Cantrell West Dental was the FIRST practice in Arkansas to offer FASTBRACES®, a truly revolutionary orthodontic treatment which allows most patients to receive complete orthodontic care generally in half the normal time and at half the cost of conventional orthodontics. Dr. Deems is the only Senior Master Affiliate in Arkansas. Contact us today for a free consultation.

Cantrell West Dental is one of the 5% of all dental practices nationally to utilize LASER technology for easier, less painful, and more effective periodontal (gum) treatments that are faster healing, last longer, and require fewer antibiotics. Laser technology also provides significant and rapid relief by treating canker sores, herpes outbreaks, and denture sores more quickly and efficiently, and can be used for a variety of other soft tissue treatments.

Dr. Deems is certified in performing the Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique, a scalpel-free, suture-free, graft-free treatment option for receding gums and saving teeth. Since there is no cutting or stitching, patients can expect minimal post-operative symptoms (pain, swelling and bleeding), and are pleasantly surprised by the instant cosmetic improvement. No more open wounds and lengthy discomfort associated with similar procedures! Most patients are able to resume light normal activities after 24-48 hours.
