Dental Care Close to Home for Wildwood Families

A general dentist who can manage most needs under one roof saves time and keeps your care consistent. Dr. Matt Howard, D.D.S., has practiced since 2001 and brings experience in implantology, prosthodontics, and oral surgery. That range means many patients can complete multiple stages of care without bouncing between separate offices.



Our office keeps the atmosphere relaxed and friendly. Everyone on our team learns your name, explains procedures clearly, and keeps you informed at every stage of your visit.

Dental Implants for Wildwood Residents

Implants are one of the most durable ways to replace missing teeth. Treatment usually follows these stages:

1. Consultation and imaging to evaluate jawbone health and plan your treatment
2. Implant placement under local anesthesia
3. Osseointegration, the healing phase in which the implant fuses with surrounding bone over several months
4. Abutment and crown or denture placement to complete your new tooth

Single-tooth implants are the most common choice, while implant-supported dentures provide a more stable alternative to traditional removable dentures for patients missing a full arch.

Urgent Dental Care When Problems Cannot Wait

A dental emergency is any sudden change that causes pain, instability, or visible damage. Call our office promptly if you notice:

• A loose crown, abutment, or implant
• Sharp or throbbing pain around a tooth or implant site
• Swelling, tenderness, or discharge near the gum line
• A crown that has come off completely
• Damage to a tooth or implant after a fall or sports injury

Same-day emergency service is available for urgent concerns. Early attention often leads to simpler, more predictable outcomes.

Common Roofing Problems in Springfield

Roofs endure constant wear from sun, storms, wind, rain, and time. Even small issues can quickly grow into major headaches if left untreated. Some of the most common problems we see in Springfield include:

• Shingles curling, cracking, or missing entirely
• Leaks in metal, shingle, TPO, or self-adhering modified roofs
• Water damage affecting decking, attics, and interior ceilings
• Fascia and soffit damage that compromises structural stability
• Clogged or overflowing gutters and damaged gutter guards
• Chimney leaks, flashing failures, and pipe boot issues

Many homeowners notice these warning signs but hope they’ll resolve themselves. Unfortunately, small problems often become much more expensive and seriously damaging when ignored.
