What We Offer

A personalized and comfortable dental care

Cavity

Cavities, also known as tooth decay or dental caries, are one of the most common dental problems affecting patients of all ages. If left untreated, cavities can lead to pain, infection, and even tooth loss. At the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon in North Miami, Florida, we provide effective, gentle treatments to restore your oral health and prevent future decay.

What Causes Cavities?

Cavities form when plaque—a sticky film of bacteria—builds up on your teeth. These bacteria feed on sugars from food and drinks, producing acids that weaken and break down tooth enamel over time. Without proper oral hygiene and routine dental care, cavities can develop and progress quickly.

Signs You May Have a Cavity:

  • Tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods

  • Visible holes or dark spots on the tooth

  • Toothache or pain when chewing

  • Bad breath or a persistent bad taste in the mouth

How Dr. Salmon Treats Cavities

Dr. Salmon uses advanced techniques and modern materials to treat cavities with comfort and precision. Depending on the severity of the decay, treatment options may include:

  • Tooth-Colored Fillings: For small to moderate cavities, Dr. Salmon removes the decayed area and restores the tooth with a durable, natural-looking filling that blends with your smile.

  • Dental Crowns: If the decay is extensive, a crown may be placed over the tooth to protect and strengthen it.

  • Root Canal Therapy: If the decay has reached the tooth’s nerve, Dr. Salmon can perform a root canal to remove the infection and save the tooth.

  • Preventive Care: Along with treatment, Dr. Salmon will guide you on proper oral hygiene and preventive steps to avoid future cavities.

Gentle, Personalized Dental Care

With over 31 years of experience, Dr. Dwight Salmon is committed to providing gentle, high-quality care tailored to your needs. Whether you’re experiencing discomfort or just want to stay ahead of dental issues, you can trust our North Miami dental office for compassionate, expert care.

Braces

Straighten Your Smile with Braces in North Miami

Personalized Orthodontic Treatment with Dr. Dwight Salmon

If you’re looking to achieve a straighter, healthier smile, braces are a proven and effective solution for both teens and adults. At the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon, we offer expert orthodontic care in North Miami, helping patients align their teeth, improve bite function, and boost confidence.

With over 31 years of experience, Dr. Salmon provides customized treatment plans designed to meet your individual dental needs and goals—always with your comfort and long-term oral health in mind.


Why Choose Braces?

Braces do more than enhance the appearance of your smile—they also correct dental and jaw alignment issues that can lead to long-term problems such as:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth

  • Gaps between teeth

  • Overbites, underbites, or crossbites

  • Jaw pain or speech difficulties

  • Difficulty chewing or cleaning teeth properly

Correcting these issues not only improves your smile but also supports better oral hygiene and reduces the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.


Types of Braces Offered

Dr. Salmon provides a range of orthodontic solutions based on your needs, lifestyle, and preferences. Options may include:

  • Traditional Metal Braces: Reliable and effective for correcting complex alignment issues. Today’s metal braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever before.

  • Clear or Ceramic Braces: A discreet option that blends with your natural teeth, ideal for patients who want a less noticeable treatment.

  • Orthodontic Consultations: Not sure which treatment is right for you or your child? Dr. Salmon will walk you through your options during a personalized consultation.


Why Patients Trust Dr. Salmon for Braces in North Miami

  • 31+ years of dental and orthodontic experience

  • Individualized care and attention for every patient

  • Comfortable office environment and a caring, long-standing team

  • Convenient location in North Miami, serving surrounding communities

Fillings

Tooth-Colored Fillings in North Miami

Restore Your Smile with Natural-Looking, Durable Dental Fillings

Cavities and minor tooth damage are common, but they don’t have to affect the way your smile looks or feels. At the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon in North Miami, Florida, we provide tooth-colored dental fillings that are both strong and aesthetically pleasing—so you can maintain a healthy, beautiful smile with confidence.

With over 31 years of experience, Dr. Salmon is known for his gentle, precise approach to dental care, offering restorative treatments that look natural and last for years.


What Are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings are used to restore teeth that have been damaged by decay, small fractures, or wear. Once the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is removed, a filling is placed to rebuild and protect the tooth’s structure.

At our office, we use composite resin fillings that are carefully matched to the color of your natural teeth—making them an ideal solution for patients who want durability without sacrificing appearance.


Benefits of Tooth-Colored Fillings:

  • Blend seamlessly with your natural teeth

  • Preserve more of your healthy tooth structure

  • Harden quickly and provide long-lasting protection

  • Free from metal and mercury

  • Ideal for front or back teeth


Do You Need a Filling?

You may need a dental filling if you experience:

  • Tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweets

  • Visible holes or discoloration on a tooth

  • A chipped or broken tooth

  • Mild to moderate tooth pain

  • A previously placed metal filling that has worn down

Dr. Salmon will perform a thorough examination using modern diagnostic tools to determine the best treatment option for your situation.


Why Choose Dr. Salmon for Fillings in North Miami?

  • Over 31 years of trusted experience in general and restorative dentistry

  • Gentle, patient-focused care in a welcoming environment

  • Advanced materials and techniques for long-lasting results

  • A dedicated dental team that treats you like family

Prevention

Prevention: Saving Your Teeth for a Lifetime

Protect Your Smile with Preventive Dental Care in North Miami

At the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon, we believe the best dental care starts with prevention. By identifying issues early and maintaining healthy habits, we help our patients avoid costly and painful dental problems down the road. Our goal is simple: to preserve your natural teeth and keep your smile strong, healthy, and beautiful for life.

