  • Can I drink soda a week after tooth extraction?

    Yes. You can drink and eat pretty much anything a week after. READ MORE

  • How can I tighten loose veneers?

    Hi! Unfortunately, veneers cannot be tightened. They will need to be replaced. Hope that information helps. READ MORE

  • Can dental implants cause heart problems?

    People with periodontal disease or poor dental hygiene may have elevated levels of bacteria in the mouth and possibly the blood. This has been linked to heart disease. These people tend to lose their teeth and may replace them with implants. The implants themselves have no correlation with heart disease. READ MORE

  • How many dental implants can you have?

    It is possible to replace an entire dentition with implants if needed. However, you can usually use 2 implants for every 3-4 teeth that require replacement. To replace 5 teeth in a row, we may use three implants. To replace 5 teeth in different spots you would need 5 individual implants. READ MORE

  • Does Listerine work well?

    Listerine contains alcohol, which works for a time, but is drying to the mouth so it will stop working and feel like you need more. You should use an alcohol-free mouthwash and hydrate well with plain water for a better result. READ MORE

  • Can I scrape plaque off my teeth?

    It is not a good idea to scrape it yourself. Once it is attached, you should have a professional cleaning with sterile instruments. READ MORE

  • How is a bridge attached to the teeth?

    A bridge on natural teeth is cemented on top of two or more support teeth. The missing teeth are replaced by fake teeth that span the space. It looks like natural teeth if done well. The supporting teeth are shaped by being ground down a bit to provide space for the metal and/or porcelain that the bridge is made of. READ MORE

  • What is the difference between an oral surgeon and a dentist?

    Oral surgeons receive several extra years of training in a specialized residency. They have advanced skills in treating trauma and dealing with difficult oral surgical procedures. Many also have an MD degree in conjunction with a DDS or DMD degree. While all dentists are capable of doing tooth extractions, many times they will refer the more involved cases to an oral surgeon. READ MORE

  • What is the best way to treat dental plaque?

    A professional cleaning and scaling by a dentist or hygienist. Followed by brushing twice daily with a rotary toothbrush, floss, flops pics, and alcohol free mouth rinse. READ MORE

  • Braces

    You may be a candidate for Invisalign. Consult with an Orthodontist. READ MORE

  • Can you suggest some way to reduce sensitivity?

    Sensodyne toothpaste works very well READ MORE

  • Why are my gums swollen?

    It sounds like gingivitis or periodontitis. Which is an inflammation of the gums due to plaque and calculus build up. It could also be a minor infection. You should visit your dentist for an exam and X-rays to identify the problem. Periodontitis can be treated and managed if caught early enough.

  • What are the natural ways to deal with tooth sensitivity?

    There is no real need to wait till the end of your pregnancy if you have an active tooth infection. You should treat it now in the second trimester. Just have the Dr. limit the X-rays and ask for two lead aprons, if X-rays are needed. If the tooth needs a root canal, you can have a pulpotomy to alleviate symptoms. It is worse to let it go and run the risk of an abscess and potentially needing an extraction and/or antibiotics. READ MORE

  • Is bleeding of gums dangerous for a diabetic patient?

    Diabetics have a higher rate of gum disease and infection due to reduced ability to heal properly. Bleeding gums are a sign of gingivitis, the early stage of periodontal disease. You should be evaluated by your dentist. Early treatment and proper maintenance of your gums is your best chance to keep your teeth healthy. READ MORE

  • How can I reverse yellowing of my teeth?

    Yellowing can occur from aging, smoking and drinking dark liquids such as coffee,tea and red wine. Start with a Dental Cleaning to remove stains, then whiten with a carbamide peroxide whitener. Maintain whiteness using a whitening toothpaste and touch-up kit. READ MORE

  • Could wisdom tooth extraction cause an infection?

    It could be an infection. It could also be something called a dry socket. It is a painful condition that can be treated by your dentist who will pack a medication in the socket to help it heal faster. A follow up visit to the dentist is recommended. READ MORE

  • How many times should I floss?

    You should be flossing once a day. If you have large spaces where food gets stuck, then floss as often as you need. It will not cause damage. The purpose of flossing is to physically remove plaque from between your teeth. The more you floss the cleaner your mouth will be. READ MORE

  • Does switching toothpaste matter?

    Not really. As long as the toothpaste contains fluoride there is no reason to alternate brands. READ MORE

  • How often will I have to replace my braces?

    Hi. Your orthodontist will be adjusting the braces and changing the wires and bands periodically. Probably every month or so. Depending on how long your treatment is (usually 24 months) they will be tightened frequently. The orthodontist may also add brackets, wires and different elastics during the course of treatment. Thanks for you question. READ MORE

  • I wear my retainer, so why are my teeth still shifting?

    I do not specialize in orthodontics, however I will try to answer. You may need to be wearing your retainer for more hours each day. You should have it checked to make sure it is fitting properly and is tight enough to prevent movement. Teeth will try to move back to the original positions after the braces come off, so an accurate fitting retainer is important. Hope that helps.
