Three months ago, a patient walked into my Henderson office carrying a CPAP machine in a grocery bag. He set it on the counter and said, “I can’t do this anymore. I’ve tried for two years, and I just can’t sleep with this thing on my face.” He looked exhausted – dark circles under his…
Last month, a patient walked into my Henderson office visibly nervous. Her regular dentist had just told her she needed a “deep cleaning” instead of her usual six-month cleaning. She was confused, worried about the cost, and honestly questioning whether it was really necessary or just an expensive upsell. I see this reaction almost daily….
You’ve noticed it for weeks now. Maybe months. That pink tinge in the sink when you brush. The way your gums look darker, puffier than they used to. That metallic taste that lingers even after mouthwash. And you keep asking yourself the same question: Is this serious? I’m Dr. Gregg Hendrickson, and in my 20+…

Other times, it’s microscopic cracks in your enamel or damage…
Your dentist just quoted prices for two different crown options – porcelain crowns and zirconia crowns – with a significant cost difference between them. You’re staring at treatment plans, wondering if the pricier option really lasts longer, or if you’re just paying for marketing hype. I’ve watched this scenario unfold countless times in Las Vegas…
Your dental crown has served you well for years, but lately you notice it feels different when you bite down. Maybe the edge seems rough against your tongue, or your floss catches in a spot that used to be smooth. I’ve observed that most patients don’t think about whether they should replace dental crowns until…
Your molar has a crack running through the filling you got ten years ago. The tooth doesn’t hurt constantly, just when you bite down on something firm. Your dentist shows you the x-ray and mentions two options: a dental onlay or a crown. Both cost over a thousand dollars, and you’re wondering what the actual…