With over 31 years of experience in North Miami, Dr. Salmon has helped generations of patients protect their oral health through compassionate, proactive care.


Why Preventive Dentistry Matters

Preventive care is the foundation of a healthy smile. Many serious dental issues—such as cavities, gum disease, tooth loss, and infections—can be avoided with regular checkups and early intervention.

By staying ahead of problems, you’ll save time, money, and your natural teeth.


Our Preventive Dental Services Include:

  • Comprehensive Exams & Digital X-Rays
    Detect issues early, including cavities, bone loss, or hidden decay.

  • Professional Cleanings
    Remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing alone can’t reach.

  • Gum Disease Screenings & Treatment
    Catch early signs of gingivitis and protect your gums from damage.

  • Fluoride Treatments
    Strengthen enamel and reduce your risk of cavities—especially important for children and cavity-prone adults.

  • Dental Sealants
    A protective barrier applied to back teeth to prevent decay.

  • Oral Hygiene Education
    Personalized guidance on brushing, flossing, and diet to help you maintain a healthy smile at home.


A Lifetime of Healthy Smiles Starts Here

Dr. Salmon and his long-standing team take pride in building strong relationships with each patient. We take the time to educate, answer questions, and create custom prevention plans based on your needs, lifestyle, and risk factors.


Schedule Your Preventive Checkup Today

Don’t wait for a problem to appear—protect your teeth before issues arise. Contact the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon in North Miami to schedule your exam and experience dental care focused on prevention, not just treatment.

Root Canals

Gentle Root Canal Treatment in North Miami

Relieve Pain. Save Your Tooth. Restore Your Smile.

If you’re experiencing tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling, you may need a root canal—a safe and effective treatment that can save your natural tooth and eliminate infection. At the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon, we provide gentle, precise root canal therapy in North Miami, helping patients get out of pain and back to smiling with confidence.

With over 31 years of experience, Dr. Salmon combines advanced techniques and a compassionate approach to make the root canal process as comfortable and stress-free as possible.


What Is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a procedure used to remove infected or inflamed pulp (the soft tissue inside your tooth), clean out the root canals, and seal the tooth to prevent future infection. It’s often the last step before a tooth would need to be extracted—making it a critical way to preserve your natural smile.


Signs You Might Need a Root Canal:

  • Persistent toothache or throbbing pain

  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers

  • Swollen or tender gums near the affected tooth

  • A darkened or discolored tooth

  • A pimple or bump on the gum (possible abscess)

  • Pain when chewing or touching the tooth

If you experience any of these symptoms, don’t wait—early treatment can prevent the spread of infection and protect surrounding teeth.


What to Expect During Treatment

Dr. Salmon performs root canal therapy with precision and care, using modern tools and local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Here’s how it works:

  1. Diagnosis – Digital X-rays and an exam confirm the need for a root canal.

  2. Treatment – The infected tissue is removed, the area is cleaned, and the root canals are filled and sealed.

  3. Restoration – In most cases, a dental crown is placed to protect and restore full function to the treated tooth.

Most patients report that root canal treatment feels no more uncomfortable than getting a filling.


Why Choose Dr. Salmon for Root Canals in North Miami?

  • Over 31 years of experience in complex and routine dental procedures

  • Gentle, patient-first care with a focus on preserving your natural teeth

  • Modern technology and materials for lasting results

  • A trusted, long-standing team that puts your comfort first

Extraction

Tooth Extractions in North Miami

Gentle, Professional Care When You Need It Most

While preserving your natural teeth is always our goal, there are times when a tooth extraction is the best option for protecting your overall oral health. At the office of Dr. Dwight Salmon, we provide safe and comfortable tooth extractions in North Miami, using a gentle approach to make the experience as stress-free as possible.

With over 31 years of trusted dental experience, Dr. Salmon is skilled in both simple and surgical extractions, always prioritizing your comfort, safety, and long-term dental wellness.


When Is a Tooth Extraction Needed?

Tooth extractions may be necessary for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Severe decay or infection that can’t be treated with a filling or root canal

  • Advanced gum disease that causes tooth loosening

  • Crowded teeth needing removal to prepare for orthodontic treatment

  • Impacted wisdom teeth that are painful, infected, or damaging nearby teeth

  • Broken or fractured teeth that cannot be restored

Before recommending an extraction, Dr. Salmon will perform a thorough exam and explore all possible alternatives.


Our Extraction Process

Dr. Salmon and his team take great care to make extractions as easy and comfortable as possible. Here’s what you can expect:

  1. Evaluation and X-Rays – We assess the tooth and surrounding bone to determine the best treatment approach.

  2. Local Anesthesia – The area is fully numbed to minimize discomfort. Sedation options may also be available for anxious patients.

  3. Gentle Removal – The tooth is carefully removed using advanced tools and techniques.

  4. Post-Extraction Care – We provide detailed aftercare instructions to support healing and avoid complications like dry socket.


Tooth Replacement Options

If your extraction leaves a gap, Dr. Salmon offers several options for tooth replacement, including:

  • Dental Implants

  • Dental Bridges

  • Partial Dentures

We’ll discuss your best options to restore both function and appearance after an extraction.


Why Choose Dr. Salmon for Tooth Extractions in North Miami?

  • 31+ years of experience in general and surgical dentistry

  • A gentle, reassuring approach to patient care

  • State-of-the-art technology and modern techniques

  • Trusted by generations of families in the North Miami community
