Braces
Yes READ MORE
Why are my dental implants sensitive to cold water?
They shouldn’t. Could be a neighbor tooth. READ MORE
Can dentists do gum grafts?
Very few. I would see a periodontist if it were me. READ MORE
Can you get teeth cleaned while wearing braces?
You better get them cleaned while in braces READ MORE
How long does your mouth stay numb after fillings?
It depends on which anesthetic is used. Often, I use one that wears off in less than an hour, though sometimes a stronger one is used, which can last up to 6 hours. READ MORE
Do you have to be put to sleep for tooth extraction?
No. I never put my patients to sleep to do an extraction. Typically, just numbing the area is enough to get the job done. READ MORE
Can flossing cause black triangle teeth?
Typically, not flossing will lead to recession and black triangles. Floss gently, but thoroughly and you should be fine. READ MORE
Can composite bonding fix crooked teeth?
In short, yes, but not very well and not for very long. There are better, and affordable options for fixing crooked teeth, especially you being so young, I would recommend something that will last and not cause you trouble down the road. Thanks. READ MORE
How do you take care of bonded teeth?
If the teeth are bonded properly, caring for them should be like caring for normal teeth. READ MORE
How much denture adhesive should I use?
It depends on how well your denture fits. If you feel like you need a lot, you might need a new denture. Most adhesives have good instructions on how much should be sufficient. Thanks. READ MORE
Should an abscessed tooth be pulled?
Not always, sometimes other things can be done to save the tooth. Thanks. READ MORE
Can Invisalign damage teeth?
That’s a good question, it is very safe for your teeth. All it does is move the position of the teeth within the bone, it does not alter the actual teeth just their placement. READ MORE
Can I rinse my mouth with hydrogen peroxide?
Don’t rinse with pour hydrogen peroxide. Mix it at least by half with water or mouthwash. READ MORE
Can I get a filling without a root canal?
It depends on how deep the filling is. If the cavity is to the nerve, a root canal is typical treatment to save the tooth. READ MORE
When can you eat after a filling?
Depends if you are numb. For traditional fillings there is no set wait time, but I usually tell my patients to wait until they are not numb so as to not bite the lip or tongue. READ MORE
How does a child get a tooth extraction under anesthesia?
Typically, I do all extractions under local anesthesia. The way I do the extractions removes the trauma to the patient. READ MORE
I have a gap between my two teeth. Why?
It depends on a few factors, especially your age from when you 1st noticed it until your current age. Sometimes braces can correct it and sometimes they can't. Sometimes there's a muscle attachment that comes to low between your front teeth and it creates pressure against the teeth, making it difficult to keep them together. A minor surgery might be required to give you the full results you would be happy with. READ MORE
