How long is the recovery for a wisdom tooth extraction?
Hello, There is no definite answer. Sometimes it will be sore and the patient is fine by that night. Other times, a patient can be out for several days. It really depends on how intense the surgery to remove the tooth was and each patient's pain threshold and healing ability. Owen M. Waldman, DMD READ MORE
Should I go get my root canal done by a specialist?
It's completely up to you. Most root canals are performed by general dentists, but if it's a particularly difficult case, the general dentist will likely refer to a specialist. As I said, it depends on your comfort level. If you have confidence in your dentist to do it and he/she feels they are skilled enough, then go for it. On the other hand, if you do feel more comfortable going to a specialist, then I would go that route. Owen M. Waldman, DMD READ MORE

What is the earliest age someone can get braces?
I would seek a consult with an orthodontist. Braces can be put on at a fairly early age, but it really depends on several factors and each individual case. Seeing an orthodontist for a consult would be the best option concerning your son. Owen M. Waldman, DMD READ MORE
