to an improper fit or unattractive appearance. Dentures will need to be relined, rebased, or remade depending on any needed modifications. Our dentists in Omaha will work closely with you to determine which type of dentures are right for your specific needs and recommend having your dentures checked at least once a year or at the earliest sign of irritation.
